Chapter 394 – It’s Not Certain Who Owe Who
“I told you, I didn’t kill Grandpa, don’t you understand human language? It was Tess Baker who caused Grandpa to have a stroke and he died, it had nothing to do with me!” David Gate’s eyes were red and he was in a frenzy, and he tried to hit Linda Mark.
If Tess Baker hadn t caused Grandpa to have a stroke, how could Grandpa have gotten emotional over a few words from her, and if he hadn t gotten emotional, how could … it have all been caused by Tess Baker!
Linda Mark avoided her hand and pushed her to the ground, “David Gate, people do what people do, Tess doesn’t owe you the Gate family, and you shouldn’t take things too far!”
“It’s Tess Baker! If she hadn’t seduced my brother, how could my grandfather have died and how could the Gate family have become what they are now? It’s all because of Tess Baker!”
David Gate deadpans Tess Baker, why didn’t this vixen die that time at the bar? If she died, nothing would happen!
Tess Baker wrinkled her eyebrows and didn’t make a sound, there are times when explanations are simply useless, people like David Gate, even if she explains, the other party won’t listen.
Otherwise, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point.
But Linda Mark couldn’t swallow the anger, “What’s Tess got to do with Master Carter misunderstanding your brother’s relationship with Tess Baker and suppressing The Gate Group?”
She looked askance at David Gate, “Even if you think Tess is to blame for this, you almost killed Tess twice that time at the bar, and then you and your brother set Tess up to steal The Carter Group’s confidential information … If you really do the math, who owes who? Who owes who is still not certain!”
And Tess has been taking care of Senpai after he was hospitalized in a car accident, something she didn’t even talk about.
“You, an outsider, know nothing!” David Gate’s voice was a bit shrill from being overly drawn out, “If you were me, you wouldn’t forgive Tess Baker either. Tess Baker is a disaster, and nothing good has happened to us in THE Gate family since she showed up!”
Linda Mark, “…”
She had just said so much without saying a word, she should have known better than to do what Tess did and not say a word to save wasting her breath.
At this time, the nurse pushed the door and came in, saying with great dissatisfaction, “Do you know this is a hospital? Keep your voice down, if you don’t mind the noise, the other patients will still find it noisy!”
“She’s the one making the noise, not us.” Linda Mark pointed her chin in the direction of David Gate.
David Gate, however, ignored her and stared hard at Tess Baker, “Vixen like you, I wish you a broken son, and it’s best if your oldest son dies to pay for my grandfather’s life, just like the youngest!”
Linda Mark stiffened and subconsciously looked over at Tess Baker, nervous as hell.
“David Gate, you’d better speak with a little bit of tongue in your cheek.” Tess Baker’s brow furrowed, she wasn’t superstitious about curses, but David Gate had gone too far in cursing her two children over and over again!
David Gate grunted and slammed the door.
The nurse muttered something about being unqualified before saying with a sympathetic face, “Grandma Master Carter, we’re also … about the baby.”
“Where is he, I want to see him.” Tess Baker would love to see the baby and wonders if the baby looks more like her or Bowen Carter.
The nurse smiled twice, not knowing what to say.
“This … is not a good time to see the baby!” Linda Mark’s mind raced, “The baby was born just over eight months ago, premature and not very well, so it has to be taken care of by a medical professional first.”
“Not well? What’s wrong with him?” Tess Baker asked anxiously.
“No … what’s the big deal.” Linda Mark looked helpfully at the nurse, who explained a bunch of things professionally, and finally, on Linda Mark’s cue, summed it up in one sentence, “It’s no big deal, but it’s not a good time to bring him to see you.”
Tess Baker nodded, “Nothing major is good.”
Linda Mark was relieved to see her believe.
“I’ll go over and see him then.” Tess Baker was ready to get up, the baby wasn’t well enough to bring to her, she could go see the baby.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Linda should have seen the baby. She hasn’t seen this baby yet!
Linda Mark was sweating at the tip of her nose, how could she refuse?
…
The Carter Group, Office of the President.
Bowen Carter sat upright in his chair, signing-pen in hand. But it had been nearly an hour since the papers had been opened, and he had only read two pages, and his mind was full of the scene of those who had made such a scene when he left the civil office.
Something really happened to her …?
He put down the signing pen and pulled out his cell phone, his hand hovering over the number that had been docketed Tess Baker. But it doesn’t pause for a second before moving away, and he tosses the phone onto the table, rubbing his brow.
How is it possible that they went for a divorce and something happened to her?
She’s just playing this to get his sympathy because he loves her, but he won’t be played by her anymore!
Knock knock!
There was a knock on the door.
“Come in.” Bowen Carter said externally, his eyes falling on the open file, only to realize he’d written Tess Baker’s name where it needed to be signed.
He took a pen and scratched out the word Tess Baker, shredded the document, and threw it in the trash.
ASSISTANT just happened to see this scene as soon as he came in, sensing that the president was in a bad mood, he spoke with a bit of caution, “President, the leakage has been taken care of, no damage has been done.”
“Uh-huh.” Bowen Carter nodded somberly, “You …”
He stopped just short of starting, his handsome brow furrowed.
“Anything else I need to do?” ASSISTANT asked.
Bowen Carter pulled out a new file and flipped it open, “No.”
What happened to Tess Baker had nothing more to do with him!
“I have a few more things to tell you.” ASSISTANT weighed the wording, “The old man’s side said that the matter of your divorce should not be announced to the public for the time being, as it would not be a good influence on the public.”
The matter of the president’s mother forcing the president’s wife to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau for a divorce is making a lot of noise, if the president’s divorce is announced to the public now, it will affect the president’s image and is not good for The Carter Group.
Bowen Carter blushed hard, but didn’t refuse, “And?”
“The president s wife went into premature labor and gave birth to a … dead baby. The old master’s intention is to let you go to the hospital to see the lady, take a few photos to report it, which is also considered to be an explanation to the public.” ASSISTANT said.
Bowen Carter’s eyes flashed with panic, a birth? A baby? A dead baby? She wasn’t acting? Would it be too much for her to handle knowing she had a dead baby?
He hastily dropped the signing pen, grabbed his jacket and struck out.
ASSISTANT ran all the way after him and let out a long sigh.
The president is considered to be planted in the hands of the lady, she has betrayed the president twice, the president is actually so worried about her!
…
Hospitals.
“Dead … child dead?” Tess Baker couldn’t stop her eyelashes from fluttering, didn’t cry, just her eyes were red.
Linda Mark looked heartbroken and softly comforted, “Don’t think too much, get well and the little bastard will come over to see you later.”
“How …” Tess Baker said with a sob as soon as she opened her mouth, trying to keep her voice from trembling, “how did he die?”
How could a little life that had been in her belly for more than eight months, and had been kicking her tummy very vigorously for the past few days, die?
