Chasing His Runaway Wife
Four Seasons Bar was a famous elite nightclub in Xosa.
As soon as Tabitha walked to the door, she heard the ambiguous sounds coming from inside, causing her to furrow her brows slightly.
She couldnât help wondering, âWhy arrange to meet in a place like this?â
However, the eagerness to know the progress made her try to ignore the discomfort in her heart and walk in.
A young waiter led her to a cubicle.
Tabitha sat down and waited for nearly three minutes, but Vernon, the private investigator, didnât show up.
A mocking voice suddenly sounded in her ear. âHuh? Isnât this Mrs. Sinclair? Why are you so lonely, sitting here alone?â
Tabitha looked up and saw a woman with blonde curls looking at her with hostility.
Tabitha knew her. It was Pauline Grayer, who accompanied Naomi to confess and apologize to her back then.
Not far behind Pauline, there were several people, probably celebrating someoneâs birthday.
Surprisingly, it was Naomi who sat in the middle of the crowd.
âHow could it be so coincidental?â Tabitha exclaimed inwardly.
Tabitha calmly suppressed her doubts and was about to leave.
Pauline stopped her and said, âWhatâs the hurry? Itâs my birthday. Why donât you come and have a drink with me?â
Tabithaâs voice remained emotionless and indifferent. âIâm not familiar with you. Get out of the way.â
âDo you have to be so arrogant just because youâve become Mrs. Sinclair?â

All the people on the table looked at Tabitha.
These women were heavily made up and dressed in luxurious attire, drawing the attention of others in Four Seasons Bar.
Tabitha was wearing a light white long dress. Her slender figure exuded delicacy and elegance, like a lily in a secluded valley, which stood out amid the surrounding chaos and decadence.
as She stood there alone and did nothing to make these people look vulgar.
A trace of jealousy flashed across Paulineâs eyes.
Someone whispered, âWho is this woman? Sheâs truly beautiful.â
âIsnât she the one Mr. Sinclair keeps at home? I heard she comes from a very ordinary background and is quite poor, but surprisingly, she carries herself quite well,â another person said.
âIf Naomi were to live in such a wealthy family for a few years, sheâll be more elegant than her,â another one added.
Almost instantly, Tabitha figured out what was going on. Her thin back straightened, and she looked directly at Naomi.
âNaomi, if you have something to say, just say it straightforwardly. Thereâs no need to beat around the bush and deceive me into coming out, letting a bunch of flies buzz around here; itâs very noisy,â she said.
Everyoneâs expressions changed, glaring angrily at Tabitha. However, due to her status, no one dared to confront her openly.
Naomiâs eyes twisted with jealousy. She stood up and walked to Tabitha, reaching out to pull her kindly, saying, âMs. Jarvis, the doctor said that you should be calm when carrying a baby.â
Tabitha didnât bother to look at her. She said in disgust, âTake your dirty hands away.â

âHow dare you tell such a lie?â Tabithaâs face was pale and weak, but her eyes remained sharp as knives. She continued, âNaomi, have you nightmares in these past few years?â

Seeing that the stage was set, Naomi suddenly knelt in front of Tabitha and began crying sorrowfully.
âMs. Jarvis, Iâm sorry for what happened before. But I really love Malcolm, and I canât live without him.
Please, I beg you to let us be together,â Naomi said.
Tabitha took a moment to react, then immediately turned sideways and said faintly, âIâm not here to see you pretending to be pitiful. If you have nothing else to say, Iâm leaving.â
A light flashed in Naomiâs eyes.
It wasnât easy for Naomi to trick Tabitha into coming here. She wouldnât let her go just like that.
She rushed over and directly grabbed the hem of Tabithaâs clothes. âMs. Jarvis, Malcolm doesnât love you at all. Forcing yourselves to be together wonât bring happiness,â she said.
Tabitha looked at Naomi coldly, her heart ringing with alarm. She kept a vigilant eye on what might happen.
Pauline came over and pulled Naomi, stating, âNaomi, stand up. This kind of person isnât worth making you kneel.â
âPauline, let me be. I must get Ms. Jarvis to agree today,â said Naomi. She was crying so hard that she grabbed the hem of Tabithaâs clothes, successfully forcing Tabitha a few steps closer to the wine rack.

Tabitha said patiently, âTake your dirty hands away. I donât have time to watch you act.â
Pauline thought she was righteous and accused Tabitha, âWhatâs there to be proud of? Is it only because Mr. Alaric Sinclair favors you? Otherwise, would Mr. Malcolm Sinclair fall for someone like you? Naomi is pregnant with Mr. Fosterâs child now, so you should get out of the way quickly.â
Tabitha sensed their malicious intention, and an ominous feeling grew stronger. Without mercy, she pulled back her clothes and immediately walked toward the door, not to waste time on them.
Naomi fell to the ground and winked in a direction not far away.
As soon as Tabitha walked to the door, a drunken man suddenly came out and grabbed her wrist, smiling maliciously.
âWhat a beautiful lady. Have a drink with me,â the man said.
