Emmanuel found Malcolm’s gaze unsettling, exuding an air of superiority regardless of the time or place.

Moreover, there was ample space around them, making it perplexing why Malcolm insisted on walking so close to Emmanuel.

In either case, Malcolm cast an intense gaze at Emmanuel as though harboring a desire to tear him apart.

Emmanuel then shifted his attention to Tabitha. Observing her composed expression, he reluctantly stood up, offering a smile to clear a path for Malcolm.

Malcolm checked the water’s temperature and handed it to Tabitha along with the medicine.

Without hesitation, Tabitha accepted the pill, recognizing the need to care for her well–being.

Emmanuel stood nearby, observing the peaceful interaction between. Tabitha and Malcolm. Suddenly, a wave of sadness overcame him, and he found himself unable to maintain his smile.

He couldn’t even force a smile.

It wasn’t right. He shouldn’t let external influences affect him.

After ensuring Tabitha took her medicine, Malcolm turned a cold gaze toward Emmanuel, stating, “Tabby needs to rest after taking the medicine.”

His expression bore a chill and disdain, almost as if silently conveying, “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Unable to confront Malcolm directly, Emmanuel managed a smile at Tabitha and said, “Then, I’ll leave now and visit you another day.”

Tabitha replied with a natural smile, “See you next time.”
