The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 631

In the next morning.

Casey was awake, but he didn't get up. Instead, he lay on the sofa with his eyes closed, having a rest while thinking about his plan.

At this moment, Annabel sat up and stretched herself lazily. She had long not had such a sound sleep.

After getting out of bed, Annabel quietly came close to the sofa. Seeing that Casey's eyes were closed, she thought that he was still asleep.

"Humph, you were so stubborn. You deserve to sleep on such a hard sofa. I was so generous that I agreed to share a bed with you, but you should not cherish it. Stupid!"

As she murmured, she pulled the blanked for Casey.

Then she came close to the bed, took a watch from the table and stared at it for a long time with reluctance.

"That bastard needs to buy a mobile phone. I can only sell you. I hope that I can find a good host for you today. You can't be with me in the future anymore." Annabel spoke to herself.

These days, Annabel and Casey lived in Christine's home. It took a lot of money to live and get a doctor for Casey.

Besides, Annabel clearly knew the situation of Christine's family, knowing that they couldn't afford to support two more people. Therefore, at the very beginning, she sold some of her jewelry and gave a sum of money to Herman. Otherwise, they might have been driven out.

After that, to help Casey recover from his injuries, she needed to get something like nutrient solution. Besides, a wheelchair was also needed. Annabel bought all of them with the money she got from selling her jewelry.

When her mobile phone was dropped into the sea, it had been broken. And she was not in the habit of taking a bank card with her. Therefore, she could only support their life in this way.

The pieces of jewelry she sold were her favorite. In the past, she spent a lot of money on them. Now, in this strange place, she could only sell them at a very low price.

This watch was the last thing she had. She didn't know what to do after using the money got from selling it.

At this moment, Casey secretly opened his eyes and looked at Annabel, feeling puzzled. Annabel spoke in a low voice, so he didn't hear what she was muttering.

Before long, Annabel was ready and left with that watch.

Casey wanted to know what Annabel went out for. Therefore, not long after she left, he hurriedly got up and followed her to the center of Q City.

They had been Q City for a long time. Casey had just been to the wharf for a few times. In the rest of the time, he had been staying at Christine's home. It was the first time for him to go to the center of Q City.

As a relatively remote coastal city, Q City didn't develop very well. However, although it was a small city, it had all the facilities a city should have. Besides, because of the wharf, the trade had developed quite well. Therefore, people here lived a life nearly as good as people in other places.

Annabel came to a pawnbroker's shop in the center of the city. After hesitating for a while, she went in with that watch.

The pawnbroker was a middle-aged man in his forties. He wore a mustache and looked a little cunning.

At this moment, he was sitting at a table and leisurely basking in the sun by the window with a teapot in his hand.
