Spoil Me More, Dear Huaband

Chapter 457 Did Master Carter threaten you with the Mark Group?



[Handsome?

[I slept with him and got a marriage license.]

The date the message was sent was in the early hours of the previous morning.

Tess Baker’s heart was beating so fast she quickly scrolled through the chat logs and dialed Linda Mark’s number. The prompt was turned off.

She called several more times, all of which prompted the shutdown.

Tess Baker came downstairs to the dining room, her face hard as hell, “Bowen Carter, I thought you said I could go wherever I wanted.”

Bowen Carter drives Tess Baker to the Mark Family, but Linda Mark isn’t home at all, and the only person in the house is Mark’s mother, who has been emaciated in just a few days.

“Tess, you came over to see Linda, didn’t you?” Mark’s mother smiled, “She’s off on her honeymoon with her husband.”

Tess Baker wants to say something, wants to persuade something, but doesn’t know where to start,

“Don’t you worry about me, your uncle and I are looking away.” Mark’s mother sighed, “Linda can be with whoever she wants to be with, we’ll stay out of it.”

Her voice lowered, “If I hadn’t messed around with your uncle, Linda wouldn’t be in this mess.”

Tess Baker, “I can’t blame you and Uncle, don’t beat yourself up too much.”

“Hey!” Mark’s mother, who had a bunch of things she wanted to say but couldn’t, looked at Bowen Carter, who was standing off to the side, and said, “There’s something I’d like to say to Tess alone, would it be convenient for Master Carter to step back for a moment?”

Bowen Carter frowned, he hadn’t asked his bodyguard to follow him, what if he wasn’t here right now and Tess Baker ran off?

“I have so many toys left here, daddy, help me take them back!” The little one pulled at him and yanked him away hard.

Only when the two were in the room did Mark’s mother take Tess Baker’s hand and whisper, “I really don’t know what’s wrong with you and Linda, netting you this kind of thing …”

Tess Baker tugged at the corners of her mouth and said reassuringly, “Don’t you worry, Linda sent me a picture of that man and he looks like a dedicated man.”

“Dedicated or not you can tell from a picture?” Mark’s mother leered, “I think this Daniel is quite handsome, but like a flirt.”

Tess Baker, “People say that the ones who look at philanderers are very devoted.”

The two of them rattled off a bunch of stuff before Mark’s mother hesitantly asked, “Tess, I heard that there’s a lesbian murderer in the female inmates … you’re locked up in a room with?”

She wanted to ask if the female inmate had bullied Tess, but she couldn’t really ask such a thing.

“I was only in jail for half a day and there was a guy in there who knew me and was always there to protect me, and the woman inmate couldn’t find a chance to bully me.” Tess Baker said.

Her stomach lurched at the thought of Polly King’s disgusting look, and she just felt sick all over, and in a trance she had the illusion of being watched by that disgusting gaze again.

“That’s good, that’s good …,” Mark’s mother patted the back of her hand before voicing the concern in her heart, “the Carter family people did this to you, and you’re going to stay with Master Carter’s side?”

Tess Baker unconsciously clenched her fists, half nodding her head.

Her aunt and uncle had always treated her like their own daughter, and she didn’t want them to worry.

“Tell your aunt the truth, was it Master Carter who threatened you with THE Mark Group and you had no choice but to stay with him?” Mark’s mother asked.

Tess Baker avoided her gaze, “No. As you know, I wanted to marry Bowen Carter the first time I met him, and I’m … still happy to be able to continue my life with him,” she paused, “still.”

“Daddy, the toys aren’t finished, let’s go back!” The little guy tugged on Bowen Carter as hard as he could, but it wouldn’t budge at all.

Bowen Carter looked straight at Tess Baker, a strange light burning in his eyes.

She said she was happy to be spending time with him?

Even though he knew she was only saying this to Mark’s mother, a piece of his chest caved in and his eyes were tender.

Mark’s mother was about to say something, but at the sight of Bowen Carter, she swallowed everything she hadn’t said and blushed a little.

“Auntie, did Linda change her cell phone number? I couldn’t get through to her on the phone.” Tess Baker digressed.

Mark’s mother then withdrew the gaze that had fallen on Bowen Carter, “Well, Tess wasn’t able to get a hold of you and asked me to talk to you when I saw you.”

She gave Tess Baker Linda Mark’s cell phone number, and her eyes fell on Bowen Carter again, “Master Carter, plain as day: did you threaten Tess with THE Mark Group to keep her with you?”

“I have said no, why don’t you believe me?” Tess Baker was afraid that if Mark’s mother pissed off Bowen Carter, he would suppress THE Mark Group, and hurriedly said: a “Bowen Carter’s company has something to do, and is still in a hurry to get back, Auntie, we’ll go back first.”This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

With that said, she didn’t even give Mark’s mother time to react as she pulled Bowen Carter out the door, “Mike follow!”

“Oh-” the little guy waved at Mark’s mother, “Bye Grandma.”

“… Mike bye, tell your mommy daddy to take care on the road and call me back when you get home.” Mark’s mother tried to call out to Tess Baker, but she was walking so fast she was long out of sight.

The little guy hmmm’d and da-da-da-da’d out after him.

From the moment Tess Baker took the initiative to stop Bowen Carter’s hand, he’d been looking down at their joined hands. It was still a little cool, and when he blew on his breath he could see white mist, but there was a warmth in his body.

The corners of his mouth were barely visible as he hooked up a small arc, the bottom of his eyes seemed to be filled with bright stars, and he held her hand in reverse.

But almost as soon as he had gripped her back, she shook off his hand with a cold face and strutted toward the Bentley.

Bowen Carter lifted his hand and watched the sun pour through his fingers, his heart empty.

“Put your hat on.” He dropped his hand and said in a cold voice as he walked away. She was still in her monthly cycle and it was not good to blow.

Tess Baker didn’t even stop for a second, as if she hadn’t heard him.

A flash of helplessness and bitterness flashed within his dark eyes, and he stepped forward, buckled her in, and then opened the car door for her.

He waited for her to get inside before he went around to the driver’s side and got in.

Little Guy, “…”

So Daddy wasn’t going to open the door for him?

He puffed out his cheeks and opened the back door, sat down next to Tess Baker, and slammed it shut.

The car turned on and there was an eerie doldrums in the car.

“Two recent projects have been okay, and I’m ready to work with THE Mark Group.” Bowen Carter breaks the silence as the scenery around him continues to recede.

The little guy blinked and milked his age-inappropriate words, “Are the figures for these two projects okay? What’s the capital profit margin?”

“Enough to double THE Mark Group’s annual net profit.” There was a driving test on this road, and the learner car was slow, and Bowen Carter slowed down to follow.

“Sounds pretty good.” The little guy showed his teeth and went for Tess Baker’s arm, “Isn’t Daddy nice to Grandma and Grandpa?”

“It’s just a slap and a date, he can always change his mind if he’s not happy, and anyway, it’s just preparation, no contract has been signed.” Tess Baker reacted with indifference.
