Chapter 33
Hearing George praising Tabitha, Malcolm’s handsome face darkened a little and his voice was slightly
cold. “Tabitha has changed.”
Previously, Tabitha was like a delicate lily of the valley. However, she was full of barbed thorns now,
which could stab and injure him if he got closer.
George disagreed. “Why did Ms. Jarvis only change after Ms. Boyle appeared? You have to think about
it, Mr. Sinclair.”
Malcolm fell silent at the thought of Naomi’s schemes.
Meanwhile, George was very pleased to know that Malcolm had listened to his words.
“Ms. Jarvis really loves you, Mr. Sinclair. You should be nice to her in the future,” he said.
Malcolm thought of Tabitha’s child. With a mocking and angry look, het said, “Do you think she’s
sincere toward me?” A cold glint flashed across hist
evas
eyes.
George sighed. “Why do you think Ms. Jarvis isn’t sincere when she’s with you, Mr. Sinclair? She was
badly hurt at the nightclub for you.”
His words were sufficient to stop Malcolm from uttering more sarcastic remarks.
“When Ms. Jarvis moved into the house after you were married, there was a vase of tulips in the living
room. As she has a pollen allergy, she wanted to have the fresh flowers removed. But when she found
out that you ordered them, she mistakenly thought you liked tulips. After that, she started studying how
to grow tulips.”
‘So she planted all those tulips in the garden for me?‘ Malcolm wondered.

Then, Malcolm stared blankly out of the window at the bare garden without saying a word. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“Ms. Jarvis always woke up earlier than you and personally prepared your favorite breakfast. Moreover,
she waited for you at night, too. Sometimes, she didn’t go to bed because you came back late. She
kept saying that you worked hard and wanted you to feel a heartwarming atmosphere when you came
home…”
Malcolm’s parents died early. Moreover, Alaric was always harsh to him and rarely treated him warmly.
George continued to talk and told Malcolm all the insignificant trivial
matters.
Nevertheless, on closer inspection, everything that happened was filled with Tabitha’s discreet concern
and thoughtfulness.
Malcolm listened quietly and could not help feeling touched.
‘If what George said was right and Tabitha did so much discreetly for me, why would she cheat?‘ he
wondered.
Meanwhile, George added, “In fact, Ms. Jarvis has long noticed that you might have a lover outside…
She must be upset, but she didn’t say anything and still kept the house in order and didn’t want to
trouble you.”
Hearing this, Malcolm straightened up slightly. A very ridiculous ideal flashed through his mind.
‘Is it because Tabitha was afraid of divorce that she used an
unconventional plan? Did she want to deceive me by getting pregnant so that she could still be my
wife?‘ he wondered again.
Just then, Tabitha finally returned home.
George greeted her kindly and Tabitha responded with a smile.

Nevertheless, once she saw Malcolm in the living room, her expression. turned slightly cold and she
wanted to walk past him to go upstairs.
Malcolm could clearly see that Tabitha’s gaze was initially gentle. However, when she saw him, her
expression turned cold.
“Tabitha,” he said.
He stopped her because he wanted to ask a lot of questions.
Only then did he realize that he did not seem to understand Tabitha.
Tabitha stood still. There was an obvious weariness to her tanned face, but her eyes were unusually
cold.
“What’s the matter?” she questioned.
After waiting for a long time, she did not hear a reply from Malcolm. She looked up and met his
darkened gaze that was filled with inexplicable. emotions.
‘Did Naomi say something to him? Does he want to quarrel with me. again?‘ she wondered.
She was about to speak when Malcolm silently took out a small box.
“Tabitha, I’m sorry.” His gaze was complicated, but his tone was calm.
“About the ring and the tulips… I’m sorry that I misunderstood you.”
She was anticipating accusations and quarrels, but they did not happen. Tabitha did not expect
Malcolm to apologize to her.
Thus, she stared blankly at the small box. She knew that Lone Star’s Tear was placed inside.
‘Didn’t he give this bracelet to Naomi?‘ she wondered.
For a moment, Tabitha’s cold heart skipped a beat.

What is Malcolm doing? Is he trying to make up for everything after hurting me over and over again?‘
she mused to herself.
Her chest rose and fell slightly. Moreover, she felt like crying She did not take the bracelet, but she
suddenly turned around and fled upstairs as if she were running away.
Malcolm watched her disappear and suddenly came to his senses.
What’s the matter with me? Tabitha had just pushed me into the pool. How could I calmly apologize to
her?‘ he wondered.
The next morning, when Tabitha went downstairs, Malcolm was no longer at home.
Tabitha sat down in her usual spot at the dining table. Her attention was caught by a beautiful box in
front of her.
‘It’s the box for Lone Star’s Tear… she thought.
After that, she paused and sat silently, only to find an extra vase at the edge of the table with a bouquet
inside..
They were tulips.
The flowers on top looked elegant, and the colors of the stalks and the petals were vibrant. One could
tell at a glance that the person who arranged the flowers was very talented.
“This is strange. The fresh flowers are placed so close to me. But I don’t have any bad reactions toward
them,’ she thought.
Seeing that Tabitha seemed slightly lost in thought, George came forward just in time and said, “Mr.
Sinclair knows that you’re allergic to flowers, Ms. Jarvis. So he specially bought an artificial bouquet at
a high price. It’s Mr. Leveque’s masterpiece. It won’t affect your health, and it’s nice to look
at.”

‘So they are fake flowers,‘ she mused to herself.
Her gaze moved away from the tulips and fell on the small box. She had a complex emotion in her
gaze.
‘What is Malcolm up to?‘ she wondered.
