“How should I know where your son is? Maybe at Wendy Summer’s, you can find out.” Tess Baker played dumb, her heart pounding.
Granny came over this time, and it was really for Mike!
Carter’s mother gritted her teeth, “I’m talking about my grandson Mike!”
“Are you hallucinating with a fever?” Tess Baker was still trying to get past, “When did Bowen Carter have a son, did Wendy Summer have a son?”
Grandma has always wanted grandchildren so badly, she would have taken Mike away from her if she had seen him!
“Tess Baker! You really think you can hide Mike like that? Carter’s mother was so angry with her that she made a phone call and had Tess Baker’s address checked.
…
The luxurious and low-key Rolls-Royce Phantom was finally parked in the neighborhood where Tess Baker lives.
In the car, Carter’s mother looked askance at Tess Baker, “Will you take out the keys yourself, or should I have the door taken down?”
“I thought you didn’t like me? I’m divorcing Bowen Carter and don’t want a penny, as long as I get custody of Mike.” Tess Baker has been nervous to the core, Mike is exposed, but she simply does not have the strength to fight against the Carter family!
“Idiot’s dream!” Carter’s mother sneered and ordered directly, “You two go up, the door is broken down, and bring my grandson here!”
Just one Tess Baker, and you want to negotiate with her?
It’s a joke!
“Wait!” Tess Baker called out to the two men and turned to look at Carter’s mother, sweat rising on her forehead, “I’ve been away from Bowen Carter for five years with a lot of men and Mike is not Bowen Carter’s son at all! That paternity test was … moved by me!”
All she can do now is pray that her mother-in-law believes her and gives up on the idea of seeing Mike!
“No shame!” Carter’s mother squeezed a few words out of her teeth before scolding the two men, “What are you waiting for? Is she your employer or am I your employer? Go and bring the baby down to me!”
She must personally take this child to an identification to see if this child is her grandson!
The blood and bones of the Carter family must not be shed!
Tess Baker leaned helplessly back in her seat, her heavy makeup unable to hide her disheveled face.
She was not willing to give up Mike like that!
But what if she is not willing, how can she alone fight against the whole Carter family?
“You and Mike go get a divorce this afternoon, or you and your son never want to see each other.” Such a dirty woman is not qualified to be their the Carter family daughter-in-law even if she gave birth to their the Carter family’s grandson!
Tess Baker looked straight at her and couldn’t believe she was threatening herself with her son!
As a woman, doesn’t the mother-in-law think it’s dirty to use her son to blackmail her mother?
“Regret not taking the 100 million or so from last time?” She knew Tess Baker was no good, “But it’s useless to regret, you won’t get a single penny this time!”
“I can go through the divorce process this afternoon, but Mike has to be mine!” Mother-in-law is still as smug as ever!
Carter’s mother snickered, “If it was a wild child you had with a wild man, no one would steal it from you!”
Tess Baker’s eyes lowered and her fists clenched. What the hell was she supposed to do if her mother-in-law wouldn’t let go?
The Carter family was very efficient, but in about twenty minutes, the little one was carried down.
“Mommy!” The little one bit the man hard, and when he let go, he ran in a flash to Tess Baker and jumped into her arms.
Tess Baker hugged him tightly, the corners of his eyes couldn’t stop being sore, “Mike don’t be afraid, I’m here!”
She gave birth to her child in October and raised him so easily, how could she be willing to give him to someone else?
Carter’s mother had been frozen when she saw Mike, this … child looked exactly the same as Mike when he was a child, and without paternity testing she could be sure that this was her grandson!
But just in case, it is better to do a paternity test again!
“Mike don’t be afraid, come here, let grandma look at you.” Carter’s mother voice is very soft and gentle, with a light smile on her face, afraid to scare her precious grandson!
She has been hoping for a grandson for so many years, but it turns out she already has one!
The little one didn’t even look at her, still clinging to Tess Baker’s neck and lying in her arms.
“Mike be a good boy, you go with this grandma and I’ll come to you tomorrow, okay?” Tess Baker gave the little one a kiss on the forehead and tried to raise a smile.
While Carter’s mother wasn’t paying attention, she lowered her voice and said, “Which hospital did the paternity test at, who did it for you, text me.”
She couldn’t grab the Carter family, so she had to find a way to move on the paternity test.
…
An hour later, the little one sent a text message.
The paternity test was done at a private hospital owned by The Carter Group, and the vice president did the work himself.
Tess Baker did not know the vice president and had to call her partners and acquaintances to see who could put her in touch with the vice president.
By the time she reached the tenth call, the other party suddenly mentioned, “Tess, you went to The Carter Group as the president’s secretary and you’re not going to be a company?”
“Hmm?” Tess Baker froze, when did she go to work for The Carter Group as the president’s secretary?
The other party also froze, “I heard from a friend of The Carter Group that you went to be the president’s secretary, just started today, and the whole secretary’s office loves you. Did I mishear?”
“… Boss Dev friend has mistaken the person, that person just looks like me.” Tess Baker heart as if a dense needle, painful trembling.
If the clothes are just a misunderstanding, then how can this matter be explained?
The president’s secretary, heh, it’s really a convenient position for two people to get close to each other!
The other party is obviously also a little embarrassed, half of the time do not know what to say.
“It’s a big world, there’s a lot of face blindness.” Tess Baker made a snide joke and digressed, “Boss Dev would you mind giving me the contact information for your friend at The Carter Group? I have something I’d like to ask him or her for.”
She’s desperate for Bowen Carter and now just wants to get Mike out of the wrong place!
…
It took Tess Baker a great deal of effort to get in touch with the associate dean, and the two met at a café.
She didn’t dare underestimate the vice president and was ready to buy him out with eight million – all her savings so far, the company was worth a lot but didn’t have much liquidity itself.
However, she didn’t expect the vice president to bring someone else over.
“Planning to buy off my people at my hospital?” Bowen Carter’s gaze was like a knife, the corners of her mouth full of sarcasm, did she really think the Carter family people were easy to fool?
The vice president sat aside and quietly sipped his coffee, carefully acting as a transparent person.
Tess Baker licked her dry lips, “We’re getting divorced soon, and Mike staying will only affect your relationship with Wendy Summer. bowen Carter, consider me begging you to give me custody of Mike!”
She just wants to live with her son, why is it so hard?
“Tess Baker, are you blind?” Bowen Carter squeezed every word out of his teeth. Which one of her eyes saw that he wanted to be with Lucia?
