Spoil Me More, Dear Huaband

Tess Baker clutched her duffle coat tightly and, without another word, bent out of the room.

Bowen Carter followed her gaze until she left the venue, then moved his eyes to Dennis Gate’s seat, which was empty. The bottom of his eyes were icy and his face was hard to read.

“You want to go to Miss Baker, go ahead, I … I won’t mind.” Lucy Kid said with a droopy brow and good-natured understanding.

A sneer flashed under Bowen Carter’s eyes, “What’s it to me if you don’t mind?”

Lucy Kid’s heart thumped and she subconsciously looked in Frank Duke’s direction. If Master Carter left now, Mr. Duke would blame her for being bad at her job!

She stiffened and waited, and thankfully, Master Carter didn’t leave.

Tess Baker arrived at the door wrapped in her down jacket and scanned for the VW, not finding it. That’s when she remembered that Bowen Carter had asked the driver to watch her enter the venue and then leave.

Now that it’s almost February, the weather is much warmer, but it’s still cold at night, especially when her calves are still exposed.

She frowned and pulled out her wallet, and after half a day of picking at it, she only managed to pull out fifty cents in coins … She sighed heavily, Bowen Carter had done a hell of a job!

“Ma’am, how can I help you?” Seeing that she had been standing in front of the hotel, the hotel staff came out and asked.

Tess Baker looked at the few cards in her bag, hesitated, and said, “No.”

If she took a taxi back and Bowen Carter found out, he would wonder where she got the money from. If he finds out about the millions she’s holding, it’ll be more than worth it!

“Okay, if there’s anything you need to help me with, please let me know.”

“Thanks.”

Tess Baker turned on her navigation and chose to walk, expecting the walk to Beauty Garden to take nearly two hours. It was no big deal to bear it, better than being sneered at at a party!

After standing outside for a while, her calves were already freezing and somewhat numb, she squatted down awkwardly and squeezed her calves, following the phone navigation forward.

Maybe it was too weird to walk around in a tuxedo with a down jacket over it, and the turnaround rate was 100%. Others offered to give her a ride, which she politely declined.

“F*ck, what kind of people, driving a luxury car can just overtake the car?”

There was an angry curse from the driver to his right, and Tess Baker looked up, only in time to see the shadow of a distant car, which appeared to be a Bentley.

Irrelevant to her, she quickly withdrew her gaze and hurried forward – it was too cold.

The heel of the shoe was not high, only about three centimeters, but after she had walked for forty minutes, her feet were still tired, and the position of her heel was painful, so it should be worn out.

The sound of police cars whirring was getting closer and closer, and there was no telling who had been involved in a driving accident or something else.

But she no longer had the heart to think about this, her feet hurt badly and she was cold, she just wanted to hurry back to Beauty Garden now.

“Hey, stop right there!” A neutral male voice came from the police car.

It couldn’t have been a shout out to herself anyway, Tess Baker looked at the data on the map, she’d been walking for over forty minutes, how was she going to be walking for another hour and fifty minutes?

Is the map wrong or is she going too slow?

“The pregnant woman in the down jacket in front of you, that means you, don’t look, you stop!” The man shouted again.

Tess Baker fingered herself backwards, stopped, and saw a familiar traffic cop get out of the car, “Officer, I’m driving Route 11 this time,” she gestured to her legs, “no offense, right?”

“Don’t be poor! You are a pregnant woman, why don’t you hurry home and wander around on the road? If something happens to the baby in your belly, will you regret it then?” The policeman had already met Tess Baker half a dozen times, and he was not polite in his words.

Tess Baker spread her hands, “Of course I’d like to get home early, but I can’t afford a cab.”

“You can’t have money?” The policeman made it clear that he didn’t believe it.

He choked when she pulled out her empty wallet, “Is fifty bucks for a cab enough? Here!”

Tess Baker shook her head, “Officer, could I trouble you for a ride?”

No matter where she took the money for the cab, Bowen Carter would have been suspicious, he was suspicious, and she was afraid he would find out about the millions.

Police, “…”

How can there be such a shameless woman?

Finally, the already off-duty traffic police comrade drove her home in his own car with a black face. When she got off, he slammed the car door, not even giving her time to say thank you, and drove away.

“Tsk!” Tess Baker was going to say a proper thank you, but in that case, she’ll have someone make a banner and send it over some other time.

The banner reads ‘Thank you old driver’ at the top.

“Tess, what took you … so long to come back?” Aunt Zhang came out when she heard the sound of the car and walked up to Tess Baker and asked cautiously.

Mr. arrived home an hour ago, and the first thing he asked was where Tess was, and when she said she hadn’t come back yet, he looked really scared!

Besides, from what Mr. Tess said, it seems like Tess is with that Dennis Gate guy again, is there really something between them?

“You can ask Bowen Carter, I’m sure he knows better than I do.” After sitting in the car for more than half an hour, my legs had warmed up, but my feet were hurting more and more, and Tess Baker was more upset with Bowen Carter!

Aunt Zhang snapped and laughed twice, euphemistically saying, “The car that brought you back just now, why haven’t I seen it before?”

“Is Aunt Zhang starting to doubt me too?” Tess Baker looked fixedly at Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang touched the corner of her coat, her eyes dodging around, her face full of embarrassment. She did trust Tess at first, but Tess was always entangled with this Dennis Gate, so she became a little suspicious.

Tess Baker looked away and smiled sadly, “I didn’t have any money on me, and Bowen Carter didn’t arrange to pick me up, so I had to walk back. Then I met a traffic cop on the way who I had seen a few times and he drove me back.”

The human heart becomes really fast!

Aunt Zhang swore she believed her the other day, and today …

“I don’t mean anything else.” Aunt Zhang still liked her and hastily explained, “But women, after marriage, it’s best to keep a distance from other men, it’s not good to let people misunderstand.”

“Thank you Aunt Zhang for reminding me.” Tess Baker pulled her lip and limped into Beauty Garden.

Cut off all her friends of the opposite sex for a promiscuous man? She can’t do it!

Aunt Zhang followed her with a complicated look and sighed.

In the lobby, Bowen Carter sat on the couch in a pristine black suit, his angular, handsome face hostile, his whole body exuding a strong aura of displeasure.

The servants worked quietly, not daring to make a sound for fear of angering him.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Tess Baker went in, didn’t even look at him, and lifted her leg to go upstairs. The heel is worn out, and it seems to have blood blisters on the foot, and it hurts badly, so it’s better to take care of it quickly.

“Stand still.” Bowen Carter’s hawk-like gaze was locked on her, a darkness in his eyes.
