Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 45

Tabitha was glad that she had a backup copy of the important documents. in her bag.

Naomi didn’t know what it was but had an ominous feeling. She instinctively wanted to grab it but Sylvie had

already taken it.

All the information and evidence could be seen at a glance. Sylvie trembled with anger. She couldn’t help but

slap Naomi in the face with all her strength.

“Why do you want to harm me? You're the one who introduced Mr. Weiss. to me. If | can bechis legal wife,

you'd have nothing to lose. You'd only stand to gain! Why did you do this to me?”

Naomi held her face. She knew that things were worsening by the second, but she gritted her teeth and acted

aggrieved.

“Sylvie, you've misunderstood me. Tabitha has a grudge against me, so she’s trying to slander me,” she said.

Tabitha ignored Naomi and answered Sylvie in a cold voice, “Think about it carefully. Did Naomi always try to

instigate and urge you to hateor even take revenge on me? Who do you think will benefit the most if | lose

my baby?”

Sylvie immediately understood everything.

Her eyes widened in fury, and she glared at Naomi. “I thought you were my best friend, but you used me!”

The rage of being played with and betrayed caused her to lose all rational thought. She screamed like a

madwoman, thrusting the knife at Naomi.

Naomi’s pupils shrank and she hurriedly stepped back, but the blade. quickly cut the back of her hand. Blood

immediately gushed out of the

Seeing this, the other pregnant women screamed nonstop in fear, and the scene beceven more chaotic.

Sylvie had lost her mind and wanted to attack Naomi again. The security guard in the hospital rushed over in

tand quickly stopped her.

Tabitha coldly watched as the farce unfolded. She still couldn’t get rid of her hatred.

When Malcolm got the news and rushed to the hospital, Sylvie had already been taken away by the police.

On the way here, he was filled in on what had happened. When he arrived at the ward, he saw Naomi sitting

there with a pale face and bandages on her hands.

Malcolm frowned and looked at Naomi coldly. “Aren't Sylvie and you good friends? Why did she suddenly attack

you?”

Naomi explained, “Tabitha was afraid Sylvie would hurt her, so she framedand said | was the one who tipped

off Mrs. Weiss...”

She seemed unable to continue and cried even more sadly.

The look in Malcolm's eyes was unfathomable. He said slowly, “Sylvie hurt you. Do you wantto put her in

jail?”

Naomi couldn't understand the look in his eyes. A slight cold chill suddenly ran down her back. In the end, she

chose to display the safest reaction. “Forget it. She and | are friends, after all, and she just lost her child. She

only hurtbecause someone agitated her.”

Malcolm just hummed lightly and emotionlessly in response.

Naomi was even more confused.

She felt that Malcolm had becharder to read than ever.

But she didn’t dare to show it. She just leaned into his arms and whispered, “Malcolm, | was so scared. Will you

break up withif I lose our baby?”

Malcolm frowned imperceptibly. He pushed Naomi away, held her arm, and helped her to sit down. Then he

relaxed his brows a little.

“You should take good care of your wounds first. Don’t think too much,” he said.

Seeing that he avoided answering, Naomi didn’t know how to feel. She bit her lip and asked again, “If the baby is

really gone, we can just have another one, right?”

‘Another one?‘ Malcolm thought. He subconsciously rejected the idea.

When he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something and looked up at the door of the ward.

Tabitha was standing outside the door, looking at him indifferently.

“I just happened to pass by. I'm leaving right now. You guys continue your

conversation.”

The doctor gave her santi-abortifacient pills just now, and she happened to pass by here on the way to

retrieve them. She didn’t mean to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Tabitha had no interest in arguing with Malcolm and was about to leave.

Malcolm hesitated for a few seconds before calling out to her, “Are you all right?”

From Saul’s description, he knew that Sylvie had gone after Tabitha initially and even pointed a knife at her.

Tabitha replied without looking back, I’m fine. You can report back to Grandpa Alaric without worry.”

She said she was fine, but her footsteps were very weak, and she walked slowly. The wide coat draped over her

body made her back look extremely

thin.

“This woman always puts on a strong front, he thought.

Malcolm pursed his lips. Somehow, Tabitha’s appearance made him a little irritated.

“I'll ask my assistant to send you home.” He spoke in a deep voice, which had a tinge of worry that he didn’t

even notice.

Naomi had a grim expression on her face. Her fingernails slightly dug into her palm as unease and alarm arose

within her heart.

Ever since Tabitha appeared, Malcolm's attention was completely focused on her.

“No need. You'd better send more people to keep an eye on the darling in your arms. What if Sylvie goes crazy

and stabs her to death one day?” Tabitha said.

She paused in her steps and laughed sarcastically. “If that happens, there may not be another person like my

father who is willing to rush up to save her. Mr. Sinclair, you should keep a good eye on her so that she won't

harm others.”
