Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones (Tabitha Jarvis) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 

Emmanuel, accustomed to various situations, swiftly suppressed all 

emotions and said with a smile, “Tabitha, I personally made beetroot soup ⚫ for you today. Give it a try. Let me know if there’s any difference between 

it and my mother’s.” 

Tabitha said gratefully, “Put it aside. Thank you.” 

After saying that, she didn’t even look at the food flask and kept talking to Luna. 

She liked Luna so much that she only talked to the latter, totally ignoring the other two men in the ward. 

Chadwick didn’t mind it. As long as Tabitha could be happy, she could have fun with anyone she preferred. 

However, Emmanuel found it slightly challenging to accept such a drastic change in her attitude. 

Tabitha used to listen attentively whenever he visited her. Even if Malcolm were present, her focus wouldn’t waver from him. 

Back then, he relished the euphoria of being prioritized over Malcolm. Now, as a comparison presented itself, he realized he had come to enjoy the distinctive attentiveness she reserved for him. 

‘Where did this little girl come from?‘ thought Emmanuel. 

Tabitha took out a box filled with colorful candy in various cute animal shapes. 

She smiled and said, “I didn’t know you would come yesterday, so I didn’t have any gifts in return for your birthday present. Do you like this?” 

Luna opened the candy box and widened her blue eyes in surprise. “It’s so cute. Thank you.” 

Emmanuel keenly noticed the word “birthday” throughout their 

He had been immersed in handling complicated tausines abroad and those closely investigating the incident at Centennial Hotel Cherefore, he hadn’t paid attention to the happenings in the fcepital 

How could I have missed Tabitha’s birthday?‘ he wondered: 

After a while, Luna was exhausted and fell asleep 

Tabitha took her to the bed and tucked her in affectionately 

At this moment, Tabitha’s eyes were full of tenderness, as if Luna was her most precious treasure. 

Emmanuel suddenly asked softly, “Tabitha, why didn’t you tell me about your birthday yesterday?” 

“It’s not particularly important,” said Tabitha. She then added faintly, “I don’t think it’s necessary to tell you about it.” 

Emmanuel lowered his head to look at her and said. “But we are friends. I will buy you a birthday present tomorrow.” 

Tabitha couldn’t understand the emotion in his eyes. Seeing that he insisted on giving her a present, she could only smile and answer, “Okay, thank you.” 

Chadwick leaned against the wall and frowned at them. Ele kept having the feeling that Emmanuel had impure intentions toward Tabitha. 

However, he didn’t have any proof. Hence, he remained silent about it. 

Emmanuel kept his word and brought Tabitha a birthday present the next day. 

It was a pair of little red koi fish in a small transparent tank. 

There was a lively young girl following behind him. 

However, Tabitha was not in her ward. He only found out that she was

basking in the field downstairs when he called her. 

Emmanuel took the little girl’s hand and repeatedly told her, “Do you remember what to say when you see Tabitha later?” 

The little girl rolled her eyes and said, “I got it. I’m not a three–year–old 

child.” 

Emmanuel looked at the little brat who had just turned four and frowned. 

He couldn’t understand why Tabitha was drawn to little girls who enjoyed misbehaving. 

Upon reaching the field, Emmanuel observed Tabitha in the distance. She sat on a bench, engrossed in phone calls, her lengthy hair loosely tied behind her head, showcasing her flawless forehead. 

A gentle breeze tousled her bangs, and sunlight illuminated her face, creating a scene of tranquility and beauty. 

Emmanuel felt a sense of yearning once more. Approaching her with the little girl, he greeted Tabitha from a distance. 

Upon hearing Emmanuel’s voice, Tabitha promptly lifted her head. As she listened to Trevor’s message, she directed a frown at Emmanuel. 

On the other end of the phone, Trevor asserted that Emmanuel was the mastermind behind the incident involving Malcolm and Naomi spending the night together last time. 

Emmanuel, under Tabitha’s cold gaze, walked slowly toward her, instinctively adjusting his collar. 

Tabitha swiftly ended the call, replacing her frown with a smile as she greeted him.
