Tabitha felt a little awkward because it was the first time she woke up and saw Malcolm at first sight.
Malcolm, on the other hand, remained calm as he greeted her softly, “Good morning.”
Tabitha found herself increasingly unable to understand Malcolm.
They had been hurting each other every day since Naomi had appeared. But now she suddenly didn’t know how to react to a
relatively gentle expression on his face.
Tabitha grabbed her clothes and went to the bathroom to change and wash up. When she came out, she found that Malcolm was
still waiting for her.
Alaric was up early in the living room downstairs. He was already engaged in a hushed conversation with some visitors who had
arrived.
Tabitha smiled slightly.
She knew that Malcolm was acting calm so early because Alaric was already waiting in the living room.
Tabitha was so lost in thought that she didn’t realize she was missing her steps. She lost her balance and fell forward. She
panicked and instinctively reached to the side.
Malcolm caught her in a flash. Their inertia sent them colliding into the handrail next to the stairs.
Tabitha was so frightened that she closed her eyes tightly and subconsciously shielded her belly.
Malcolm wrapped his arms around her waist in one swift motion and

spun her around without a second thought. As they turned, his back hit the railing, and he couldn’t help but let out a dull, low
groan.
Tabitha did not feel the pain she had expected. Instead, she found herself nestled against a broad, warm chest.
Malcolm’s slender arms were still wrapped around her waist as he asked in a low voice, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” Tabitha replied.
Only then did Tabitha realize the intimacy of their position. She hastily pushed herself out of his arms.
The commotion naturally caught the attention of the people in the living room downstairs.
Alaric was terrified as he watched the whole thing unfold, his heart beating fast.
However, he was somewhat pleased to see that Malcolm was so protective of Tabitha.
“How is Tabby? Come, let me see if you got any bruises,” Alaric asked worriedly.

“I’m fine, Grandpa Alaric,” Tabitha reassured.
Alaric breathed a sigh of relief and gave Malcolm a pleasant look after making sure that Tabitha was indeed all right.
“And what about you, Malcolm? I saw you hit your back on the handrail just now,” he asked.
Malcolm’s back was indeed sore, but it was not enough for him to show it openly.
So he calmly replied, “I’m fine too.”

Emmanuel waited until they had finished talking before greeting them with a smile.
Malcolm glanced at him faintly and greeted, “Emmanuel, you’re here early.”
“Mother got up before dawn to make beetroot soup. She insisted that I should bring it over for Granddad to taste,” Emmanuel
replied.
Emmanuel smiled helplessly and pointed to the two large food flasks beside him, explaining. “She also heard that Tabitha is
pregnant, so she sent some over for her to eat as well. It will nourish the body and boost the immune system.”
The beetroot soup alone took over two hours to cook. When the preparation of the ingredients was taken into account, it was
quite a time- consuming process.
It really took a lot of thought to send it so early.
Since it was also good for Tabitha’s health, Alaric wore a gentle expression and nodded at her as he said, “Tabby, come join us
for breakfast.

The beetroot itself had an earthy taste, but Emmanuel’s mother Lorelai skillfully removed the flavor and made it sweet and fresh.
Tabitha ended up eating two extra bowls.
Alaric was delighted, and his attitude toward Emmanuel improved even
more.
“Your mother is also weak. Tell her she doesn’t have to get up so early. If she wants to be filial, these foods can be brought later,”
he said.
“Okay. She’ll be happy to know that Granddad cares so much about her,” Emmanuel replied, smiling brightly.
Alaric turned to look at Tabitha and Malcolm after exchanging a few words

with Emmanuel.
He pondered. “The two of them seemed to be making some progress earlier. Why didn’t they communicate during breakfast? But
Malcolm has been so worried about Tabby just now that he doesn’t even care about his own injury. It shows that he cares about

her a lot.
Alaric suddenly asked, “Tabby, are you going for a return visit at the hospital today?”
Tabitha nodded and replied, “Yes. I have an appointment with the doctor.
at 10:30 am.”
“My knee problem has recurred these past few days, so I can’t accompany you to the hospital,” Alaric said.
Tabitha hurriedly asked, “Your knee hurts again, Grandpa Alaric? Have you seen a doctor about it?”
Malcolm also looked up
immediately.
“Yes, I did.” Alaric replied, waving his hand. He then continued, “It’s just a minor issue, but I’m worried about you going to the
hospital alone.”
“It’s okay. Amy’s coming with me,” Tabitha said. She smiled, feeling a warm tug at her heart.
“No, you can’t. You’re not in good health. What if something happens. again, like just now on the stairs...” Alaric said.
Alaric was talking to Tabitha, but his eyes kept looking at Malcolm.
Malcolm caught on and curled his lips, saying, “Grandpa, I’ll accompany. Tabitha.”
Tabitha was slightly taken aback. She was aware that Malcolm had been coerced by Alaric and was about to suggest otherwise.

However, Alaric had already spoken with a smile, “I’m relieved that you’re by her side.
Tabitha could say no more with the decision made.
The two quickly left the house, and Emmanuel also excused himself and left.

Emmanuel sent a text to Naomi as soon as he left the Sinclair manor.
Tabitha’s visit to the hospital was not only for a physical exam but also for a prenatal check–up.
Malcolm patiently dashed around various counters, not showing even a hint of impatience. In fact, Tabitha sensed a hint of
inexplicable tenderness in his movements.
Tabitha averted her gaze and refused to look at Malcolm.
Tabitha proceeded to the ultrasound examination room after seeing the doctor on her return visit.
The three–month–old fetus was already taking shape, but the limbs and facial features were still undistinguished, curled into a
small bundle.
The doctor explained the condition of the fetus while showing the screen to Tabitha.
Tabitha lay on the examination bed. When she saw the tiny baby on the screen, a soft and joyful expression involuntarily
appeared on her face.
Malcolm sat nearby, feeling a slight pang at the sight of her smile.
He thought to himself, “Tabitha is eagerly awaiting the birth of the child, but if she were to find out...
