Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 29

Naomi did so many little things, all in the hopes of getting them to quarrel with each other.

Hearing this, she felt a burst of secret joy in her heart and hurriedly

stopped the fight with hypocrisy. In fact, she was fanning the flames. “The swimming pool is so deep,

where can we find it? Forget it this time. Don’t quarrel because of me anymore…”

“I didn’t ask you to jump.” Malcolm didn’t look at Naomi and stared Tabitha. “But since you threw it

away, you should find a way to get it back. Besides, this is a public place. I hope you can stay sensible

and don’t go crazy like last time in the hospital…”

Tabitha’s lips tightened. She feared that if she relaxed herself, a choking sound would escape from her

throat.

Naomi was still pretending to plead for Tabitha. “Malcolm, Ms. Jarvis must be behaving this way

because of the loss of her parents. Don’t criticize her like that.”

Malcolm’s eyes darkened. “That’s it for now…”

Tabitha reached out and pushed Malcolm into the pool without hesitation.

“You are the one who should be sensible!” Tabitha cried out.

He used to be the man Tabitha loved, but now she had to push him into a pool for him to come to his

senses. Sadness and hatrell overwhelmed her.

It was December, and the weather was freezing.

The cold pool water quickly overflowed his body, and the coldness seeped into his bones. The chill ran

through his limbs, and his heart seemed to be

frozen for a moment.

Malcolm looked at Tabitha in disbelief.

‘How dare she push me into the pool?‘ Malcolm thought.

Naomi was also shocked by Tabitha’s demeanor and couldn’t react for a long time.

Tabitha stood on the shore and looked at Malcolm, her voice as calm as if she had never done such an

amazing thing. “You care so much about Naomi. Why don’t you help her get the ring back then?”

The noise of the swimming pool attracted some guests‘ attention and they all gathered around to

watch.

Chadwick was a charity ambassador and a special guest at the gala.

After hosting the opening ceremony, he heard a noise and saw that Tabitha was confronting Naomi. He

hurriedly asked the security guard to come over to maintain order and stopped the media reporter and

VIP guests outside the swimming pool.

After arranging everything, he strode over.

“You’ve gone too far. How can you push people into the water in such cold weather?” By this time

Naomi had come to her senses and was accusing Tabitha. “What did Malcolm do wrong to deserve

this?”

Tabitha looked at her indifferently and said, “If you feel sorry for him, why don’t you go down to

accompany him?”

Naomi was afraid that Tabitha would walk her talk, so she hurriedly took a few steps back and stayed

away from Tabitha.

Chadwick walked to Tabitha and asked in a low voice, “What happened?”

Tabitha didn’t expect that Chadwick would be the host of today’s banquet. Although she was a little

confused, she told him briefly what had happened.

Malcolm finally made it to the side of the pool.

He was wet all over, and his hair was messy. His bangs were dripping, and his lips turned pale with

cold.

It was the first time that Tabitha had seen such a messy Malcolm. She made up her mind to look away

from him.

Malcolm walked toward Tabitha with a gloomy face.

Chadwick was afraid that he would get angry and hurt others, so he pulled Tabitha behind his back

subconsciously. But because he was too eager, he accidentally pulled her wound.

The wound on her back was dully painful, and Tabitha’s lips were a little pale. But she just frowned

without saying anything.

Malcolm’s throat choked as he noticed her distressed face.

She was not in good health, so she chose a long–sleeved gown this evening and wrapped her back

and arms tightly.

The wound on her back was because of him, and she hadn’t fully recovered yet.

The image of Tabitha standing in front of him, defending him, came into his mind, and his anger was

suppressed strangely.

“Tabitha, you’ve gone too far today. As the lady of the Sinclair family, you have not displayed the

appropriate mannerisms,” Malcolm said halfheartedly.

As soon as he said that,

even

he felt surprised. Being pushed into the water

by her in public, he could only make such a casual half–hearted admonishment.

Tabitha sneered. “You wronged me first and then you want me to be polite to you?”

Seeing that he didn’t appreciate it, Malcolm was angry again. He laughed and said, “You just admitted

it.”

Tabitha said sarcastically, “The things you should believe in, you don’t. Yet, you believe in things that

seem incredulous at best, Mr. Sinclair. It’s not up to me to decide who is right or wrong. There are

surveillance cameras here, and we can know everything after checking them out. I wonder if Ms. Boyle

has the guts to see it.”

Chadwick echoed Tabitha’s suggestions and said, “Yes. There are cameras around here. They must

record everything clearly. Hurry up and check it. We can’t let Ms. Boyle fall into the water in vain, right?”

Naomi was still watching the show. Hearing this, she froze and her face became a little stiff.

“Why are there surveillance cameras here?” Naomi asked incredulously.
