“You said it yourself, don’t back out.” Tess Baker took one look at the fresh chicken wings that the crowd was snapping up and, unable to restrain her housewifely nature of taking advantage of small bargains, dove headfirst into the crowded crowd.
Seeing this, Bowen Carter’s handsome face instantly darkened.
After spending an hour and a half to buy the required ingredients and some miscellaneous things, Tess Baker followed Bowen Carter, who was pushing the shopping cart, with an unconcealed dejection on her face, “Bowen Carter, many things are on sale today, I have saved almost three hundred dollars on these things! ”
Bowen Carter just left her with a high-spirited back of the head.
Joy is a sad thing when no one shares it, and Tess Baker couldn’t resist adding, “Wouldn’t you feel a sense of accomplishment to spend only $600 on something that should have cost $900?”
Although she is the president of the company, she still feels so happy like this!
“I’m not even 30, 000 for one second.” Bowen Carter stopped and looked at her askance.
Tess Baker, “…”
Nothing to say!
The two returned to the same spot where Linda Mark and the little one were shamelessly sampling people’s free yogurt.
I don’t know how much they ate, but the little girl who was pushing the yogurt looked straight at them both, her eyes full of sorrow.
“You guys are back!” Linda Mark finished her yogurt with a suck and handed the empty cup to the sales girl in passing.
Tess Baker is not as douchey as she is, and bought three cases of yogurt from the sales girl. But the shopping cart was so full that only one case could be put down.
The poor noble Bowen Carter, a box of yogurt in one hand, living like a do hard work, attracted countless male compatriots understanding and rich in sympathy eyes.
“You bought so much yogurt, can you drink it all? Aren’t you afraid that it will expire before you finish it?” Linda Mark couldn’t help but complain while waiting in line for the checkout.
Tess Baker smacked her on the head, “You think everyone is as shameless as you are?”
Linda Mark was about to retort when she suddenly heard an unmistakably familiar voice–
“Old Mark, do you see if that’s Linda?”
“Crap!” Linda Mark looked at it and her face went white, “Tess, see you in the jungle, I’ll go first!”
She ran out two steps, then turned back and yelled at the little guy, “Little bastard, quick, quick, quick, block for me for a while!”
“Oh.” The little one has been watching daddy and mommy show their love all night and is upset.
Hearing this, he ran to the Mark Family with his short legs, “Grandpa and Grandma, Aunt Linda is running that way!”
The little finger pointed in the right direction for Linda Mark to escape.
Tess Baker, “…”
I wonder if there will be a time when my son will betray her.
“Mike, remember to go back to Grandma’s house for dinner tomorrow!” Mark’s mother bent down and gave the little one a kiss on the cheek and immediately commanded her husband, “Old Mark, catch up!”
Two people nearly 60 years old spread their feet and went after them, not even the shopping cart.
Tess Baker looked at their backs, her eyes full of envy. What she envied most about Linda was that Linda had a complete family.
“You envy her?” Bowen Carter took in her envious gaze and thought of the things her mother had done, and her heart ached dully.
His woman has had a tough past, and he won’t make her future tough again!
“Yeah!” Tess Baker collected the bitterness under her eyes and pretended to be relaxed, “My dad is a good gambler, and my mom and my brother are that way, home doesn’t even feel like a home.”
Bowen Carter’s fists tightened unconsciously, hating that he hadn’t met her earlier, and hating even more that he hadn’t treated her well during the three years he had just married her!
Tess Baker lowered her eyes, “I had a high fever when I was sixteen and they just left me in bed and didn’t care. Luckily I was lucky to live and didn’t die, but I’ve forgotten all about the past. I didn’t care if my family had money, but I really wanted someone to care about me.”
This wish could not be simpler for others, but for her, it could only be a luxury wish!
“I’ll be there later.” Bowen Carter lowered his head and gave her a serious and compassionate peck on the lips.
Cashier, “…”
Although some of the words might be embarrassing to say, she had to say –
“Can I ask you two to settle the bill?”
“Hmm.” Tess Baker’s face instantly rolled as she hurried to put the contents of her shopping cart on.
After settling the bill, the three of them went home.
Tess Baker pulls the little one while Bowen Carter carries the big pile of stuff.
Seeing that mommy has been looking in the direction of scum daddy, the little one tightly pursed his lips and his delicate little face was full of displeasure.
Since having a scum daddy, he is getting less and less favored.
He is aggrieved, but he does not say so.
…
The trio soon arrived home.
Tess Baker went into the kitchen with the ingredients and was ready to start cooking when she noticed Bowen Carter walking in with her long legs.
“The meal will be ready in a moment, you go out first.” It seemed like five years since she had cooked for him, and for a moment she felt a little dazed.
Bowen Carter walked up to her and grabbed the knife out of her hand, “I’ll do it.”
Five years ago, she prepared meals and waited for him every day.
Five years later, these things for him!
“Then I’ll find you an apron.” Tess Baker pulled a neatly folded apron from the cupboard, put it on him, and smiled unkindly.
Bowen Carter’s features are cold and hard, usually a black suit, not even a bright color clothes. At the moment he is wearing a pink apron, but his handsome face is not smiling, the contradictory temperament actually makes him a little more cute.
— but there’s no denying that even so, he’s still incredibly handsome!
“Don’t you move yet.” Tess Baker ran out and got his phone and clicked it, capturing him in his pink apron.
Just as she was looking at the photo, a shadow suddenly appeared over her head, followed by a cold voice, “What are you laughing at?”
“I’m happy with you, so smile!” Tess Baker laughed and hid her phone behind her, taking a step back in fear that he would delete the photo.
Bowen Carter took her into his arms with one hand, clasped her waist, and his eyes were tinged with a deeper look.
The two stared at each other, their eyes intertwined, and the temperature in the kitchen began to climb by the hour.
