Chapter 437 – All This Pain You’ve Brought Me
“Don’t you touch me!!!” Tess Baker shouted shrilly, not hiding the hatred in her eyes.
Bowen Carter lowered his hand, his heart already so full of holes that he had nothing more to say but that he was sorry. If he had even an ounce of trust in her, he wouldn’t have misunderstood her on either of those things.
“I’m sorry?” Tess Baker thought she’d stopped tearing up a long time ago, but at this point she couldn’t stop the tears, “Do you think that sorry helps?”
Bowen Carter is like a man caught in quicksand, his eyes, ears, mouth and nose are blocked by the quicksand and he has to open his mouth wide to try to breathe. But the quicksand entered his mouth and his last organ to breathe was gone.
“You say you’re sorry so that what happened when I got down on my knees and begged you can be written off as never having happened? Can you say you’re sorry so that what happened when Staphen Baker tried to peek at me to change my clothes and raped me can be erased? Can you say you’re sorry and make it so that my daughter’s sepsis never happened?” Tess Baker’s voice got a little louder with each word.
The quicksand covers Bowen Carter’s eyes as well, he can’t breathe, and the world goes dark. He attempts to struggle out of this deadly place, but the more he struggles, the closer he gets to death.
“I can’t!” Tess Baker’s eyes were swollen and every word felt like it was being squeezed out of her throat, “All this pain you’ve caused me will never go away just because you say you’re sorry!”
The nine years she stayed together as Tess Baker and Bowen Carter were nothing but agony.
Once she thought that even if it was painful, she would love this man for the rest of her life. But really when he hurt her time and time again, she realized that her heart is also flesh long, will also bleed, will be injured, will be … desperate!
“Tess Baker,” Bowen Carter said carefully as he took a step closer to her, “I’ve contacted the best pediatrician who will treat our daughter … “Healing.
“She’s not a daughter, she’s my daughter!” Tess Baker interrupted almost rudely, “You haven’t been her daddy since the moment you called her a bastard and stopped me from getting to her!”
He doesn’t deserve it!
Bowen Carter’s fists are clenched tightly together, the ends of his eyes red, but he’s powerless to retort.
He was the one who called his daughter a little wild child, and he was the one who stopped Tess Baker from finding her, and that’s all true. If he could, he would have preferred that it was him lying in the hospital instead of his daughter who was only a few days old!NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
The atmosphere between the two was extraordinarily depressing.
Bowen Carter tries to ease the relationship between the two, but Tess Baker is like a rabid lioness, plucking at him with vigilance and hatred, not giving him a chance.
At that moment, a rush of footsteps approached.
“Mike, I heard the old man say that the one with sepsis was my granddaughter, isn’t that true …” Upon meeting Tess Baker, an emotional Carter’s mother froze, finishing her sentence, and “The?”
Tess Baker stepped in front of Bowen Carter and said coldly, “You misunderstand, she’s just my daughter, not your granddaughter.”
“What do you mean?” Carter’s mother frowned, “The baby isn’t Mike’s?”
She thought she had a granddaughter. Was she happy for nothing?
“No.”
“Yes.”
Tess Baker and Bowen Carter spoke at the same time.
Carter’s mother got a hard look on her face and asked Bowen Carter, “Is this baby girl yours or not? Think about it, don’t fool me!”
“Grandpa has had a paternity test done and it’s my daughter.” Bowen Carter said.
Tess Baker grunted and sneered, “Who said the paternity test is true? I bribed the doctor to tamper with the results of the test, oh, this child is Senior’s, and Senior and I want to use this child to swallow up most of your THE Carter family’s family fortune.”
Carter’s mother’s face went a shade of red and white; these were the same things she had said about Tess Baker earlier.
Bowen Carter, “The appraisal came back clean, and I’ve contacted the best doctor I can find, and the doctor will be here tonight around eleven o’clock. If you’re okay, you can go to the hospital.”
The doctor was from abroad, and he had asked the other to come as fast as he could, but even then it would be eleven o’clock tonight before he arrived.
Carter’s mother nodded and said with an ugly face, “Tess Baker, don’t be too wild, even if the child is our THE Carter family’s and you didn’t leak the information, I won’t let you come back to be my daughter-in-law, and at most, I’ll give you another sum of money as compensation.”
“No need for money, I’m sick of your THE Carter family’s dirty money.” Tess Baker got a little tickle in her throat and coughed twice, “Just tell your son to let me go and never bother me again.”
“Do you really think you’re a meat and potatoes guy and Mike can’t have you?” Carter’s mother was furious, her red nail polish-stained finger pointing at Tess Baker.
Tess Baker grimaced, “I never thought of myself as a meat and potatoes person, only as a piece of shit surrounded by a circle of shitheads that I couldn’t get rid of, disgusting and sticky.”
“You!” Carter’s mother’s face reddened and her voice turned shrill with anger.
Tess Baker’s face didn’t change, “I’m not deaf, you can keep your voice down, you’re acting like the shrew you usually disdain.”
Carter’s mother gasped in exasperation and turned to Bowen Carter and said, “You get her out of here right now and you don’t look for her ever again, do you hear me?!”
“I don’t need you to mind my business.” Bowen Carter frowned.
Carter’s mother really thinks he’s bewitched, “Tess Baker has called you a …” those three words are so vulgar she’s embarrassed to say them, “She’s called you names, what are you still keeping What are you keeping her for?”
“Don’t want Mike to hate you, you’d better not take it so personal against his mommy.” Bowen Carter’s brow wrinkled even more.
Carter’s mother pointed at him and finally said nothing, grunting heavily and leaving with a grimace.
Tess Baker watched her back disappear in the doorway, a little lost in her thoughts, she thought her mother-in-law could help her leave.
“It’s getting late, let’s get some rest.” Bowen Carter reached for Tess Baker.
Tess Baker frowned and dodged away, but he grabbed her hand anyway, and with a slight push, he yanked her into his arms.
The scent of his men’s perfume enveloped her, making her feel sick all over, and she struggled like crazy, but he was too strong for her to break free.
Bowen Carter tugged her to the bathroom and reached down to undress her.
“Don’t you touch me!” Tess Baker hit his hand hard, her eyes blazing.
Bowen Carter took in her anger and his heart fluttered with it, but he restrained her and removed the clothes from her body.
He knew that she wasn’t a clean freak, but she couldn’t sleep well at night without a bath.
The bath was quickly drained and the water was just the right temperature.
Tess Baker was forcibly ripped into the bath by Bowen Carter, and with the two of them naked, she could clearly see some parts of him change.
Shame and anger screamed at the back of her mind as she snapped her foot up and kicked toward his most vulnerable spot.
Since Bowen Carter was so fond of rutting, she’d just let him have no future rutting opportunities!
“Don’t move.” Bowen Carter grabbed her foot easily, his eyes landing on her pretty, pink toes, and lowered his head, kissing her softly, his eyes soft.
