The Peremptory Casey Davies

Chapter 135 Take Mr. Davies Back by Order

All the people in the living room were shocked as the silence descended the villa.

Francis swallowed and stumbled to take the invitation, saying in a thrilled tone, "Please tell Mr. Hugo

that I feel appreciative to be invited to his family dinner." The man in suit nodded and left the villa.

All eyes were on Casey as it was surprising to find the Grey family sent an invitation here.

"Is it because of Casey? How could he ask the Grey family to do this? It's said the Grey family has

finished sending invitations," someone said.

Edith looked at Casey in surprise, not knowing how he made it. She was sure that he hadn't left the

villa. Did he call the Grey family to send the invitation?

"It has nothing to do with Casey. I just watched him and found him standing there doing nothing special.

So, I'm sure the Grey family sends the invitation out of respect for us," Albie said.

"Of course. It doesn't make sense if he's the reason that we've got the invitation. He contributes nothing

here," lots of people agreed.

Casey took out his phone and shook it, explaining, "Wake up, morons! It's 21st century, and they came

here to send the invitations due to my phone call."

Albie rolled his eyes. "Save it! It's impossible you've got their number. Don't you remember what did

you do to the Young Master Gray?"

"Yep. The Gray family won't treat you well as you pissed them off yesterday. How dare you!"

"They invite us to the dinner for our enhanced power."

…

Casey was too disappointed to explain as they'd never trust him.

Francis felt much better as the Gray family's invitation lit up his day, and he didn't care about Casey at

all.

"Grandpa, it has nothing to do with Casey," Albie told Francis.

Francis nodded. "Of course, we're no less than other families. Obviously, the Gray family wants to

make friends with us."

"Why not put him out on the street? He's useless to us now," Albie said.

Francis shook his head. "Not yet. Casey had a good performance on the projects of the TY Group, and

the Gray family didn't hold a grudge against him."

Albie didn't agree with his grandfather as he thought Casey would be kicked out.

"Grandpa, I don't think it'd be a good idea to leave him with us as he's just a useless liar. He knew the

Gray family would send us the invitation, and he proudly stood outside as if he's our savior," Albie said.

Francis shook his hand. "Enough. Let's pay more attention to the invitation. I'll bring some family

members to the dinner together, but the number is limited."

People instantly gathered around him as they all wanted to go to the dinner.

Albie was exasperated as he didn't believe Francis could let go of Casey.

"Grandpa, you can take anyone with you but Casey, who'll definitely disgrace our family," said Albie.

"Ha-ha! Casey said that he'd been invited by the Gray family. He doesn't have to go there with your

grandfather," someone taunted.

Francis cast Casey a hard look. "The dinner is not a party for fun. Neither Casey nor Edith's family can

go to the dinner with me. Due to Casey's misbehavior yesterday, Edith's family are punished."

Amara and Nicolas thought they'd get a chance to make friends with the powerful from the Gray family,

but it seemed that they were daydreaming.

They glared at Casey as they blamed him for the punishment.

To be honest, Francis didn't plan to take them even if Casey behaved himself yesterday.

But Edith didn't care about it as she wasn't interested in the dinner.

"Nicolas, take your family home. Tell Casey to behave himself," Francis said to Nicolas.

Amara and Edith said, "Let's go home."

The four people walked out of the villa as others all looked at them with taunts and snorts.

When Nicolas left to drive their car out of the parking-lot, Amara angrily pinched Casey in the arm,

yelling, "You monster! Hadn't it been you, we'd have been allowed to go to the Gray family's party.

You'd ruined everything, and you have to pay for our loss with cash."

Edith looked at her mother with surprise as she had never thought her mother could be so malicious.

"Mom, are you insane? Grandpa won't take us to the party even if Casey did everything right. Why

should Casey pay for the loss?" Edith questioned Amara.

"Whatever it is, I just know Casey's in debt to us. If he doesn't give us the money till tonight, he'll sleep

in the street," Amara threatened.

Glaring at Amara, Casey really wanted to slap her in the face if she was not his mother-in-law.

"Don't you remember that I'm the one paying for the property costs. I can leave and sleep in the hotel,

then you'll have to pay for it on your own," he said coldly.

Amara immediately changed her mind. "Casey, you bastard, how could you threaten me with the dirty

tricks!"

Casey was rendered speechless as he thought he was the one being bullied.

After Nicolas drove the car to pick them up, they left for the Hazelfield Estate.

Silence spilled among them.

"If you really want to go to the dinner, I can take you there." Casey broke the silence.

Amara instantly snapped, "Shut up! You little liar! Don't you really think we'd believe your boasts?

Never will the Gray family invite a nobody like you."

Casey shrugged his shoulders as he'd done what he could to please them. He meant it but Amara was

too stupid to believe him.

In the following days, the whole Petal family was soaked in the exhilaration of attending the Gray

family's dinner. Some young Patels were chosen to attend the dinner party with Francis, as he wanted

the young generation of his family to broaden their horizon.

Including, of course, Albie and Nyla.

Nyla was over the moon as she knew Edith wasn't allowed to attend the dinner. There must be various

elites at the Gray family's dinner, and she could make acquaintance with them there. With their help,

she could become more powerful than Edith.

Although Edith, manager of the company, ranked higher than her now, in the era of social relations,

Edith would be defeated by her powerful network of relationships.

Casey explained to Edith that he really received the invitation, and she could go to the dinner with him.

Doubtful as she was, she promised him she'd go there with him, in case he'd get embarrassed.

What had recently upset her was that Diana always talked about Casey with her as if Diana and Casey

had an affair.

Even worse, at a time, Diana accidently spilled out the secret that one night she and Casey were

together, but then she quickly corrected herself.

Edith's heart was squeezed as she knew Casey had been frequently out at night.

Every time he went out, he told her he's got business to deal with, and she trusted him. However,

Diana's words changed her mind. What if Casey went out dating Diana?

But she had no proof, so she didn't question him.

In the afternoon of the Gray family's dinner, Casey went to Edith's company to pick her up.

Walking into the company, he came across Albie and Nyla.

Seeing Casey, they both flashed a taunting smirk.

"Well, isn't this the great Casey? Aren't you now at the Gray family's dinner? What are you doing here

in the company?" Albie smiled and said.

"I'm here to pick up my wife, and we're going to the dinner together," Casey answered.

Nyla rolled her eyes. "You can't be too shameless. How could you go to the dinner without an

invitation? They even won't let you in. Save the crap to yourself."

"Nyla, stop wasting time with the son of the bitch, as we've got a real dinner to attend. Hurry up and

leave with our grandpa," Albie interrupted.

Nyla nodded and looked at Casey with contempt before walking away.

Casey continued his way to find Edith.

Edith was still in doubt, and she asked, "Casey, where's the invitation?" Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Casey grinned. "We don't need it as people from the Gray family will pick us up."

Edith was dumbfounded, wondering if Casey was insane. How could they deserve a privilege like this?

Suddenly, Casey's phone rang.

"Hello, is that Mr. Davies? This is the chauffer of the Gray family, and I'm going to take you to the dinner

by order. May I have your present location, please?"

After Casey told him the address, the chauffer promised he'd arrive in ten minutes.

Ten minutes later, Casey grabbed Edith by hand and said, "Let's go downstairs."

Thinking of Diana's words, Edith somehow loathed taking his hand. When rising to her feet, she got

away from his grab, but Casey didn't care as he thought Edith was coy in public.

Edith had doubted Casey's words till they got to the gate of the company.

Suddenly, an EWB Lincoln pulled up in front of them. Its chauffer got off and walked to Casey.

"Good evening, sir. Are you Mr. Davies?"

Casey nodded.

"I'm the chauffer of Mr. Hugo. He ordered me to drive you to the dinner."

Edith was shocked as her jaw dropped.

The chauffer of Hugo? Was it a truth that Casey was invited by Hugo?
