Before finding out the truth about the hotel, he could ask for a divorce without any burden. He even
tried to expose Tabitha’s infidelity by amniocentesis and let her request for divorce herself.
However, he now found out how Tabitha’s child had come about, so he could not ask for a divorce
anymore.
On the other hand, if they did not divorce, Naomi and her children would not get the best
arrangements.
Looking at Malcolm’s solemn expression, Alaric was really upset.
Malcolm was talented and ambitious, but he was always indecisive when it came to relationships..
“That’s all I have to say. You can decide how to handle it.” Alaric waved his hand and said, “You may go
now.”
Malcolm walked out of the study and went to work with a heavy heart.
As he was away on business for many days, a lot of papers to sign piled up at the company. Malcolm
stayed busy until late at night.
When he returned to the Sinclair manor, the living room was quiet.

Alaric was elderly, so he was used to going to bed early. Meanwhile, Tabitha was a patient and was
probably resting at the moment.
Looking at the empty living room, Malcolm remembered that Tabitha used to wait for him every day and
took over his coat.
That woman had not smiled at him for a long time.
George left the lamp on, and upon hearing the noise, he came out and asked respectfully, “Mr. Sinclair,
you’re back. Your food is being reheated in the kitchen…”

“No need. You can go to sleep,” Malcolm dismissed him, went to the wine cellar, and brought out a
bottle of liquor. He frowned and rubbed his forehead. Then he sat in the living room and drank alone.
These few days had been chaotic. It was only now that he had managed to forcefully calm himself
down for a moment and seriously consider what to do with Naomi.
Apart from the fact that he could not keep his promise to marry her, Malcolm was also confused.
He pondered, “The manager of the Centennial Hotel recognized Tabitha as my wife, so he gave her my
exclusive keycard.
‘But what about Naomi? How did she get into my room?‘
After drinking a few glasses of alcohol, Malcolm’s head was a little heavy, and he could not make
sense of his complicated thoughts.
Unfortunately, he was too drunk that night. His memory seemed to be clipped off, and he could not
remember the details.
All he remembered was that he was not repulsed by that feeling.
It was this not–unpleasant feeling that made him decide to take responsibility after knowing that Naomi
was pregnant.
‘But what about Tabitha… Malcolm thought as he walked into the garden. to get some air and sat on
the steps against the wall. The cold wind blew over him, and his thoughts suddenly became clearer
than ever before.
Since the details of Naomi’s visit to his room that night were vague, he just had to investigate more
thoroughly.
Tabitha woke up in the middle of the night, feeling parched with a sore. throat. Her head was dizzy, and
she could not breathe properly.

and now caught a cold.
Fortunately, the doctor knew that she was weak and prescribed some cold medicine for pregnant
women.
Tabitha put on her coat and went downstairs to get a glass of water.
After getting the water, she put the glass on the coffee table casually and did not notice that there was
already a glass on the coffee table.
She took a tablet, picked up the glass, and drank it. A spicy and suffocating smell immediately filled her
mouth, making her cough uncontrollably.
It was liquor that she drank.
Tabitha did not care how the water in the glass turned into alcohol. She quickly poured another glass of
water to wash away the spicy taste in her mouth.
She could not drink and would get drunk from a tiny sip.
Tabitha staggered back to her room. She did not know whether it was because of the cold, dizziness, or
drunkenness; she fell on the bed.
Malcolm has had enough cold air outside and tiptoed back to his bedroom. only to find the light on.
Tabitha was slumped on one side of the bed with her slippers and not under the quilt.
He felt a little strange and could not help going closer. Then, he smelled the faint fragrance of alcohol.
He frowned and asked, “Why did you drink?”
Tabitha did not respond. She was either drunk or asleep. Regardless, Malcolm had no choice but to
bend over and pick her up.

He tried to pull the quilt from under Tabitha, but she unconsciously. wrapped her hands around his
neck.

Malcolm gently put her on the bed, trying to break free but not daring to use too much force. He
carefully pulled Tabitha’s hand away, but she slowly opened her eyes.
That pair of hazel irises reflected the light and looked like flying fireflies in the sky.
These hazy pupils from drunkness reflected his appearance at the
moment.
For a moment, Malcolm’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. He felt dizzy inexplicably as if he was drunk.
However, he should have had good alcohol tolerance.
Tabitha opened her eyes slightly, looked at him in a daze, and murmured, “Am I dreaming?”
Her hand gently touched Malcolm’s face, making him shudder like an electric shock.
Tabitha’s arms were still wrapped around him, and she did not seem to realize how ambiguous this
gesture was.
Malcolm’s Adam’s apple rolled, and his voice was a little hoarse as he unconsciously coaxed, “Tabitha,
let go of me first.”
