Everyone at the table, young and old, stood up, not daring to say a word, until Bowen Carter sat down for a while, and then they sat down in turn.
Some people look at Tess Baker unabashedly and talk about her to her face–
“What’s the use of having a son? Second Brother’s heart is not in her either!”
“If it wasn’t for the two kids, she wouldn’t even be eligible to be in our THE Carter family!”
“Her mom and her brother are jerks enough to be in the news, so how good can she be?”
Tess Baker listened with discomfort, but said nothing … Most of it is true, there is nothing to refute.
But she can swallow this breath, the little one can not swallow, he stood up, said with an innocent face: “The teacher said that if you have an opinion to say it to your face, behind your back to say bad things about others is to be retribution, you are not afraid?”
“When adults talk, children should not interfere. That’s the most basic upbringing, didn’t your mommy teach you that?”
The others all agreed –
“He must have learned it from his mommy when he’s like this now!”
“It’s time for grandpa to find him an etiquette teacher, it’s not good to go out and make a joke.”
“That is, we do not bother with him in our own family, he talks like that outside, is to get into trouble!”
Tess Baker listened with a frown, they can bully her, but definitely not her son!
She was about to stand up and speak when Bowen Carter’s cool voice rang out, “If you have a problem with my son, tell me to my face.
He swept over the crowd, his eyes chilling.
The crowd looked at each other in disbelief, and no one dared to say a word more.
“Keep your mouth shut if you don’t say anything!” Bowen Carter snapped his chopsticks onto his plate with a gust of cold air emanating from his body.
The hearts of the crowd also thumped, eyes and noses, even the breathing was deliberately lightened.
The little one didn’t appreciate this, grunting and tugging Tess Baker away, “Mommy, I want to set off fireworks!”
Scummy daddy actually brought Auntie Sheng here, he won’t forgive him!
“Good.” Tess Baker doesn’t want to stay in this pandemonium either, it’s too distracting on New Year’s Eve!
Bowen Carter’s eyes followed the depressed backs of a small and large group leaving, his heart smothered and unconsciously stood up.
“Bowen … Master Carter, you hold on for two more days, maybe Miss Baker will realize her feelings for you.” Lucy Kid is also a woman, and she knows one thing very well: women are more psychologically sensitive and more vulnerable during the holidays.
Bowen Carter then realized he was on his feet and said with a frown, “Don’t mention this again.”
It’s Tess Baker who needs to be forgiven, not him!
“Good.” Lucy Kid lowered her eyes and collected the smile under her eyes. It seemed Master Carter had received her photo with Mr. Gu and misunderstood Tess Baker.
In this way, Mr. Duke’s plan is halfway successful, and in a short time, she will be relieved!
The fireworks were just an excuse, but Tess Baker came out with nothing to do, so she simply asked the maid for some fireworks and found an open space to set them off.
The little guy was afraid of the bang as the fireworks flew up into the sky and ran far away, still covering both ears.
After Tess Baker lit the fireworks, she quickly ran to the little one with her ten centimeter high heels and covered her ears as tightly as he did, waiting for the fireworks to go off.
However–
Four minutes passed and the fireworks swirled around on the ground a few times, becoming less and less loud and finally just going out.
Little guy, “…”
Tess Baker, “…”
Something is wrong with this trend!
“Wait a little longer, maybe fly up in a moment … right?” Tess Baker said not quite sure, still covering her ears tightly, not daring to go up, for fear that the moment she walked past, the fireworks whoosh up!
Mother and son are the first time to set off fireworks, not much experience, stupidly covered his ears and stood for more than ten minutes, before realizing that the fireworks really can not go up to the sky.
The little guy is drooping his eyebrows, a little frustrated. Mommy is not happy in the restaurant, he just want to set off fireworks to make Mommy happy, but the fireworks are bullying him!
“There’s something wrong with this firework, I’ll try two more.” Tess Baker reassured him and told him to stand away.
She puts two fireworks on the ground, lights them, runs away, covers her ears, a set of moves done in a fluid fashion.
“Mommy, it’s flying!” The little one’s eyes shone brightly.
The words just fell, the fireworks flew to a height of more than three meters, poofed with a fart-sized sound, and then fell to the ground.
Mother and son look at each other, and Tess Baker picks up the fireworks and looks at them–
[Stay away from flammable and explosive materials, children’s fireworks, play with peace of mind!
“Mike, these fireworks are for children, only …” Tess Baker’s words hadn’t finished when a few explosions suddenly came from not far away.
Bang!
Bang Bang!
Fireworks exploded in the dark sky, intertwining into a sea of colorful splendor, stunningly beautiful and dazzling.
Tess Baker stood directly underneath the fireworks and watched as the fireworks overhead flowed down like a waterfall, fading away before the next cluster quickly seized the spot and burst into the brightest and most brilliant light.
“Like it?” The cool voice reached Tess Baker’s ears with a light breeze, crunchy, tingly, and a little ticklish.
In this moment, she was a bit confused whether it was a dream or reality, and subconsciously wanted to say she liked it.
However, a gentle, cheerful female voice stole the show before her, “I especially liked it! You’re so good to me, thank you for the fireworks, I’ll always remember today.”
The ecstasy under Tess Baker’s eyes cleared as quickly as the mist, and all that remained was depth.
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wendy Summer standing beside Bowen Carter, a blazer draped over her body, her hands in prayer position in front of her body, her happiness going through the sky.
Those from the Carter family followed suit, with compliments –
“Cousin has such a good eye for choosing fireworks that look this good!”
“To be so spoiled by Mike, even I, as an elder, am jealous.”
“Mike never brings women back for New Year, even if that who married him for so many years, never came to the old mansion for New Year, this is the first time, or she begged with the old man himself!”
When Tess Baker looked over, Bowen Carter also happened to look over, the two people’s eyes hit each other, not passionate, only the sword is tense.
She took the lead in withdrawing her gaze and went to pull the little one, “This place is only suitable for fireworks, not for watching fireworks, let’s find someone to ask and see which place is suitable for watching fireworks.”
Pro father with a lover fireworks, this scene or do not let Mike see.
“Mommy go put on a dress first, then we’ll go watch the fireworks!” The little one frowned in the direction of Jagged Daddy, grunted in depression and tugged Tess Baker south.
Tess Baker was wearing very high heels and a long tuxedo that made it awkward to walk, “Slow down.”
The son is not in vain, he knows how to care for her!
Bowen Carter watched the two men leave, lost interest, and turned back to the restaurant.
The Carter family relatives looked at Bowen Carter and then at Lucy Kid who was left alone, not understanding what was going on, and finally followed Bowen Carter’s lead.
They don’t usually get much of a chance to see Bowen Carter, so they’ll have to catch a brush with goodwill today!
