Spoil Me More, Dear Huaband

Bowen Carter’s cool voice sounded from behind him, “What were you going to say?”

Tess Baker stiffened, her mind spinning quickly, “Oh, that, I was just going to say that whoever The Carter Group leaked the information to, that’s who you can start with.”

It’s so simple that Bowen Carter could have thought of it herself, whether she said it or not.

Just … if Bowen Carter started checking from the seniors’ side, there was no telling how long it would take to get to her, and she had to find a way to get that potted plant out in a hurry!

Tess Baker’s mind was racing when Bowen Carter suddenly said something out of the blue, “You think Dennis Gate is a good guy? Compared to me.”

She was silent.

It was a difficult question to answer, and if the answer was not to Bowen Carter’s liking, he would be furious and angry again. But in her heart, compared to Bowen Carter, the senior was really a good man.

At the very least, the senior would do things in consideration of other people’s feelings, and wouldn’t force a person to do something they didn’t like.

Bowen Carter didn’t wait for her answer either, taunting, “Dennis Gate used my company’s information to steal my company’s project and tried to plant the leak on my company’s executives, you call him a good guy?”

“Planted?” His embrace was as hot as ever, but Tess Baker felt a chill run through her body, “Are you sure that Senpai really planted someone?”

She remembered that the senior had always been a gentle person who didn’t fight and didn’t grab, and what Bowen Carter said really didn’t seem like the senior’s style.

“If he is as good as he thinks he is, do you think he can be the young head of THE Gate family?” Bowen Carter’s tone was sneering, “A person with more ability and no scheming can’t be the leader!”

Tess Baker knew he was right, but the senior … she just couldn t imagine the senior counting on others too!

“What, still think he’s a good guy compared to me?” Bowen Carter spoke again already with displeasure that she was still deluding herself when he had laid out the facts in front of her.

Tess Baker didn’t want to talk about the topic that was weighing her down and asked instead, “Have you … found the person who leaked the information about The Carter Group? If you found that person, what would you do with her?”

The voice grew softer, so small she could barely hear herself.

Bowen Carter didn’t answer, saying coldly, “Go to sleep.”

The one who betrayed him, he definitely made his/her life worse than death! But this has nothing to do with Tess Baker, and he doesn’t want to tell her about it, lest she think he’s hard-hearted.

Tess Baker hmmmed, but her heart hung high. He didn’t answer, but she could feel her voice chill as she spoke of the man who had leaked The Carter Group’s information, and he wasn’t going to let the person who had leaked the information off easy.

She pressed herself against his chest, growing more and more weak, she couldn’t afford his revenge, she just had to get that potted plant out of the house as soon as possible!

Neither of them spoke again, and the room was quiet with only the sound of their breaths at different frequencies but exceptionally harmonized. Breaths entangled together, even if nothing is done, there are a few ambiguous and loving.

Tess Baker thought she would be too nervous and restless to sleep with Bowen Carter holding her, but she was only nervous for the first half hour and soon fell asleep.

Listening to her even breathing, Bowen Carter propped his head on one hand and looked at her, the bottom of his eyes were full of tenderness and favor, compared to the usual biting coldness it was like a different person.

He lowered his eyes to look at the sleeping woman in his arms, her features soft, without the sharpness of the day … If only she were as good as she is now when she is awake, he kissed her gently on the forehead, said good night, and hugged her and closed her eyes.

…

The next day.

Tess Baker woke up and stretched out of habit, but halfway through she realized that she still had one of the man’s arms around her waist. She was stunned for a moment, and looked down only to see Bowen Carter still lying beside her, now looking at her with a dark look in his eyes.

Her heart stuttered, and she followed his gaze to the neckline she’d struggled open in her sleep during the night, and her face burned as she rubbed against it.

“You didn’t … go to work today, did you?” Tess Baker straightened her collar and stumbled a little over her words. Obviously the two of them had sat through more intimate things, but she was still blushing from seeing him with such a direct look in his eyes so early in the morning.

Bowen Carter’s voice was raspy with the rasp of just waking up and sounded a little more magnetic than usual, “You’re awake earlier than usual.”

Tess Baker glanced at the time, it was only 6:30 a. m., which was indeed quite a bit earlier than her usual wake up time. Mostly because of a good night’s dreamless sleep, she’d woken up a little earlier today.

She had mixed feelings when she thought about it; she should have been unable to sleep in Bowen Carter’s arms and ended up sleeping better than usual …

While Tess Baker was rambling on, there was a sound of a belt in her ear, and she subconsciously looked over just in time to see Bowen Carter, who was fully clothed in nothing but a pair of Bullet Pants, with one pant leg just worn in.

And that position is, well, awkward.

“Never heard of a man getting a morning erection?” The man’s cool voice was no different than it had been in the past, except that his ears were a little red.

Tess Baker laughed dryly twice and moved away. Heard is heard, but have not seen before, or did not notice Bowen Carter like this. And he usually looks sexually cool, but inside wearing tawdry bullet pants, the morning looks … visual impact is great.

“Come here.” Bowen Carter put on his pants and twisted his head to glance at her.

Tess Baker wondered what he was going to do and wrinkled her nose slightly as she walked up to him. Had she said too much last night, had Bowen Carter gotten suspicious of her?

“Good morning.” Bowen Carter cupped her chin and gave her a peck on her lips, which were as rosy as rose petals.

The kiss was shallow, just a touch of lips, but Tess Baker froze anyway, her body tensing for a moment.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Bowen Carter didn’t wait for her to react, letting go of her and striding toward the door.

Tess Baker stared blankly at his back and subconsciously touched her lips, unable to say exactly what she felt. But such a feeling was not a bad emotion.

“What are you rambling on about …” she knocked her head and shook off all those mixed up thoughts, no matter what, she couldn’t expect anything more from Bowen Carter, it would only make her more miserable.

She got up, washed up briefly, and went downstairs for dinner. By the time she arrived, Bowen Carter, Wendy Summer and Staphen Baker were already sitting at the table, with Staphen Baker staring lustfully at Wendy Summer sitting across from him, his eyes almost glued to each other.

“Staphen Baker!” shouted Tess Baker warningly as she sat down beside him.

Not to mention that Wendy Summer is Bowen Carter’s woman, and even if she isn’t, Staphen Baker shouldn’t have a thing for Wendy Summer just because of that face that looks exactly like hers!

“What are you shouting for in the early morning, you have no education at all!” Staphen Baker rubbed his ears and said unsatisfactorily, “No wonder brother-in-law likes Lucia but not you, where can your mother-tiger nature compare with Lucia’s gentleness!”
