Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 110

“What do you mean?” Naomi was taken aback, trying to hide her guilt. Suddenly, she burst into loud sobs. “Malcolm, the doctor said our baby is healthy. I’ve seen on TV that many women who had fallen down the stairs, had turned out fine I thought our child would be okay too. I really regret it…”

“You regret it, so you insist it was Tabitha who harmed you?” Malcolm interrupted.

Malcolm frowned and suppressed the uncontrollable disgust within him.

He had known Naomi since his youth. In a kidnapping ordeal before, when they managed to escape but were pursued by a group of feral dogs, he narrowly escaped a life–threatening situation where his neck almost got bitten.

years.

But not at that moment.

Malcolm forced himself to suppress the anger welling up within him.

When he opened his eyes again, the disgust in his eyes had been replaced by gentleness. He asked tentatively, “Janitor, nurse, did you arrange all of them? How could a girl like you do such things?”
