Chapter 178 No Other Way


    “Sis, do you know him?” Shay looked wary.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    “Sis?” A smile appeared in Casey’s eyes.


    Courtney sighed helplessly. “Shay, you’ve been exposed.”


    Although she told Casey that she had a fiancé, she did not mention who her fiancé was. However, Shay immediately exposed their rtionship as soon as he called her ‘sister’. It’s not my fault. This child is still too na?ve.


    “You guys can go ahead and talk. I’m going to go over there with Cameron.” She touched her nose awkwardly before pulling Cameron away with her. It was embarrassing for her and Cameron to continue staying here, especially since there was nothing Casey could do to Shay while they were in public. It’s better if we make a quick retreat.


    Courtney was just about to leave. Meanwhile, Shay red at Casey angrily as he turned to follow her.


    “Don’t you want to know how I became acquainted with Courtney?”


    “Nope.”


    “Which do you think would be worse? For the person you hate to be your boyfriend? Or, for him to be your brother-in-


    “What do you mean by that?” He stopped in his tracks, turned back, and saw the photo on Casey’s phone. His gaze immediately became wary. Grabbing Casey by the cor, he growled in a low voice, “I’m warning you; stay away from my sister. Otherwise, don’t me me for what I might do.”


    “Oh?” Casey allowed Shay to grab him by the cor without struggling. He even casually stuffed both his hands into his pockets.


    His gold-rimmed sses reflected a cold light, revealing his great interest. “I’m curious about what you might do.”


    Shay angrily snapped, “I will expose you as a homosexual pervert! The media reporters will surely have a heyday over the news.


    Don’t forget that you have an ex-wife and children; you deceived a woman’s love and married her to cover up the fact that you’re gay! Do you think yourpany will be unaffected by the news once this information is exposed?!”“Before the newses out, I will hand over the president position to my younger brother.” Casey studied the young man in front of him like a big, bad wolf watching a small, white bunny. His attitude was way too rxed. “Besides, once you do that, I will drag you down with me by announcing that you are in a rtionship with me. You can retire along with me.”


    “Bullsh*t.” Shay immediately became livid. “Who the f*ck is in a rtionship with you?!”


    “I quite like the way you curse and swear.” Casey curled his lips into a refined yet rascally smile.


    Shay was so furious that his chest was heaving—so much so that he couldn’t evene up with a retort to those words.


    “Calm down. Why don’t you listen to what I have to say?” Casey took one hand out of his pocket and patted Shay on the shoulder. “I won’t touch your sister, but you have to peacefully get along with me.


    “I’m a normal man.” Shay pped Casey’s hands away and took several steps back with a cautious expression. “Whatever you’re thinking about is impossible.”


    “I’m a normal man too.” Casey shrugged. It was maddening how this movement gave him such azy yet graceful elegance.


    “That was an ident; I drank too much that day.”


    Shay gave Casey a suspicious look. “If I remember correctly, you only had half a ss of red wine that day.” He kindly sent Casey home only to be molested during the process. Recalling the incident always gave him a headache, but he was worried about Courtney’s safety. Thus, he took a deep breath and said, “Fine; I can promise to be friends with you. But, you must stay away from my sister.”


    “I don’tck friends.” Casey looked at Shay with a smile that did not reach his eyes. “You know in your heart what I’m trying to achieve by getting along with you. Even if you want to feign ignorance, I don’t.”


    The business world was bothersome enough. Therefore, he was used to being blunt when it came to rtionship issues. He did not like beating around the bush.


    “What else do you want then?!” Shay gritted his teeth; his face was flushed.


    “Date me just like how lovers would.”


    “You—”“There is no other way.” Casey took a ss of wine from a passing waiter before turning to head toward Courtney. Before he left, he said, “Your sister probably broke up with Alexander recently. Coincidentally, my sister seems to have something going on with him. If I help fan the mes, it won’t be strange if feelings change. I’ll give you one night to consider my offer. Give me your answer at the end of the banquet.”


    Standing still, Shay trembled in anger. He helplessly watched as Casey strode toward Courtney; he was unable to stop it from happening. Thus, he turned around only to see a familiar figure entering the banquet hall—it was Alexander.


    Alexander walked in with Mika by his side, in full view of the public. Moreover, Mika was holding on to his arm like they were a couple.


    Shay scowled at the sight, subconsciously ncing in Courtney’s direction and feeling slightly relieved. Good; Courtney is still talking to Casey and has yet to notice Alexander. Then, he suddenly panicked again. Casey, that damn homosexual! Leaving aside the fact that he deceived his ex-wife into having children with him, how dare he try to deceive my sister?! How shameless of him!


    “Alexander, my brother mentioned that he wanted to have a drink with youter. It’s been a while since youst met each other.”


    Mika snuggled against Alexander, and her tone was intimate.


    However, Alexander was not paying attention to her. Not long after he entered the venue, he noticed Courtney and Casey standing together. It made him pause in his tracks for a moment, and his eyebrows furrowed together.


    Following in the direction of his gaze, Mika saw them and looked perplexed too. “Isn’t that Courtney? Why is my brother with her—”


    “Isn’t your brother married?” His voice rang out from beside her, clearly sounding unhappy.


    “Didn’t you know?” She looked up at him. “My sister-inw left for America after she gave birth to my niece. The two of them divorced five years ago, but it has not been made public. Even my parents only found out about it recently. They’ve been urging him to find a new wife recently.”


    Alexander’s scowl deepened. The image of Casey and Courtney happily chatting away was seared into his eyes, and he felt as if a rock was pressing against his heart. It made him panic. I thought she went on a trip this weekend for a change of pace, and her anger would have cooled by then. Instead, look at how capable she is. She is already targeting Casey in the blink of an eye. She doesn’t seem at all bothered by what happened previously. She sure seems happy.“Alexander, my brother ising over.” Her voice entered his ears, carrying a hint of warning in it.


    “I’m busy. We’ll talkter.” Alexander withdrew his arm and walked away, leaving Mika behind. Mika looked in the direction he left and bit her lip as her gaze dimmed.


    Alexander had taken no more than a few steps before he was stopped by a figure appearing from among the crowd. It was Mika’s mother. “Alexander, you’re here! Mr. Lewis has been waiting for you for a long time.”


    The sounds of a conversation floated over and the name ‘Alexander’ rang out from not far away. Courtney subconsciously nced in the direction of the voice. She saw a graceful and elegant woman talking to Alexander affectionately and intimately. At the same time, Casey’s indifferent voice sounded in her ears. “That’s my mother. Oh, you might not know this; my mother is very close to Alexander. They are practically like mother and son.”


    Upon hearing those words, Courtney’s smile gradually stiffened at the corners of her mouth.
