Malcolm did not want to overdo it, so he just stopped there. He maintained his peaceful expression and uttered with a faint smile, “Send the soup to Tabitha first. Don’t let her get hungry.”
Emmanuel smiled and replied serenely, “You’re right.”
When he came out of the ward, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. His handsome countenance was terrifyingly icy.
‘I must make Malcolm and Tabitha get a divorce!‘ he thought.
Whether it was for Alaric’s recognition or the delusion in his heart that he dared not admit.
Emmanuel stood outside Tabitha’s ward and took a deep breath. He quickly returned to his gentle and refreshing appearance.
As for Malcolm, not long after Emmanuel left, Saul came over with a solemn expression. “Mr. Sinclair, you asked me to investigate the incident. between you and Naomi that night. I’ve faced some obstacles,” he said.
Malcolm’s expression darkened. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
“The surveillance cameras and Naomi’s check–in record couldn’t be found. It seems that some force is protecting her from behind,” Saul answered.
Naomi’s parents were ordinary people. There shouldn’t be someone so influential protecting her.
Malcolm ordered in a deep voice, “Look into it again! Send a few more trustworthy men. I want to get definite evidence as soon as possible.”
“Understood,” Saul responded. After hesitating for a while, he reported, “Mr. Sinclair, Naomi is outside.”
Malcolm instantly turned unpleasant. “Why is she here?” he asked.

Saul answered, “She said she made soup. It’s to nourish your health.” Speaking of this, Saul was already a bit cautious. “The two housekeepers didn’t dare to stop her too much for fear that she’ll get suspicious,” he added.
A trace of weariness flashed through Malcolm’s eyes. He ordered indifferentlyLet her in.”
Soon, Naomi was invited in.
At first, she glared at Saul angrily and walked up to Malcolm. She asked in a soft voice, “Malcolm, why do I have to be blocked by such a person when I want to visit you now? Did I do something wrong?”
Malcolm replied lightly, “There was an important international.
conference I had to deal with just now. You’re pregnant. I thought I asked you not to come to the hospital anymore.”
“I’ve made you soup,” Naomi stated as she put the food flask aside. She opened it. The fragrance of the soup spread throughout the ward. “You’re hurt so badly, so your body needs some nourishment,” she added.
Malcolm was not sure whether it was an illusion or not. He felt this food flask was very similar to the one Emmanuel brought over moments ago.
He wondered if Emmanuel acted so concerned when he opened the food flask for Tabitha.
Malcolm could even imagine Tabitha thanking Emmanuel tenderly, and they continued to chitchat happily.
He stared at the food flask. His eyes were full of hostility and jealousy. His aura became extremely cold.
“Malcolm, what’s wrong with you?” asked Naomi. She had not seen. Malcolm for a long time. His complexion was much better than last time but his expression looked awful. Naomi could not help but ask quietly,

Malcolm suddenly came to his senses and quickly calmed down. “Don’t think too much,” he answered.
Naomi asked aggrievedly, “You don’t allow me to visit you anymore. Did something happen?”
Malcolm looked up at Naomi abruptly. She did not know what was going on in his blue eyes.
The critical look made Naomi uneasy. She was about to speak when Malcolm uttered, “It’s Grandpa’s idea.”
Naomi’s nervous mood finally relaxed a little. She secretly hated Alaric for meddling in their business.
She asked with teary eyes, “Malcolm, does it mean that as long as Alaric doesn’t like me, then I won’t be able to see you at all?”
Malcolm responded, “Don’t worry; the fetus is now four months old. When I get better, I will accompany you to do the amniocentesis. After the results are out, Grandpa will slowly put down his prejudice for the child’s sake.” As he spoke, he looked at Naomi. As expected, he found her eyes glistening slightly.
Naomi was so nervous that her heart was almost at her throat. She
commented cautiously, “But I heard that amniocentesis is very dangerous. Will it hurt our child?”
He comforted, “Don’t be afraid. The medical technology is very advanced. now. It’s like doing a pregnancy test. Everything will be fine.”
“Okay,” Naomi agreed. She hated Alaric for getting in her way but pretended to be contented. “For you, Malcolm, I am not afraid of anything,” she added.

Malcolm finished his soup. Naomi came out of his ward. She happened to see the door of the next ward open. She saw Emmanuel walking out.
Tabitha walked behind to see him off.
Naomi hid subconsciously.
Nevertheless, Tabitha had already seen Naomi’s figure. The corner of her mouth twitched mockingly.
Suddenly, Tabitha realized something and came up with a plan on the spot.
When Naomi came out of Malcolm’s ward, it should be normal for her to show off and mock Tabitha.
She did not understand the reason why Naomi hid herself.
Thinking that Emmanuel was probably the one behind Naomi, Tabitha decided to test her out.
Emmanuel stood outside the door and smiled at Tabitha. “You are in poor health. You don’t have to walk so far anymore. Go back and have a good rest,” he advised.
“Your collar is turned up,” Tabitha commented and stepped forward to help him tidy up his collar casually.
She was so close that the fragrance of her body could not be more pervasive. Emmanuel felt stiff all over, as though his heart was scratched. by something.
