Spoil Me More, Dear Huaband

Tess Baker didn’t even stop for a second on her feet.

“Do you want to be free?” Bowen Carter asked coldly.

Tess Baker stopped in her tracks and after a long moment, slowly turned to look at him but didn’t make a sound; she didn’t think he would just let her go.

The little one had come running back from the kitchen, looking at this and that, wondering what was going on.

The look in Tess Baker’s eyes made Bowen Carter uncomfortable, and he looked away less naturally as he said, “You can go wherever you want, and no one will stop you again.”

Hearing this, a gleam of light burst from the little one’s eyes.

But Tess Baker was only surprised for a moment, followed by a mocking laugh, “I can go anywhere, but I have to bring someone with me, right?”

Bowen Carter thought she’d be pleased, yet at the moment, looking at the sneer in her eyes, the knot in his throat rolled, but he couldn’t get a word out of it as if something was clogging his throat.

“I’m full, you guys eat.” Tess Baker said faintly, turning around and continuing toward the stairs.

She wouldn’t stop her son from maintaining a father-son relationship with Bowen Carter, but she still felt a little bad seeing the child she’d held in her heart and loved for more than four years being so nice to Bowen Carter.

The little one looked at her back and hesitated just a little before trotting to catch up with her.

“Why don’t you eat breakfast?” Tess Baker asked, turning as she walked.

The little guy minced his lips and asked carefully, “Mommy, did I upset you?”

“… No.” Tess Baker rubbed his little head and whispered, “Go down to breakfast, it’s not good for you to skip it.”

“I’m not hungry.” The little one thought she was unhappy, and was afraid to go down and eat with Bowen Carter for fear of making her angry.

The two had by now entered the hallway and reached the door to their room.

Tess Baker sighed and crouched down, looking at him levelly, “Mommy admits that I’m a little jealous that you and your daddy are so close, but I won’t be mad.”

Mike had always wanted to have a daddy like the other kids, and now that his wish had come true so easily, she couldn’t step in the way.

“Sure you won’t be mad?” The little guy asked apprehensively as he twisted his two little hands together.

Tess Baker looked at him, his eyes full of expectation, clearly recognizing Bowen Carter as a daddy. She pushed down the bitterness in her heart and nodded her head with difficulty.

Hearing this, the little guy’s eyes were filled with joy, but he didn’t dare to show it too obviously.

Thinking he was hiding it well, he asked, “Don’t be jealous mommy, if daddy fights with you, I’ll be on your side, you come first in my heart!”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good boy, go down and eat.” Tess Baker kissed him on the cheek, stood up, and pushed open the door to her room.

Without waiting for her to go in, the little one hugged her leg and called out to Mommy in a milky voice.

“What’s wrong?” Tess Baker asked with a smile as she tried desperately to suppress the loss in her heart.

The little guy was torn for a while before he spoke, “Mommy, you did something wrong before, and Jag Daddy forgave you. This time when Jagged Daddy did something wrong, if he really knows it’s wrong, will you forgive him?”

Scum Daddy is really fast sometimes, but … but he really wants Daddy and Mommy to be together, so that his sister doesn’t have to grow up without a daddy and be laughed at like he did.

Tess Baker’s smile froze on her face and her first reaction was to say no, but she couldn’t say it against the little one’s bright eyes.

But to say she would would be lying to him, and she didn’t want to lie to him.

“Get down to dinner before it gets cold.” Tess Baker digressed.

It’s kind of an indirect way of saying it won’t be forgiven.

The little one gave an oh-so-slightly lost voice and went downstairs.

Tess Baker watched his back, the corners of her mouth narrowing as she closed the door and leaned against it, as tired as she’d ever been.

Even if she did find a way to leave Bowen Carter, would Mike really leave with her? And if Mike doesn’t leave, should she leave then?

Knock knock!

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Tess Baker frowned and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was Aunt Zhang, she was also carrying a bag in her hand, “Tess, this is the cell phone Mr. bought for you, the first thing he did when he was discharged from the hospital was to buy you a cell phone, he was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to get in touch with your friends.”

“If he was really afraid I wouldn’t be able to get in touch with my friends, he wouldn’t have confiscated my cell phone in the first place, would he?” Tess Baker just glanced at the beautifully wrapped bag and didn’t pick it up.

Aunt Zhang smiled sardonically, “Aside from the new phone, Sir asked me to bring your old phone as well.”

She took the old cell phone that Tess Baker had used earlier out of the bag.

“Keep the old phone, you can have the new one.” Tess Baker took the old phone and was about to close the door.

If it was in the past, she and Aunt Zhang would still have something to talk about, but now Aunt Zhang’s every word was about urging her to get back with Bowen Carter or how good Bowen Carter had been to her, and she really didn’t want to talk to Aunt Zhang about that.

“Tess,” Aunt Zhang called out to her, pushing the bag into her hand, “You’d better keep the new phone, or I won’t be able to explain it to Sir.”

Tess Baker looked down at the bag for half a minute before finally catching it, “Just a moment, please.”

When she finished, she went back to her room, took out the five hundred dollars she’d asked for from the little guy, and handed it to Aunt Zhang, “I owe you money.”

“You don’t have a penny in your hand, so it’s better to keep it for yourself.” Aunt Zhang looked complicated, Tess was raw with her.

“No need.” Tess Baker slipped the money into her hand with a polite smile on her lips, “It’s not easy for you to earn some money.”

Aunt Zhang sighed and walked away with the money.

Tess Baker closed the door, took out the cell phone she used before, turned it on, and logged on to WeChat. There were a bunch of messages on WeChat, group wishes, requests for likes or sales pitches, as well as messages from some of her business partners and classmates and friends.

She picked a few of the ones she was reasonably close to and replied to the message, her eyes falling on Linda Mark’s micro-signal, which hung with a red number – 49.

Linda rarely sent her so many messages at once unless she was upset.

The message was posted nearly two days ago.

[Tess, I’m at the bar.]

A picture of the bar is posted below, along with a lot of pictures of the wine.

I saw Cliff Ford in bed today with his little girl, both naked, and the girl was fucking demonstrating to me!

Several photos were posted below, all of Cliff Ford and the woman named Lily Yang lying naked on a bed. In the photos, Cliff Ford is escorting Lily Yang, who is also shirtless, as if warning the person taking the photos.

[I hit the woman with a vase, she bled a lot, Cliff Ford went with her to the hospital, and his mom and the woman’s mom yelled at me, saying that I was divorced from Cliff Ford, and that it was none of my business who he was with.]

[Tess, I suddenly feel like a fool. Super fool.]

Tess Baker frowned as she scrolled down the page, flipping a little slower as she saw a picture of a blonde man.
