The Peremptory Casey Davies
Chapter 631 Hock

In the next morning.

Casey was awake, but he didn't get up. Instead, he lay on the sofa with his eyes closed, having a rest while thinking about his plan.

At this moment, Annabel sat up and stretched herself lazily. She had long not had such a sound sleep.

After getting out of bed, Annabel quietly came close to the sofa. Seeing that Casey's eyes were closed, she thought that he was still asleep.

"Humph, you were so stubborn. You deserve to sleep on such a hard sofa. I was so generous that I agreed to share a bed with you, but you should not cherish it. Stupid!"

As she murmured, she pulled the blanked for Casey.

Then she came close to the bed, took a watch from the table and stared at it for a long time with reluctance.

"That bastard needs to buy a mobile phone. I can only sell you. I hope that I can find a good host for you today. You can't be with me in the future anymore." Annabel spoke to herself.

These days, Annabel and Casey lived in Christine's home. It took a lot of money to live and get a doctor for Casey.

Besides, Annabel clearly knew the situation of Christine's family, knowing that they couldn't afford to support two more people. Therefore, at the very beginning, she sold some of her jewelry and gave a sum of money to Herman. Otherwise, they might have been driven out.

After that, to help Casey recover from his injuries, she needed to get something like nutrient solution. Besides, a wheelchair was also needed. Annabel bought all of them with the money she got from selling her jewelry.

When her mobile phone was dropped into the sea, it had been broken. And she was not in the habit of taking a bank card with her. Therefore, she could only support their life in this way.

The pieces of jewelry she sold were her favorite. In the past, she spent a lot of money on them. Now, in this strange place, she could only sell them at a very low price.

This watch was the last thing she had. She didn't know what to do after using the money got from selling it.

At this moment, Casey secretly opened his eyes and looked at Annabel, feeling puzzled. Annabel spoke in a low voice, so he didn't hear what she was muttering. Before long, Annabel was ready and left with that watch.

Casey wanted to know what Annabel went out for. Therefore, not long after she left, he hurriedly got up and followed her to the center of Q City.

They had been Q City for a long time. Casey had just been to the wharf for a few times. In the rest of the time, he had been staying at Christine's home. It was the first time for him to go to the center of Q City. As a relatively remote coastal city, Q City didn't develop very well. However, although it was a small city, it had all the facilities a city should have. Besides, because of the wharf, the trade had developed quite well. Therefore, people here lived a life nearly as good as people in other places.

Annabel came to a pawnbroker's shop in the center of the city. After hesitating for a while, she went in with that watch.

The pawnbroker was a middle-aged man in his forties. He wore a mustache and looked a little cunning.

At this moment, he was sitting at a table and leisurely basking in the sun by the window with a teapot in his hand.

When Annabel went in, he gave her a glance. Then, his eyes lit up. He stood up hurriedly.

When the employee just approached Annabel, the pawnbroker pulled him and said, "I'll take care of her. You go inside and tell Young Master Huang that the beauty I mentioned last time comes." That employee nodded at once, turned around and went inside.

"Miss, you come to hock something again. This way, please." The pawnbroker led Annabel to the table with a smile.

Annabel didn't talk nonsense, directly handing the watch to him.

"I want to sell this watch, how much does it worth?" Annabel spoke.

The pawnbroker took it and looked at it for a while. His eyes lit up at once.

"It's a good watch. It's a Patek Philippe watch. But it seems to be a fake one. It's a bit rough. Considering that you're a regular customer, I'll give you five thousand dollars. It's a good price. How about that?" The pawnbroker spoke with a smile.

Annabel frowned and said, "It's a limited edition watch. I spent more than one million dollars on it. And you'll just give me five thousand dollars. You go too far."

"Miss, don't try to fool me. If you can afford a watch worthy of more than a million dollars, you won't need to hock it here. If you can show me the invoice for this watch, I'm willing to give you more money." The pawnbroker was cunning.

Annabel was somewhat helpless. How was it possible for her to get the invoice for this watch now? If it were in the past, even if this watch was just dropped on the ground, she wouldn't bother to pick it up. Now, she was forced by life to sell it for money.

"I don't have invoice with me. But 5000 dollars is chicken feed. At least, you should pay me 500000 dollars. Otherwise, I won't sell it to you." Annabel said. It was the last valuable thing she had, so she had to get more money from selling it. Only in this way could she support the life of Casey and her for some days.

The pawnbroker immediately laughed and said, "Miss, you're demanding an exorbitant price. You want to get 500000 dollars by selling a fake watch. Why don't you go to rob somebody of it?"

Hearing that, Annabel stretched out her hand to take her watch back and said, "Then I'm not going to sell it to you. I'll go somewhere else."

The pawnbroker immediately gripped the watch tightly. He was not going to give it back to Annabel.

"What're you doing? Give it back to me!" Annabel became anxious at once, stretching out her hand to get the watch back.

The pawnbroker stood up, looked at Annabel with a smile and said, "Miss, don't be anxious. In fact, it's possible for me to give you 500000 dollars."

Annabel frowned, stared at the pawnbroker and asked, "What do you mean?"

"He, he. The condition is that you can take the hint. If you listen to me, I'm willing to give you five million dollars, not to mention 500000 dollars." The pawnbroker laughed obscenely.

Annabel subconsciously took two steps back, looked warily at the pawnbroker and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Right at this moment, several people came out from inside. The first people to come out was a slovenly young man in his twenties. Several bodyguards followed him.

After seeing Annabel, the young man's eyes immediately lit up. He hurriedly asked, "Boss Chang, is she the beauty you mentioned to me before? Fuck, she's really as beautiful as a fairy."

Boss Changnodded with a smile. Then, he looked at Annabel and said, "Miss, I'll come straight to the point. He's Howell Huang, Young Master Huang, the son of the boss of Qiansheng Mall. He takes a fancy

to you. As long as you're willing to be his girlfriend, you'll have money to burn in the future. And you won't have to hock something here anymore. Think about it."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
