Chapter 486 – Grand Finale VII
“Snowy has been clamoring to see Master Carter, so since Master Carter is here, bring her down.” Frank Duke said to the bodyguard.
One of the bodyguards stepped forward and said carefully, “But the doctor has already sedated Miss Cole.”
“Then wake her up.” Frank Duke said.
Bouncer, “But …”
The bodyguard’s scalp tingled at his gaze, and he swallowed all the rest of his words and went upstairs to find Snowy Cole.
Could it be that Frank Duke called Bowen Carter over just to fulfill Snowy Cole’s wish? Tess Baker really can’t figure out what’s going on in Frank Duke’s mind.
“Don’t worry.” Sensing her agitation, Bowen Carter whispered down.
Tess Baker thought it would suck for her to have him around, but the truth was, he made her feel inexplicably at peace with him.
After about ten minutes or so, Snowy Cole was brought down, mentally drained.
But the moment she saw Bowen Carter, her eyes instantly lit up, and a touch of little woman’s petulance appeared on her face, “Carter, you finally came to see me! I knew that you wouldn t be angry … with me!”
She lunged in Bowen Carter’s direction, but before she could reach him, she was yanked over by Frank Duke.
She struggled hard, and when she couldn’t, she grabbed Frank Duke’s hand and bit it hard, “Let go, you let go of me, I’m going to get Carter!”
Blood dripped down Frank Duke’s hand and onto the floor.
But Frank Duke was still laughing, like he couldn’t feel the pain, “Snowy, do you like Master Carter that much?”
“I like Carter, I only like Carter!” said Snowy Cole, blood staining the corners of her mouth, with a maniacal and slightly contemptuous demeanor, “Frank Duke, you’re dead to me, I’ll never like you in my life!”
“Hey, it’s really sad.” There was a flash of loss under Frank Duke’s eyes, but he quickly recovered as usual, he gave a wink to his bodyguards, and immediately two of them stepped forward and clamped down on Snowy Cole left and right.
Snowy Cole wriggled and struggled, the occasionally exposed skin densely bruised.
Tess Baker can’t tell you what’s going on inside.
“Kneel down.” Frank Duke snapped as he took a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the back of his hand.
No one answered and no one made a move.
Frank Duke paused in wiping his hands, looked up, and said, “Master Carter doesn’t want to take Grandma Master Carter with him?”
“What do you mean?!” Tess Baker’s heart missed a beat, then thumped like it was going to jump out of her chest.
Frank Duke casually threw the blood-stained handkerchief onto the dining table, his voice was gorgeous and loving, as if he was talking about love, “Snowy used to say that the Wei family was a dog in front of THE Carter family, so I want to show Snowy what Master Carter looks like as a dog. ”
Hearing this, Bowen Carter’s expression didn’t change much.
But Tess Baker was so angry that her face twisted a little, “Are you crazy?!”
“Heh!” Frank Duke laughed softly and swept lazily at her, “If Master Carter doesn’t get on his knees, I’ll have your legs broken, and if he doesn’t learn to bark, I’ll cut out your tongue, what do you think?”
He said it so breezily that it was as natural as saying it was a beautiful day.
Tess Baker, however, heard chills all over her body; she hadn’t had much contact with Frank Duke, but she knew that he wasn’t kidding.
Bowen Carter on her knees, learning to bark or have her legs broken and her tongue cut out? How can a man of Bowen Carter’s caliber, who is the only one who ever threatens anyone, be on his knees, learning to bark and being bullied?
Lucy Kid stood by and tried to speak several times, but in the end just opened her mouth and said nothing.
“I’ll get on my knees and learn how to bark at a dog, okay?” Tess Baker’s eyelashes blinked fast as she clenched her fists to hold back the anger that kept rushing through her heart.
Her mom and brother hadn’t insulted her before anyway, and it was a good deal for her to get down on her knees and learn to bark to save her tongue and legs!
Poof!
At that moment, Bowen Carter suddenly dropped straight to his knees and said in a cold voice, “Is that all right?”
His handsome face was calm, but his fists were clenched tightly, and the veins on them popped up.
Everyone in the restaurant was stunned that Master Carter … Master Carter actually had to get on his knees for real?
“And barking dogs oh.” Frank Duke bends over and smiles, leveling his eyes with Bowen Carter.
Tess Baker’s eyes glazed over and she walked quickly toward Bowen Carter, “Don’t …”
The words just came out of my mouth–
“Woof woof.”
Bowen Carter learned to bark twice with difficulty, and the veins on the backs of his hands looked like they were about to burst through the surface of his skin.
There was a peaceful silence in the dining room.
Tess Baker bit her lip, her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and tears poured down her cheeks. Bowen Carter… Bowen Carter had any idea what he was doing? He was doing whatever Frank Duke told him to do. Was he stupid?
“Get up!” She quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and walked over to help Bowen Carter up.
“Not dead, why are you crying?” Bowen Carter’s hand under his sleeve clenched into a fist, but his handsome face did not show half … he did not want to let her have a psychological burden.
It was fine if he didn’t speak, but when he did, Tess Baker couldn’t stop the tears from falling down her face. She tried to speak several times, but when she opened her mouth, whimpers filled her throat and she couldn’t get a word out.
Lucy Kid s eyes were full of envy, Master Carter was so good to Tess Baker, if only … she glanced in Frank Duke s direction, if only he could be like that to her, no, if only he could be a percent like that to her, she would be happy.
Seeing Tess Baker’s tears pouring down her face, Bowen Carter’s heart ached so much that he wiped them away and pulled her toward the door.
“Wait a minute,” Frank Duke called to them from behind, his eyes rippling, “I didn’t say Master Carter learned to bark so he could take Grandma Master Carter.”
Tess Baker’s eyes were crimson as she turned to look at Frank Duke and squeezed a few words from her throat, “Frank Duke, don’t you go too far!”
She should have trusted Bowen Carter.
If she believed Bowen Carter, she wouldn’t be stuck with Frank Duke and Bowen Carter wouldn’t have to get down on his knees and learn how to bark!
Snowy Cole is stopped by two bodyguards, and the noise is distracting as she yells at Tess Baker’s little bitch about getting her killed one minute, and Bowen Carter about how much she loves him the next.
“What would Grandma Master Carter want if I went overboard?” Frank Duke smiled wickedly.
Tess Baker breathed heavily as anger grew in her heart and swam through her limbs, yet she could do nothing but stare angrily at Frank Duke.
“What more do you want?” Bowen Carter shielded Tess Baker from Frank Duke’s view of her.
“And Master Carter knows that Snowy loves you so much that she’s crazy to still be thinking about you.” Frank Duke walked over to Snowy Cole, hooked her chin and kissed her on the lips, “Do you think she would still miss you if you were missing a leg and crippled?”
Lucy Kid’s pupils crinkled and she covered her mouth before stifling the scream that almost escaped.
“Frank Duke, you’re committing a crime!” Tess Baker stormed out from behind Bowen Carter, her voice a little shrill from being overly drawn out.
Is Frank Duke crazy?
It’s not enough that he made Bowen Carter get on his knees and bark like a dog, he tried to cripple Bowen Carter?
Frank Duke lets go of Snowy Cole and says breezily, “Crime? I don’t care.”
