Chapter 430 – How Many Times Has Tess Been in the Ghosthouse Because of You?
“Huh!” Linda Mark sneered twice, “Tess, as your lover, couldn’t gain your trust even after spending so many years with you, I naturally dare not expect you to trust me.”
She lowered her voice a bit, her eyes were gloomy, “I’m not saying this to make you believe that this child is yours, just to tell you that your paranoia and stupidity caused this child to bear the pain that she shouldn’t have to bear, you don’t deserve to be her father!”
Bowen Carter’s face was unchanged, but his heart stuttered, inexplicably a little uneasy, and his heart beat at a rapid rate.
His brow wrinkled as he tried to suppress this uneasiness in his mind.
“Linda, is this baby … really Carter’s?” Cliff Ford asked hesitantly.
“No!” Linda Mark answered decisively, and at Bowen Carter’s grim look, said angrily, “This child is Tess’s and has no father!”
She looked at Bowen Carter with disgust, as if she was looking at an annoying fly, “Master Carter don’t worry, even if this child is living on the streets, he won’t go to you the Carter family to ask for a penny! Not everyone is interested in your the Carter family’s money!”
Cliff Ford glanced at Bowen Carter and his eyes fell on Linda Mark, “Linda, you …”
“How many fucking times have I told you not to call me Linda, evil, heart!” Linda Mark was fed up to the max, “Master Carter knows exactly where Tess is, so there’s no need to mess around with me, is there?”
Bowen Carter’s brow furrowed, looking at Linda Mark like this, could Tess Baker really not be with her?
“You are not welcome in our THE Mark Family, now please leave!” Linda Mark swept over everyone in the living room and said in a single word, “If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for calling the police and showing no mercy!”
Cliff Ford, not wanting to make a scene between the woman he loved and his best buddy, admonished, “Carter, I don’t think sister-in-law is here with Linda, let’s look elsewhere.”
Upon hearing this, Linda Mark’s face abruptly turned pale as she tugged on Cliff Ford’s sleeve, “Tess is really gone? Not in jail?”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Uh-huh.” Cliff Ford’s heart softened considerably as he glanced at the hand she’d dropped on his arm, “The guy over at the prison said that his sister-in-law had been taken by a fake prison guard, and Carter and I thought you had her.”
Bang!
Linda Mark dropped into the couch, both eyes blank, “How did Tess suddenly disappear?”
She had always thought Master Carter was deliberately looking for trouble, not realizing that Tess had really disappeared … The child had just been found, how could Tess have disappeared?
“How did it come to this?” Mark’s mother was as apprehensive as she was, believing at this moment that Tess Baker was really gone.
Cliff Ford, “Carter and I don’t have a clue, we don’t know what’s going on.”
“How can you not know anything?” Linda Mark rushed up to Bowen Carter and tugged at his shirt with scarlet eyes, “Master Carter, what do you have against me, what are you doing targeting Tess, a woman in labor and a child?”
Bowen Carter’s eyes fell to her hand tugging at his shirt, his gaze like a knife.
“Linda, take it easy, Carter doesn’t know anything either!” Cliff Ford, worried that she’d upset Bowen Carter, yanked her away as hard as he could.
Linda Mark flailed hard in Cliff Ford’s arms, tears streaming from her eyes, but her face was a scathing color, “Tess just had a baby, and you spurred her on with a dead baby, and then you locked her up, and sent her to prison, and now I don’t know where the prison’s phony guards got her . . can her body stand all that torture for a woman in labor who is in the middle of her monthly cycle?!”
Bowen Carter’s heart seemed to be clogged with a ball of cotton that had been sucked through the water, his breathing became hard, and his face was even harder to see.
Cliff Ford tried to cover Linda Mark’s mouth, but simply couldn’t!
“Has Tess had a good day since she’s been with you?” Linda Mark’s nails clawed at the back of Cliff Ford’s hand, her foot still kicking wildly, “A man’s got one fucking life, how many times has Tess gone to hell because of you, if you have a clear conscience?”
Bowen Carter couldn’t help but clench his fists, veins popping out of his forehead.
He didn’t want to admit any of this, but everything Linda Mark said was just damn true!
“Linda, you cut the crap.” Cliff Ford is still trying to gag Linda Mark.
“Stay the fuck out of my business,” Linda Mark bit down on his hand and pushed him away before walking over to Bowen Carter and tilting her head back to look at her angrily, “If anything happens to Tess this time, you worry about your dog’s life! Even if I go to jail, I’m going to get you!!!”
Mark’s mother heard straight to tears, Tess this child is really bitter life ah, if she did not return to A city six years ago is good, then there will not be now these bad things!
Mark father gently patted her back with a long sigh, “Sins, all sins!”
These words made Bowen Carter feel uncomfortable in his heart, he tightened his thin lips and instructed the few bodyguards he brought over, “Keep an eye on them, don’t let any of them take a step out of here!”
“Carter, just do me a favor and don’t give Linda and her family a hard time.” Cliff Ford said as he walked up to him.
Bowen Carter gave him a cold look, then instructed towards the bodyguards, “Put the word out that if you don’t want anything to happen to THE Mark Family and THE Mark Group, they’d better come back on their own.”
Cliff Ford can’t talk anyone out of it and is scratching his head in desperation.
What’s he going to do if Carter does take a shot at THE Mark Family? What’s the … choice between a brother and a woman?
“Them?” Linda Mark caught the key word as she wiped a tear from the corner of her eye, “Who else but Tess?”
No one answered her.
Linda Mark walked up to Cliff Ford and gritted her teeth, “Tell me, who else but Tess? If you don’t tell me, we won’t have to see each other again!”
“… Cable,” Cliff Ford said after a moment’s tussle.
Linda Mark was incredulous at first, then frantically rushed at Bowen Carter, “Master Carter, I’ll fucking fight you!”
“Stop her.” Bowen Carter ordered with a cold look on his face.
Immediately two bodyguards went up and stopped Linda Mark in her rage.
Cliff Ford tried to go over to her to comfort her and tell her not to get so worked up, but she was as mad as hell and couldn’t listen to anything, kicking him in the stomach and nearly sending him to the ground.
“Master Carter, you’re breaking the law by illegally detaining!” Mark father couldn’t hold back any longer and stood up as he looked at the mother and daughter with red eyes.
Upon hearing this, Bowen Carter, who was heading toward the door, stopped in his tracks, turned his back on Mark father, and said coldly, “So what?”
Whatever it takes, he’s going to get Tess Baker and their baby back!
The thought that Tess Baker might take her child away for good and then live with a man for the rest of her life seemed to strike a million pins in his heart.
He won’t allow Tess Baker to leave him!
She, she’s his!
