Chapter 409 – She Has No Intention of Escaping
“No.” He’d only come to explain to Master Carter about Tess Baker, but he’d be glad if she took the opportunity to run out.
Even if Tess Baker doesn’t end up with him, he hopes she can leave the demon that is Master Carter behind!
But Puppy White didn’t believe him at all, she clutched his sleeve, her voice choked with sobs, almost begging, “Dennis, let me beg you, Master Carter is not a man to be messed with, not even our two families put together, so get your mind off Mrs. Carter, okay?”
…
Tess Baker climbed out of the cottage window and hid inside the smelly trash can as the bouncers began to look for her.
There were ants and I don’t know what other bugs at the bottom of the trash can, and they crawled into her slippers, only two or three of them, but they stopped her stomach from churning.
She doesn’t dare to run away for fear of Bowen Carter’s revenge on the Mark Group, but she’s not willing to be locked up in the villa like this, and she wants her child back.
Any later and she didn’t know if the child would be alive, in fact she didn’t know if the child was alive now, but she preferred to believe that the child was alive!
“Grandma Master Carter, if you hear me, come out now, I’ll never tell Master Carter about your escape, it’ll be better for you and for me!” The bodyguard yelled from a short distance away.
Tess Baker’s hands were sweating, she hadn’t planned to run away, she just wanted to sneak out to find the child and then sneak back in. That way, it wouldn’t delay her from finding the child, and it wouldn’t involve THE Mark Group.
But while the idea was beautiful, the reality was harsh, and she was still found out.
“Grandma Master Carter, I know you’re nearby, so hurry up and come out or Master Carter will be mad when he comes back later!”
“Yes, Master Carter will be back in ten minutes or so, you better come out now or you won’t get a chance!”
The two bodyguards called and answered.
Tess Baker gulped, her fists unable to stop clenching, her mind torn in a hundred directions.
When they say that, are they trying to swindle her out? Or are they serious?
What if she went out and they told Bowen Carter about her escape? But if she didn’t go out, when Bowen Carter came back later, he would surely know about her escape!
Forget it, take a gamble!
Tess Baker took a deep breath, pushed the lid of the trash can over her head and stood up, “I’m …” here.
She looked at Bowen Carter, who was walking angrily not far away, and swallowed the rest of her words.
Didn’t they say Bowen Carter wouldn’t be back for another ten minutes or so? How come he’s back so soon?
The bodyguards were also surprised, according to the theory, Master Carter still has more than ten minutes to arrive, he came so fast, the road should be speeding, it seems that Master Carter is still quite concerned about the escape of Master Carter’s grandmother.
“Good day Master Carter.” The two bodyguards stood straight.
Bowen Carter, with a grim, handsome face, didn’t even look at them as he walked straight toward Tess Baker.
With every step he took closer, Tess Baker’s body tightened a few points.
She stood in the trash can, the crawling of worms on the balls of her feet and Bowen Carter’s beady gaze making her want to run. But at that moment, it was as if the soles of her feet had taken root, clinging to the bottom of the trash can, unable to move a single step.
“Getting Dennis Gate to go along with your escape,” Bowen Carter cupped her chin, fingertips so hard they were white, “Tess Baker, you’re a real piece of work!”
Tess Baker’s jaw hurt like hell, but she didn’t struggle, “I wasn’t planning on running away, I was just trying to find the kid … Well!”
Bowen Carter’s hand cupping her chin changed to cupping her cheeks, and she couldn’t get the rest of her words out, only whimpers.
Off to the side, the two bodyguards switched from level eyes to bowed heads, sweat beading on their foreheads.
Such a Master Carter … is horrible!
“Bowen Carter, get off me!” The pain was too much for Tess Baker, and she pushed away from Bowen Carter with a violent force, her heart churning with unbridled anger.
Why did he not listen to her every time she tried to make an explanation?
Is it because he doesn’t trust her? Or has he always been this authoritarian?Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
In a moment of inattention, Bowen Carter stumbled and nearly fell to the floor when she pushed him. He steadied himself against the wall, dark clouds building up on his handsome face.
“Believe it or not, I didn’t even try to escape, I just wanted to retrieve the child!” Thinking of the child whose life and death were unknown, Tess Baker’s heart felt like it was being clutched by a big invisible hand, unbearable.
She looked at him, her eyes full of begging, “Bowen Carter, I’m begging you, please let me go find the baby, and when I do, you can punish me all you want!”
Bowen Carter’s fists clenched, a little bit of blood spilling from the bottom of his eyes, a little bit of jealousy corroding his sanity.
Is that how much she cares about that feral seed, that she even begged him for that feral seed?
What about their baby? She hasn’t said a word about seeing Mike since the day before yesterday!
Is it possible that in her mind he is no bigger than Dennis Gate and his kids are no bigger than Dennis Gate’s kids?
“Bowen Carter, please!” Tess Baker stepped out of the trash can and straightened to her knees. The floor was cold, and it traveled cold to her skin, but not as cold as her heart.
She was just trying to get her child back, why was it so hard?
Bowen Carter’s grim gaze locked on her as he squeezed a few words from his throat, “Is that wild seed so important in your mind?”
Important enough for her to kneel down a few times for that bastard and not even give up her dignity?
The word ‘feral’ exploded in Tess Baker’s head, and she bit her lip tightly to resist the urge to fight him off, taking a deep breath as she kowtowed her head, “Please … ”
The moment her forehead touched the ground, tears dripped down her cheeks and quickly disappeared.
What is dignity before a child?
Even if she had to trade her life for her child’s, she would be willing!
Bowen Carter looked at her with cold eyes, anger screaming madly in his heart.
“Please, Bowen Carter …” Tess Baker straightened up and knocked heavily again. The pain and cold made her want to get up, but the overwhelming desire to find her child kept her firmly on her knees.
He doesn’t care about their child, she does!
Bowen Carter sneered, crouched down and jerked her chin up, “You’ll beg me a hundred times more, and I won’t let you go to that bastard. Tess Baker, don’t make me get that bastard!”
“Bowen Carter, are you even a human being?!!!” Tess Baker’s pupils crinkled and her eyes filled with disbelief as she raised her hand and swung it toward his handsome face.
But the slap didn’t land on Bowen Carter’s face, he clutched her hand, “You can try and see if I dare to get that bastard!”
When he finished speaking, he violently shook off her hand.
Tess Baker was thrown to the ground, tears flowing uncontrollably, not from the pain of the fall, but from her heart.
It was fine for him to call their child feral, and she could leave him alone if he didn’t help find the child, but why was he still trying to get their child killed?
Is his heart … made of flesh?
