Chapter 364 Only you are not qualified
“You and Master Carter are divorced?” Dennis Gate repeated unconsciously; he should have felt sorry for Tess Baker, but he actually had a little snicker at that moment.
Tess Baker, single again.
David Gate ran after him, glaring at Tess Baker before taking his arm, “Brother, don’t forget you have a sister-in-law!”
Her comment embarrassed Dennis Gate, like a secret being blatantly exposed to the sun.
Tess Baker ignored the siblings and walked forward coldly, though she had no idea where she was going.
“Tess Baker, I was really just going to ask for a project at first.” Dennis Gate shouted from the back, a complicated look on his handsome face.
Tess Baker paused, her voice devoid of warmth, “But you ended up using me to steal all of The Carter Group’s big projects for almost three years.”
If the funding hadn’t been unavailable, those projects would have been going on at the same time, and The Carter Group would have lost a lot more than three billion dollars by then!
“Anyone is qualified to criticize brother, only you are not qualified!” David Gate’s face was shady, every word and sentence hated to turn into a knife and stick it on Tess Baker, “If it wasn’t for you, The Carter Group wouldn’t have suppressed The Gate Group, and if it wasn’t for The Carter Group’s suppression, The Gate Group wouldn’t have fallen The Gate Group wouldn’t be in such a state today if it wasn’t for The Carter Group’s suppression!”
“Yeah.” Tess Baker responded with a bitter smile; who was right and who was wrong?
But because of this incident, she had a gap with the senior, and would never trust him as much as she used to is all!
The driver she had arranged on the drip had already arrived. Tess Baker took the call from the other party, confirmed the address with the driver and got in the car to go to the old place she and Linda Mark had told her about – an ancient grilled fish restaurant.
When she got out of the car to pay, she remembered that she didn’t have a penny, and then, to the driver’s skeptical gaze, called Linda Mark and asked her to transfer her eighteen dollars and fifty cents for the fare.
“Not even eighteen and a half dollars, you’re a good mixer!” Linda Mark was at the door by the time she finished paying.
“Actually, even for a penny, I don’t have one.” Tess Baker smiled and went up and gave her a big hug, “Missed you so much.”
So much had happened in the last few days that she desperately needed someone to share it with, and the moment she saw Linda, she finally had a backbone.
“Did you wipe your nose on me? I’m in a new dress I just bought from overseas!” Linda Mark’s mouth was disgusted, but she quickly pulled out a packet of tissues and handed it to her, patting her back.
Tess Baker wiped a tear from the corner of her eye and wiped it with a tissue before ruffling her hair back and breaking into a smile as big as it could be.
The two entered the store together and asked for a private room.
The grilled fish takes a while to cook, and the two of them eat the few small dishes that come up first and talk about what’s happened to Tess Baker in the last few days.
At first Linda Mark could manage to eat while eating even if she was shocked, but by the time she got to the back, she was so shocked that she put down her chopsticks, “You … you’re a member of Si’s family?”
Tess isn’t the Baker Family person alright, why is she suddenly the Szell family?
“Surprise, surprise, surprise?” Tess Baker frowned slightly as she thought about what Si’s family was up to and took a few sips of her freshly squeezed orange juice.
Linda Mark skimmed her mouth and clapped her hands a few times, “Surprise no, only surprise! Si family members compared to THE Baker Family people, in addition to the family world a little better, character … tsk, all the same!”
“The Si Group gave money to The Gate Group a while back, pissed off Bowen Carter, and is being suppressed these days. I figure that even if Bowen Carter and I divorce, the Si family will do anything to try to get us to remarry.” Tess Baker took two bites of shredded seaweed and put down her chopsticks.
Linda Mark picked up her words, “And then use you to lift the crisis of the Si family, the Si family played a good game!”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“The two people who had me are nowhere to be found anyway, and I have no intention of going back to the Division.” Tess Baker unconsciously grabbed the corner of her coat, “All I want right now is custody of my two children.”
There was silence in the booth for a long time after those words fell, and both men knew that it wasn’t normally difficult to ask THE Carter family for custody of their two children.
Knock knock!
The waiter knocked on the door and came in and put the grilled Qingjiang fish the two wanted, along with a few other things, on the table. After turning the fire on, the waiter pushed the door and went out.
The two booths faced each other, and when the door opened, Tess Baker and Grag Huck, Linda Mark’s ex-boyfriend, who was in the booth directly across from her, met.
She was about to tell the waiter to hurry up and close the door when she heard Linda Mark grumble with a wry smile, “It’s quite a sinful fate that you can run into your ex-boyfriend over dinner!”
The waiter had closed the door by the time the words fell.
Tess Baker carefully surveyed Linda Mark a few more times and realized that there was nothing unusual about her before she put her heart down. The two of them talked for such a long time, but in the end, Grag Huck cheated on her and got the mistress pregnant … This left Linda with too much shadow in her heart.
“I’m fine, Grag Huck is all in the past, I was absolutely blind when I first laid eyes on him.” Linda Mark poked the fish hard a couple times, picked up a piece of meat, and put it in her mouth.
Whenever she talks about it, Tess Baker gets a little emotional, “It’s not that you’re blind, it’s that he’s too good an actor. He later broke up with you, I really thought at first that you were too good to give him pressure!”
“There’s something to that, too; he had an inferiority complex in front of me and went for the mistress so he could satisfy his pathetic macho one.” Linda Mark no longer has feelings for Grag Huck, but still feels diabolical talking about it.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Thinking it was the waiter, Tess Baker said enter, not realizing that it was Grag Huck who pushed the door in.
Grag Huck himself is relatively clean cut man, not great looking but clean looking. But I don’t know if a change of heart or really a change in him, she felt that the more she looked at him, the more ordinary he became, and he didn’t deserve Linda at all.
“Linda, I know I’m wrong, I was wrong about finding someone to beat you up last time! I’m already planning to divorce that woman, and you’re divorced too, you must still have me in your heart, let’s get back together, okay?” Grag Huck spoke and was about to go up to pull Linda Mark.
Tess Baker frowned, her opponent’s shamelessness was really breaking the bottom line again and again!
“Fuck off!” Linda Mark pushed Grag Huck out of the way and splashed him with her drink, “Do you really think you’re a meat and potatoes guy who loves everyone you meet?”
“Linda, don’t play childish, we’re not young anymore, we’ve been divorced once! You still have me in your heart, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about, we’ll get back together and our days will definitely be better than before.” Grag Huck took a paper towel and wiped the juice on his body, the smile at the corner of his mouth with a few helpless and doting.
Tess Baker used to envy Grag Huck who treated Linda so well, but now, she only feels sick when she looks at Grag Huck. Does this man think that Linda can’t live without him?
