Chasing His Runaway Wife
M N 53% 16:09 Tabitha was stunned.
There was no way she could tell Alaric that they slept together by accident because Malcolm happened to be drunk.
After a few seconds of silence, Tabitha said calmly, âGrandpa Alaric, the child is gone. When I see Malcolm now, I canât help thinking about that scene. I really canât face him anymore.â
âThat child is gone, but you can have another child,â Alaric said trying every means. All he wanted was to reconcile them. âMalcolm cares a lot about you now. If you try after your health improves, Iâm sure youâll quickly become pregnant again.â
Tabitha was not at all affected when she heard Alaricâs words.
She advised him gently, âGrandpa Alaric, you just fainted. You should get some rest. Donât talk too much for now.â
Upon noticing that Tabitha wanted to change the topic, Alaric became a little anxious. âTabby, if you insist on getting a divorce, youâre deliberately provoking me. You donât want me toâ¦â
As he spoke, he clutched his chest and gasped for breath. It appeared as though he was going to pass out once more.
Tabitha hurriedly supported him and said, âGrandpa Alaric, donât be angry. I promise you I wonât leave Xosa.â
âI wonât leave until Naomi is in jail, at least,â she thought.
Even after hearing Tabitha promise not to leave, Alaric refused to stop.
âAre you still going to divorce Malcolm then? I worked so hard to bring you together. Malcolm is clearly willing to turn back now, but you want a â« BBM M M divorce⦠You two always worry me,â said Alaric.

Tabithaâs heart softened, and she said softly, âGrandpa Alaric, donât be angry. Breathe slowly⦠Donât worry. I promise you I wonât divorce. Malcolm.â
Upon hearing that Tabitha had finally relented, Alaric felt at ease.
s 16:09 Then, as if something had suddenly occurred to him, he blurted out, âYou also canât live with Manny anymore. Jayden hasnât been caught yet. No one knows when heâs going to show up again and commit another crime.â
Obediently, Tabitha replied, âOkay. Iâll move back to the Sinclair manor with you.â
After living with Lorelai for a few days, she learned that Emmanuel didnât hide any secrets at home.
She would have to look into him from another angle.
Tabitha coaxed Alaric to take his medicine before leaving the ward.
Malcolm immediately looked over.
The soundproofing of the wardâs door was not very effective. Everyone outside had heard her conversation with Alaric just now.
When Malcolm heard that Tabitha had agreed not to get a divorce, his depressed mood, which had built up over several days, immediately lifted. His gaze toward Tabitha was filled with gratitude.
He had made a great many mistakes. If Tabitha gave him the chance, he would spend his whole life trying to make it up to her.
Tabitha glanced at Malcolm indifferently before quickly looking away.
53% 16:09 Before she had asked for the divorce, she could sweep things under the rug as if nothing had happened, but since she had asked for it, she could not make peace with Malcolm.
Although she would not mention divorce again for the time being because. of Alaric, there was really nothing to say between her and Malcolm.
She walked up to Emmanuel and asked softly, âIâm sorry. Could you take me back to get some things?â
Emmanuel nodded and walked out with Tabitha.
Malcolm, who had been ignored, felt an ache in his chest, but he knew he had no right to criticize Tabitha.
He was the one who had pushed Tabitha further and further away. Getting her forgiveness would be extremely difficult.
Nonetheless, he was determined to try, no matter how difficult it would be.
Tabitha and Emmanuel stepped outside and watched the pouring rain, which seemed to be falling on the entire city.
Feeling somewhat upset, Emmanuel could not help but ask, âTabitha, how do you feel about this?â
Tabitha looked at him. Her pupils were light in color, and there was a hint. of coldness in her eyes, but they soon became calm again.
âGrandpa Alaric is in poor health. I donât want to enrage him again,â she said.
âBut what about you?â Emmanuel asked in a lowered voice. âAre you really going to spend the rest of your life with Malcolm like this?â
âEmmanuel, why are you so stressed about my personal affairs?â Tabitha questioned.
BGM M DENIS 16:09 Tabithaâs eyes were too clean. They were aloof and tinged with stark indifference.
Emmanuel was almost afraid of meeting such a gaze, for fear that his filthy heart would be unveiled and stain her eyes.
Words danced around his lips, but he could not say them. Finally, he said helplessly, âWeâre friends.
Canât I be concerned about you?â
âThank you for your concern.â Tabitha smiled. âIâm sorry for bothering you recently.â
âAre you moving back in with Malcolm?â Emmanuel asked subconsciously. âYouâve made up your mind? You wonât reconsider?â
âYes,â Tabitha answered seriously. âI donât have a single relative left.
Grandpa Alaric is the last person who treats me wholeheartedly. I canât just leave him alone.â
She could not find anything at Emmanuelâs house anyway, and that safety deposit box could not be opened. Tabitha did not want to waste any more time and was ready to change course.
Emmanuel pressed his lips together tightly and stopped talking.
