The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 87

Both Amara and Nicolas were stunned. They didn’t expect that Edith would be willing to make such an incredible sacrifice.

"What a girl! You even dare to refute my decision, huh?" Amara was irritated with her chest heaving.

Edith didn’t regret for what she had said. She then said to Amara sincerely, "Mom, I just thought you were too mean if you do that to him. If you still insist that he should sleep in the basement, I would rather move out to live with him."

Casey was moved when seeing Edith argue with her mom for his sake.

Amara jumped up and glared at Casey, "I can’t believe what you have done to delude my daughter. You can still live in my house, but I will drive you out one day."

Then she thumped the chopsticks on table and went back to the room as she had no mood to continue with meal.

Nicolas also glared at Casey with great disdain, "How dare you delude my daughter, such a trash. I can’t believe we are shit out of luck to have you stay in my house!"

Then he also went back to the room.

Though Nicolas was still a bit hungry, he didn’t dare to stay for food since Amara had left. He still needed to avoid her anger.

Edith and Casey looked at each other. He couldn’t help smiling gratefully.

Edith sighed, "I am so sorry. My mom is really unreasonable. She even wants you to stay in that shabby basement!"

Casey replied with a smile, ‘It’s okay. Since your mom hates me for staying here, we could just buy another new house and move out."

Edith hesitated, "Well, but you know the housing price has been mounting. Even a one-bedroom apartment would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Though I have a sizeable salary and we can apply for mortgage, we still couldn’t afford the down payment."

"Don’t worry about that. Let me handle the house. We will go to see some apartments later." Casey said.

Edith nodded as she knew Casey still owned some money. Though they had spent a lot during these days, they might still be able to afford the down payment.

Even the two watches were worth a sizeable sum of money.

‘Well, perhaps he has planned for a one-bedroom apartment located at a suburban area. But it should be enough for both of us. We can buy a better one when we earn enough in the future.’ Edith murmured to herself in her mind.

However, Casey was considering buying a duplex apartment or a villa in the downtown area. As for that kind of one-bedroom apartments, he didn’t even think about it. From his point of view, Edith deserved the best in all aspects.

Because of the argument, Amara had been mean to Casey for a few days. She even left a great mess for Casey to clean up.

Casey didn’t argue with her. He was quite aware of her bad temper. If he chose to clean up the house silently, it would be a better refutation of her trick.

However, Amara could do nothing but to complain about him because of the favor of Edith.

Amara repeated asking Casey when to buy a new house almost every single day and then mocked him for bragging about himself. She teased him harshly, saying that he couldn’t even survive once he moved out, let alone buying his own house.

Casey didn’t refute. It took time to buy another house, so he planned to see the house himself together with Edith. Once he bought the house, Amara would naturally shut up.

At weekend, both Amara and Nicolas went out to play mahjong. Casey finally had time to avoid being bothered.

Edith also rested at home as she didn’t need to work today.

Casey had planned to go for a house tour with Edith. But Edith proposed to go for a house tour next week because she was too tired due to heavy work load. So Casey made her rest at home and massaged her.

Edith fancied the dishes cooked by Casey. So Casey went to buy food in the supermarket.

When he returned home, Edith wasn’t at the parlor. He thought she might go back to the bedroom, so he placed the food in the kitchen and went to the bathroom.

When he was about to open the door of the bathroom, the door was opened from the inside. Then he saw Diana standing in with her body wrapped around by a towel.

Casey was stunned as he hadn’t expected Diana would take a bath in his bathroom.

Neither did Diana notice that Casey would appear in front of the door. When she collected herself, she immediately cast an affectionate look at Casey.

She just finished a bath with her naked body wrapped by a towel. Her hairs were still wet. She deemed herself the sexiest woman in the world at this moment.

She had been missing Casey during these days though she was aware that Casey was the husband of her best friend, Edith. She still failed to get rid of the desire but drowned herself in it.

So she wanted Casey’s attention as soon as she saw him.
