Malcolm’s face gradually darkened. He guessed that Tabitha must have learned something from the

housekeeper after she came back.

Otherwise, the flowers wouldn’t have been planted for so long only to be shoveled after he gave them

to Naomi..

“Where is she?” Malcolm asked.

“Mrs. Sinclair has settled for the night,” George responded.

Malcolm turned to find Tabitha.

Seeing Malcolm’s grim expression, George advised softly, “Mr. Sinclair, the flowers have been

shoveled, and there’s nothing that can be done. Mrs. Sinclair is in poor health. Please be more

understanding of her. Don’t be angry with her.”

George was a senior employee for the Sinclair family. He watched Malcolm grow up, and Malcolm

respected him very much.

At this time, the elder’s expression was full of worry that he might hurt Tabitha. Malcolm only felt it was

unbelievable.

Alaric was kind to Tabitha. Malcolm could take it as his grandfather’s gratitude toward the Jarvis family

for saving him.

But at that moment, he had the feeling that the whole Sinclair family was enchanted by Tabitha.

‘What charm does this woman have?’ he pondered.

Malcolm turned and went upstairs. He stood outside Tabitha’s door, looked at the door for a moment,

and knocked several times.

After a while, Tabitha opened the door.

She was wearing a water-blue nightgown, which made her complexion look even more pallid. Her eyes

were a little drowsy, as if she had just

woken up.

“What’s the matter?” she asked.

Tabitha’s voice was low and soft. Perhaps because of her injury, her voice sounded a little hoarse.

It was the first time since their marriage that Malcolm had seen Tabitha in pajamas. He subconsciously

glanced inside the room behind her.

The room was spacious, almost entirely white. There was very little furniture, giving it a somewhat cold

feel with no warm colors that girls. usually prefer.

Suddenly, he had the illusion that Tabitha was not as happy as she seemed to be for marrying into the

Sinclair family.

He said nothing, and Tabitha asked again.

Only then did Malcolm remember his purpose of visit and asked, “Did you ask someone to shovel the

tulips?”

Tabitha’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she stared at him calmly before answering, “Yes.”

Not only the tulips but the name on the tip of her heart had also been removed.

Malcolm didn’t like Tabitha’s expression at this moment, and the anger he had suppressed was quietly

resurfacing.

He said in an unfriendly tone, “I just sent Naomi a bunch of flowers, and you decided to ruin the whole

garden?”

Tabitha interrupted him, “Whatever you think.”

She hadn’t been able to rest well these days, and the wounds on her body. were very painful, almost as

if they were reminding her of the foolishness. of desperately saving him at that time..

Her husband showed no gratitude at all, and she certainly had no intention of asking him to. Yet, he

came back with the scent of that woman’s perfume, frowned, and questioned her. ‘It’s truly annoying,’

she thought.

Fatigue flooded Tabitha, and she lost the desire to explain herself.

She slammed the door shut.

Malcolm’s eyes went cold as he looked at the closed door.

However, Tabitha’s frail and pitiful appearance left him with no outlet for his temper. novelbin

Malcolm went downstairs and asked George to gather all the

housekeepers. He wanted to find out who had informed Tabitha about the flowers.

“Who’s the one that gossiped in Tabitha’s face? Stand up and speak,” he demanded.

Malcolm was dressed in a sharp suit, displaying no emotional expression, yet everyone sensed the

tension surrounding him.

Everyone exchanged glances and expressed their ignorance about the

matter.

When George heard Malcolm talking about sending flowers, he seemed to have guessed something.

He wanted to say something but stopped upon second thought.

Malcolm quickly noticed George’s expression and dismissed the others, leaving only George.

“George, did you tell Tabitha that I sent Naomi flowers?” Malcolm asked.

George sighed slightly and asked, “Mr. Sinclair, so you gave the flowers to Ms. Boyle?”

Malcolm frowned, feeling that something was amiss. “Please make it clear.”

George sighed. “No wonder. Mrs. Sinclair used to cherish that garden, but today, she razed it without

hesitation. Mr. Sinclair, you have acted rashly this time.”

Malcolm was always respectful of George and felt uncomfortable when he heard this. “Are you saying

that it’s my fault?”

Malcolm froze slightly. “Did Tabitha plant all those tulips?”

Tabitha misunderstood Naomi so much, and he even gave Naomi the flowers as a gift. No wonder

Tabitha reacted that way just now…

All of a sudden, Malcolm’s anger quelled.

Malcolm pursed his lips and refused to admit that he was feeling guilty.

Malcolm, however, was puzzled.

‘How would Tabitha have known I had sent Naomi flowers if it wasn’t for gossip?’ he mused.
