Chapter 368 I can’t see it destroyed in my hands
Tess Baker ignored the big stares and re-called to determine Linda Mark’s location and walked straight over.
Linda Mark was sitting on the couch, already drunk, her whole body slumped over the table in a daze. And next to her, besides a waiter, was actually Dennis Gate!
“Linda Mark is drunk.” At the sight of Tess Baker, Dennis Gate’s eyes lit up for a moment and he then stood up.
The two maids stood aside, more than a little embarrassed as they watched the former young grandma stand with her legendary lover.
Because of the potted plant thing, Tess Baker was so diabolical that she didn’t want to see him at all. She ignored him and said to the two servants, “Please help her up and take her to the car.”
She’s got a baby in her belly that’s over eight months old, and she’s too bulky to do this.
Two servants came forward and helped Linda Mark up, one on each side. She’d had quite a bit to drink, her face was flushed, her eyes were all misty, and she was grunting so much that she couldn’t even speak.
Dennis Gate’s amber eyes dimmed for a few moments, and he opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Without another glance at him, Tess Baker took the cell phone handed to her by the waiter, said thank you, and followed the two maids.
When she was almost at the door, Dennis Gate pulled her from behind and said softly, “The Gate Group is our the Gate family’s decades of hard work, I can’t see it ruined in my hands.”
“So you broke your deal with me?” Tess Baker broke away from him and looked up at him, her eyes full of sarcasm.
The two maids stopped beside them holding Linda Mark, heads bowed, not daring to look, but ears not letting go of a single word.
Her gaze made Dennis Gate’s face burn; he’d never done anything wrong to her, and this time it had been a ghostly attempt to get back at The Carter Group in this way.
“Are you going or are you coming in, don’t block the doorway, no quality!” The woman with heavy makeup came in, swept her frivolous gaze over Dennis Gate and whistled.
Tess Baker said sorry and gestured for the two maids to take Linda Mark out with her.
Dennis Gate’s eyes flashed with a nagging look, and he finally followed her, going out the door before calling out to her, “Tess Baker, give me five minutes and let’s talk this through, okay?”
“You guys go wait for me in the car.” Tess Baker frowned and turned her head to instruct the two maids; she didn’t want anyone else around to watch her in the heat of the moment.
With some regret, the two maids helped Linda Mark toward the car.
“I did just want to take down ‘Sunshine’ when I asked for your help in the beginning.” Dennis Gate was afraid to see the mockery in the bottom of Tess Baker’s eyes as he looked away from the crowd that was coming and going not too far away, “But it’s all my fault that Master Carter put The Gate Group down the way it is now.”
“I had a hand in my grandfather’s death, and I had a hand in The Gate Group’s descent into this situation, and everyone in the Gate family, including Mom and Dad, hates me, and I want to make amends.”
He said it softly, slowly, and only looked up at her when he finished, his eyes complex. No matter what, he had used her after all!
Tess Baker looked at him quietly, she understood how he felt, because she owed it to the Gate family and the seniors, and wanted to make it up to them with the same feelings in her heart, guilt, sin, but wanting to make up for it.
But even if she could understand, she couldn’t do it to forgive!
“David Gate, the last person your grandfather saw before he died,” she couldn’t say why she said this to him, maybe she wanted revenge, to let him know that his own grandfather’s death had something to do with his own sister.
Dennis Gate was stunned, his handsome face paled for a few moments, “I know this one, what’s wrong?” Da
“Someone told me that your grandpa … ” Tess Baker had just opened her mouth when Puppy White got out of the car and ran over, “Dennis, why don’t you come to the bar without me? ”
When she finished, she looked warily at Tess Baker and wrapped her arms around him.
“Tried to come over on the spur of the moment, didn’t get around to it.” Dennis Gate looked faint and tried to wrench her hand away, but when he didn’t, he stopped struggling.
Puppy White swept Tess Baker’s sweet face with a touch of concern and a hint of hostility, “Mrs. Carter here for a drink too? You’re pregnant, it’s best not to drink, it’s not good for the baby.”
“Thanks for the reminder.” Tess Baker didn’t say she wasn’t here to drink, nor did she feel the need to explain.
At that moment, Wind Carter also stepped out of Puppy White’s car and smiled as he walked up to Tess Baker and said, “What a coincidence that I ran into my third wife just after returning home, so let’s go back to the old mansion together.”
Tess Baker is a little embarrassed that she has divorced Bowen Carter and that Carter senior is now annoyed with her, doesn’t Wind Carter know that?
He shouldn’t know yet; after all, her divorce from Bowen Carter had only happened a few days ago.
She was thinking about how to say no without being too embarrassed when Wind Carter preceded her with, “It was Third Brother’s idea to have Third Sister-in-law go to the old mansion, it’s kind of related to the baby.”
Hearing this, Tess Baker said yes, then walked to her car and said to the two maids, “You guys go ahead and send Linda back to the Mark Family … forget about it, send her back to Beauty Garden and let her sleep in my room. ”
Linda is so drunk, if my aunt and uncle see her, they’ll be worried again.
The servants answered and drove off.
“Puppy , my third sister-in-law and I will not be here to be a light bulb for you and young Master Gate, so we will go first.” Wind Carter smiled gently, only when looking at Dennis Gate, there was a flash of disgust under his eyes.
Neither Tess Baker nor he had a car, and the two took a cab to the old the Carter family home.
The cab couldn’t get in, and was called off at a gate post a few miles from the old mansion; fortunately, Wind Carter had spoken to the old mansion in advance, and a car was sent there to pick them up.
Tess Baker has been to the Carter family’s old mansion only a handful of times, but even the first time she was here, she wasn’t this nervous.
Bowen Carter wants her to go to the old mansion to talk about the kids? Custody is already with the Carter family, what does he want to talk to her about, the same thing his mom said, that she should never see either child again?
She was a messy mess inside, nervous and scared, and her hands were sweaty.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“Don’t be nervous Third Sister-in-law, no one will dare bully you with Third Brother around.” Wind Carter said with a smile.
Tess Baker smiled and didn’t say anything. How could he defend her when he was still mad at her for betraying Bowen Carter?
He used to protect her in every way, but she was too stupid to ever realize how good he was to her, only seeing his rampage!
The two soon reached the hall, where Master Carter sat on a couch, cane in hand, looking gravely and somberly at Tess Baker and Wind Carter, who had just entered.
Bowen Carter, on the other hand, was sitting on the sofa opposite the old man, sipping his tea and looking the same as he always did. Beside him, there is the little one Tess Baker has been longing for.
“Mommy, I miss you so much!” The little one ran to her with two bright eyes and hugged her thigh tightly.
Elder Carter’s face stunk even more, he was so good to his great-grandson, but he didn’t see his great-grandson being so close to him, little white-eyed wolf!
