Chapter 225 – Gently kissed
Tess Baker was startled before she said with a complicated look, “Thank you.”
Bowen Carter usually do not care about such trivial matters, but today for her to do so far, to say not touched, it is impossible!
Bowen Carter’s already ugly face got even uglier, who wants to hear her thanks?
Seeing him grimace, Tess Baker whispered reassuringly, “My mom and my brother are like that, you don’t need to get mad at them, it’s not worth it.”
In fact, she thought someone like Bowen Carter would listen to her mother’s howls for a few minutes and then leave, but he stayed with her the whole time!
Bowen Carter’s face was not softened by her reassurances.
Tess Baker looked at him for a long time and withdrew her gaze. She couldn’t stand people like her mother’s brother, and he must be even angrier!
“Cough!” ASSISTANT coughed dryly, unable to watch the stuffy president sulking, “Madam, you and the president are originally a family, the president is supposed to help you, you don’t need to say thank you for such an out-of-the-way word.”
Having said that, he gave himself a nod in his heart that employees like him are too sweet!
Tess Baker didn’t quite believe him. Bowen Carter would be angry over such a trivial matter?
ASSISTANT smoothly fought for the president’s welfare, “Actually, if you really appreciate the president, you can reward the president with a kiss or something, the president should be very happy!”
Hearing this, Bowen Carter’s face eases a bit and he appears to be looking out the window, but his full attention is on Tess Baker.
Tess Baker looked at Bowen Carter, who had a high-flying face, and thought ASSISTANT was a pipe dream.
Whenever Bowen Carter wanted to kiss her and wanted her it was a direct action, how could he take her kiss as a reward?
“You double your bonus this month.” Bowen Carter snapped.
assistant, “!!!”
Just because of a few words the bonus doubled, is this really his family’s sensible president?
No, since he met Madam, the president is not the sensible person he once was, he wants to cling to Madam’s thighs!
Tess Baker looks at Bowen Carter with an odd expression on her face, “…”
Is he indirectly admitting what ASSISTANT said?
The car arrived at The Carter Group headquarters more than 20 minutes later.
While ASSISTANT was getting out of the car, Tess Baker moved quickly to Bowen Carter’s mouth and gave him a peck, his voice soft, “Thanks.”
It was the same two words, but thanks to the kiss, Bowen Carter was in a much better mood, and the corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl up in a small curve.
assistant, “…”
Obviously the president and Mrs. children are how old, why do these two people make like pure love young boys and girls?
ASSISTANT pulls the door open and Bowen Carter gets out of the car first, then goes to help Tess Baker.
Tess Baker got out of the car and looked at The Carter Group in four large, gleaming gold letters and raised her eyebrows slightly. She remembered that Bowen Carter had said she was going to the nearest hotel, so how did she end up at The Carter Group headquarters?
“I have a meeting, you go to the office by yourself first.” When Bowen Carter asked assistant to pick up the person, assistant said that the group had an urgent matter for him to handle and he had to rush back to the group.
“Good.” Tess Baker was mentally relieved; if Bowen Carter had actually taken her to the hotel, she hadn’t known how to say no.
Bowen Carter told ASSISTANT to lead Tess Baker up while he went to the conference room.
Tess Baker looked at his back as he hurriedly left, feeling guilty and warm in her heart. He had urgent matters to deal with, but he still accompanied her to patiently deal with her brother s affairs … Five years of time, he really changed a lot.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
“Please, ma’am.” ASSISTANT made an inviting gesture.
Tess Baker followed ASSISTANT and took the president’s elevator to the president’s office. Compared to the last time she was here, there were three to four times more papers on the desk, piling it up.
“In recent times, the president is so busy that he can’t accompany madam more, please also ask madam to be more understanding.” Since the president’s emotional intelligence is too low, ASSISTANT always remembers to brush the president’s favor in front of madam.
Tess Baker smiled weakly and sat on the couch holding her back, “Well, I know.”
Bowen Carter is so busy, yet he still accompanies her to her maternity checkups and shopping malls. If she blames him again for not spending enough time with her, she is not understanding!
“Then you can take a rest here first, if there is anything you can call Secretary Wang, next door is the secretary’s office.” ASSISTANT bent down and flew away.
The lady could have come up herself, but the president had to let him send him, and the meeting had already begun!
Put in ancient times, the president is a faint king, a great faint king!
The president’s office was well heated, and she took off the black coat Bowen Carter had draped over her, along with her camel-colored coat, and hung it on a coat rack.
She looked around the office, but only looked carefully at a few porcelain ornaments from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, not touching the books or the paperwork.
Even if she and Bowen Carter were married, it was better for her not to touch such documents and books that might involve company secrets.
Knock knock!
There was a knock on the door.
Tess Baker, “Come in.”
A forty-year-old woman in a suit and overskirt walked in, and should be the secretary of the assistant’s mouth, Wang.
“Secretary Wang, right?” Tess Baker eyed the two small bags in her hand and said, “Bowen Carter’s gone to a meeting, so you can put the stuff on his desk and I’ll let him know later.”
“I am here to see you.” Secretary Wang said with a smile.
Tess Baker froze for a moment, looking for her?
“This is the dessert that the president asked me to prepare, you can just eat it first, I’ve already asked someone to buy the ones you like to eat.” Secretary Wang put the two bags on the table.
The president actually called her in the middle of a meeting and asked her to send some desserts over in ten minutes! Where is she going to get dessert in ten minutes? Fortunately, the company’s afternoon cafeteria has two good snacks, she first used to save the emergency!
“!” Bowen Carter had such an important meeting and still had time to have someone prepare dessert for her?!
When she didn’t say anything, Secretary Wang was terrified, “A few of your favorite snacks will be delivered in a moment, please wait a little longer.”
Rich people have a lot of things to do, madam should only eat those few regular snacks!
Tess Baker knew she had misunderstood and said, “I’ll just have these two items, or let me go to the company’s afternoon tea restaurant for a while, instead of going out to buy snacks.”
The dim sum she likes to eat are all old fashioned, and the queue will take a long time, and you may not always be able to buy them.
“Then … I’ll take Mrs. to the restaurant?” Secretary Wang’s heart moved, recently the group has a lot of things to do, the secretary’s office is used as one for two, they really can’t spare their hands!
Tess Baker nodded, got up and put on her camel-colored coat, and followed Secretary Wang to the restaurant.
The Carter Group, as a globally recognized company, has gone to great lengths in terms of employee benefits, with a portion of the staff coming to The Carter Group’s restaurant alone, which employs ten chefs who have served as three-star Michelin restaurant chefs.
So it’s not rude for Secretary Wang to host Tess Baker for dinner here.
It was 3:30 pm and many of the staff were having afternoon tea. When they saw the Tess Baker duo enter, many of them surreptitiously looked at her and then looked at Lucy Kid who was sitting at the other side of the restaurant with a weird look on her face.
Looks exactly the same … Turns out all that flamboyance from the president wasn’t a subplot.
