Chapter 20 Is the Floor too Hard to Sleep well?
Jax stopped, after seeing that the man spoke the truth.
Everyone was shocked by what this man said. No one ever expected that it was really Albie who
arranged for it.
No one expected that under that circumstances he would continue to lie. Had it been them, they would
have spoken the truth after one broken finger.
Furthermore, that man even mentioned Jayden. Jayden was the top three underworld kings in J City. If
what he said wasn’t the truth, he wouldn’t dare to say it. After all, Jayden wasn’t someone to be trifled
with.
The burglars mentioned Jayden in the hope that Jax would show them mercy. Otherwise, with Jax’s
ruthlessness, he might very well have broken all of their ten fingers.
“That’s the truth and everybody heard it for yourselves. I, Casey, has always been above board. I will
never do something such as stealing.” Casey said righteously.
Everyone nodded and shifted their eyes towards Albie.
Albie totally couldn’t explain any further as everybody felt that the burglars were now speaking the
truth.
“You guys don’t talk nonsense here. You stole the things, what does it have to do with me? Grandpa,
they are blindly accusing me!” Albie said nervously.
“We are not accusing you. Why don’t you ask Jayden? We are so damn unlucky to work for someone
like you!” The man with the broken fingers endured the pain and said.
Albie swallowed some saliva and didn’t know what to do.
Francis’s face turned blue and obviously believed the two burglars.
But he had always sided Albie. Even if the burglars were sent by Albie, he was helping him get rid of
the useless Casey out of the Patel family.
“Enough, this matter will end here. I’m aware of my own grandson. He won’t do such a thing. Send
these two burglars to the police station. No one is to mention this matter.” Francis ordered.
It was obvious that Francis was biased towards Albie but those present didn’t dare to say anything.
Edith wanted some justice for Casey. Just now when the burglars said that they were sent by Casey,
Francis wanted to drive Casey out of the Patel family.
Now that the burglars spoke the truth and told Francis that everything was arranged by Albie, Francis
told everyone not to mention this matter.
This was too unfair to Casey.
But Francis was an authoritarian of the Patel family. If she were to speak up for Casey, it will only
enrage Francis further.
“This exhibition was done very well by Edith and my collection wasn’t stolen. You have done a huge
contribution and deserve all the credit. Henceforth your salary will double and for your sake, I’ll let
Casey this good for nothing remain in the Patel family. Make sure he doesn’t give me any problems.”
Francis knew that Albie carried things too far and used the exhibition to praise Edith.
“Grandpa, this exhibition…” Edith wanted to say that the very reason why the antiques weren’t stolen
was because of Casey.
“Enough, the exhibition has concluded. Keep the things properly and help me thank the owner of TY
Manor. Albie, stay at home with me these few days and don’t go to the office.”
Francis turned and began walking out of TY Manor.
Albie masterminded the theft of his antiques and he wanted to let Albie reflect on his actions at home.
Albie acknowledged what Francis said and then turned towards Casey and Edith and gave a cold
laugh.
“So what if grandpa knows that this was orchestrated by me, I’m his grandson and he wouldn’t do
anything to me. Accept the reality, in the Patel family, what I say matters!”
Edith’s expression was furious and wanted to shout at Albie.
Casey stretched out his hand to stop her, “Don’t get angry with such a conceited person. Sooner or
later he will regret it.”
Edith nodded and felt that Casey was right and didn’t bother with Albie.
Sometimes when you argue with a fool, in the end, you’ll turn into the fool.
When the people in the garden realize that the exhibition has concluded, they started to walk out of TY
Manor.
Form beginning to the end, they didn’t see the owner of TY Manor, and no one knew why the owner
would receive Edith.
Nyla walked in front of Casey and Edith full of pride and arrogance and said, “You labored so much
only to get a bit more salary. The owner of TY Manor is nothing compared to my future husband. When
he comes to marry me, this Patel family will be run by me!”
Casey pursed his lips and thought to himself that her daydream was wildly exaggerated.
When they returned home, Amara was very happy that her daughter had successfully organized the
exhibition for Francis and her pay had been doubled. This was a great achievement that was why she
prepared a table of food for Edith.
“Daughter, you had made a huge contribution. I believe your grandfather would value you even more.
Giving you a raise was just the beginning.” Amara laughed.
“Yes, our daughter is more and more capable.” Nicolas laughed and said.
“Dad, mom, this exhibition, Casey’s efforts were also very big, if it isn’t for him…” Edith said.
“What has your success in organizing the exhibition got to do with this useless person. It’s entirely your Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
own abilities. Casey went with you could only mess things up. That’s why it was good that you handed
the security well otherwise the theft of the antiques may be blamed on our family.”
Once Amara heard about Casey, her mood immediately changed.
“But mom, those guards…”
“Enough, daughter, don’t speak for that useless bum. He is already fortunate that he wasn’t driven
away from the family. Even if you speak for him, you can’t change the fact that he is useless.”
Edith looked at Casey helplessly and Casey laughed at her, “Eat, I won’t bother.”
After dinner, Casey went to wash the dishes, and thereafter he went to the bedroom.
He laid the mat on the ground and then realized that Edith was looking at him.
“Why?” Casey asked.
“I’m so sorry about today. I wanted to explain carefully but they will not listen.” Edith was very
apologetic.
Casey didn’t take it to heart and laughed, “As long as the problem is resolved. Don’t bother about what
others think, since they acknowledge your abilities, that’s the most important to me.”
Edith was very thankful in her heart. What happened today already cause her to have a very different
opinion of Casey.
“Oh yes, that Heart of Venus, was it really bought by you?” Edith asked directly.
Casey nodded and didn’t hide it from her.
“You… how do you have so much money?” That necklace was worth forty-five million! Where did
Casey get so much money?
“Heh, case-dough?” Casey replied.
Edith was speechless, isn’t your case-dough a bit too much?
She didn’t pursue any further. From the moment they married, she and Casey were clearly delineated.
She never asked about Casey’s matters and didn’t care how much money he has as long as its legal,
Edith wouldn’t care.
Casey lay down on the floor and Edith looked at Casey and unexpectedly asked, “You, you… is it hard
for you to sleep on the floor? Why don’t you…”
