Chapter 337 – Beware of Young Master Gate’s Sister
Tess Baker nodded her head and was about to say goodbye when the self-satisfied fat woman said with a confused face, “That’s strange, Mrs. Carter helped Young Master Gate and Young Master Gate is getting better, how come when I went to the hospital yesterday afternoon, Young Master Gate’s sister referred to you as if she were talking about an enemy? ”
Tess Baker wrinkled her nose and didn’t answer.
David Gate has been looking at her every which way since the death of old man Gate.
She thought that David Gate’s push on her at the bar would cancel out the debt; after all, she’d almost died in one body at the time, but in David Gate’s mind, it was still her who owed Master Gate her life.
Plus David Gate is the future daughter-in-law of the Si family, and she’s tied the knot with Eric Si, David Gate will likewise hold a grudge against her …
“Mrs. Carter may not know the look on the young master’s sister Gate’s face when she mentioned you and your child!” The fat woman exaggeratedly sucked in two mouthfuls of cold air, “Anyway, you have to be more careful when you enter Master Gate’s sister in the future.”
“Thanks for the reminder.” Tess Baker mused about having Bowen Carter set up two more bodyguards for Mike and her.
“You’re welcome!” The fat woman rubbed her hands together and carefully said, “It’s just that my husband recently had a jade business he wanted to talk to a subsidiary of The Carter Group, can you see if you can give a favor?”
“I remember Ms. White mentioning something about you working with the Park family.” Tess Baker wasn’t sure about the business and wouldn’t jump to agree to it.
“Hey, stop it.” The fat woman’s eyebrows drooped, “My husband and I treat the Park family as family, but the Park Group is offering us lower and lower prices.”
“I’ll talk to Bowen Carter about this, whether it will help or not is not certain.” Tess Baker exchanged a few more pleasantries with the fat woman and went back.
At eleven o’clock, Bowen Carter arranged for a car to pick up Tess Baker, and the two met in front of the hospital and were about to enter the hospital as usual when David Gate called while waiting for the elevator.
“My brother is awake, there’s nothing more for you to do, you and Master Carter don’t have to come.” David Gate said without any emotional fluctuation, not even a thank you, and without giving Tess Baker a chance to speak, he directly hung up the phone.
Tess Baker frowned, and when she called again, the other phone kept alerting the call, apparently pulling her cell phone number to harm.
She tightened her lips and looked at the black screen of her phone, having not been this angry in a long time.
“What’s wrong?” The elevator arrived, Tess Baker had no intention of going up, and Bowen Carter escorted her aside.
Tess Baker tossed her cell phone into her bag in annoyance, “David Gate called and said the seniors are awake and that we don’t have to go over there.”
Not that she wanted David Gate to be all heartfelt and thankful, but David Gate had gone too far this time!
“Let’s go up.” Bowen Carter pulled her along and retraced his steps to the back of the crowd waiting for the elevator.
Tess Baker looked at him in confusion.
“You don’t owe Dennis Gate anymore, go see him one last time and say goodbye. No more seeing him alone without my permission.” Tess Baker had a lot of suitors, but Dennis Gate was different, they got too close, and Bowen Carter was always worried that she would one day follow Dennis Gate away.
Tess Baker hesitated but agreed. Since Bowen Carter was so bothered by her contact with the senior, it would be better for both of them if she stopped contacting him.
The two went upstairs together to Dennis Gate’s hospital room, but it was already empty.
A nurse happened to pass by and asked with a smile, “Are you two here to see Mr. Gu again? He has woken up, his sister has discharged him from the hospital and just got on the elevator.”
“Thanks.” Tess Baker said.
The nurse said you’re welcome and went out.
“Go stop Dennis Gate at the elevator,” Bowen Carter called with a sullen look in his eyes.
“Don’t bother.” Tess Baker was quite angry, but felt that there was no need to block people, see the seniors or not, it really didn’t matter, she just couldn’t swallow the anger.
Bowen Carter gave her a sidelong glance, “My woman doesn’t need to be aggravated.”
With that said, he pulled her into the elevator. There were a lot of people inside the elevator, and he always hated making physical contact with people, but he hated it even more when people ran into Tess Baker.
He circled her in his arms, frowning tightly, protective.
A couple of older women in the elevator snickered–
“Look at this young man, he really loves his daughter-in-law!”
“Daughter-in-law looks so beautiful, no wonder the protection so tight, afraid of being seen ah.”
“The little girl is so lucky to have a husband who loves you so much.”
Tess Baker leaned close to Bowen Carter’s arms, listening to the guttural, powerful heartbeat coming from his chest, and then looking at the undisguised envy of several women in the elevator, her eyes couldn’t help but curve and her heart felt as if she’d put a spoonful of honey in it.
When the two got off the elevator, David Gate was arguing with a couple of hospital security guards, “I’ve paid what I had to pay and I’ve been discharged, why are you stopping us?”
“Sorry ma’am, it’s an order from above.” The security chief said.
The two sides argued, David Gate wanted to make a statement, the security side just fought with what they were told to do from above.
Tess Baker was afraid that Dennis Gate would fall into a coma again due to his big mood swings, and hurriedly said to Bowen Carter beside her, “You let the security guards go, there’s no need to stop the senior.”
Bowen Carter tightened his thin lips… was she feeling sorry for Dennis Gate again?
“I’ve assured you many times that I have nothing to do with the senior, if I had anything to do with the senior, the child wouldn’t even know how old it is.” Seeing that he was unhappy, Tess Baker explained helplessly.

“What gives Master Carter the right to get someone to stop my brother?” David Gate followed the security guards’ line of sight to Bowen Carter and Tess Baker, and the look shifted back and forth, finally settling on anger.
Puppy White didn’t dare to look at the two, her sister-in-law had gone too far by crossing the river, she planned to refute her sister-in-law’s opinion, but she was afraid that Dennis would have a big mood swing, so she finally acquiesced.
“You think you can be so arrogant just because your brother is awake and doesn’t need Tess Baker anymore?” Bowen Carter snorted, his words full of disdain, “If I wanted to, I could put your brother back in a coma right now.”
“You you you you are bullying people!” David Gate was so angry that he was stuttering, Master Carter had already victimized her brother once, but he actually wanted to come back a second time, bullying people too much!
Bowen Carter looked down at her and said carelessly, “So what?”
Without waiting for David Gate to argue further, a pale Dennis Gate said, “Thanks to Tess Baker and Master Carter this time, thanks.”
The last three words were said with unusual difficulty.
Master Carter had gotten them the Gate family into this mess, and he was actually thanking the culprit!
“Can’t afford it.” Bowen Carter was austere out of the corner of his eye, “I never wanted to help you.”
“Master Carter didn’t want to help, but when I did, I should say something like thank you, it’s the right thing to do.” As he spoke, Dennis Gate’s attention stayed on Tess Baker with a bitter heart.
In the past, when she stood with Master Carter, she always stood far away, with disgust hidden under her eyes. But she stood close to Master Carter today, and the whole thing was very gentle.
I also wonder what happened between them during the time he was in a coma that their relationship became so intimate.
