Chapter 119

Malcolm opened his mouth but refrained from saying anything further. At this moment, Tabitha was completely engrossed in tending to Imogen, a lying little girl, and not receptive to his explanation.

Now, he could fully grasp Tabitha’s predicament back then. He had been framed for breaking the fish tank, but both Tabitha and their children suffered insults from him.
