Chapter 460 Can you let her go?
“It’s your fault!” The little guy glared at him indignantly, then like a deflated ball, “I’m going to stay with mommy, she’s been very unhappy for the past few days, and I read on the internet that women are prone to post-partum depression.”
“… Go ahead.” Bowen Carter wanted to stay with Tess Baker, too, but the thought of the anger that burned under her eyes when she looked at him laced a few raspy notes into her cool voice.
But instead of leaving immediately, the little one hesitated and said, “Daddy, if Mommy is unhappy every day, can you let her go?”
Without waiting for Bowen Carter’s reply, he added hastily, “I could have stayed with you and Great Grandpa, just let Mommy and my sister go, and I’ll do as I’m told!”
He’s really scared that Mommy will get post-partum depression. I’ve heard that a lot of people who get depression commit suicide, it’s scary!
Bowen Carter’s brow furrowed and his fingers curled unconsciously.
The little guy looked straight at him, his eyes filled with begging and anticipation.
Duh–
The cell phone vibrated suddenly.
Bowen Carter pulled out his cell phone and looked at the caller ID, it was from ASSISTANT.
“President, the matter of the young lady being swapped has been investigated clearly: David Gate transferred a million dollars to the doctor of midwifery and a few nurses, allowing them to switch the identity of the young lady and the dead baby, and also asked them to say that the dead baby was requested by the lady to be killed by them, that is … “ASSISTANT said here stopped, do not know what to say.
Bowen Carter clutched his cell phone and caught the words in a hoarse voice, “Just so I’d get the wrong idea about Tess Baker.”
His mistrust of Tess Baker didn’t just hurt her, it became a means for others to use him to hurt her …
If he had been able to put a little more trust in Tess Baker, the others’ calculations could not have succeeded, but it was too late to say anything now.
The little guy stood looking at him and subconsciously stepped back.
Jagged Daddy looked sad, angry, and something else he couldn’t describe, all in all Jagged Daddy looked a little scary like that.
“One more thing, Elder Gate would have been pissed off at David Gate in the first place, actually because she fell for the tricks of a couple of little taiyans, got addicted to drugs, and had her body picked up by several punks.” Assistant said.
While investigating the matter of the lady dropping the bag, he inadvertently bumps into Eric Si threatening David Gate with the matter.
Bowen Carter’s eyes were dark, “Sure David Gate did it?”
“Uh-huh.” “The doctor who delivered the baby, the nurse, and the dead baby’s own mother were all witnesses, and in addition to that, they all received a sum of money on their own bank cards on the day of the lady’s birth, transferred by David Gate.”
“Now that the midwife and a couple of other nurses are at the hospital and David Gate and her fiancé Ben Si are shopping at the Patagonia mall, what are you going to do with them?”
…
Tess Baker was standing by the window when Aunt Zhang came to put out the white roses.
“Tess, do you think it’s better to put this flower on the windowsill or on the bed?” Aunt Zhang had already arranged the flowers into a vase, the translucent celadon vase set off the white roses pure and beautiful.
Tess Baker turned around, she stood against the light and it was hard to read her expression, “You give me the flowers, I’ll put them up myself.”
Aunt Zhang let out a sigh and handed the vase to her. She opened the window and without hesitation threw the flowers and vase down the window.
A gust of wind blew, a little cooler.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Tess Baker closed the window without even looking at the white roses downstairs.
“This …” Aunt Zhang looked complicated.
Tess Baker, “You go ahead and get out, I’d like to be left alone with it for a while.”
After saying that, she turned around again and looked out the window. In fact, there were only a few trees, lawns and stone paths outside the window, nothing much to see.
But that’s how she likes to look at it these days, with her head in the air.
Aunt Zhang looked at her back, opened her mouth, and finally sighed and walked towards the door. She opened the door just as Bowen Carter came in.
“Sir, Tess said she wanted to be alone for a while.” Aunt Zhang whispered.
Bowen Carter frowned slightly, “I see, you can leave now.”
“You and Tess have a talk and try not to fight.” Aunt Zhang advised worriedly, looking back at Tess Baker again before leaving.
Tess Baker knew Bowen Carter was coming, but just didn’t want to turn around, still looking out the window.
“The person who switched our daughter and falsely accused you has been found.” Bowen Carter said.
Tess Baker was stunned for a moment and turned to look at him; she couldn’t guess who would go to such lengths to count her out.
Bowen Carter, “David Gate.”
“… So that’s her.” Tess Baker froze for a moment before speaking softly.
She really wondered sometimes where David Gate got all this hatred for her from. Maybe it was because of The Gate Group being suppressed?
But Senpai and David Gate had counted on her once with a wire, and she didn’t seem to owe them anything.
Bowen Carter walked up to her, her reflection in his pupils, “What do you want to do with her?”
“Deal with it?” Tess Baker snorted, sarcastically, “Bowen Carter, do you think you’re God and can manipulate people however you like?”
Did he seriously consider what to do with her when he misunderstood her in the first place?
Bowen Carter met her sneering gaze, his thin lips moving but not uttering a sound.
“But there’s no denying that the feeling of being able to ‘handle’ people at will is exhilarating.” Tess Baker lowered her eyes, hiding the color underneath them, “Bowen Carter, why don’t you help me with David Gate.”
She hated Bowen Carter’s bullying, but eventually that’s what she became.
She lifted her eyelids to look at him, no emotion in her eyes, “As long as you don’t let her die and don’t break the law. When it’s done, count me as owing you a favor.”
David Gate should never, ever have touched her baby!
Bowen Carter wanted to say ‘I did all this for you willingly, you don’t have to owe me a favor’, but in the end just nodded and said nothing.
Given her nature, it would be better if he didn’t say that.
…
At 11:50 p. m. that day, the authoritative media outlet, Knowwell, broke three major hot news stories.

The news has just been reported and reprinted and promoted by a number of marketing organizations, and the internet is already buzzing.
[Give me the lower half of your body] So it’s really David Gate, huh? I saw someone who looked like David Gate in a bar more than half a month ago, several men fucked her in the men’s restroom, that scene … tsk, I thought I was looking at the wrong guy!
[Love you] the Gate family and the Si family are already engaged, now that this is reported, it’s impossible for Ben Si to marry David Gate again, I bet a hundred dollars (dog’s head)
