Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 16
Malcolm’s tone was not gentle. “Don’t move. Let me have a look at your wound.”
The doctor said that the wound on Tabitha’s back was the most serious. Malcolm did not think too much and directly lifted her
hospital gown. Seeing the grisly wound on her back, he could not help but gasp.
Tabitha’s skin was tanned and smooth. Her back formed a beautiful curve, and the wounds scattered across her back, exuding a
heart-wrenching sense of beauty.
Malcolm’s breathing stopped for a brief moment, and there was a complicated emotion in his eyes.
The moment the wine rack fell, even Naomi’s first reaction was to stay away from him.
Tabitha sensed a burning gaze on her back and tried to resist, but she lacked the strength. Shame mixed with anger made her
pale cheeks turn slightly red.
“Malcolm, have you seen enough?” she asked.
For the first time, Malcolm ignored her sarcasm and said in a hoarse voice, “Does it hurt?”
“Whether it hurts or not is my own business. It has nothing to do with you,” Tabitha retorted.
Malcolm was surprisingly good-tempered today. No matter how sarcastic Tabitha was, he did not just leave. He checked the
wound on her back and then checked her ankle.
Tabitha did not have the strength to resist, so she just let him look at her with a cold expression.
There were indeed some scratches on her lower calf, but they were not as bad as those on her back.

The moment he breathed a sigh of relief, he noticed an obvious scar on Tabitha’s inner lower calf, and his heart suddenly
tightened.
It appeared to be an old scar from many years ago, but it still looked. ghastly and frightening. It seemed to be a scar left after
some animal had bitten off a large piece of flesh.
“What’s wrong with this wound?” he asked.
“I was bitten by a dog when I was little,” she replied.
Tabitha also knew that the wound was too ugly, so she never wore short skirts. All the dresses in her wardrobe were below her
knees.
She tucked the quilt back in, holding back her temper.
“Are you leaving? I want to have a good rest. Don’t bother me here,” she urged.
Malcolm paused and was silent for a moment.
“Tabitha, thank you for today,” he finally said.
After saying that, he got up and left. Then he slowly closed the door of the
ward.
Tabitha was slightly dumbfounded. Since they got married, Malcolm had never spoken to her in such a gentle tone.

Sadly, the gentleness was prompted only because she had saved him.
Tabitha took a deep breath. Holding back her tears, she thought, isn’t a good match for me. I can’t be foolish anymore.”
Then, Tabitha took her medicine and went to sleep.

man
As the wound on her back was too serious, she could only lie on her side. She did not sleep well and kept frowning throughout
the night.
Malcolm left the ward and suddenly felt incredulous.

He never thought that one day, he would be able to stay this calm when he was by Tabitha’s side.
However, the scar on Tabitha’s lower calf reminded him that Naomi was also injured.
After he walked out of the ward, he called Naomi. “Why didn’t you go to the hospital if you’re injured? Got it... I’m going to see
you now.”

Malcolm’s wounds had only been treated hastily, and the scent of blood lingered all over his body. He decided to go home first to
change into clean clothes.
When he passed by the garden, he saw a yard full of blooming tulips.
Considering how he had left Naomi alone in the bar previously, Malcolm hesitated for a moment before he asked the butler to
bring scissors to cut off a handful of tulips.
George watched from the side, hesitating to say something.
But in the end, George dared not say anything. After Malcolm finished cutting, George brought a piece of delicate paper over and
wrapped the tulips for him.
Naomi was waiting for Malcolm at home eagerly. Hatred and fear simmered in her heart as she recalled how the wine rack
almost hit
Malcolm just now.
Although she wanted Tabitha to die, she could not bear to see, Malcolm getting hurt at all.
‘Next time, I must think of a safer way,’ she thought.
When Malcolm came over, Naomi disregarded the wound on her arm and insisted on checking his injury first. As soon as she
rolled up his trousers, she could not help tearing up.
“Malcolm, it was all my fault,” she uttered.

“It had nothing to do with you,” Malcolm comforted.

Looking guilty, Naomi said, “Today, my friend was celebrating his birthday at Four Seasons Bar. I didn’t expect to meet Ms.
Jarvis. I just wanted to say hello and apologize to her. I didn’t expect this to happen...”
Thinking that he had abandoned her, Malcolm comforted her patiently, “I said it wasn’t your fault.”
Naomi immediately cried even more sorrowfully, resembling a distressed child who had been comforted.
Naomi in his arms cried her heart out, but Malcolm found that he could not help thinking about Tabitha.
At that moment, even Naomi’s first reaction was to stay away from him, but Tabitha rushed over to save him without hesitation.
If she had done that just to keep her position as his wife, Malcolm had to say that she was really ruthless to herself.
