The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 89

The salesgirl was stunned when hearing Hunter’s words. She looked at Casey from head to toe, wondering if he could really afford a house here.

But she still asked in a polite way, "Sir, do you really intend to buy a house here? If you do, I will lead you to a house tour right away. If not, I am afraid I still have something more important to deal with."

Casey looked at the salesgirl and replied, "I will buy a duplex house or a villa here. If you believe his nonsense, I am afraid you will then lose a big chance to earn money."

Actually, the salesgirl was quite disappointed when hearing that this man in front of her was Casey Davies as she had heard that Casey was known to all that he was just a wimp supported by Edith. No matter how hard he struggled, no one would believe that he could afford even a house here.

If Casey claimed that he was here to buy an apartment, the salesgirl might still believe it. After all, his wife, Edith Patel, was a member of the Patel family, one of the richest families in this city.

However, Casey claimed that he wanted a duplex house or a villa, which really made her doubt his credibility.

She couldn’t help feeling a bit disdainful against him for his bragging.

Hunter even smiled mockingly when hearing his words. The house and villa in this community would cost at least five to six million dollars. When he still served as a manager in the TY Group, she couldn’t even struggle to afford a villa here, let alone Casey.

He then looked around and exclaimed, "Hey guys, do you see that man standing here? He is the ‘well-known’ good-for-nothing, Casey Davies! He just claimed he was here to buy a villa. What a joke, huh?"

All people in the lobby looked at Casey with disdain. Some of them even laughed out.

"Casey Davies? That wimp supported by the Patel family? How could it be possible that he can afford a villa here? Are you joking me, dude?"

"Jesus, I almost laugh my ass off! I have struggled for so long just to buy an apartment here! That shit even dares to brag about buying a house here! He must be out of his mind."

"Fuck! I would like to see what he is going to do about his brag. What a goddamn crazy bragger!"

"Casey Davies? That’s the wimp you guys always talk about? Look at the rags he wears! I don’t think he can afford a single penny."

Hunter was smug when hearing those gossips. He just achieved his goal to embarrass Casey and waited to see how awkward he would be if he couldn’t afford the house.

Casey frowned, but he didn’t get angry as he had been accustomed to such mockery.

"So are you going to take me for a house tour? If not, I can go for someone else." Casey said to that salesgirl.

Casey nodded without speaking.

If that salesgirl refused to take him to see the house, he would plan to make Charles here buy him one so as to avoid those mockeries.

But the salesgirl was suddenly driven by curiosity. She wanted to see if Casey was just bragging, "Okay, come with me."

She no longer said with respect when knowing the true identity of Casey.

Seeing that Casey still insisted on villas, Hunter followed them with disdain as he also wanted to see what Casey was going to do.

Some of those gossipers also followed to see the upcoming farce.

The salesgirl showed him some models of the duplex houses in the Hazelfield Estate. The houses were all built into four floors. Each two floors were arranged to accommodate a family to live. The space was capacious enough for most families.

"The duplex here costs at least five million eight hundred thousand dollars and seven million for the best. So do you still plan to buy one?" The salesgirl stared at Casey. But she didn’t think he could afford it.

Casey took a glimpse at the floor plan picture and then shook his head, "Though the duplex is spacious enough and it’s equipped with two floors for each family. But I don’t think it’s convenient to accommodate two different families in a single duplex."

Upon hearing that, all onlookers laughed out loud at his exaggerated brag.

"You really make me laugh my ass off. You just said it’s not convenient to accommodate two families in a single house? Why don’t you complain about inconvenience as you are now living in a building accommodating hundreds of people? Are you here to mess around?"

The salesgirl also cast a disdainful look at Casey. She still doubted if Casey was that notorious at the beginning. But now she disdained him even more because of his brag.

"Show me the villa here." Casey said.

The salesgirl didn’t reply and led him to the front of those models of villas.

Those onlookers followed them to expect another bragging of Casey.

"All villas here were built into square shape, family founder with center location in the community. The prices range from seven million to ten million. To be honest, I don’t think you could afford it." The salesgirl said.

"It’s still a bit below my standard. Is there a villa equipped with garden?" Casey asked.

The salesgirl couldn’t help but doubt, "Are you serious? The ordinary villa is expensive enough! Are you going to buy those with gardens, really?"
