Chapter 401 I’ll take care of my own business.
“Get Tess Baker!” gasped Carter’s mother, really not understanding, “You’ve been so good to her, what the hell’s she got against being with that THE Gate?”
Hearing about Tess Baker and Dennis Gate had gotten her fired up before, but that was always legend and speculation, but this paternity report was solid proof that Tess Baker had cheated on her!
“I’ll handle my own affairs, I don’t need you to interfere.” Bowen Carter snatched the paternity report with a cold face, his whole body radiating a gust of cold air, and turned around to walk out the door.
Carter’s mother, however, was uneasy and tugged him from behind, “Do you want to handle this on your own, or do you want to harbor her? If you’re still thinking about how to help her at a time like this, you’re really lacking in heart!”
Bowen Carter stiffened and didn’t make a sound, just broke free of her grip and strutted out, the paternity report in his hand, long since crumpled into a ball.
Tess Baker, she’s a real piece of work!
…
Bang!
The loud bang from the door woke Tess Baker, who sat up with some difficulty and looked at the dark figure that had burst through the doorway.
It was already dark, and Linda had gone off somewhere, and the ward, with no lights on, was so dark that it was impossible to see the faces of the visitors.
But even so, she recognized from the blurred figure of the visitor that it was Bowen Carter, and an angry Bowen Carter at that.
Heh, what’s he mad about again?
Did someone say something about her in front of him again?
“What are you doing here?” Tess Baker’s voice was full of exhaustion.
At this point, she’s not asking to get back together with Bowen Carter or anything, she’s just asking to get along and not get entangled with each other!
Bowen Carter didn’t answer, just took a step closer to the hospital bed, the business of leather shoes and floorboards tapping inexplicably a little eerie in the dark night.
“You …” Tess Baker had just opened her mouth when he grabbed her by the neck, and as the choking sensation grew heavier, she saw him bend over, his handsome face pressing closer and closer.
Bowen Carter pushed so hard that the veins in his hands popped up, each word squeezed from the depths of his throat, “Killing the feral bastard and then playing the poor guy, you’ve got a good one!”
Thanks to the fact that he really had a hard day for this child, it turned out not to be his child at all!
Tess Baker had less and less oxygen in her chest and her face was suffocating and she could barely breathe. She clutched at him with both hands in an attempt to break him, but it was all to no avail.
“When were you together? Five years ago, or earlier?” Bowen Carter’s eyes were bloodshot, and each word was asked with extraordinary difficulty.
He had lived for twenty-nine years and had never fallen so far!
Doesn’t she and Dennis Gate laugh at how stupid he is every time they meet?
Tess Baker and his face were almost pressed together, their breath entwined with each other’s, but there was no semblance of ambiguity.
The strength in his hands was increasing, she could even hear the clicking sound of her bones, the strength in his hands just needed to increase a little bit more to break her neck.
No, there was no need for more force, she couldn’t breathe anymore, there was a blackness before her eyes, in a few minutes she would have suffocated.
It’s the first time Tess Baker has been this close to death, but her first thought isn’t fear, it’s worry.
If she did die today, what would people say about Mike, that his daddy suspected her mommy of cheating on him and killed his mommy?
“Why don’t you answer? Now you know you regret it? Huh?” Bowen Carter was going crazy with jealousy, what was it about him that made her betray him so many times for Dennis Gate?
Tess Baker grabbed his hand with all her strength, desperately trying to say something, but all that came out of her throat was a ho-ho-ho sound.
Her face flushed unnaturally, and her struggles became less and less strong.
Is it really … going to die like this?
“What are you doing?!” Just then there was a rush of footsteps. Linda Mark rushed over without even turning on the lights, shoving Bowen Carter out of the way and then gasping for breath as she stepped in front of Tess Baker.
The action was so great that the rice she had just bought fell to the ground, and the fried vegetables and rice and soup spilled all over the floor, splashing onto her and Bowen Carter’s pant legs, but neither of them cared about that at the moment.
“Cough cough cough!” Tess Baker clutched her neck with both hands and coughed so violently that her throat hurt and tears sprang to her eyes.
Linda Mark tried to get her some water, but with Bowen Carter leering at her and her unease with Tess Baker, she ended up having to give Tess Baker a light pat on the back.
Bowen Carter was standing right next to the hospital bed, radiating a strong dark aura, like a demon, full of fury.
“How’s it going? Feeling better? Does it still hurt? Does your throat hurt? Does it hurt anywhere else? Do you need me to call the doctor to take a look at you?” Linda Mark asked several questions in a row, her eyes full of anxiety.
Tess Baker shook her head slowly, having almost slowed down by now, her entire body deflated and her hospital gown soaked with sweat.
Her head was also a sweaty, sticky mess, and she ruffled her hair, her heart even colder as a coolness came over her forehead.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Was Bowen Carter really going to kill her if Linda hadn’t rushed over?
“Master Carter, do you know that Tess just gave birth and her body is still weak?” Seeing that she was really fine, Linda Mark only had time to get angry with Bowen Carter, “It’s fine that you didn’t take Tess to the hospital first time when she was in early labor, it’s fine that you’re not sad that the baby is gone, what did you just want to do? Strangle Tess?”
Even without the lights on, she could see clearly that Master Carter had a fierce look on his face and had clearly dealt a deadly blow!
It’s hard to believe that this man was all honeymoon with Tess yesterday!
Bowen Carter grunted, unable to keep his fists from clenching.
He did just try to strangle Tess Baker, and after he killed her, he killed himself. Even down there, she wasn’t going to get rid of him!
“Sure Tess is in this ward?”
“Yes, Grandma Master Carter recuperated in this ward after giving birth.”
“Why are the lights on so late? No one’s in there?”
“It’s also possible that Grandma Master Carter is asleep, so please try to keep your voice down when you go in.”
At that moment, there was a conversation outside the door, followed by footsteps entering the ward. With a snap, someone turned on the lights, and the whole ward was instantly lit up.
Elder Si, Ben Si, and the nurse looked at the trio in the hospital room with surprise and a look of undisguised embarrassment on their faces.
With so many people inside the hospital room, how come they don’t even turn on a light? They thought Tess Baker was the only one in there, and she was still asleep. …
David Gate, on the other hand, is holding Ben Si’s arm, looking like he’s watching the show. Tess Baker, the vixen, caused her grandfather and the Gate family to become what they are now, and she’s finally getting some justice!
“Master Carter is here too? What a coincidence.” Ben Si smiled and chatted awkwardly, but his heart was filled with apprehension. From the looks of it, it seems that Tess Baker and Master Carter are having a bad time, how can they help their Si family like this?
Bowen Carter swept his cold eyes over the crowd, his eyes rolling back in shock.
The nurse who brought the Si old man’s few people unconsciously took a step back, hurriedly said that there was something else to do, and immediately left.
