Malcolm turned his head around.

His movement was slow. With furrowed brows, his blue eyes seemed to slowly gather a chunk of ice inside.

“Last night?” he asked.

The pressure in the elevator plummeted abruptly. Saul’s knees went weak and he hurriedly explained, “It was a

piece of information that we received. after midnight, and I'm afraid to disturb Mr. Sinclair...”

Malcolm pressed the space between his eyebrows and softened his tone slightly, “Where did she go?”

“Mrs. Sinclair went to Quilton and stayed overnight at Centennial Hotel about two months ago,” Saul replied.

‘Quilton?’ Malcolm repeated in his heart.

Malcolm felt a slight tug at his heart as if something was about to be revealed.

Sinclair Group has a very important project in Quilton. Therefore, he often traveled there for business trips.

He had a dedicated suite in Centennial Hotel, where he would stay during those trips.

Saul observed Malcolm's expression quietly and waited for his next set of

instructions.

Malcolm’s eyes were dim and unclear. “Did you manage to find out the room number?”

Saul shook his head. “The hotel is adamant about protecting guest privacy, so they refuse to disclose any

information.”

Finally, Malcolm said, “Let’s head back to Xosa in three days. We'll make a stop at Quilton along the way.”

Over two months ago, he slept with Naomi in that hotel. He wondered if it was a coincidence that Tabitha was

also at the hotel at the stime.

Once the matter here was settled, he had to go and personally inquire. about it.

Emmanuel was soon alerted about Malcolm sending someone to investigate Tabitha’s whereabouts.

More than two months ago, Emmanuel had bribed Riley Walsh, the manager of Centennial Hotel, to tamper with

Malcolm’s drinks.

Now that someone suddenly cto dig into old accounts, Riley naturally sought out Emmanuel, fearing to be

exposed.

Emmanuel instructed him, “Create false records of Tabitha’s hotel check-

in details.”

After hanging up the phone, he reached out and touched the pot of Natal lily nearby. His expression was gentle,

but the sharpness in his eyes failed to conceal the underlying coldness in it.

He felt far from pleasant to have an opponent who was too clever and rational.

Just then, Naomi called, “Mr. Sinclair, | heard Malcolm went to Ackleton. He didn’t tellabout it, so | was a little

worried...”

Naomi wanted to call Malcolm to ask about his return, but after the incident with Sylvie, Malcolm had grown

suspicious of her. If she called every the was on a business trip, she was afraid it might exacerbate his

doubts further.

Emmanuel scoffed lightly, “You should worry about what will happen to

you if Malcolm found out the person in the room that night was Tabitha.”

Naomi was surprised. “What do you mean?”

‘Could it be that Malcolm and Tabitha had sinteraction when they went to the hospital yesterday? Did

Tabitha talk about what happened in the hotel?‘ she pondered.

“Malcolm has started to investigate the hotel.” Emmanuel’s tone remained as gentle as ever. “Did you do

something stupid again that raised his suspicion?”

Naomi panicked.

She had indeed encountered sminor problems with Malcolm recently because of Sylvie. ‘If he found out

anything else... she thought inwardly.

“Mr. Sinclair, you have to handle this matter. Otherwise, our plan will fail,” Naomi said.

Before Emmanuel could reply, Naomi continued with a vicious

expression, “Mr. Sinclair, Malcolm toldbefore that when the fetus. reaches four months, he’ll conduct a DNA

test with Tabitha.”

She clenched her teeth, and the cruelty and bloodlust in her eyes almost spilled out. “We must get rid of the

baby in Tabitha’s belly before the DNA test to prevent future trouble!”

Emmanuel plucked a flower petal. He was frowning slightly, but he asked in the softest tone, “Are you teaching

Naomi instantly cto her senses.

At the thought of Emmanuel’s clandestine and unknown methods, she felt a chill down her spine. She hurriedly

replied, “I dare not to do so.”

“All right, I'll take care of the hotel matter.” Emmanuel’s tone finally

returned to normal. “Behave yourself during this period and don’t reveal anything suspicious.”

“Yes...” Naomi replied.

Three days later, Malcolm made a detour to Quilton after visiting Ackleton.

The project in Quilton was well underway, so it was a good tfor him to check on the progress as well as to

inquire about Tabitha at Centennial Hotel.

Malcolm stood before the entrance, his gaze inscrutable. He still remembered the restless and surprised feeling

when he found out that Naomi was next to him that morning.

Later, when Naomi found out that she was pregnant, being a responsible man, even if he didn’t have romantic

feelings for her, he promised to give her an explanation.

Malcolm narrowed his eyes slightly, and a chill emanated from his body.

Out of the blue, a thought popped into his mind, ‘What if the person besidewas Tabitha that night? Would

everything be different then?’

Saul observed Malcolm's expression carefully and reminded him softly, “Mr. Sinclair...”

‘You've been standing at the hotel entrance for over ten minutes now,’ he continued in his heart.

Malcolm snapped out of his reverie, and a slight frown appeared on the corner of his lips.

Nonetheless, he was already there; it was tto uncover the truth.

Malcolm walked into the hotel. The receptionist recognized him immediately and greeted him respectfully, “Mr.

Sinclair, you're here.”

As an exclusive VIP customer, every staff in the hotel had to remember his face.

Malcolm nodded slightly, took the room card, and instructed, “Ask the hotel manager to cover. | have

something to ask him.”

When the receptionist met his cold and blue eyes, she blushed and replied, “Of course, sir.”

Malcolm went back to the room and asked Saul not to follow..

Before long, Riley hurried over.

“Mr. Sinclair, what can | do for you?” Riley asked.

“Was my wife here over two months ago? Which room was she in?” Malcomn asked.
