Chapter 447 – I’ll Be Good to Tess Baker
But the horrible consequences Ben Si expected didn’t happen, and Bowen Carter was even a little nicer than he’d just been, “Don’t worry, I’ll treat Tess Baker right.”
“I’m sure Master Carter will be good to Tess, otherwise she would have had no business staying with you a long time ago after all the mistakes she’s made.” Ben Si said solicitously.
Tess Baker tugged at her lower lip, sarcasm in the corner of her eye.
Bowen Carter was nice to her?
At the very least, in her years as Tess Baker, he was good to her for a handful of years, and more … than that, he was miserable.
Elder Si looks at Tess Baker and walks out the door with a sigh, all hunched over.
Ben Si followed him, holding him up.
“Wait a minute.” Tess Baker suddenly called out to the two.
Ben Si’s face is not looking good, what else is this Tess Baker up to? She doesn’t really want Grandpa to trade those shares for her, does she?
“What’s the matter Tess, did you change your mind and want to come back with me?” Elder Si’s eyes were filled with hope.
Bowen Carter’s eyes were cold and his body tensed. Even in death, Tess Baker had to stay by his side!
“I,” Tess Baker still couldn’t shout the word ‘mom’, “how did your daughter die?”
She thought she didn’t care about that woman, but …
“Difficult labor, died while giving birth to you.” When he said this, Master Si was a little sad, but it was just a moment, “After your accident, your father sold the car and house to look for you everywhere, and now he doesn’t know where.”
Tess Baker’s straightened back loosened, and she couldn’t tell you what she felt inside, except that she felt empty.
Turns out it’s not just her, Wendy Summer doesn’t have any memories of that woman either.
Turns out she wasn’t fatherless and unloved, she just grew up without a mom, and her dad had been looking for her all along and just hadn’t found her.
Then in that case, how come there’s no record of her father at the police station?
Ben Si curses, his sister-in-law died long ago, and his father is nowhere to be found, how come a troublemaker like Tess Baker is alive and well?
“She’s already dead, Tess, I don’t want to send another gray hair to a black hair!” There were a few watery glimmers under Elder Si’s cloudy eyes.
Tess Baker clutched her chopsticks tightly and didn’t say anything, except that her heart couldn’t speak.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about them, and remember to tell me when Master Carter treats you badly.” Master Si wiped the corners of his eyes, and this time, without Tess Baker having to rush him, he turned and walked out.
Ben Si smiled and said goodbye to both Bowen Carter Tess Baker and followed the old man out of the office with Secretary Wang.
“I’ll arrange for someone to find your dad.” Bowen Carter, unable to see Tess Baker upset, slowed his voice to a soothing whisper.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Tess Baker, not wanting to owe him a favor, but being partial to meeting the man who had sold his family’s property to get to her, didn’t say no and just took small sips of her rib soup.
…
The little guy got stuck in traffic and arrived an hour late, and the food was cold by the time he got there. Tess Baker only had a bowl of rib soup and didn’t eat anything else.
“Go out and eat.” Bowen Carter stood up and walked over to the coat rack to get his coat.
“Don’t!” The little guy glared at him angrily and railed, “Pregnant women need a month’s rest after giving birth, it’s best not to blow during that time, you don’t know anything and you let Mommy fool around all day!”
When he marries his daughter-in-law in the future, he will surely spoil her to his heart, and he will definitely not be the same as his scummy daddy!
Bowen Carter frowned and put his coat down again, “I’ll have one made just like it and sent over.”
The table was stocked with Tess Baker’s and her son’s favorite foods.
“Why do you need to focus?” The little guy looked at him however he could, “It’s not like we’ve had a few bites of these dishes, why don’t we just warm them up in the microwave and eat them next?”
Jagged daddy is a waste. Don’t you know it’s tough for Uncle Farmer to grow food?
Bowen Carter, who has never had the experience of warming up leftovers and continuing to eat them, turns his head to look at Tess Baker.
“Listen to him.” Tess Baker didn’t look at him, but knelt down and stroked the little guy’s head, asking him if he’d done anything interesting at school.
The little guy crackled a bunch of words, and finally asked with a worried face, “Mommy, you can’t blow the wind, can’t exert yourself, and can’t have too many emotional ups and downs within a month after giving birth to your little sister, or else your body will be uncomfortable, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
“I’m fine, don’t get any ideas.” Tess Baker kissed the little guy on the cheek and hugged him into her arms, touched and amused at the same time.
Mike is so young and he knows that she should rest and take care of her body during her monthly period, but Bowen Carter still lets her come to the company, and this is what he calls treating her well?
Sure enough, his words can only be heard, and if you take them seriously, you lose.
The atmosphere was cozy as the big man and the big woman talked.
Bowen Carter stood by, feeling like there was an invisible wall between the three, and how he couldn’t fit into their world.
But he wasn’t even in a position to complain, he had a chance to have a good life with them, but he had wasted that chance himself and let things get to this awful state.
“But Auntie Linda said that you didn’t have a proper month when you gave birth to me and that your body was a bit weak, and she told me to tell you that you must rest well during the month, and not to pay any attention to Scummy Daddy, who doesn’t look forward to your good health!” As he said the last sentence, the little one gave Bowen Carter a hard stare.
Tess Baker nodded, smiling bitterly.
She’d like to get some rest and ignore Bowen Carter, but it’s not up to her. Bowen Carter threatens her with the Mark Family and two kids, and she can only do what he says!
Bowen Carter’s face was unchanged, but his mind was more frustrated than ever.
His women and children should rely on him the most, but to them, he is the worst enemy.
“I’ll have Secretary Wang heat up the food, you guys wait a while.” He said in a deep voice.
Neither mother nor son paid any attention to him, and the little one grunted heavily, showing her dislike of him by turning her little butt directly against him.
There was a flash of loss in Bowen Carter’s eyes as he strided out of the office and turned into a side secretary’s office.
A few of the secretaries had returned from dinner, but hadn’t gone to work yet, they were gathering to watch TV shows and play games.
When Bowen Carter came in, a female secretary was yelling, “Is this Lu Ban a fool, how come he got cut by Han Xin again, report him/her later! Eh, why aren’t you all talking? Is Lao Yang’s skin itching, why do you keep kicking me?”
She inadvertently looked up when she finished speaking, just in time to see an icy cold handsome face, and was so scared that her soul flew away, and her cell phone snapped and fell to the ground, shattering.
Boing Boing, she just bought a cell phone that cost 10, 000 grand!
The secretaries were silenced one by one, the only thing left in the office was the game and the sounds coming from the TV show, the idol drama seemed to be just in time to see the male and female protagonists kissing passionately, the ambiguous sound was extraordinarily clear in the office.
Bowen Carter swept his gaze from several people one by one.
