Chapter 20

The office quietened down but Malcolm felt even more agitated.

He would have preferred it if Saul had checked wrongly instead.

However, Tabitha’s bloodied image kept recurring in his mind and he could not pretend like nothing happened.

He tugged at his tie and went to meet Naomi.

With Malcolm coming over so early, Naomi felt a little uneasy.

Sylvie had contacted her secretly about how Malcolm’s assistant Saul had already investigated what happened at the Four Seasons Bar that night.

Naomi knew Malcolm would more or less be suspicious of her by now and she was growing anxious. Yet, when she thought of her detailed plan, she began to calm down a little, deciding that the plan was foolproof and all that she had to do now was wait for things to settle down.

As usual, she showed him her usual pleasant smile. “Malcolm, what are you doing here?”

Malcolm stared at her for a long time before he smiled and said, “Nothing is going on in the company, so I just wanted to come over and see you.”

“You’re so thoughtful,” she replied.

Naomi acted as if nothing had happened. She walked to Malcolm and hugged his arm, acting coyly to him and even pouring him some coffee. After that, she kept listening to prenatal music.

Full of love and gentleness, she even discussed with Malcolm what they should name the baby and how they were going to bring it up to be a respectful kid with good manners…

Before noon fell, Naomi had already begun to feel quite tired.
