Chapter 431 – This Child Is Carter’s
“Even if you don’t recognize this child, she’s still yours! She’s in the hospital right now and you won’t let me go out, are you trying to kill her?” Linda Mark regretted at this moment, she shouldn’t have been so impulsive just now, if she couldn’t get out, what would happen to that child?
Bowen Carter ignores him and strides out of THE Mark Family.
Linda Mark slid down to the floor with both eyes blank, what was going to happen to the baby now? She had just been so impulsive, if Tess had been there, she wouldn’t have let her be so impulsive!
“Don’t you worry.” Cliff Ford couldn’t see her like this, “You tell me where the baby is and I’ll take care of the baby.”
Linda Mark didn’t want him to know the child’s whereabouts, he knew it was equivalent to Master Carter knowing, what if Master Carter gave the child a hard time?
But there was nothing to help her now but Cliff Ford, and all she could do was to give him the child’s address, get rid of him to take care of it, and then warn him not to tell Bowen Carter.
…
Elder Si moves quickly.
Except for that media, which took a while, a few other conditions Si’s old man took care of.
Room.
Tess Baker loaded her cell phone card and was about to call Linda Mark when she realized that Master Si was still sitting unmoving in his chair, “You still have business?”
“The word is out on the Carter Family’s end that if you and your son don’t go to Master Carter in three days, he’ll make the Mark Family look good.” Master Si said.
Tess Baker is shocked at first by the little one running out, then by anger and helplessness: what’s the point of hiding it even if she hides it well? Bowen Carter has captured her soft spot and will shamelessly threaten her with it for the rest of her life!
She looked down at her phone with resignation.
She was ready to deal with Bowen Carter’s array of measures, only to be routed by his move.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Was she really going to go back to him obediently, give up her dignity from then on, go back to the prison he had arranged for her, and just waste away for the rest of her life?
Master Si, “For the sake of your blood of the Si family, if you’re going back to Master Carter, don’t say I rescued you.”
“The point is this latter sentence, isn’t it?” Tess Baker smiled bitterly, she counted on using Master Si and he counted on using her, no problem!
Elder Si was a bit embarrassed by this question, he coughed dryly, “I saw that you didn’t have a change of clothes, so I had someone prepare a few clothes for you.”
When he finished, he rushed to the door and said, “Come in.”
The maid came in with a dozen or so bags, all of which were brand-name logos, and a few pieces of clothing probably cost more than 100, 000 dollars.
Tess Baker casually opened a bag, took out a dress and compared it to her body, and said lightly, “Such a fat dress, so you think I can wear it? Don’t you ever ask someone to check the size before you buy something?”
Master Si looked sardonic, he thought that girls wore clothes in similar sizes, so he bought them in the size of one of his granddaughters.
“I see you quite like this dress, let’s see if you can wear it, if you can you can keep it. If you can’t wear it, you can give it to someone else.” Tess Baker casually folded the dress and put it in, saying to the maid in front of her.
The maid’s eyes were glowing, but she didn’t dare to take it, instead looking in the direction of Elder Si.
“Tess gives it to you, you take it.” Elder Si said.
The maid went out with a dozen bags full of joy.
“Cough!” Elder Si cleared his throat, “These clothes don’t fit, you can take another look and buy whichever one you want, I’ll pay for it.”
“No need. There’s a million dollars in the card you gave me, so I can buy it myself.” Tess Baker declined with a scowl.
Elder Si, “Actually, you don’t need to be so outgoing, no matter what, you are also our Si family.”
“If you’re afraid that I’m going to curry favor with you by telling the truth about you saving my life, there’s no need to do so.” Tess Baker just felt physically and mentally exhausted, “I don’t have to do that kind of thankless thing, and targeting your Szeth family won’t do me any good at all.”
“Tess, you …”
“I’m tired and want to rest.”
Elder Si looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t say anything, instead he sighed and went out.
The moment the door closed, Tess Baker sat helplessly on the bed, that light-headed feeling getting heavier. She’d never have a shred of resistance when it came to Bowen Carter, and he always had a way of pushing her over the edge time and time again!
Did she have a chance to dwell on it, to consider it?
No.
There was no way she was going to leave Linda and the others alone!
Tess Baker felt like she was stuck in a swamp, and the more she struggled, the faster she was swallowed up. The sludge clogged her gouged nose and she could no longer breathe.
“Ah …” Tess Baker let out a long breath and pulled out her cell phone, ready to call Bowen Carter.
At that moment, the phone suddenly vibrated with a WeChat message.
[Aunt Linda, Grandma and Grandpa, they’re fine, so Mommy don’t go looking for Scum Daddy yet.]
She had just finished reading it when another message came through.
Did Mommy get the message I sent? (QUESTIONING) Reply when you get it.]
[Mommy, Uncle Six helped me run out, and I’m at the house of one of Uncle Six’s good friends. Uncle Six’s friend is very nice to me, but I miss you so much (I’m about to cry).
[(Hugs)]
Tess Baker’s eyes suddenly got wet as she looked at the words ‘I missed you oh so much’ and she covered her mouth to keep herself from making a whimpering sound.
She used to be too busy with her company every day to spend time with Mike in order to provide him with better conditions.
Then Bowen Carter took the company over and she thought she would have time for him, but the Carter family side of the family wouldn’t let her have more contact with Mike …
Her son … her son is not even five years old ah, why to bear so much?
[I’m at Si’s house, it’s fine, you don’t have to worry. Mike, 125 Jing Yang Road is a milk tea store, let’s meet there, okay?]
Tess Baker finished editing the message and sent it, staring intently at her phone.
She missed her son, she really did!
…
the Carter family.
Cliff Ford wouldn’t be kind enough to help Tess Baker, but his relationship with Linda Mark is so bad that it can’t be repaired, and he wants to help Tess Baker as a way to ease his relationship with Linda Mark.
He knew he couldn’t convince Carter, which is why he came to THE Carter family and sought out the old man Carter, who he grew up fearing.
“You said you were looking for me for something?” Elder Carter sat on the living room sofa, taking a sip of his tea without anger.
“Uh-huh.” Cliff Ford stood uncomfortably straight, “I just wanted to see you about your sister-in-law.”
“Which sister-in-law?” Elder Carter put down his teacup and looked at him.
Cliff Ford swallowed unnaturally, his voice much lower, “It’s the Tess Baker thing …”
“You’ve heard from her?” Upon hearing the words Tess Baker, Master Carter’s face turned foul.
Cliff Ford was already afraid of him, now he even stumbled over his words, “No … no, sort of.”
If he hadn’t been afraid that Linda would ignore him forever, he would never have come here on his own looking for abuse!
