Two months have passed and it’s already the 27th day of the lunar month, nearing the end of the year.
Tess Baker and Bowen Carter didn’t fight, they respected each other as if there was a transparent wall between them. Whenever he wanted to take a step forward, she used this wall to block him out.
Even if he later got drunk twice, she did not have any more absurd things with him, and they lived together, but their hearts were separated by a deep, bottomless cliff.
In the morning, Bowen Carter went to the group after eating, while Tess Baker went to the mall with Linda Mark.
“Tess, your belly is getting bigger, what are you going to do?” Linda Mark glanced at her belly for a few moments. It wasn’t obvious if you weren’t paying attention, but it was obvious if you looked closely.
Tess Baker rubbed her stomach and sighed, “It’s possible to stay in THE Carter family and just live the rest of your life.”
She can’t go back with Bowen Carter, but she’s willing to stay with her two kids as long as he doesn’t do anything particularly excessive.
The children are too young, and she wants them to have a happier childhood than living in the shadow of a single-parent family.
“That’s good.” Linda Mark poked her stomach, “You can’t live as well alone as you can give your child a warm home.”
“Baby, that’s not like you to say that!” Tess Baker said with a laugh.
Linda Mark had a moment of weakness, then raised her eyebrows and said, “I’m at least almost 30 years old, I still understand this point!”
The two laughed and joked as they entered a maternity clothing store. Tess Baker’s belly was getting so big that her old clothes no longer fit.
It’s just that the injustice is in the wrong hands.
Tess Baker looked at Snowy Cole and Wendy Summer, who were picking out clothes, grabbed Linda Mark’s hand and headed out. She felt uneasy when she saw these two.
“Miss Baker, please wait a minute.” Lucy Kid’s eyes lit up and she rushed after Tess Baker. Lucy Kid’s eyes lit up and she rushed after her, stopping Tess Baker. she tried to seduce Master Carter, it didn’t work, and she almost got thrown out of the company, now she was going to start from Miss Baker’s side.
Tess Baker looked pale, but her clenched fists betrayed her emotions, “Something wrong?”
“You can’t be approached if there’s nothing wrong?” Snowy Cole threw the clothes in her hand to the waitress and walked up to her with a twisted face, “You stole Wendy SummerMrs. Carter’s position and became a fair and square mistress, and you still won’t let anyone say anything?”
She would have thought that Carter liked Wendy Summer so much that he would have just dumped Tess Baker after Lucy Kid showed up!
Who knew Carter was possessed like a ghost and wouldn’t let go of Tess Baker’s little bitch!
Tess Baker face a stiff, throat mouth as blocked a cotton, sticky uncomfortable.
“You don’t know shit!” Linda Mark crossed her arms, “Wendy Summer died four years before Tess Baker got together with Master Carter, what kind of a mistress is that?”
“If Tess Baker didn’t look like Wendy Summer, Carter wouldn’t even be looking at her! Summer!” Snowy Cole stared viciously at Tess Baker, trying to scratch her face.
Linda Mark exploded, “Why should Tess give up Mrs. Carter’s position? If Master Carter still liked Wendy Summer, he would have been with Wendy Summer long ago, why do you need to yammer?”
The two quarrels are full of energy, plus Tess Baker looks exactly the same as Lucy Kid, which soon attracts a large crowd of onlookers.
Not wanting to be mobbed like a monkey, Tess Baker pulled at Linda Mark’s coat and shook her head.
“Miss Baker, I didn’t want to say this, but there’s something I have to say.” Lucy Kid, worried about Tess Baker leaving, hurriedly said, “Bowen said he chose you mainly because you gave him a son and your son didn’t want you to leave, and he didn’t want to upset your son.”
Hearing this, Tess Baker’s face was bloodless, subconsciously grasping Linda Mark’s hand, her heart gnawed to a thousand holes.
Linda Mark yelled at Lucy Kid, “Shut the fuck up!”
“I’m sorry I have to tell the truth,” Lucy Kid slowed her voice, “Miss Baker, I know the truth is unfair to you, but Bowen is really hurting to be with you because of her son.”
“He still loves me and has me working as the president’s secretary at The Carter Group, but because of you, the two of us want to be close and have to sneak around. miss Baker, Bowen and I are truly in love, please make us whole.”
After saying that, Lucy Kid without any warning fell to her knees, teary-eyed and looking very pitiful.
She knew she was shameless, but she had to do it for the sake of her grandmother’s surgery!
Tess Baker clenched her lips and breathed heavily, like a fish on the ground being steamed by the sun on the verge of death.
All this time, she desperately tried to forget about Wendy Summer’s existence, but that was just self-delusion!
Snowy Cole scanned the crowd, pointed at Tess Baker and shouted, “This woman is trying to get into my friend’s boyfriend’s bed because she looks exactly like her! They are in love, and she has to use the baby to interfere.
She hates Eric Si so much, yet she was threatened by him and had to give birth to his child, all because of Tess Baker!
She wants Tess Baker to pay, and she wants her to live and die!
“So pretty, what’s wrong with being a mistress?”
“Holding a man hostage with a child, I’ve seen this kind of mistress a lot!”
“As a woman, what I hate the most is the mistress. There are so many bachelors in the world, why do they just stare at other people’s men? Shameless!”
The crowd of onlookers, mostly women, once heard that Tess Baker is a mistress, immediately all kinds of for the right room, spittle are almost splashed on the face of the next person.
“God gave you mouth, not to let you make up people! I’ll sue you for libel if you slander people like this!” Linda Mark was so angry with this group of people that she was angry.
Tess Baker pursed her lips and looked at Lucy Kid on her knees on the ground, pale and pushed away from the crowd and left the circle.
Linda Mark caught up with her, “Tess, Wendy Summer is lying, there is no evidence, don’t listen to her. Don’t listen to her. These people don’t know anything and they’re just following the crowd, don’t pay attention to them!”
Tess is pregnant and it’s best not to be overjoyed or angry.
“Linda, I’d like to go back to Beauty Garden first.” Tess Baker’s heart was in a mess and she no longer had the heart to go to the mall.
Two months ago, Bowen Carter told her that Wendy Summer was no longer the president’s secretary, but why does Wendy Summer still say she is today?
Bowen Carter with her, really … because it cares about Mike’s feelings?
Seeing her lost in thought, Linda Mark was afraid that something would happen to her on the way, “I’ll walk you there.”
Tess Baker did not refuse, a sweat on his forehead.
…
Linda Mark dropped Tess Baker off at Beauty Garden and gave her a thousand instructions to keep her thoughts to herself before driving back.
Many of the maids have gone home for New Year’s Eve, and Beauty Garden now has only Aunt Zhang and two other maids in the house.
“Ma’am?” Aunt Zhang was surprised, “You went to the mall and came back so soon?”
It’s only been gone less than half an hour.
