Chapter 145
Malcolm’s voice was so cold that Naomi heard it like a mechanical sound, devoid of any warmth.
Naomi was terrified, but she still struggled in her desperation.
“Did you misunderstand me, Malcolm? I only agreed to work with Emmanuel because I like you. But Mrs. Jarvis and Mr. Jarvis were kind to me. How could I be that kind of person…” she said.
Malcolm had noticed that Naomi was panicked, and his disgust grew stronger. “I’m going to give you one last chance because you saved me back then. On the count of three. Three… Two…” he said, emphasizing
each word.
Before he could finish, Naomi couldn’t take it anymore. She cried out desperately, “Yes, it’s true that I didn’t help them back then, and my phone wasn’t broken. I didn’t do it on purpose… Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis held no grudge against me. Why would I want to hurt them? I was just too scared… Malcolm, please believe me, I didn’t mean it.”
Malcolm’s gaze completely darkened.
He mused, ‘As expected! So it’s true! But what have I done to Tabitha? She must have been very sad to see her enemy. I stood by Naomi instead of comforting her and just watched her get hurt and lose control. I even felt she was being rude…
Malcolm closed his eyes, not daring to recall it.
The memory was a torment to him almost every minute and every second.
Naomi cautiously said, “Malcolm… I beg you… Please don’t leave me alone. I will atone for it.”

Chapter 145
Malcolm’s gaze was like a cold knife immersed in a cold pool, carrying a chilling intent to the bone. He said, “How are you going to make up for all the bad things you’ve done? You should kneel before Tabitha to repent and beg her to forgive you.”
He thought to himself, ‘Perhaps I should do the same thing. But Tabitha said that despite everything I do, she will never forgive me.’
Naomi shouted in fear, “No! She will send me to prison!”
“Then, you can solve the problem yourself,” he replied.
‘Such a vicious woman! It would be too easy for her even if she were dragged into hell!‘ he exclaimed inwardly.
When Naomi saw Malcolm was about to leave, she quickly grabbed his hand and said, “I’ll turn myself in! Please save my life, Malcolm. I can help you get evidence on Emmanuel. As long as you have evidence against him, you can kick him out of Sinclair Group…”
It was beyond Malcolm’s expectation that he could find out so much information just by orchestrating the car accident.
In fact, he only found out that Emmanuel had cooperated with Naomi. However, he did not find any conclusive evidence.
It might be a good plan if Naomi could get the evidence.
Nevertheless, Malcolm didn’t even try to hide the disgust in his voice as he replied, “Okay, I’ll give you one week to get the evidence. If you turn yourself in, I’ll think about getting you a lawyer.”
I’m going to find a lawyer and send you all to prison. You will spend the rest of your lives in there to atone for everything you have done to Tabitha!‘ he exclaimed inwardly.
Malcolm looked at the sunlight outside after leaving the hospital and

found it too bright. For a moment, his eyes hurt so much that he could not bear it. He also felt like his whole body was being stabbed.
Saul followed from behind. When Saul saw that Malcolm had a strange expression on his face, he could not help but ask, “Your hand is still injured. Mr. Sinclair. Would you like to stay in the hospital for further examination?”
It was mainly because Malcolm’s elbow had recently been injured. Now that it had been injured again, Saul was afraid that Malcolm’s old injury. would recur.
“No need. It’s just a minor injury,” Malcolm said.
Malcolm did not return to the company. When he asked Saul to check, he was informed that Tabitha was accompanying Alaric at the hospital. Therefore, he went to the hospital immediately.
At that moment, Alaric watched television with Tabitha, unaware of her injury.
Tabitha explained the television plot to him. Her soft voice penetrated deeply into people’s hearts.
Just then, Malcolm walked in and saw her holding Alaric’s arm. She leaned against his shoulder occasionally.
She had a smile on her face and sparkling eyes.
Despite her troubled past, she always wore a sincere smile when she accompanied Alaric.
Therefore, it was not surprising that Alaric liked such a sincere girl.
At that moment, Malcolm suddenly felt extremely grateful Alaric had insisted that he should marry Tabitha.
Nevertheless, Malcolm wanted to strangle his old self for not knowing how

When Alaric saw Malcolm standing silently at the side, Alaric snorted coldly and said, “I heard you came back last night. Why didn’t you take Tabby to the hospital?”
Tabitha instructed George not to inform Alaric about the car accident, fearing it would trigger his heart problem.
However, she was walking oddly that morning. She explained that she had sprained her ankle.
Alaric felt sorry for her because she had a sprained ankle, but she still came to the hospital to accompany him. So he was displeased to see Malcolm arrive late.
“I have something urgent to attend to at the company,” Malcolm explained in a low voice.
When Alaric saw his listless look, he was slightly unhappy, but his heart softened.
He turned to Tabitha and said, “He must be too tired after coming back from his business trip. Why don’t you go back first and let him rest?”
Tabitha nodded obediently as she said, “Okay.”
On the surface, she and Malcolm seemed to be on good terms now. Moreover, she could only bring up the divorce after Alaric recovered.
That was why she did not have any objections to what Alaric had said.
Even after a night’s rest, Tabitha’s feet still hurt, and she slowly walked out of the hospital with Malcolm.
When she saw that Malcolm exuded a cold aura next to her, she couldn’t help but say, “I’m going back to the clinic first. You don’t have to send me if you’re tired.”

Malcolm did not speak, and he just stared at her.

Her hair was soft and her tiny face was still pale. However, her eyes were extremely bright and clear, making people happy the moment they looked at her.
Even when she acted in front of Alaric, she was not impatient at all. One would be fascinated by the smile at the corners of her mouth.
Malcolm pondered, ‘I have pushed such a good woman away on my own. What should I do to earn her forgiveness?‘
When Tabitha saw that Malcolm did not respond for a long time, she just took it as a gesture that he agreed. Then she turned to hail a taxi.
“Tabitha.” Malcolm suddenly called her name and added stiffly, “It’s inconvenient for you to walk. Let me send you.”
Tabitha remembered the terrifying scene of being hit by a car the day before, so she did not refuse and nodded. “That would be great, thanks,” she replied.
The hospital was not far from the clinic. Soon, they arrived.
Malcolm got out of the car and opened the door for Tabitha. He saw Emmanuel sitting in the clinic. Judith was pouring him a cup of coffee. Malcolm had no idea what they were talking about, but he could see that Emmanuel suddenly had a gentle smile on his face.
Malcolm’s expression darkened.
Tabitha could not see Emmanuel from her viewpoint. She got out of the car and thanked Malcolm. Then she turned and walked into the clinic.
Malcolm closed the door. He clenched the car door handle tightly, causing his hand to turn white. Finally, he turned around and followed her.
‘Whatever Emmanuel thinks of Tabitha, he is definitely up to no good. I
