Chapter 258 Can I put the potted plant here
“I took it outside in the sun.” Aunt Zhang with some small smugness, “Cactus watering too much water will rot the roots, I did not water.”
Tess Baker went with Aunt Zhang to pick up the potted plant and then had the driver drop her off at The Carter Group headquarters.
The two bodyguards re-followed her, but all were expressionless, and whenever she said something to them, they acted as if they couldn’t hear her, their eyes full of disgust.
It’s supposed to be the fact that she ‘cheated’ on them that pisses them off.
Tess Baker just laughed helplessly, didn’t bother to explain, didn’t feel the need to explain either, and took the potted plant into The Carter Group.
“Hello ma’am.” The employees hurriedly avoided her when they saw her, and those who couldn’t avoid her said “Good day, ma’am” to her, as if she was a flooding beast.
When she left, the employees gathered in twos and threes and talked about her with odd faces.
Tess Baker pushed down her discomfort and carried the potted plant to the floor where the president’s office was located.
She had just pushed open the door when Secretary Wang came from the next conference room, seeing that it was her, he smiled awkwardly, “Madam is here!”
President and assistant is not in, heard the sound of pushing the door she came over for a moment, should have known that the lady who came, she did not come out to see!
“Uh-huh.” Tess Baker pointed to the potted plant in her hand, “Bowen Carter sits in front of the computer a lot and absorbs too much radiation, and I heard that cacti absorb radiation, so I took one.”
Secretary Wang is very difficult, the president and Mrs. relationship is quite bad recently, if you let Mrs. put things in, it is not easy to explain to the president!
“He and I just had a fight, so if I say that the potted plant is a gift from me, he will definitely not be happy. I’ll tell you what, if he asks, just say that the company employees prepared it, okay?” She didn’t say anything, and Tess Baker could roughly guess what she was thinking.
Secretary Wang was slightly embarrassed to have his mind guessed, “Thank you, Madam, for your understanding.”
Tess Baker smiled and put the potted plant on the windowsill, putting it with the other greenery so it wouldn’t be easily noticed.
How not to put together with the computer? Secretary Wang was puzzled, but did not dare to ask.
After Tess Baker finished putting out the potted plants, she was ready to go back, but when she got off the elevator, she ran into Lucy Kid who was laughing and joking with a group of employees.
Exactly the same face, but the temperament is very different, one flirtatious, one pure, giving a completely different feeling.
A hint of awkwardness floated through the atmosphere, and the employees looked at each other with a tacit agreement to remain quiet.
“Is Miss Baker here to see me about Bowen?” Lucy Kid hung her head down and said softly and weakly, “I’m sorry, Bowen always liked me, it’s just that he thought I was dead, that’s why he was looking for a double. I shouldn’t have lost my memory after the accident, and I’m really sorry for involving you as a double.”
Employees, “!!!”
It turns out that the president’s wife is really just a stand-in!
Technically speaking, the president’s wife is the third party!
Hearing the word ‘double’ once again, Tess Baker’s whole body stiffened and her face didn’t show the slightest bit of blood.
But after a long while, a smile as wide as it could be blossomed on her lips, “So what does Ms. Sheng plan to do? After Bowen Carter and I get married and have a baby, are you ready to come and grab the title of Mrs. Carter?”
She doesn’t care what Mrs. Carter can bring her, but she won’t allow a calculating woman to be a stepmother to her two children!
“I … didn’t mean it, I just wanted to apologize to you because I dragged you into being a stand-in.” Lucy Kid bit her lips, as if a shaky little white flower, looking at the staff up with love and pity.
Tess Baker lifted her hair behind her ear, smiling, “Miss Sheng is not trying to show off to me that Bowen Carter has always liked you? In the future, talk simply, no need to be so roundabout, you do not mind the effort to spend more, I still think it takes brain.”
The way the employees looked at Lucy Kid changed instantly.
Lucy Kid’s face turned red and she couldn’t say anything for half a day, Tess Baker’s mouth was too poisonous, but she didn’t even use a dirty word!
“I heard that people with heavy hearts have a short life expectancy, Miss Sheng can grow up. Oh, by the way, Bowen Carter how fond of you, you do not need to specifically tell me. I’m pregnant, I need to pay attention to fetal education, the child is not born before learning some bad thoughts, it will make me worry.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
After saying that, Tess Baker calm face out of The Carter Group, but the heart seems to be raining swords, pain suffocating.
Substitute … Heh, these two words are really annoying!
…
Tess Baker was not able to make a video call with Linda Mark in the evening. Bowen Carter called Aunt Zhang to inform her to pack up and get ready for a dinner party.
“Where does a husband and wife have an overnight grudge? The fact that Mr. asked you to be the party date means that you are still very important in his heart.” Aunt Zhang said in a serious tone.
Tess Baker did not respond as she applied her makeup to the makeup mirror table.
Having known Bowen Carter for so many years, she knew very well that he was a vindictive person. She had upset him with her affair with the senior, and he definitely wouldn’t let her off the hook by making a couple of histrionics on the internet!
“You ah, is too arrogant, a moment to see Mr., say a few more good words, this thing is even the past … “Aunt Zhang rambled for more than half an hour, Tess Baker put on makeup and changed clothes when she was still say something about how couples get along.
Tess Baker bent her eyes and smiled, “Thank you for reminding me of that.”
Aunt Zhang really treats her as a junior to tell her this, but she won’t change herself to please a man, it’s a matter of principle.
She pulled on a white down jacket, got in the car, sent a message to Dennis Gate telling him her things had been put away, and then called Linda Mark.
“I’m going to a dinner party with Bowen Carter tonight and won’t be able to video you, so be a good girl and call your aunt and uncle and don’t let them worry.” Tess Baker said.
“Like an old mom, are you nagging or not?” Linda Mark grumbled, then asked, “I saw all that Bowen Carter lace news, and … you with the seniors, are you okay?”
“People aren’t dead anyway.” Tess Baker laughed to herself.
“Master Carter made a scene on the internet and everyone knows you guys are not getting along!” Linda Mark was worried, “Those people at the party aren’t any good either, holding up the highs and the lows, if you can’t take it, just pull out early! If you can’t take it, you should pull out early! Anyway, Master Carter doesn’t give you face anymore, so you don’t have to give him face either!”
The two chatted for a while longer, and Tess Baker hung up after repeatedly telling Linda Mark to call THE Mark Family.
Fifteen minutes later, the car arrived at the hotel where the dinner was held.
Tess Baker got off the bus and saw dozens of luxury cars parked next to it long ago, Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Maybach … everything, like a luxury car show.
A stylishly dressed woman passed her with a male companion on her arm, and the taunts carried on the wind into Tess Baker’s ears-
“Brother, look at her, driving a hundred-thousand-dollar-plus Volkswagen, how dare she come to the dinner party!”
“I’m ashamed of her for parking a Volkswagen in the middle of a Rolls Royce and a Ferrari!”
