Chapter 148
Chasing His Runaway Wife
Tabitha lowered her voice but spoke clearly.
After listening to what she said, Malcolm frowned and disagreed, âWhy do you do this even though you know thereâs something wrong with Emmanuel? If you really want to take revenge, I can help you.â
âIâve made up my mind. Itâs up to you whether you agree or not,â Tabitha insisted.
After leading Malcolm out of the bedroom indifferently, Tabitha pressed her back against the door.
She thought sadly, âFor a long time, Iâve been investigating all those things alone. Now that Iâm very close to the truth, so what if Malcolm has found out Naomiâs true colors? After losing the baby, thereâs no possibility of a second chance for us.
That night, Tabitha had a very long dream. In it, her baby did not die but was born into the world smoothly and grew up healthy.
She repeated in her dream that she would avenge the baby.
After waking up, Tabitha looked around the bedroom and realized that her baby had not been born as smoothly as in her dream, and she could not hear her calling her âMommyâ in a soft voice.
Tabitha shivered.
Even though summer was around the corner, she still felt cold.
But a moment later, she quickly recovered her mood, washed up, and changed into a long purple dress with lowâheeled canvas shoes.
Malcolm also did not sleep well last night. He woke up early and sat in the living room reading a newspaper.
BBBBNN 51% 16:17 When Tabitha went downstairs, he caught sight of her long purple dress, and his heart skipped a beat.
She was already frail, and in that dress, she looked more like a high school student who was still studying. She did not look like she was married at all.
Thinking of what she said the night before, Malcolm felt a surge of uneasiness.
Malcolm was worried that if Emmanuel saw her current look, he would be even more reluctant to give up on her.
Tabitha saw him staring straight at her and nodded in response.
Breakfast was ready. She sat down for breakfast, and Malcolm also went. over to sit with her.
Seeing her eat quickly. Malcolm could not help but ask, âAre you going to meet Emmanuel today?â
Yes. The recital starts at 7:30 p.m. at Universal Theater,â Tabitha replied instantly.
She did not ask for his help again. She had made up her mind and would not change it under any circumstances.
Malcolm understood it was difficult to change her mind and nodded without further persuasion. âOkay, got it.â
wen After breakfast, Tabitha to the hospital to see Alaric first and then to the clinic as usual.
As expected, Emmanuel was there waiting for her with the reason to ask her to help him apply the medicine.
Seeing that Malcolm did not come with Tabitha, Emmanuel seemed to be in a good mood and smiled brighter.
JGBGBMM 51% 16:17 âIt seems Malcolm didnât tell Tabitha the truth, or she would have hated me and stayed away from me.
In that case, I would have gone mad,â he thought.
Î Tabitha observed his expression while carefully applying medicine on him. Then, she said, âYouâre recovering well. You donât have to come to get medicated again tomorrow.â
Emmanuel was taken aback. âBut when I woke up, my wound still hurt, and I felt a little dizzy,â he claimed.
Tabitha looked at him seriously and said, âThe wound is fine now. But if you are still not feeling well, you may have to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.â
Her eyes were so clear that she seemed to see through all his thoughts. For a moment, Emmanuel felt his hands and feet stiffen and did not know where to place them. He felt uneasy.
âThereâs no need to go to the hospital. Itâs too troublesome. Just help me treat itâ¦â Emmanuel insisted.
âEmmanuel, do you still feel uncomfortable?â Tabitha continued with some regret, âI have two recital tickets here. I originally wanted to ask if you had time to come to the recital with me. But since youâre not feeling well, then let me ask Mdm. Sinclair if sheâs free or notâ¦â
Before she could finish, Emmanuel quickly agreed, âItâs okay. Iâm just a little uncomfortable. I think Iâll feel better after half a day. If you need someone to accompany you, Iâm fine.â
Emmanuel was so anxious that he failed to maintain his gentleness, and all his thoughts were written all over his face.
Tabitha sneered in her heart, but she acted a little shy. She showed him the two recital tickets and said, âAt 7:30 p.m., a renowned pianist, Ulysses Goya, will perform at Universal Theater. I have always liked him. It took 51% 16:18 me some effort to buy these two tickets.â
âI like Mr. Goya too.â Emmanuel controlled his beating heart and smiled. gently. âIf you donât mind, can I have one of the tickets?â
âOkay, but Iâll keep the tickets for you. Iâll wait for you at the gate of Universal Theater.â Tabitha happily handed him one of the tickets and showed him the time. âSee you at half past seven in the evening.â
The words âwait for youâ and âsee youâ from Tabitha caused Emmanuelâs ears to feel hot after he sensed some affection in them.
He responded in a low voice, âOkay, see you later.â
In the past, he had indeed done everything by all means to fight for power and hurt Tabitha in a despicable way. But he decided to turn over a new leaf and do whatever he could to make it up to her, as long as Tabitha liked him little by little.
Emmanuel could not focus on his work almost the whole day and felt that every second past that day was extremely long.
He acted so strangely that his secretary could not help but look at him a few more times when she came in to get him to sign the documents.
At the same time, Malcolm also felt the same about time. Although he was well prepared for it, he was still worried that an accident might happen.
He walked back and forth in the office, looking a little anxious.
He knew that Tabitha was acting, but he still hated Emmanuelâs obsessive gaze at Tabitha. In particular, Tabitha would talk softly and kindly to him⦠The mere thought of such a scene could easily increase his discomfort.
Besides, Emmanuel had a bad record. He was worried Emmanuel would use dirty, despicable tricks to deal with Tabitha again.
Saul could not help saying, âMr. Malcolm Sinclair, everything is ready. We BB BBMM 51 15:18 can definitely trap Mr. Emmanuel Sinclair tonight. Donât worry too much.â
Malcolm did not say a word but nodded slightly.
In Malcolmâs point of view, Tabitha already knew Emmanuelâs true colors, so even if his plan did not work out, letting them watch a recital together would not change anything.
However, the incident confirmed that Tabitha would invite other men to watch recitals in front of him without any consideration for his feelings, and it proved Tabitha did not like him anymore. That made him most. uncomfortable.
It was finally five oâclock in the evening. Emmanuel immediately got up and walked out of the office to go home. He wanted to change into a more elegant outfit before going to the appointment.
As he walked out of the building, he saw Naomi getting into Malcolmâs car and could not help frowning.
âMalcolm has already discovered Naomiâs true colors, but why is he still meeting her? Why is he still acting so attentive and considerate?â he wondered.
Thinking that Malcolm was still actively looking for evidence, Emmanuelâs face darkened slightly. He immediately stopped a taxi and asked the driver. to follow them.
Saul saw the car following through the rearview mirror and smiled. âMr. Sinclair, as expected, he is following us.â
Naomi immediately turned around and saw the car following closely behind. Her face was pale with nervousness. She said to Malcolm in a panic, âMalcolm, Emmanuel is cruel. If he finds out that Iâm fooling him, he may kill me.â
âDonât worry.â Malcolm looked at her in disgust. âIâll keep you safe as long sx 16:18 Chapas as you listen to me.â
It was rush hour after work, so there were traffic jams everywhere. Saul deliberately drove to places with more cars. They were still at the downtown area after driving for half an hour.
Seeing that it was past six oâclock, Emmanuel secretly worried that if he continued to follow them, he would miss the appointment with Tabitha.
On his second thought, Naomi was on the same side as him. He did not think she would be so stupid as to tell Malcolm the truth.
There should be no need for me to be so nervous, he reassured himself inwardly.
When he saw it was almost time, Malcolm said to Naomi, âText Emmanuel now.â
Naomi immediately picked up her phone and edited a text message as Malcolm had said earlier: [Mr.
Sinclair, Malcolm suddenly came to me today. He wants to take me to meet someone. He didnât say anything when I asked who weâd be meeting but only told me he had found out the truth about Tabithaâs accident. What should I do now?]
After typing the message out, she showed it to Malcolm before sending it.
