Naomi burst into tears and quickly said, “It’s all because of the idental deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis.
Ms. Jarvis was so sad that she lost her mind, but I don’t me her.”
While Tabitha was still feigning unconsciousness and had yet toe to, Naomi had already taken the
opportunity to tell Malcolm about the incident that happened back then.
Malcolm frowned slightly. “It wasn’t your fault. Don’t me yourself for what happened back then.”
At that moment, all color drained from Tabitha’s face upon hearing his words.
The man she loved deeply chose to believe and defend a murderer who killed her parents!
“Leave!” Tabitha said. A chill ran through her spine from the pain, but she tried her best to endure it.
“Get out of here, you shameless couple!”
Initially, Malcolm felt slightly guilty for hurting her, but the guilt soon disappeared as his face darkened
upon hearing her words.
“Shameless couple?” he repeated. All the warmth disappeared from his gaze as he looked at her
condescendingly. “You and the baby in your womb are the ones who truly make me sick, Tabitha!”
For the past two years, she had shown him consideration and care, all while knowing her ce.
He also had some feelings for her.
Due to his guilt, Malcolm had originally nned to leave the house to her, along with arge sum of
money.
Yet, he had never expected her to be so hypocritical and greedy.
Tabitha trembled. She clenched her injured fist, and soon, the metallic

She looked at Malcolm absentmindedly and could not help feeling sad.
“Malcolm, you’re abandoning our baby for her?” she asked.
Naomi’s heart leaped to her throat, and her heartbeat elerated upon hearing Tabitha mention the
child.
Malcolm’s eyes suddenly turned icy, finding the situation ridiculous. He could not help but wonder how
he had never realized how good Tabitha was at acting.

“You’re most aware of how this child came by, Tabitha, and you expect me to want it?” he spat.
His string of words pierced Tabitha’s chest like a sharp arrow.
Indeed, they had been sleeping in separate rooms for two years.
If it were not for the alcohol and drugs that night, Malcolm would not
have even touched her.
Malcolm pursed his lips grimly, and his eyes were cold. He did not reply directly and instead said,
“Grandpa treats you like his own, Tabitha. If you have any conscience remaining, you should really stop
using him.”
Tabitha opened her mouth to speak but could not say a word.
She knelt on the ground and stared nkly ahead. All of a sudden, she felt extremely tired.
Malcolm looked at her ashen face and tried to calm down. With a

Tabitha took a few seconds to confirm that the hurtful words truly came from Malcolm’s mouth.
This was the kind of man she had loved dearly for so long.
Tabithaughed and tried her best not to let her tears fall.
“You want me to make way for Naomi?” she asked.
Suddenly, as if she had gone mad, she picked up a ss shard and threw it at Malcolm and Naomi.
“Dream on! I’ll never let this murderer get what she wants! Not in this lifetime!” she screamed.
Naomi narrowly avoided being hit by the sharp ss shard as Malcolm pulled her away just in time.
‘Tabitha is a lunatic!’ Naomi thought.
However, she could not let them talk about the baby anymore.
Naomi took Malcolm’s hand and earnestly said, “Stop agitating Ms. Jarvis, Malcolm. Let’s leave first
and let her calm down. She’s pregnant, after all.”
Naomi’s deliberate emphasis on the word “pregnant” somehow mellowed Malcolm’s almost
uncontroble anger.
Tabitha’s emotions were all over the ce. She looked like a broken porcin doll, making everyone
feel reluctant to force her.
Malcolm paused as he looked at her bleeding hand. Finally, he suppressed his anger and left with
Naomi.
Tabitha sat unmoving on the ground. Her broken heart was numb, and she could not feel any more
pain.
For some reason, Malcolm turned around to look at her as he reached the door. The thin silhouette
reflected in his eyes made him feel a little
strange.

Somehow, Tabitha’s silhouette reminded him very much of the woman from the hotel that night.
The thought shed across Malcolm’s mind. He could not help butugh at himself. He must have
been so angry with Tabitha that he had such a ridiculous delusion.
The door of the ward was closed, and the room was eerily empty and quiet.
Tabitha gritted her teeth as tears welled in her eyes. “Dad… Mom…”
The tears she held in finally rolled down her cheeks uncontrobly.
She regretted falling in love with Malcolm.

Tabitha stayed in the hospital for two days and actively cooperated with the doctors’ instructions.
In just a few days, she had rapidly lost weight, her eyes became sunken, and her defined face became
even more haggard.
The sight of Tabitha made ric want nothing more than to tie Naomi up and throw her into the sea to
feed sharks.
Given that he had a slight improvement in his condition, he immediately picked up his walking cane and
poked Malcolm, who was next to him.
“Don’t sit here with me all the time, brat. Tabby is your wife. You should spend more time with her,”
ric urged.
Malcolm furrowed his brows. However, to prevent ric from getting worked up and hurting himself, he

ric was constantly using board members to threaten him for Tabitha’s sake. This was not the first
time it had happened.
Malcolm could not wrap his head around ric’s obsessive love for Tabitha. Even if Tabitha’s grandpa
had saved ric before, it was still puzzling to Malcolm overall.
