Chapter 259 Bowen Carter’s humiliation
Tess Baker then noticed that the driver was driving a $110, 000 to $120, 000 Volkswagen. Bowen Carter had gone to great lengths to humiliate her!
She soon learned that he was more attentive than she thought –
“Madam, please show your invitation.” The staff said with a smile.
Bowen Carter didn’t say anything at all about the invitation and Tess Baker frowned, “My husband is Bowen Carter and he took the invitation but didn’t come with me.”
“Ma’am, are you kidding me, Mrs. Carter is driving a hundred thousand dollar Volkswagen?” The stylishly dressed woman had already experienced her identity, and stood watching the joke, “Please check carefully, so as not to mix in anyone with an ulterior motive.”
After saying that, gave Tess Baker a meaningful look.
“Thank you for the heads up.” The staff member said.
The woman said you’re welcome and went in with her male companion.
Staff, “Madam, if your invitation is with your husband, please enter with your husband. Now, please give way first.”
Tess Baker silently retreated to the side, only to find that Puppy White had somehow arrived behind her, looking at her with a cold look, interspersed with mockery.
When she looked over, Puppy White’s lips curled in mockery before she handed the invitation to the staff and went inside.
Many of the people behind her also looked at her with disgust or loathing, they had seen a lot of this kind of people who used all means to get close to the upper class!
Surrounded by such stares, Tess Baker frowned, turned around, and, amidst a crowd of mocking stares, walked over to the VW and knocked on the window.
After the window was down, she said, “Open the car door.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Without an invitation, she can’t even get in and there’s no need to continue to make a fool of herself here!
The driver, “I’m sorry young lady, Master Carter has instructed me to watch you enter the venue.”
The implication is that it is impossible to send her back.
Tess Baker’s heart went cold; Bowen Carter was determined to make a fool of her, just because of his unfounded suspicions!
Angry, resentful, but what’s the point?
She took a deep breath and, amidst the playful sneers of the guests, regained her position in front of the hotel where she was not in the way.
Guests came in waves and many told others in front of Tess Baker about her trying to get in without an invitation and she had become the butt of their jokes.
There were very few guests who knew Tess Baker from work, but they didn’t say hello to her and treated her like a total stranger.
Because of her ‘cheating’ thing, they are afraid of helping her and offending Bowen Carter, right?
Tess Baker is not in the habit of sticking her neck out, so she simply pulls out her phone and plays Tetris to pass the time. How others mocked her, she ignored it all.
“Did you forget your invitation sticker?”
Tess Baker looked up and saw Dennis Gate standing in front of her in a white suit, his handsome appearance attracting numerous stares.
Tess Baker hmmed, and before he could say anything else, he was dragged to the staff.
Staff, “Young Master Gate, who is this?”
“Mrs. Carter,” Dennis Gate let go of Tess Baker as if nothing had happened, “she forgot her invitation.”
The staff is full of surprise that this person in the Volkswagen is really Mrs. Carter. she is really not favored in front of Master Carter!
Most of the others had the same idea as him.
After checking the invitations, Tess Baker went into the hotel lobby with Dennis Gate, “Aren’t you afraid people will get the wrong idea if you do this?”
With all the fuss about the two of them, isn’t he afraid of Bowen Carter’s retaliation?
“Did we do anything out of bounds?” Dennis Gate inclined his head, his ever-so-gentle handsome face tinged with a bit of sharpness.
Tess Baker shook her head.
Dennis Gate, “So why be afraid of people seeing it? I don’t want to be like those who know you and just leave you out there alone to be mocked just for the sake of so-called fame.”
He couldn’t do it.
It was harder for him to see her being sarcastic than it was for her.
“Thank you senpai, but let’s go separately.” Tess Baker said helplessly, senior thought so much about her, she had to think about him too.
If they go in together, there is no telling how many people will talk about it, she doesn’t care, but she doesn’t want to get the seniors involved!
After saying that, she turned around and followed the route the staff said to go towards the place where the banquet was held.
“Wait a minute.” Dennis Gate caught up with her, his eyes full of guilt, “David pushed you the other day and almost caused you and the baby to …” He couldn’t say the word ‘die,’ “I’m sorry.”
David pushed Tess Baker, he did not stay to help Tess Baker for the Gate family future, if something really happened to Tess Baker, he dare not imagine how he will spend the rest of his life!
“It’s the same as what the senior told me in the beginning, I never blamed you, so how can I say I forgive you?” Tess Baker would feel the aftermath of the thought of her and the baby almost dying, but then feel a lot lighter at heart.
The life she owed to Master Gate had been weighing heavily on her heart, and this time she had paid it off!
Dennis Gate opened his mouth to say something, but in the end just put a box with a diamond necklace in it into her hand.
Tess Baker just looked at it, then closed the box and re-handed it to him, “Senior, so valuable …”
“It’s not a gift to you.” Dennis Gate interrupted her, “This is a charity dinner, did you forget to prepare the auction items to be donated?”
“!” Tess Baker’s throat was a little dry, there were actually so many back moves waiting for her, Bowen Carter was ruthless.
Dennis Gate was afraid that she would have a burden in her heart if she received something, “I prepared two auction items, anyway, they are going to be donated out, you donate or I donate the same.”
Tess Baker refused at this point would be pretentious, “Then thank you, sir.”
She owes the seniors so much that she doesn’t know how to repay them!
“We’ve known each other for so many years, there’s no need to be so formal, why don’t you go in first, I’ll go in after a while.” Dennis Gate habitually wanted to touch her head, but halfway through his hand, he naturally withdrew it.
When she left, he took out his cell phone and dialed, “Prepare another auction item for me and deliver it to the charity dinner in half an hour.”
Puppy White stood behind the pillar and looked at him with a complicated expression. Should she praise him for his long-standing love or his thin-skinned love for Mrs. Carter?
After Tess Baker entered the charity dinner alone, those who had seen her waiting outside immediately looked over – she actually did come in?
But so what if she comes in, what good can a person like her who drives a 100, 000-plus Volkswagen donate?
“Ma’am, please place the items you would like to donate here.” The staff said.
Tess Baker took out the small box Dennis Gate gave her and put it on the tray amidst those who were looking at the joke. And filled out some information as requested by the staff.
When she saw the information about the donated item, she frowned and said, “The diamond necklace was passed on to me by someone else, the information is not very clear to me.”
“Diamond necklace?” The stylishly dressed woman came over at some point and exaggeratedly covered her mouth, “Madam, you’d better let the jewelry appraiser take a look, it’s not good to let the auctioneer buy a fake!”
How could someone who drives a 100, 000-plus Volkswagen donate such an expensive item?
