Chapter 470 – He Couldn’t Forgive Himself
Knock knock!
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
“Come in.” Bowen Carter avoided Tess Baker’s gaze for a moment; every time she looked at him like that, it was like frying in oil for him.
Someone pushed the door and walked in.
The visitor was holding a large bouquet of flowers, which were more than half a person high and blocked the person’s face. The bouquet was beautifully wrapped, but the inside was not real flowers, but a rose folded with a hundred yuan, and the green leaves and branches were made of fifty yuan.
The bouquet of flowers was a good weight, and the visitor placed them on the ground before revealing his round face.
“Sir, where do I put the flowers?” Aunt Zhang asked.
She really couldn’t guess Mr.’s mind more and more, before sending clothes, jewelry, bags and whatnot was quite normal, directly sending such a big bunch of flowers made of RMB, would it seem too vulgar?
And that strip of paper folded into a star, something so childish that Mr. actually sneaks out and folds it for two hours every night at two or three o’clock, and writes on it very carefully.
Would Tess really feel touched if she received something so childish? She thought it was pretty much up in the air.
Bowen Carter, “I got it.”
He went to the door and picked up the bouquet, carried it over to the bed, and passed it toward Tess Baker, but before she could take it, he withdrew it and placed it on the table beside the bed.
Something this heavy will tire her out.
Aunt Zhang retreated without moving and gently closed the door behind her.
Tess Baker frowned at the large handful of yuan-folded flowers; what the hell was Bowen Carter up to again?
Duh–
The phone suddenly vibrated.
[Mike] Did you get the flowers? (Cute) (Cute)
Without waiting for Tess Baker to reply, two more tweets were sent over there in quick succession.
[Mike] It’s not real flowers, it’s just a bunch of money stacked up. Did Mommy get it?
[Mike] Mommy, you mustn’t lose your temper with daddy don’t, this must be taken. After discussing with my six uncles, I think it is more convenient to bring some cash when escaping, at least when you spend cash you will not be located!!!!All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
The bouquet was not well secured when placed on the floor, and Bowen Carter was half bent over and was placing the flowers, with her eyes positioned just above Tess Baker’s cell phone by almost twenty centimeters.
Tess Baker was about to reply to the little one’s message when she realized that Bowen Carter was looking at her, the depths of his eyes unfathomable.
Her heart stuttered and she subconsciously put her phone away, placing it next to her pillow. She looked at him, not quite sure if he had seen what was on his phone.
But he stood in such a position and at such a height that with a quick swipe he could see what his son had sent her.
“You get some rest and call me if you need anything.” Bowen Carter glanced at the bouquet, frowned, and left.
Tess Baker inclined her head to look at the bouquet beside her, these should be about a hundred thousand dollars, it would indeed be a lot easier to take them with you when you run away.
But that look Bowen Carter just gave her made her think that he had seen the tweet Mike sent. But if he did see it, according to his character he would break it up on the spot and take the bouquet back again.
So I guess he didn’t see …?
Duh–
[Mike] Mommy Mommy ?????
Tess Baker glanced at the closed door and held down the voice button, but without speaking, it switched back to the text editing screen.
[How come your Sixth Uncle discusses these things with you?]
She had never been good at second guessing people with the utmost malice, but the wiretap thing and the series of things that had happened had taught her not to be too naive about things.
She didn’t know Wind Carter very well, they had met three times in total. Bowen Carter is Wind Carter’s third brother, even if their relationship is not good, but it is better than her relationship, Wind Carter has no reason to help her escape!
Just be afraid this is Bowen Carter talking to Wind Carter to test if she’ll run away.
Tess Baker took her cell phone, already warmed by body heat, and tapped words on it with cold hands and feet.
[I won’t leave you and my sister, stop talking about running away.]
Duh–
[Mike] Uncle Six wants to help me with Mommy. He’s a good friend of mine! (CHUCKLES) Don’t forget to put that money away and hide it, and when you get a good chance, you’ll run away!
Tess Baker was still trying to talk him out of the idea, she didn’t want her son to piss off Bowen Carter over her. but the little guy said he was going to start class and she had to stop.
…
Parlor.
Bowen Carter sat on the couch with his head hung low, his fists clenched so hard that his bones were white. Couldn’t see his expression, but could see the hideous veins bulging in his neck.
He saw it.
Son tweets Tess Baker, he sees it.
He had no intention of prying into her privacy or suspecting her of anything, he just happened to scan the screen of his cell phone while fiddling with the bouquet.
It turned out that her son had helped her with so many ideas, just to give her a better chance of success in her escape.
How much of a failure is he as a father and husband that his women want to run away from him and his son finds ways to help his women run away from him?
Nanqi Bowen pounded his chest one at a time, clenching his heart so tightly that it was the only way to get air through.
He wasn’t angry, what he had was just heartache and guilt, he had hurt them so much, I’m afraid he might not be able to gain their forgiveness in his lifetime!
Aunt Zhang looked on the sidelines and sighed, Mr. and Tess for so many years, there are not a few days to have a good time, and this does not know what kind of conflict is going on!
“Sir, if you’re not happy about something, just be straight with Tess. If the two of you don’t say anything to each other and just keep it bottled up like this, this misunderstanding will only get deeper and deeper.” Aunt Zhang carefully persuaded.
She knew that she was just a maid and shouldn’t be in charge of so many things, but seeing as how these two kids had feelings for each other but tossed them around for so many years, she just couldn’t let go!
Bowen Carter propped his hands on his knees and lowered his head, his voice a little muffled, “Aunt Zhang, do you think I’m an asshole too?”
Aunt Zhang didn’t say anything, it was really not a good thing to say.
“Do you think it’s possible for me to be forgiven by Tess Baker and the children after all the wrong I’ve done?” The word ‘forgiveness’ was said with extra difficulty.
Aunt Zhang opened her mouth with great difficulty, and after half a day of this did not utter a complete sentence.
“My daughter is lying in the hospital, I should go see her.” Bowen Carter looked up, exhaustion on his handsome face, “But I don’t dare.”
He didn t know what to do with that child, he had called her a bastard and caused her to contract sepsis … Just like Tess Baker said, he was not qualified to be his daughter s father!
“You shouldn’t feel too guilty.” Aunt Zhang advised, “No one would want to see Miss contract sepsis, all of this is blamed on that irresponsible moon center. You have already avenged the young lady by making the people in the moonchild center be punished, she definitely won’t blame you.”
Bowen Carter shook his head, there was no way he could forgive himself, he’d rather it be him that got the disease if he could!
