Chapter 312 – Don’t Bully Mommy
Tess Baker pushed the man beside her, didn’t push, and was instead held tight.
“Mike’s right next to you, don’t mess around.”
But Bowen Carter was oblivious.
Tess Baker’s pupils crinkled as her son and they came close.
“Mommy …” the little one’s milky voice suddenly rang out.
A cold sweat broke out on Tess Baker’s forehead in shock and she tried to slow her voice down so she didn’t sound different, “What’s wrong, Mike?”
“Don’t bully mommy …” the little one murmured and rolled over, not long before the sound of even breathing came.
Tess Baker s heart hanging in her throat fell back into her stomach, it turned out that Mike was not awake, just talking in his sleep … son dreamed of protecting her ah! The corners of her eyes were a little sour, she took a deep breath and forced the tears back.
She didn’t want her son to see this!
Bowen Carter’s expression could not be seen in the darkness as he got out of bed and went to the restroom, where the sound of clattering water rang out not much later.
…
The next day, when Tess Baker was going to visit Dennis Gate in the hospital, the little guy insisted on tagging along.
Lucy Kid laughed at the sarcastic comment, “Both mother and son are thinking of young Master Gate, those who don’t know will think that young Master Gate is Miss Baker’s husband and Cable’s daddy!”
She said this specifically to Bowen Carter.
Bowen Carter’s heart is already in the dilemma, and now by her so directly pointed out, handsome face a dark cloud.
Zhou Ruoyi saw that his face was not good-looking, and continued, “Didn’t The Carter Group leak the secret a while ago?” She pointed her chin in the direction of Tess Baker and the little one, “Who knows if Miss Baker has turned her elbow and helped young master Gate do something untoward!”
“Don’t believe anything without evidence!” Knowing that Wendy Summer said this on purpose, but Tess Baker still stuttered in her heart and lowered her eyes to curb the emptiness under her eyes.
Since the senior had already gotten that project, it would be better for her to get that potted plant back earlier, but she was restricted from going out lately, so how she was going to go about getting the potted plant back would take some thought.
Lucy Kid bristled and glanced at Bowen Carter, she’d said it all and Master Carter actually wouldn’t suspect Tess Baker at all, there was no point in her continuing.
“Let’s go!” Bowen Carter took the coat handed over by the maid and put it on, and walked out with a grimace. When he reached the door, Tess Baker had not followed, he turned his head and was already a little impatient, “Still not following, don’t you want to go to the hospital to see Dennis Gate?”
In the past, if anyone had said he would care about a woman who had another man in her heart, he would have thought it was a pipe dream!
“Aren’t you going to work?” Tess Baker didn’t move a step as she pulled an unhappy-looking little one in her hand.
Bowen Carter’s face was as cold as frost, “If you keep nagging, you won’t have to go to the hospital ever again!”
The little guy puffed out his cheeks, furious that scummy daddy treated mommy so poorly and was no comparison to Uncle Gate! It would have been nice if Uncle Gate had been with Mommy in the first place!
Afraid that Bowen Carter really wouldn’t let himself go to the hospital, Tess Baker pulled the little guy along and hurried to keep up with him.
The family went to the hospital, but this time they didn’t even make it into the hospital room, they were blocked by David Gate, “Master Carter, there’s something you have to make clear to me: you’re suppressing The Gate Group, again, because of my brother’s relationship with Tess Baker, aren’t you?”
The Gate Group had managed to get the Sunshine Project to recover a little bit of energy, but in just one day, it was beaten back, and all the efforts made during this period of time were all in vain!
Tess Baker was shocked, Bowen Carter was suppressing The Gate Group again? She frowned slightly, if that was the case, wouldn’t she get that program for her senior for nothing?
“Nothing to do with Tess Baker.” Thinking of The Gate Group’s unseemly calculations, the bottom of Bowen Carter’s eyes were filled with disdain, “Your brother dared to calculate The Carter Group, so he should pay the price he deserves!”
Tess Baker’s pupils crinkled and she lowered her eyes, her heart beating so fast it seemed to burst out of her chest.
What did Bowen Carter mean by that? Had she been found out about the potted plant she’d put in for the seniors? No, if the potted plant was found out, Bowen Carter would never let her off lightly!
What’s going on here? Did you plan The Carter Group before the accident? How? Did you use the plant? No, we have to get the potted plant back as soon as possible, or we’ll be found out sooner or later!
“Mommy, why are you sweating so much, are you not feeling well?” The little guy asked worriedly as he wrapped his arms around Tess Baker’s thigh.
Hearing this, Bowen Carter followed suit, looking over with a bit of inquiry.
Tess Baker avoided his gaze so he wouldn’t notice anything out of the ordinary, “A little tired from the walk, it’s fine.”
“Then Mommy will sit down first.” The little one pulled her along and sat her on the bench outside the hospital room. She subconsciously glanced up at Bowen Carter as she sat down, and the glance just met his.
“!” His dark, seemingly penetrating gaze caused Tess Baker’s entire body to stiffen, and she held her breath, her heartbeat deafening, and her hands, which were casually resting on either side of her legs, trembling uncontrollably.
Bowen Carter isn’t going to find out anything, is he?
In the midst of her apprehension, David Gate, who had been in a daze, came back to his senses and shouted at Bowen Carter, “No way, how could my brother be counting on The Carter Group? Master Carter was too upset with the notion of suppressing The Gate Group for a woman to crown my brother with that charge, right?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“I repeat, this has nothing to do with Tess Baker.” Bowen Carter’s eyes were already colored with displeasure, “No strength to accept retaliation, better put those calculating little thoughts away!”
