The Peremptory Casey Davies

Chapter 17 It Turned Out to be Him!

The second Edith saw the Heart of Venus, her eyes grew wide. She had admired this necklace for a

long time, and she was almost certain that this was the exact one on TV.

How did Casey have such an expensive necklace?

And shouldn't it be the master of TY Manor to come meet her? Why was Casey here? Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Even now, Edith still did not realize that Casey was the master of TY Manor.

Casey held the necklace and walked towards Edith. He had prepared so long for this day, to repay

Edith for all the grievances she had suffered over the years.

As Casey approached her, Edith subconsciously took two steps back.

"You... don't come over, first, tell me, what’s going on? Casey, I know you want to make me happy, but

you can't do something illegal." Edith said nervously.

She suddenly suspected that Casey might have stolen the necklace.

Casey burst into laughter; to think that Edith thought that he had done something illegal to get this

necklace.

"I didn't break the law. I bought this necklace. As for this manor... my friend let me borrow it. I wanted to

surprise you by using his name." Casey said lightly.

He originally wanted to say that TY Manor was also his, but considering that Edith might not be able to

accept the news, he said instead that the master TY Manor was a friend.

"Why would I lie to you? If I really did do something illegal, I won't even be here in TY Manor." Casey

added.

Edith was not stupid, even though she still had trouble accepting all of this, and she couldn’t help to

think that Casey might have illegally used the castle of TY Manor.

But the entire venue had obviously been arranged very carefully. Casey would definitely not have been

able to pull it off without permission from the master of TY Manor.

And it was the staff of TY Manor who led her here, so Casey must have planned all of this.

If these were true, then Casey may actually have bought that Venus necklace.

Although she had been indifferent to Casey in recent years, they have been together long enough for

her to know Casey's personality quite well. She knew that he would not be stupid enough to do

something illegal just for a necklace.

As these thoughts raced through her mind, Edith started to feel uneasy.

It turned out that Casey was not as useless as she thought. This man, a good-for-nothing in public, was

probably putting on an act.

But because of him, she suffered through so many grievances. In the past few years, she had to

endure harsh stares from others, and silently bore all their criticism...

As she thought of this, all of Edith's repressed grievance burst out instantly, and her nose began to

sting.

Tears formed in her eyes, and she bit her lip; the sight of her would make anyone pity her.

Casey didn't expect Edith to act like this, and he was at a loss. He stepped forward and wanted to pass

the Heart of Venus to Edith. He saw Edith staring at the necklace that day, so Casey knew that if Edith

got this necklace, she would definitely be very overjoyed.

Edith stretched out her hand and pushed Casey away, as tears streamed out uncontrollably.

"Casey, you have been lying to me, right? You’re not what everyone says, right?" Edith asked.

Casey sighed, but did not deny it.

"Do you know how much I have suffered because of you these past few years?"

"Do you know how painful it was for me to hear all those people talking about me?"

"I had to put up with their icy gazes everyday..."

Edith became more and more hysterical, releasing all her pent up emotions from the past few years.

Casey listened carefully to Edith's words and said anything, then he reached out and took Edith into his

arms.

Edith did not resist, but leaned on Casey's shoulder and cried.

"I promise you that I will never let anything like that happen to you again in the future. I told you, I would

change for you." Casey said firmly.

Edith didn’t say anything. At this moment, she realized that she had a shoulder to depend on.

After a while, Edith calmed down and glanced at Casey with a bit of resentment.

Casey laughed at Edith, then walked behind her and put the Heart of Venus on her neck.

At this moment, countless pink petals rained from above. Casey and Edith were like a pair of statues

frozen in place, and the picturesque setting was incredibly romantic.

"Do you like it?" Casey said softly.

Edith stared at the Heart of Venus on her neck, and a sense of satisfaction arose in her heart.

Never had she imagined that this precious necklace would be around her neck.

"I like it."

...

In the garden of TY Manor.

Nyla stood by the edge of the pool, filled with anger. The murderous look in her eyes was deadly

enough to kill all the fish in the pool.

"Humph, I thought the master of TY Manor was my future husband. Turns out to be a mistake, but now

that I think about it, my real future husband would be able to buy this TY Manor with any random

antique he gifts me. The master of TY Manor can't even compare to my future husband at all."

Nyla made a vow to herself. Now, she was quite certain that the person who sent gifts to the Patel

family and the master of TY Manor was not the same person.

"Besides, the master of TY manor must have poor taste. He must be blind to fancy a married woman

like Edith."

Since she lost her dignity at TY Manor today, Nyla secretly blacklisted the master of TY Manor.

Edith was also on her blacklist. When she becomes married into a wealthy family in the future, she

would definitely exact revenge on those on her blacklist.

"You’re absolutely right. TY Manor’s master must be out of his mind to pick Edith." Albie chimed in, "It

seems that my speculations that day was correct. Edith must have some dirty secrets with the master

of TY Manor, otherwise, why else would they be willing to lend the venue."

"Humph, no wonder Casey didn’t dare show up today. He probably knew Edith was going to cheat on

him, so he just chose to hide. This fool is really useless to tolerate Edith." Nyla said viciously.

"Fools like Casey are infamous for their worthlessness; even if Edith cheated on him, what can he do?"

Albie said.

Nyla still had a frown on her face: "Today that slut Edith really showed off. If it weren't for her, I wouldn’t

have been so embarrassed."

A sinister smile crept onto Albie’s face as he said, "Don't worry, even if she is in the limelight today, I

will make her miserable."

"She’s the one in charge of today’s exhibition. If an antique goes missing, grandpa will definitely hold

her responsible. The person I arranged for will be here soon."
