Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 27

Tabitha’s striking beauty, with her impeccably delicate face and the gorgeous dark blue dress, immediately attracted the attention of onlookers as soon as she entered the venue.

Still on the path to recovery from a significant illness, her complexion bore a trace of frailty as she moved forward slowly, one step at a time. Her graceful and deliberate steps resembled gliding on the surface of a deep. blue sea, captivating the attention of everyone as her gown swayed. gracefully.

Even the previously attentive scions, who had been trying to win Naomi’s favor, were now captivated by Tabitha and completely disregarded the former.

The nearby wealthy ladies and socialites were even more amazed, whispering among themselves, “Who is this young lady? Why have we never seen her before?”

“Didn’t you see that Mr. Sinclair was the one who escorted her into the venue? I heard he got married two years ago, so that must be Mrs. Sinclair,” said one of the socialites.

Another lady added, “Mrs. Sinclair is stunning, isn’t she? She and Mr. Sinclair make quite a well–matched couple…”

When Naomi heard the whispers, her expression contorted slightly with resentment as she shot a hateful glance at Tabitha.

Just then, Malcolm spotted Naomi and looked in her direction.

Naomi quickly replaced her resentful gaze with a look of sorrow, lightly biting her lower lip, and appeared utterly aggrieved.

Malcolm felt a pang of guilt and tried comforting her with his gaze.
