Chapter: 1921
Davey gave her a teasing look. "Don't you remember, Casey? We're a couple, and we've shared many close moments."
"We're a couple?" This news seemed to astonish Casey.
Davey chose not to answer directly, leaning in and murmuring, “Would you prefer to listen now, or would you rather rest?"
Casey looked troubled. "My head is hurting..."
"ALL right. Get some rest, then." Davey gazed at Casey.
Davey was not in a hurry. After all, he thought he and Casey had all the time in the world.
Casey closed her beautiful eyes. After a while, her breathing gradually steadied. When Davey saw this, the expression on his face started to change. The tenderness he had shown just now instantly vanished. It was replaced by a growing cloud of darkness.
Davey reached out and caressed her sleeping face, and countless memories flooded back into his mind.
When Davey met Casey, the Glyn family had already considered him an outcast.
That was because his father, Jayceon, disobeyed his grandfather and married a woman with no background. Jayceon was kicked out of the Glyn family for this.
Jayceon was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and he had never tasted the bitter pill of poverty.
But his married life with Clemmie Brown, his wife, was never easy.
The love they initially had for each other was gradually shattered by the heavy weight of financial woes. As their bills piled up, so did their fights.
Until one day, Jayceon finally abandoned Clemmie and their young son, Davey. Jayceon left them with nothing but heartache.
Clemmie, desperate and furious, rented a car, found Jayceon on the road, and accelerated the car to hit him.
This resulted in a fiery wreckage that took both their lives on the spot.
At that time, Davey was barely a teen. But the tragedy made him an orphan. He could not resist when a neighbor took him in. However, this neighbor was a cruel drunkard whose Life was also in shambles.
He provided Davey shelter, but he would beat and scold Davey every time he got drunk.
Davey was too young to remember his true identity. He endured years of torment in the hands of his abusive foster father.
One day, in the dead of night, Davey's foster father was too drunk to even stand steadily. He fell and hit the back of his head on the floor.
