Chapter 133
The rain gradually let up as they drove back to the suburbs in silence.
After Tabitha went back to the house and packed her luggage, she told Emmanuel, “I’m truly thankful to you and Ms. Sinclair for the past few days.”
Emmanuel was not in a good mood and faintly hummed a response.
When Tabitha finished packing her luggage, Lorelai was back. A little surprised, she asked, “Tabby, why are you carrying your luggage? Where are you going?”
Tabitha said, “Grandpa Alaric is unwell. I’m going back to take care of him.”
“Are you moving out?” Lorelai was a little reluctant to part with her. She found Tabitha a pretty good person to talk to, and she thought even. Emmanuel was easier to get along with when Tabitha was there.
“Mhm. Thank you for taking me in these past few days, Mdm. Sinclair,” said Tabitha.
“What nonsense. We’re family.” Lorelai took her hand and said, “If you want to stay here in the future, please tell me. You’re always welcome here.”
“OK,” Tabitha replied.
After Tabitha and Lorelai exchanged a few more polite words, Emmanuel brought Tabitha back to the Sinclair manor.
When the butler, George, learned that Tabitha was back, he came out to greet her happily. “You’re finally back, Mrs. Sinclair. You have no idea how much Mr. Sinclair missed you.”
Initially, George was a staff of the Sinclair manor. After Tabitha married

into the family, Alaric was worried Malcolm would bully her, so he arranged for George to follow her to the Sinclair residence and take care of her.
Tabitha greeted George with a smile and went upstairs to put away her luggage.
When she got to the bedroom. Tabitha was slightly dazed. She had not expected she would be back here again.
However, Tabitha did not get lost in her thoughts for too long because she had more important things to do.
Although Tabitha had found nothing useful after staying at Emmanuel’s house for a few days, she had learned of a very important name.
Emmanuel had a trusted subordinate named Douglas Lynch.
Tabitha had gleaned this name out of Lorelai when Emmanuel was not home.
More than once, Lorelai had seen Douglas come to see Emmanuel. They would spend the entire morning having discussions in his closed study.
After acquiring this information, Tabitha immediately told Lorelai, “Mdm. Sinclair, that person may be Emmanuel’s subordinate who is working for him abroad. Don’t mention this to anyone again, and don’t let Emmanuel know you talked about it either.”
Lorelai did not know what Emmanuel was doing abroad and was a little afraid of him. After hearing Tabitha’s advice, she naturally,did not make a slip in front of Emmanuel.
When Tabitha learned of Douglas‘ name, she told Trevor immediately.
After investigating for several days, Trevor finally found something that day. He had just left Tabitha a message.

There were too many people outside, so Tabitha dared not reply. She did not call Trevor until she entered her bedroom and closed the door.
“What’s the situation exactly?” she asked.
On the other end of the call, Trevor said, “This Douglas Lynch is Emmanuel’s confidant. He helps him deal with dubious affairs abroad all year round. Since Emmanuel returned home, he has also come back
twice.”
The first time was last October, to Quilton.
The second time was two months ago when Naomi had an abortion.
Both times were connected to Naomi.
“I happened to find out earlier that the first time Naomi met Malcolm after she returned was also at Centennial Hotel in Quilton…” added Trevor.
Thus, all the information was now lined up.
Now Tabitha was a hundred percent sure that Emmanuel was behind Naomi. Furthermore, he was the one who had arranged for Naomi to get close to Malcolm.
However, all this information was not important to Tabitha at all.
She did not care about how Malcolm and Naomi had ended up together
anymore.
She was looking for proof that Naomi had left her parents to die.
Trevor felt that the matter regarding Naomi was becoming increasingly complicated as the investigation progressed. He commented, “According to what we know so far, not only does Naomi have Giuseppe protecting her, but Emmanuel is secretly helping her, too. Perhaps figuring out why Emmanuel wanted Naomi to get close to Malcolm could break the bond between them.”

Trevor’s investigation would only go smoother if Naomi lost Emmanuel’s
support.
Two backers? Tabitha thought..
Abruptly, something occurred to Tabitha. “Didn’t you say that Giuseppe has returned to the country?” she asked.
“Yes, he’s back in Heaventown,” answered Trevor. “His father was severely ill a while ago. He came back for the allocation of the family’s assets. I heard his father passed away a few days ago, and he’s having a huge fight with his brothers because of the unequal distribution.”
Tabitha pondered for a moment before saying quickly. “Find a way to inform Giuseppe that Naomi is in Xosa. Moreover, please ensure he believes Naomi has found another backer using his dirt. And imply that the backer is Giuseppe’s rival.”
Although her voice was not high in pitch, Trevor was alarmed when he heard her.
He thought, “This lady of the Sinclair family is tough and clever. If she really wanted to plot against someone, I’m afraid few are her match.”
Trevor replied, “Got it.”
Trevor quickly delivered the information to Giuseppe.
At that time, Giuseppe was holding the small amount of the family’s assets that he had received, his chest filled with anger. The information from the investigator was like pouring water into boiling oil, causing his rage to
erupt.
“That whore, Naomi, used the video to threaten me back then and made me deal with Cornelius, costing me a lot of money. How dare she curry favor with my brother with the video now?‘ thought Giuseppe.
