Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones (Tabitha Jarvis) novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142 

Tabitha felt the word “like” was too ironic for someone like Emmanuel. He would do whatever it took to achieve his goals. He even could cooperate with a woman like Naomi, so Tabitha thought he had no bottom line. 

Tabitha felt no need to be ethical with people who did not have a bottom line. 

Tabitha had a plan coming into her mind, which was to beat him at his 

own game. 

Emmanuel perceived Tabitha’s concern for him and wished he could spend more time with her. He deliberately drove slowly, but they still reached the Sinclair manor quickly. 

After Tabitha got out of the car, she bent down slightly and said to him, “Thank you for driving me back.” 

“You’re welcome.” Emmanuel said, “If it weren’t for you today, I might have been doomed. In fact, you are my savior.” 

Tabitha smiled and replied, “I just happened to look for you.” 

“But you did save my life.” Emmanuel fixed his eyes on her and continued, “Tabitha, I will repay you.” 

Pretending not to see the emotions in his eyes, Tabitha smiled faintly and agreed, “Okay then, treat me to a meal some other day.” 

Emmanuel was a little disappointed and secretly hated Tabitha for being insensitive, but he quickly pulled himself together. “Good. I’ll definitely remember it.” 

After saying goodbye to Emmanuel, Tabitha turned around and returned. to the house. Coincidentally, Malcolm was hurrying out and ran into Tabitha.

He immediately grabbed her wrist and asked with concern, “Tabitha, where have you been this late?” 

When Malcolm returned from Ackleton, he heard that Tabitha had left the hospital and was back at the Sinclair manor. Thus, he immediately rushed back to the manor. 

But when he returned to the Sinclair manor, he found that she had not come back. So, he decided to go out again to look for her. Along the way home, he was worried about her in the car. He could not rest assured if he 

did not see her. 

Fortunately, he saw her coming back as soon as he went out. 

But the car outside the door that brought Tabitha back had aroused his 

concerns. 

Malcolm frowned slightly and questioned, “Were you with Emmanuel just 

now?” 

Tabitha made no secret of it and nodded. “Yes.” 

She did not want to talk much with Malcolm, broke free from his hand, and walked past him directly. 

Malcolm looked at the car outside that had not driven away and clenched his fists. He pursed his lips, turned around, and followed her in. 

He had already found some clues about the connection between Emmanuel and Naomi. 

Although there was no conclusive evidence to tell Tabitha for the time being, Malcolm must make her understand that Emmanuel had ill intentions. He wanted to keep her away from Emmanuel. 

When Tabitha returned to the house, George saw the wound on her foot and shouted in shock, “Mrs. Sinclair, you’re injured so severely. You should

either stay in the hospital or go home for the recovery. How can you run around at this late hour?” 

Tabitha said with a smile, “I didn’t run around. I just went to Emmanuel’s. house to get something.” 

In a hurry, George made peppermint tea for Tabitha and asked the housekeeper to run hot water for her to take a bath. 

Tabitha thanked George sincerely and went upstairs. 

Her foot was badly hit. She did not feel anything when she beat Jayden hard. But at that moment, she found that the pain was severe after her nerves relaxed. She felt the pain even further when she took a step up the 

stairs. 

But she only frowned slightly, and without showing any pain on her face, she calmly went on to the second step. 

Suddenly, a pair of long arms wrapped from her side and picked her up directly. 

Tabitha’s body leaned backward, and things in her view inverted. She subconsciously wrapped her hands around Malcolm’s neck. 

Malcolm had not been so close to her for a long time. The familiar fragrance in his arms made his heart beat fast. His voice was low and hoarse as he said, “You are seriously injured. I will bring you upstairs.” 

Tabitha’s foot was indeed in pain, so she did not refuse. Anyway, she needed not to be responsible for the hug. 

Malcolm’s arms were long and strong. He held her steadily and firmly but walked very slowly. It was only dozens of steps, but he took more than five minutes up. 

He took Tabitha straight into the bedroom and laid her gently on the

couch. 

Tabitha nodded calmly at him. “Thank you,” she said.

Malcolm pursed his lips and said, “Amy has run the hot water for you. Can you do it alone? Do you need any help?” 

“No need. It’s just a minor injury.” Tabitha immediately refused. “You may go out.” 

“Tabitha…” Malcolm said seriously in a deep voice, “Emmanuel is unkind. You should be on guard when you get along with him in the future.” 

“Why do you say that?” Tabitha looked at him and pretended to be surprised. “He’s gentle and looks like a good man.” 

“Trust me, you can’t imagine what he has done abroad. Anyway, stay away from him,” he emphasized.
