Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones (Tabitha Jarvis) novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13

Four Seasons Bar was a famous elite nightclub in Xosa.

As soon as Tabitha walked to the door, she heard the ambiguous sounds coming from inside, causing her to furrow her brows slightly.

She couldn’t help wondering, ‘Why arrange to meet in a place like this?’

However, the eagerness to know the progress made her try to ignore the discomfort in her heart and walk in.

A young waiter led her to a cubicle.

Tabitha sat down and waited for nearly three minutes, but Vernon, the private investigator, didn’t show up.

A mocking voice suddenly sounded in her ear. “Huh? Isn’t this Mrs. Sinclair? Why are you so lonely, sitting here alone?”

Tabitha looked up and saw a woman with blonde curls looking at her with hostility.

Tabitha knew her. It was Pauline Grayer, who accompanied Naomi to confess and apologize to her back then.

Not far behind Pauline, there were several people, probably celebrating someone’s birthday. Surprisingly, it was Naomi who sat in the middle of the crowd.

‘How could it be so coincidental?’ Tabitha exclaimed inwardly.

Tabitha calmly suppressed her doubts and was about to leave.

Pauline stopped her and said, “What’s the hurry? It’s my birthday. Why don’t you come and have a drink with me?”

Tabitha’s voice remained emotionless and indifferent. “I’m not familiar with you. Get out of the way.”

“Do you have to be so arrogant just because you’ve become Mrs. Sinclair?”

said Pauline. She pretended to be enthusiastic and pulled Tabitha over.

All the people on the table looked at Tabitha.

These women were heavily made up and dressed in luxurious attire, drawing the attention of others in Four Seasons Bar.

Tabitha was wearing a light white long dress. Her slender figure exuded delicacy and elegance, like a lily in a secluded valley, which stood out amid the surrounding chaos and decadence.

She stood there alone and did nothing to make these people look vulgar.

A trace of jealousy flashed across Pauline’s eyes.

Someone whispered, “Who is this woman? She’s truly beautiful.”

“Isn’t she the one Mr. Sinclair keeps at home? I heard she comes from a very ordinary background and is quite poor, but surprisingly, she carries herself quite well,” another person said.

“If Naomi were to live in such a wealthy family for a few years, she’ll be more elegant than her,” another one added.

Almost instantly, Tabitha figured out what was going on. Her thin back straightened, and she looked directly at Naomi.

“Naomi, if you have something to say, just say it straightforwardly. There’s no need to beat around the bush and deceive me into coming out, letting a bunch of flies buzz around here; it’s very noisy,” she said.

Everyone’s expressions changed, glaring angrily at Tabitha. However, due to her status, no one dared to confront her openly.

Naomi’s eyes twisted with jealousy. She stood up and walked to Tabitha, reaching out to pull her kindly, saying, “Ms. Jarvis, the doctor said that you should be calm when carrying a baby.”

Tabitha didn’t bother to look at her. She said in disgust, “Take your dirty hands away.”

Naomi seemed to be very hurt. She asked, “Ms. Jarvis, before your father died, he said seriously that you shouldn’t live in hatred. Why have you been holding onto me?”

“How dare you tell such a lie?” Tabitha’s face was pale and weak, but her eyes remained sharp as knives. She continued, “Naomi, have you nightmares in these past few years?”

ever had

The intermittent light in the private room fell into Naomi’s eyes, giving a somewhat eerie and sinister feeling.

Seeing that the stage was set, Naomi suddenly knelt in front of Tabitha and began crying sorrowfully.

“Ms. Jarvis, I’m sorry for what happened before. But I really love Malcolm, and I can’t live without him. Please, I beg you to let us be together,” Naomi

said.

Tabitha took a moment to react, then immediately turned sideways and said faintly, “I’m not here to see you pretending to be pitiful. If you have nothing else to say, I’m leaving.”

A light flashed in Naomi’s eyes.

It wasn’t easy for Naomi to trick Tabitha into coming here. She wouldn’t let her go just like that.

She rushed over and directly grabbed the hem of Tabitha’s clothes. “Ms. Jarvis, Malcolm doesn’t love you at all. Forcing yourselves to be together won’t bring happiness,” she said.

Tabitha looked at Naomi coldly, her heart ringing with alarm. She kept a vigilant eye on what might happen.

Pauline came over and pulled Naomi, stating, “Naomi, stand up. This kind of person isn’t worth making you kneel.”

“Pauline, let me be. I must get Ms. Jarvis to agree today,” said Naomi. She was crying so hard that she grabbed the hem of Tabitha’s clothes,

successfully forcing Tabitha a few steps closer to the wine rack.

Pauline was furious. She pointed at Tabitha and scolded, “Tabitha, do you really think you’re the lady of the house? Why make people kneel before. you? The person Mr. Sinclair likes is Naomi. You just have an empty title. Understand your place, okay?”

Tabitha said patiently, “Take your dirty hands away. I don’t have time to watch you act.”

Pauline thought she was righteous and accused Tabitha, “What’s there to be proud of? Is it only because Mr. Alaric Sinclair favors you? Otherwise, would Mr. Malcolm Sinclair fall for someone like you? Naomi is pregnant with Mr. Foster’s child now, so you should get out of the way quickly.”

Tabitha sensed their malicious intention, and an ominous feeling grew stronger. Without mercy, she pulled back her clothes and immediately walked toward the door, not to waste time on them.

Naomi fell to the ground and winked in a direction not far away.

As soon as Tabitha walked to the door, a drunken man suddenly came out and grabbed her wrist, smiling maliciously.

“What a beautiful lady. Have a drink with me,” the man said.
