Chapter 126
Tabitha’s voice was calm and even carried a sense of gentleness, but to Malcolm, it was like a sharp knife that stabbed him in the heart violently.
Malcolm fell into deep thought for a long time, feeling as if his blood had frozen completely and then boiled repeatedly, rushing to the top of his head and flowing to his entire body afterward.
In an instant, he almost thought he lost the ability to breathe.
Malcolm could not believe what Tabitha had said. He wondered who she was talking to about the divorce, thinking whether it was about divorcing their marriage.
He pondered in despair, ‘Why does she suddenly file for divorce? Is she finally tired of me and doesn’t want to live with me anymore?”
Malcolm felt utterly confused and cold, forgetting all his prepared
explanations to Tabitha at that moment. He went back to his ward without uttering a word.
He did not even dare to ask for fear that Tabitha would hand him the divorce agreement.
He knew he had done terrible things to Tabitha. If Tabitha wanted to file a divorce, he had no idea what he should do to make her stay.
Two weeks later, Tabitha finally recovered and was discharged from the hospital.
Malcolm was discharged the same day as Tabitha, and Alaric came early to see them.
Emmanuel and Chadwick arrived, too.
It was already the blooming season.

Chapter 126
In reality, Tabitha did not like the season very much. Once the Blowers in the streets started to bloom, her pollen allergy would get aggraved. Even if she wore a face mask, she still had difficulty resisting the pollen
After going through the discharge formalities, Alaric asked Tabitha again. “Tabby, are you sure you won’t come back to the Sinclair manor
Tabitha shook her head seriously and replied. Tm sure. I’ll return to the Sinclair residence with Malcolm.”
Alaric should be feeling happy that Tabitha was willing to move back to the Sinclair residence, but he noticed that Malcolm did not look happy at all. Recalling the phone call, Alaric felt that Tabitha was secretly planning something.
He then suggested, “Tabby, why don’t you stay in the Sinclair manor for a few more days and return to the residence after your body recovers”
Tabitha smiled faintly but insisted on going back to the Sinclair residence.
Malcolm lowered his gaze and remained quiet, but his fingertips had turned pale from all the pinching.
Emmanuel quietly observed Malcolm and Tabitha’s reaction, raising his eyebrows slightly in a good mood.
After leaving the hospital and returning to the Sinclair residence, George informed the housekeepers to prepare a feast to celebrate Tabitha’s discharge.
Everyone gave their blessings to Tabitha and had an enjoyable time during
the meal.
Malcolm sat next to Tabitha, looking at her indifferent–looking side profile. Something seemed to stir in his throat, and the delicious food eaten into his mouth tasted bland like wax.
After the meal, Chadwick and Colette bid farewell and left first.
Alaric also felt a little tired and wanted to return to the Sinclair manor for
& Yest.
Emmanuel was the last to leave, but Tabitha suddenly stopped him and said, “Emmanuel, wait. I need your help.”
Malcolm widened his eyes and immediately looked at Tabitha.
Tabitha did not look back at him and said to Emmanuel, “Please wait outside. I will meet you soon after getting something from upstairs.”
Emmanuel nodded and smiled gently as he replied, “Okay. I’ll wait for you.”
Although Emmanuel did not know what would happen, he expected it to be good. He walked briskly, even whistling happily along the way.
It was just a simple conversation, but to Malcolm, it sounded confusing and unusually irritating to his cars.
Tabitha went upstairs and simply packed her clothes.
She did not take along any jewelry from Malcolm. She rubbed the ring on her left ring finger and quickly took it off, putting it with the jewelry.
She then turned around and steadfastly went downstairs, walking every step of the way steadily toward Malcolm.
Malcolm stiffened his body by the approach. He behaved like a sinful prisoner and did not dare to move until the moment of his trial.
Tabitha walked up to Malcolm and handed him a document. She said softly. “Malcolm, take a look at this
Malcolm already knew what it was and was reluctant to reach out to take it. He did not even dare to look at it
Chapter 196
His lips had turned pale, and his breathing quickened. His blue eyes turned dark like the bottom of the ocean, with dark clouds churning and a rainstorm approaching.
However, Tabitha seemed not to notice Malcolm’s abnormality and stared at him coldly. She added, “Malcolm, I agree to a divorce. After you sign this agreement, we will have nothing to do with each other?
“Tabitha.” Malcolm struggled to speak, and his eyes were bloodshot “Why?”
Tabitha stubbornly refused to divorce ever since the beginning, but now that Malcolm finally fell for her, she cruelly chose to leave.
Malcolm thought it was not fair.
