Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 50

Chadwick was stunned. He did not expect Malcolm to bring this topic up. ‘Do I like Tabitha?‘

The answer to that question was yes, of course he did.

The first time Chadwick met Tabitha, he had been filthy, but that did not stop her from bringing him home, taking care of him, and treating him. She never once shunned him for being an orphan and instead made friends with him.

It was impossible to dislike someone as kind and wonderful as Tabitha.

“I see Tabby as my best friend, and I only want her to be happy,” Chadwick said.

‘Is that all there is?‘ Malcolm’s expression froze as he considered.

Chadwick’s answer. Just as he was going to ask Chadwick about Tabitha’s child, his phone rang.

“Sorry, I have to take this,” Malcolm said as he put the call through. “Hello?”

Chadwick could not hear what was being said on the other line, but he saw Malcolm’s expression getting more grim by the second. “Got it. I’ll go back right away,” he heard Malcolm say.

Frowning as he hung up the phone, Malcolm turned to Chadwick and said, “You mentioned Tabitha’s child earlier…”

However, his phone rang again and interrupted him.

At this point, Chadwick had already regained his composure and resumed his normal, placid tone. “You seem busy, Mr. Sinclair. We can talk some other time.”

Having said that, he turned on his heels and made his way back to Tabitha’s hospital room without waiting for Malcolm’s response.

As much as Malcolm wanted to learn the truth about Tabitha’s baby, he had an emergency meeting to attend at the company. The representatives sent to go over the collaboration details were already at the company, so he had no choice but to save his questions for another day and hurry back to tend to official matters.
