The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 28

Casey Davies shook his head as he watched Amara Stevens look like she'd suffered a great loss.

He didn't care though, it was just a TV, he didn't usually watch TV. If he wanted, he can buy the whole appliance store.

Then, Edith Patel came, and Amara Stevens immediately greeted her with a smile.

"Oh Edith, you're so nice to us, you bought us such an expensive TV, your father and I are so happy." Amara Stevens said.

"Yes, our daughter is very promising. As parents, we are very happy." Nicolas Patel added.

Amara Stevens looked confused. It was not her who bought this TV.

"Mom..." Edith Patel tried to explain.

"Edith, I know you are filial. You’re my daughter and we don’t need to say thanks to family. We are so blessed to have you as our daughter, unlike that loser Casey Davies who lives off our family and never made any contributions to the family."

Amara Stevens interrupted Edith Patel and continued, "This TV you bought us is so expensive, we can't let Casey Davies touch it. I'd be heartbroken if it got broken."

"Mum, this TV..." Edith Patel got a bit anxious, Casey Davies bought this TV, it would be bullying if they don’t let Casey Davies touch it.

"Okay Edith, I know what you mean. Okay then, your dad and I will watch TV and you can go back to your room and rest." Amara Stevens didn't give Edith Patel the slightest chance to speak.

After that she even turned to glare at Casey Davies and muttered, "What a loser, my daughter is so good, why did she marry a loser like you."

Edith Patel looked at Casey Davies with an apologetic face.

Casey Davies smiled at her and shrugged off, "Let’s go back to the bedroom."

When they got to the bedroom, Edith Patel pursed her lips, looked at Casey Davies, and said very apologetically, "I'm sorry, you know my mum, it was you who bought that TV."

"It's okay, it's no different whoever bought it, don't be upset by trifles." Casey Davies said.

Then he made his bed on the floor.

"Thanks." Edith Patel was genuinely grateful to Casey Davies this time, Casey Davies had helped her so much these days, without any complaint.

She thought that Casey Davies was doing well enough, how about...letting him sleep on the bed?

Edith Patel's heartbeat sped up at the thought, and her face turned a little red.

If I let him come to bed, will he make a move on me?

And then if he couldn't help and...

Let's wait a little longer, he'll probably crawl into bed himself if he can't help it.

We have been married for so long, and it's reasonable to give myself to him if he really wants...

After a while of random thinking, Edith Patel went to bed and fell asleep quickly.

The next morning, Casey Davies went with Edith Patel to the Patel family house to see Francis Patel and to file a complaint against Albie Patel.

When they got to the door of the community, Casey Davies went to the tacos stall again.

"Two tacos." Casey Davies said.
