Spoil Me More, Dear Huaband

Chapter 277 – Don’t say things without evidence



“… Good. But I don’t feel comfortable with you being a pregnant woman in a foreign country, so you’ll have to give me a call every morning, noon and night to report your safety.” Tess Baker didn’t end up asking Linda what was going on between Mark and Cliff Ford; she wouldn’t push Linda to say anything she didn’t want to.

Linda Mark said she had a 12:15 p. m. flight to catch and hurriedly hung up the video call, still not looking very good until the moment she hung up.

Tess Baker stared at the black screen of her phone for a moment, but told the Mark Family about Linda Mark’s trip to Las Vegas, and comforted them for a while.

Knock knock!

Aunt Zhang knocked on the door and walked in, “Tess, there’s a call from the old mansion, they want you to come over.”

“Why am I suddenly being asked to go over there?” Tess Baker actually didn’t like going over to the old mansion very much; the Carter family was large, each with their own little minds, and one had to be careful about what one said and did.

Aunt Zhang, “The old man didn’t say, only that you should come over.”

She hesitated and said, “The old man wasn’t in a good mood when he called, so watch yourself.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Tess Baker hmmm’d, packed briefly, and took the car to the old mansion.

Old Mansion Hall.

The usually spacious hall seemed a bit crowded at this point, Carter’s fatherCarter’s mother and seven or eight of their generation sat down under the hale and hearty old man, while the younger ones stood behind their respective parents.

The exception was Bowen Carter, who suited up and sat in the first seat to the left of the old man, better than Carter’s fatherCarter’s mother’s seat.

Beside him, Lucy Kid is wearing a white coat with a fox fur collar of the same color, which makes her features more and more dusty, like a fairy who fell into the room by mistake. But this fairy is looking at Tess Baker, the bottom of the eyes have hidden complacency in the flashing light.

“Says Mrs. Carter, who’s no higher than a junior!”

“It’s sad enough to be Mrs. Carter when she’s like this.”

“If I were her, I would never say I was Mrs. Carter when I go out, it’s such a shame that a mistress can get into the house.”

The whispers of people of Tess Baker’s generation continued to reach her ears, and her heart crumpled into a ball, but with a decent smile on her face, she greeted the old man and other elders one by one.

Except for Carter’s fatherCarter’s mother didn’t respond, the other elders didn’t embarrass her face.

Tess Baker ignored her mother-in-law and father-in-law’s smirk and smiled as she looked over at the old man, her pupils shrinking as her eyes touched Bowen Carter and Lucy Kid beside the old man, but she didn’t say hello.

“Hello Miss Baker, what a surprise to meet you here today!” Lucy Kid said in mock surprise.

There was a small roar of laughter in the hall, all laughing at Tess Baker’s failure.

“Quite a surprise indeed.” Tess Baker tucked her long hair behind her ear, exposing her white earlobe, and said lazily, “After all, it’s quite rare to be a mistress to the point of denizenship.”

The smile on Lucy Kid’s face froze, and her white face looked as red as a tomato against the fox fur, and she didn’t know whether she was ashamed or annoyed.

Tess Baker resumed her sweeping glance at the Carter family and pulled a mocking smile to her lips.

The men looked at her smile uncomfortably, but she hadn’t said anything, so they couldn’t do anything. It couldn’t be that she smiled and they went and attacked people!

“Ahem!” The old man coughed dryly, and the hall immediately quieted down.

Carter’s mother squinted at Tess Baker, her eyes full of dislike. In comparison, it’s Lucia who’s gentle and generous, and now that Lucia has Mike’s baby, too, in a little while, she’ll find a way to give this Mrs. Carter position to Lucia!

“Ah Tess, Lucia is having Mike’s baby, you know that right?” The old man said it as a question, but in an affirmative tone.

Upon hearing this, Bowen Carter’s brow furrowed, his eyes colored with intense dislike.

No matter how much his relationship with Tess Baker had deteriorated, he hadn’t thought about finding another woman, much less letting another woman carry his child! Even if Grandpa and Mom and Dad had tried to protect this child, he wouldn’t have kept it!

the Carter family crowd had their own thoughts.

Bowen Carter is not the eldest grandchild, but has a heavy eldest grandchild, and now Tess Baker is pregnant with an unknown male or female, and Wendy Summer is pregnant with another.

The first three of the fourth generation kids are Bowen Carter’s, so maybe the old man died leaving these kids more of his inheritance, which can’t be good for them!

“Is Ms. Sheng having Bowen Carter’s baby?” Tess Baker raised her eyebrows in surprise, “I didn’t know that, when did that happen?”

Master Carter said the first sentence is to let her follow along to pick up, she does not follow the routine, he has long prepared those words can not find the right opportunity to say.

“You tried to kill the baby in Lucia’s belly the other day, and now you say you didn’t know Lucia had a baby in her belly, and you expect me to believe that?” Carter’s mother stared at Tess Baker as if she were looking at an executioner.

Bowen Carter’s handsome face tightened, “Don’t say anything you don’t have proof of!”

If Tess Baker really minded the baby, he would have arranged for Wendy Summer’s abortion immediately, but she didn’t mind at all!

Hearing this, Tess Baker fluttered her eyelashes a few times and lifted her eyes to look at him; he was actually speaking in her favor?

Carter’s mother blushed hard and wanted to say more, but was stopped by the old man, “Alright second daughter-in-law, I didn’t call Tess over here today and have everyone over here again to hear you argue.”

Carter’s mother could only stop.

“It’s just as well that Wendy Summer didn’t have Mike’s baby, but now that she does, she’s going to have to have it, and we, THE Carter family, aren’t short of money to raise a child.” As soon as Master Carter’s words were out of his mouth, everyone except Lucy Kid and Carter’s mother didn’t look too good.

Bowen Carter’s hands curled unnaturally and his eyes darkened, but he said nothing.

If he insists on having an abortion now, it will only make grandpa more defensive, so he might as well follow his grandpa’s wishes and find another opportunity to arrange an abortion for Wendy Summer.

Carter’s mother, on the other hand, looked at Tess Baker with disdain; the old man had spoken, and she couldn’t believe that this vixen would still dare to harm her future grandson!

“Thanks Thanks Grandpa.” Lucy Kid said sweetly.

Elder Carter frowned, not liking this little girl named Wendy Summer, then said to Tess Baker, “But you don’t have to feel chilled, after the baby is born and given to you to raise, Mike’s daughter-in-law will only be you!”

the Carter family congregation looked at Tess Baker, counting on her refusal; the boy must not stay!

“Okay, thanks Grandpa.” Tess Baker lowered her eyes, the bottom of her eyes were full of self-deprecation, never imagining that she would one day be reduced to such a state!

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Carter’s mother said with great displeasure, “Tess Baker is trying to get him/her killed before the baby is even born, what if the child is abused if we leave him/her in her care?”

And she just wanted to use this child to replace her daughter-in-law, but she couldn’t be blocked by the old man’s words!

As it turned out, before Tess Baker could say anything, there were a bunch of objections–

“Second sister-in-law, you’re going too far. You keep your second brother under strict control, and you don’t even allow him to call a princess when he goes to the club to discuss business. As a result, Mike has a lover, even if he has a lover into the house, there is a child, you put Mike daughter-in-law where ah!”
