Saul glanced at Malcolm, noticing that the latter was completely. distracted, and sighed. He then told Alaric briefly about Naomi’s. miscarriage and her attempt to frame Tabitha.
Alaric frowned. “Naomi had a miscarriage, but why did Tabby get injured? Did she hurt Tabby?”
Saul was also a little puzzled. “I don’t know.”
“It was my fault.” Malcolm suddenly spoke in a low and hoarse voice, choking with sobs, “She was in a bad mood. I didn’t notice it. I asked her many details about Naomi’s procedure…”
Alaric got angry and said, “Who’s to blame if it wasn’t you? If you hadn’t come back with a woman like Naomi, this wouldn’t have happened to Tabby! How many times has Tabby been in the hospital since Naomi appeared? If something happens to Tabby… I will not spare you!”
Malcolm knew he would not forgive himself if something happened to Tabitha.
Too many things had happened these days, and in the course of spending time with Tabitha, he had changed his mind about her.
His pride and Tabitha’s indifference prevented him from admitting it.
At this moment, the door of the ward was pulled open, and the nurse shouted, “The patient had a cardiac arrest. Now the doctor is going to use cardiotonic. But she just had an abortion, and I’m afraid she can’t take such powerful drugs… Who is the family member? Come and sign the papers!”
Malcolm looked at the nurse in disbelief, feeling her voice was so un that it seemed to come from another time and space.
‘What does the nurse mean by cardiac arrest? Tabitha, is she going to die? Malcolm thought.

There was a buzzing in his head, something slamming into the memory, lashing out with fierce and violent emotions…
“Malcolm, you’re back? I made your favorite fish taco. Malcolm, you like tulips, don’t you? Do you think the flowers in our garden are beautiful? Malcolm…” He remembered so much that Tabitha had said to him.
At this point, Malcolm finally admitted that he liked Tabitha!
He had liked her long before, not out of guilt or his duty as her husband.
He liked her for who she was.
Whatever it took, he wanted her to live.
“I am her husband, Malcolm spoke with difficulty, each word scraping at his throat like the point of a knife, drawing wild pain.
“Sign it now.” The nurse handed over the critically ill notice. “Doctors need to prescribe the medicine immediately, and it will be more dangerous if they delay for another second.”
Malcolm took the pen and quickly signed it. By the time he finished, his hand was shaking uncomfortably.
He grabbed the nurse and said, “Tabitha will be fine, won’t she? Please, she must be saved.”
Malcolm was handsome, and the nurse’s heart was moved by his pale whisper of pleading.
She handed in the letter of acknowledgment and quickly walked out to inform the family of the actual situation.
“The patient’s condition is not encouraging. She was in poor health, and getting pregnant was already a dangerous thing, and later she suffered large and small injuries, especially this time. Accidental miscarriage is too serious damage to the body… At one point, the heart stopped and doctors had to do everything they could. In addition, patients have little will to survive.

Almost out of breath, Alaric immediately pressed hard on his chest and “the butler hurriedly took out the medicine for him to take.
Malcolm’s hands were cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
‘Tabitha doesn’t want to live… It must be because of me,’ Malcolm thought.
He was the one who did so much damage to her in this world.
Malcolm pressed his hands against the glass window, his knuckles white as if he wanted to go through it and hold Tabitha’s hand, begging her to live.
He had a lot to tell her. She couldn’t die!
Just then, the nurse drew a curtain over the window to screen the room. from all eyes.
Malcolm’s heart sank.
With bloodshot eyes, Alaric pointed at Malcolm and cursed, “You bastard! If anything happens to Tabby, I’ll make you pay for it!”
As time went on, the people waiting outside became more and more
silent.
Alaric could no longer curse and prayed repeatedly in his heart that Tabitha would be fine.
As long as Tabitha was fine, he was willing to trade ten years of his life for her safety! Anyway, he had lived long enough, but Tabitha was still young.
Malcolm looked down, his eyes red and bloodshot.
He said to himself over and over again, ‘Please don’t let anything happen
to her.’
The plaster had not been removed from his foot, and he stood for a long
