Chapter 418 – Master Carter’s Grandma Runs Away
“Sorry, no.” Lawyer Liu always had a smile at the corner of his mouth, but that smile was so hard to see that it stung the eyes, “And you need to hand over all of your communication devices.”
“I don’t remember that being in the law.” Tess Baker clutched her cell phone a little harder; how was she going to get Linda to help her find her child without it?
Lawyer Liu held up his glasses, “Are you going to hand it over yourself, or shall I have my men search it?”
Tess Baker sneered, only to feel her blood run cold throughout her body, “Is this what Bowen Carter ordered?”
Mr. Liu smiled but did not say anything, which is equivalent to acquiescence
“I know.” Tess Baker was furious; if Bowen Carter were standing in front of her right now, she would slap him across the face. But she was helpless, and her struggles were futile in front of absolute power.
She took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in her heart as she pulled out her cell phone, “Lawyer Liu, right? Making a lot of money with Bowen Carter, right?”
“It’s not much, just enough to support my family.” Attorney Liu slammed his cell phone to the floor in front of Tess Baker, “Then let’s go now, Grandma Master Carter.”
Tess Baker followed Lawyer Liu out of the cottage and into a van.
She sat in the back row with two bodyguards in suits sitting beside her on the left and right, standing by.
“I’m just a woman with no hands, I’m still in the middle of my monthly period, and Lawyer Liu even found two people to watch over me, it’s really a big deal.” Tess Baker’s words were filled with sarcasm.
Lawyer Liu wasn’t annoyed either, and just said gently, “These two were also specially arranged by Master Carter, and I don’t want to disappoint his good intentions.”
Tess Baker blanched, then smiled to herself and closed her eyes without speaking.
There’s nothing to say.
She deserved to go to jail for her crime so she wouldn’t have to owe Bowen Carter a favor. The last thing in her life was to owe favors to her enemies!
The car didn’t go to the police station or the court, but straight to the prison.
“It’s good to be rich and powerful, you don’t even have to go through the most basic process, just send them straight to jail.” Tess Baker taunted.
“Actually Master Carter originally wanted to go through the normal process.” Lawyer Liu said, “But the amount of money involved in your case is too big, if you go through the normal process you may be sentenced to death, Master Carter thinks it’s too cheap for you, it’s better for you to do a lifetime in prison.”
“He’s treating me real thick.” Tess Baker’s heart churned with anger and her throat was so hard she clawed at it and coughed several times before she stopped.
Lawyer Liu didn’t bullshit her anymore and went up to shake hands with the warden and said something.
The warden didn’t seem to agree, frowning several times in Tess Baker’s direction, and talking to Attorney Liu for a while before the two of them agreed.
“Bring her with me.” The warden pointed to the two guards.
The wardens stood left and right in front of Tess Baker, grabbing her arm and following him.

“I’ll say it one last time, all of you, get out of my way!” Bowen Carter said in a cold voice.
The bodyguards didn’t move a muscle, just shielded Lucy Kid’s side.
Lucy Kid tightly covered her stomach, her heart bursting with fear, but her face was a soft and weak look, “Bowen, did you misunderstand? I’m really Wendy Summer!”
Why does Master Carter suddenly know she’s a fake?
Did she lose it somewhere, or did Master Carter hear something from someone else?
What can be done about it!
“Heh!” Bowen Carter sneered, not bothering to explain, he just knew that this person was a fake, there was no need to continue acting with her here.
He stepped forward and swung a fist into the face of the bouncer in charge.
The bodyguard didn’t dodge, he just covered his bruised face and said, “Master Carter, this is what the old man himself ordered down, please don’t make things difficult for us, or else we can only fight back.”
Bowen Carter’s handsome face clouded over and he was about to strike again when his cell phone rang.
He took out his cell phone and glanced at the caller ID; it was a call from the bodyguard in charge of watching Tess Baker. He picked up the phone, wrinkled his eyebrows and asked, “What is it?”
“It’s not good Master Carter, Grandma Master Carter has escaped!” The bouncer sounded panicked.
Bowen Carter’s face was ugly as hell, “What the hell are you doing running away from her even with so many of you watching her?”
Bodyguard, “Grandma Master Carter grabbed Staphen Baker’s cell phone, called Young Master Gate for help, and was taken away by Young Master Gate. We didn’t know that Master Gate would come with so many people to rob people, so … so …”
“Bunch of losers!” Bowen Carter hung up the phone with a handsome face and looked at Lucy Kid with cold eyes, “We’ll take our time settling the score.”
Said he left in a hurry.
Dennis Gate Dennis Gate Dennis Gate Dennis Gate, Dennis Gate again!!!!
Do Dennis Gate and Tess Baker really think he’s dead?!!!!
Until his figure left, the bodyguard he punched dialed out a number and respectfully said, “Master, that side has called, Master Carter should have believed it. Okay, I will keep a close eye on this matter and report to you the first time there is a situation.”
…
the Mark Family.
“Tess? Tess can you hear me?” Linda Mark was so anxious that a layer of sweat broke out on her head, “Can the others hear me? You guys hurry up and let go of Tess or I’ll never let you go! You …”
The phone hung up there.
“Fuck!” said Linda Mark, unable to control her swearing, and redialed the phone, which reminded her that it was turned off, and that the person on the phone known as Lawyer Liu must have taken the phone away from her!
Mark’s mother, who had just come out of changing her clothes and was about to go to the movies with Mark father, saw this and asked, “What’s going on here that’s pissing my daughter off like this?”
“Master Carter has the nerve to do it, I’m embarrassed to say it!” Linda Mark’s face was red with anger, “It was the wiretap thing a while back, Master Carter had obviously said he would not pursue Tess for her fault, and now he’s actually suing Tess again!”
The smile on Mark’s mother’s face was gone, Tess was involved in so much money that if she was charged, the outcome would never be good!
“Indictment is indictment,” Linda Mark said with a big exhale, “that lawyer Master Carter got actually asked for an early forfeiture of Tess’s communications equipment, my ass!”
Mark’s mother, “Don’t talk like that when you’re a little girl, it’s not nice.”
Linda Mark, “What time is it, and you’re still bothering me with this?”
At that moment, Mark father came out and asked what happened when he saw that both mother and daughter did not look good. After hearing what happened, the Mark Family was not in the mood to watch the movie, and the family was sad.
Mark father called both the court and the police station to confirm that Tess Baker was not with them.
“And where is Tess now? She’s still in her monthly cycle, she can’t afford to go through all this!” Mark’s mother was getting more and more upset with Tess Baker, she could get into any kind of trouble.
Mark father comforted her, “And don’t worry, A city is so big, surely we can find Tess.”
Linda Mark was silent for a few moments before she said, “Mom and Dad, I’ll be honest with you, the hospital said that Tess gave birth to a stillborn baby, but the hospital did a DNA test between the baby and Master Carter and found out that the stillborn baby wasn’t his child.”
She continued at THE Mark Family’s shocked look, “So this dead baby isn’t Tess’s either, her baby was switched, and it’s still unknown where the baby actually is, dead or alive.”
Tess and the fact that she hadn’t told her mom and dad because she was worried they wouldn’t be able to handle such exciting news, but now she really couldn’t keep it to herself.
