Chapter 270 You don’t really care about him
The two went downstairs and sat facing each other.
Before Tess Baker could say anything, Lucy Kid suddenly plopped down on her knees in front of her, teary-eyed, “I know that Bowen still loves me but uses you as a stand-in, and that makes you hate us. But we truly love each other, please fulfill us, don’t use grandpa to force Bowen anymore!”
“Don’t stop, keep playing, those words don’t impress me.” Tess Baker asked Aunt Zhang to heat up a glass of milk and sipped on it, looking at Lucy Kid as if she were a fool.
Lucy Kid’s face expression froze for a moment before she went on to cry, “Actually, you shouldn’t hate Bowen, even if he’s just using you as a stand-in, you should feel lucky. If it wasn’t for Bowen, how could you wear such expensive clothes and eat such expensive food and drive such expensive …”
“Stop.” Tess Baker put down her cup, her mouth full of mockery, “Is Ms. Sheng making a prose?”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“I …”
“You don’t have to say anything. If you really cared about Bowen Carter, you would have watched over him at the hospital instead of telling me how much he loves you in front of me, which makes me think … well, you don’t really care about him, you just want the Mrs. Carter position.”
Hearing that Tess Baker guessed part of the truth, Lucy Kid’s face went white and she choked on her words.
If picking on Master Carter worked, she wouldn’t have come to Tess Baker at all, but every time she stood in front of Master Carter, she had the illusion of being seen through!
Tess Baker was getting disgusted with this white moon in Bowen Carter’s mind, “Ms. Sheng can go if there’s nothing else.”
Every time she watches Wendy Summer act, she gets tired for her!
“One more thing: Miss Baker, Bowen really loves me, and even if I’ve been away from him for ten years, it’s still me that’s on his mind. So I’d like you to stop snitching on the old man to get him to punish Bowen, I’d be heartbroken.” Lucy Kid stood up and patted her knee.
Tess Baker laughed back in exasperation, “Who gave you the confidence to say those shameless things with a straight face?”
She stood up, moved over to Lucy Kid, lowered her voice, and sneered, “With your junior status?”
So what if Bowen Carter likes Wendy Summer, Wendy Summer has no business stepping on her!
“I … am not a junior, Bowen has always liked is me, only he thought I was dead, so he found you as a substitute, you are the junior only.” Lucy Kid bit her lips, the bottom of her eyes flooded with watery light, looking pathetic.
The more the maid listened, the more she was annoyed, this Wendy Summer when the mistress also when out of confidence, actually dare to repeatedly run to Tess and shout!
Snap!
Tess Baker slapped Lucy Kid in the face.
She hates three things in her life: one, being called a double. Two, having someone run up to her and act pathetic. Three, being a mistress.
It just so happens that Wendy Summer does all three of these things one by one every time she runs to her!
“You … you actually hit me? Aren’t you afraid that Bowen will divorce you?” Lucy Kid covered her cheeks, tears baring down.
Tess Baker sneered and ignored her, “Send her away!”
She’s so sick of disgusting headstrong, cheeky women like Wendy Summer!
Lucy Kid struggled not to leave, “Miss Baker, you haven’t promised me what I told you!”
“Get her out of here.” Tess Baker ignored her words, and did not forget to remind the maids, “She told me she was pregnant, be careful when you move her, if you accidentally miscarry and get blackmailed, don’t blame me for not warning you!”
“No, I’ll go by myself!” Lucy Kid cherished the baby in her belly, which was the only thing that held her to Mr. Duke, and she left covering her not-so-subtle pregnant belly.
Tess Baker wasn’t sure if Wendy Summer was pregnant, but now that she’s in such a naturally protective stance, where’s the doubt?
Kids … Heh, that’s what Bowen Carter said only she was worthy to have his kids!
It’s ridiculous!
Tess Baker leaned back on the couch and sighed. Wendy Summer had a baby too, and what was she going to do if her mother-in-law insisted that Wendy Summer be the Carter family daughter-in-law?
Wendy Summer has such a heavy heart, she would never leave her two children in her hands!
…
Hospitals.
“Doctor, how is my son? Why did he suddenly faint? Is he awake now? Is it serious?” Carter’s mother came as soon as she received the news, and her eyes were red at this point.
Mike is in good health and has basically never been in any hospital since he was a kid, so how did he faint this time?
Carter’s father is also watching the doctor closely, he and his wife can only one child, can not be accident!
Doctor, “The injury on Master Carter’s back, coupled with the fact that he didn’t rest properly for a few days in a row, that’s why he fainted. But you two don’t need to worry too much, there’s nothing serious wrong with Master Carter, just rest well.”
“What?” Carter’s mother’s decibel level shot up, “Mike has an injury on his back? What kind of injury, how come I didn’t know?”
How can Mike have a wound on his back when he’s been taught self-preservation since he was a kid?
The doctor coughed dryly, the luxury entanglements are many, he is better to say a few words less.
“Okay, I got it, thanks doctor.” Carter’s father gave Carter’s mother a wink, telling her not to ask any more questions.
When the doctor left, Carter’s father turned to ask Aunt Zhang and the other servants waiting outside the door, “Sister Zhang, what do you think, what’s going on?”
“Mister’s incident last night angered the old man, who hit Mister with his cane. As for the matter of mister not resting well lately, I am not very clear about it.” Aunt Zhang said with a lowered brow.
Carter’s mother was disgruntled, “Mike rests every day at Beauty Garden, why isn’t he resting well, can you not know? Is it that Tess Baker is pregnant and still restless, pestering Mike all night?”
Without waiting for Aunt Zhang to answer, she grunted, “One look at her, I know she’s not a good one, where could she cause Mike to have a bad night’s rest all night because of something like this?”
Carter’s father frowned, “How do you talk?”
“What’s the matter, Tess Baker doesn’t look like a decent girl, where is there a good girl from a good family who marries and then has an affair with another man?” Carter’s mother was getting more and more dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law, she was really blind back then to agree to such a vixen marrying Mike!
Aunt Zhang waited for the two to finish before saying, “Mister has not been resting on the Beauty Garden side for a while recently, probably … probably resting at Miss Sheng or Miss Cole.”
Carter’s mother had just said that Tess Baker had been pestering Bowen Carter all night long when Aunt Zhang came in with this, and her face flushed red.
At this point, Carter’s father asked, “What happened last night?”
Dad usually loves Mike the most, when he’s angry, he’ll scold him at most, how could he hit him this time?
Aunt Zhang then told the story of last night, and then the events of the night of the bar, Carter ‘s father heard, finally understand why the old man hit.
But Carter’s mother still felt aggrieved on behalf of her son, “If it’s such a small matter, why would Tess Baker go to the old man to complain? If she really thinks of Mike as her husband, she won’t be able to bear to see Mike being beaten, I think she is just thinking of the wild man outside!”
Tess Baker looks exactly like Wendy Summer, why does she look so evil? She must have hooked up with a lot of men!
When she thought of Tess Baker giving her son a hat, she wanted to change her daughter-in-law quickly, but the old man just wouldn’t agree!
