Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones (Tabitha Jarvis) novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Tabitha had just recovered, and her tone was a little unsteady due to

anxiety. As soon as she finished speaking, she coughed, and the cyan blood vessels on her forehead slightly bulged.

Chadwick hurriedly held her and said worriedly, “Tabby, you just got discharged. Don’t get too emotional.”

Malcolm just thought it was ridiculous.

Tabitha, who used to be as obedient as a cat in front of him, now revealed her claws at him just for the pretty boy.

Noticing Malcolm’s scrutinizing gaze, Chadwick frowned slightly and pulled Tabitha’s sleeve to signal her not to be angry. His gentle eyes didn’t show any displeasure. Instead, he gave Malcolm a kind smile.

He said, “Mr. Sinclair seems to know a lot about plants. I do like to raise some plants in my spare time, but I didn’t expect you to speak highly of this pot of jasmine. If you’re interested, I’ll give you one next time.”

His gentle smile made Malcolm unhappy, and he felt the urge to shatter his calmness.

However, his upbringing in manners since childhood kept him composed. He responded indifferently, “Thank you, but I’m not interested.”

Tabitha calmed down and looked at Chadwick disapprovingly. She whispered, “Why are you polite to him? It’s a waste to give him such a beautiful plant.”

After saying that, she ignored Malcolm’s faintly angered expression and straightforwardly said to Chadwick, “Let’s go. In return, I’ll treat you to a

meal.”

She didn’t want to see the couple behind her at all.

The veins on Malcolm’s forehead were throbbing. He thought, ‘I haven’t even left, and Tabitha blatantly wants to date the paramour alone?’

“Tabitha, don’t forget your current status.” Malcolm couldn’t help but say in a cold voice, “If reporters catch you having dinner alone with another man, the company’s public relations department will have a lot of extra work.”

Tabitha felt that Malcolm was particularly annoying today. She moved her thin lips, but Chadwick looked at Naomi thoughtfully and spoke first. “Mr. Sinclair, don’t worry too much. Tabby is far less famous than Mr. Sinclair. Even if she walks on the main road, others will not know that she is Mrs. Sinclair, but they can certainly recognize Mr. Sinclair.”

He added, “Since Mr. Sinclair can rest assured to appear in public with another woman, it won’t be an issue for Tabby to go out with another

man.”

After Chadwick finished speaking word by word, he looked at Naomi coldly and asked, “Miss, what do you think?”

Although his clear eyes were accompanied by a gentle smile, it made Naomi feel ashamed, as if her innermost thoughts were laid bare.

She smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.

Malcolm’s face grew increasingly grim. He stood in front of Naomi and looked at Chadwick coldly.

Chadwick remained calm and smiled gracefully. He suggested, “If Mr. Sinclair is really worried, why don’t we have a meal together? Tabby is discharged today and we should celebrate it.”

His words completely wiped the smile off Naomi’s face.

Malcolm didn’t respond to him. He pursed his thin lips, and his sharp gaze stared directly at Chadwick. Chadwick didn’t avoid Malcolm. He looked at him with a smile on his face.

The atmosphere between the two was tense. Tabitha pursed her lips and couldn’t help but break the silence at this moment. She said, “Never mind; he’s busy. And with him around, it’ll affect our appetite.”

After saying that, she pulled Chadwick’s sleeve and left.

One of them was tall and slender, while the other was delicate. They looked surprisingly well-matched.

Malcolm felt a slight tingling in his eyes, and the restlessness in his heart was about to become uncontrollable.

He never expected that Tabitha could change her attitude so quickly.
