Chapter 147
Emmanuel stared coldly at Malcolm as he said, “Just say what you want,
Malcolm.”
Malcolm gave Emmanuel an indifferent look, and his sense of superiority almost caused Emmanuel to lose his temper.
The atmosphere in the car was very tense, as if it would explode at any
moment.
When Malcolm saw that Emmanuel was getting angry after being provoked by him, he said, “Emmanuel, you’d better stay away from Tabitha.”
Emmanuel had not expected Malcolm to ask for that. His expression darkened as he replied, “Tabitha divorced you, Malcolm, and Granddad isn’t in good health. She’s kind and doesn’t want to provoke him. That’s why she didn’t ask you to sign the divorce agreement. So, who do you think you are to tell me to stay away from her?”
Malcolm seemed to remember something. His gaze was gentle and yet filled with deep regret as he said, “Tabitha used to like me, but I hurt her and caused her to miscarry for a woman like Naomi. That’s why she’s disappointed in me. But you were the one who wanted Naomi to stay by my side.”
Then he continued, “Jayden has kidnapped Tabitha, which was the direct cause of her miscarriage. You planned the kidnapping on purpose just to make a good impression on her.”
“Tabitha was already weak, but you had planned to kidnap her regardless of her safety. She almost had an accident and ended up having at miscarriage!‘ Malcolm exclaimed inwardly.
At that thought, Malcolm took a deep breath, unable to hide his anger anymore. “Emmanuel, you did everything you could to get what you

wanted. How dare you want to be by her side?” he said.
Emmanuel’s heart sank instantly. When he thought of Tabitha’s disgust for Jayden the night before, he felt as if an invisible fear tightly gripped his neck.
‘How did Malcolm find out? Did he tell Tabitha? No, I don’t think she knows! She makes a clear distinction between love and hate. If she had known that, she wouldn’t have been so gentle applying medicine to my face just now, let alone talking to me politely,‘ Emmanuel mused.
At that thought, Emmanuel breathed a discreet sigh of relief. He couldn’t help but look up at the rearview mirror.
The gentle facade he had always put on was instantly shattered. The sweat on his forehead revealed his nervousness, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes. It turned out that no matter what he did, he still could not defeat Malcolm.
A feeling of helplessness spread in his heart, gradually destroying his psychological defenses.
Emmanuel looked at Malcolm’s cold expression once again and slowly calmed down.
“Those are just your suspicions. Otherwise, you would have shown Tabitha the evidence a long time ago instead of warning me to stay away from her like this,” he said.
Malcolm thumped the door with his fingers. Then he warned in a cold tone, “If you don’t listen to me, I will tell Tabitha the truth, even if I have no evidence.”
Emmanuel concealed his uneasiness and deliberately said, “She won’t believe you. Besides, she is disappointed in you. No matter what you say, she will only believe what she sees.”

There was a moment of silence in the car.

The pressure from Malcolm’s fingertips intensified with each passing moment, and for a brief moment, he wished he could kill Emmanuel.
However, he suppressed all his emotions and sneered. It was as if he knew everything as he said, “It seems you don’t want to discuss it nicely with.
me.”
Emmanuel did not want to back down. He added, “Malcolm, Tabitha once told me that she would never forgive you. Even if I did hurt her, even if you revealed everything to her, our starting points are the same. From now on, let’s compete fairly. Just give it our best.”
Malcolm stared at him expressionlessly for a few seconds. Then he said, “You don’t even understand human language. Just get out of the car.”
His voice was the same as before. It was calm and well–educated, but if one listened closely, every syllable of it was full of disdain.
Emmanuel opened the door and quickly got out of the car. He had no idea how much evidence Malcolm had and thought he should have agreed to stay away from Tabitha immediately.
However, he finally found a light in his gloomy life. It was impossible for him to let go just like that.
He had never regretted hurting Tabitha as much as he did now. No matter what happened, he would not give up.
Tabitha couldn’t walk properly, so she went home around three or four in the afternoon. She found Malcolm sitting in the living room, flipping through his phone as if he were on a video call with someone. So shel thought he might be dealing with important business.
Malcolm immediately put down his phone and greeted her when he saw her coming back.

Tabitha nodded at him faintly and went upstairs.

Malcolm felt slightly disappointed at being completely ignored. However, he realized that he was used to her indifference.
He pursed his lips and followed her upstairs.
Tabitha might have noticed that he was following her from behind. She started to close the door after entering the bedroom. But Malcolm reached out and held the door open. He said sincerely, “Tabitha, I need to tell you something.”
“I’m a little tired today. Let’s talk about it tomorrow,” she said.
Then Malcolm added eagerly, “It’s important. It’s about Emmanuel and Naomi.”
Tabitha released her hand from the door and let him in, her eyelashes. fluttering.
Malcolm felt his chest heat up as he walked into Tabitha’s bedroom again. However, when he saw that Tabitha seemed impatient, he spoke straight to the point and said, “Emmanuel and Naomi are partners. Do you know that?”
Tabitha was surprised and asked, “How did you know that?”
She thought that Malcolm might never find out Naomi’s true colors because he was deeply in love with her.
Then Malcolm struggled to say, “Not only did I know that, but I also found out that you were the one who was with me at Centennial Hotel that night. Emmanuel was the one who set the trap. That’s why I mistakenly thought it was Naomi that night…”
Malcolm told Tabitha all the information Naomi had revealed to him.
However, Tabitha had known all of those things. Therefore, her expression

did not even change after hearing it.
“Do you have any evidence?” she asked. That was what she was more concerned about.
Malcolm struggled to reply, “No.”

Then he added, “Tabitha, stay away from Emmanuel in the future. I’m going to investigate what happened to Naomi. You don’t have to worry about it anymore…”
Tabitha replied, “Thank you for your kindness. Naomi was the one who lied to you. So it’s up to you whether you want to find out the truth or not. But Naomi has caused my parents‘ death. I must find the evidence myself and bring her to justice. As for Emmanuel… He indirectly caused the death of my child. I will avenge my child in my own way.”
When Malcolm saw the suppressed hatred in Tabitha’s gaze, his lips. turned pale. He suddenly wanted to ask how Tabitha would punish him for being the culprit who had indirectly caused her child’s death.
However, he felt as if something had caught in his throat. He dared not speak for fear that Tabitha would bring up the divorce again if he asked.
It would be the heaviest punishment if she left him.
“Tabitha, I just want to help you,” he said.
“Do you want to help me?” Tabitha asked, raising her eyebrows. She turned to look at him and suddenly added, “Okay, then. Please do something for
me…”
