Chapter 69
“No, thanks” Naomi almost immediately refused. “Malcolm, don’t you believe me?”
Malcolm’s tone was a little gentle as he said. “Don’t you want to clear your name? After the test result comes out. I’ll show it to Grandpa. As long as the baby has the Sinclair family blood, he or she will be acknowledged.”
Naomi gripped the wheelchair’s armrest tightly with her fingers and whispered. “Malcolm, I fell, and my knee hurts so much. Also, I caught a cold”
“There’s no rush.” Malcolm examined Naomi’s expression and said in a low voice. “The pregnancy hasn’t reached four months. We need to wait.”
Naomi breathed a sigh of relief secretly. After going through the fetal heart rate monitoring, she secretly sent Emmanuel a message.
Emmanuel was talking to Tabitha at the Sinclair manor and did not read the message.
“I heard from Granddad that you and Malcolm quarreled. Is it because of what I said yesterday?” Emmanuel asked.
Tabitha said nonchalantly. “It wasn’t a quarrel. It’s none of your business.”
Emmanuel sighed softly and comforted her. “When men have too many social engagements outside, it is inevitable that they will get close to other women. However, no matter how attractive those women may seem, they are just a passing fancy. You are a good woman. I’m sure Malcolm will value you one day.”
Tabitha forced a smile and didn’t say anything.
Seeing her indifferent expression, Emmanuel suddenly felt a little irritated.

Tabitha appeared to be gentle and friendly to everyone, but, in reality, she was the type of person who couldn’t easily open her heart. Like the icicles. in winter, she seemed crystal clear and pleasing to the eye. However, in reality, she was cold and sharp. One would feel the chill if they got closer to her.
Despite him trying for so long, Tabitha didn’t even want to share her innermost thoughts with him.
“This woman is really difficult to deal with,’ he thought.
Emmanuel had no patience to take things slow and decided to do something to make Tabitha completely let go of her guard against him.
In the hospital, Naomi grew increasingly restless due to amniocentesis. She became more agitated after not receiving any response from Emmanuel despite sending him messages a long time ago. She felt even more anxious and on multiple occasions, wanted to call him to inquire about the situation.
But Emmanuel had warned her not to make any more phone calls, and she dared not provoke him.
It was not until five o’clock in the evening that Emmanuel called her.
“Naomi, tell me all the bad things you’ve done to Tabitha before,” he asked.
Naomi suddenly had a bad feeling. She asked, “Mr. Sinclair, why are you asking about these things?”
‘Besides, didn’t Emmanuel look into it last time?‘ she wondered.
“I don’t want anything that can be found on the surface.” Emmanuel’s voice was extremely gentle. “I want something more discreet, something even Malcolm can’t find out.”
Tabitha’s rejection of Naomi was so strong that Malcolm must have

However, the so–called surface evidence was inconsequential.
For instance, Naomi’s involvement with several rich kids could also be interpreted as many people pursuing her simultaneously, competing for her attention. As for whether the phone was genuinely stolen and smashed, Naomi could fabricate it easily with the testimony of the gangster Cornelius.
Naomi’s heart suddenly sank as she asked, “Mr. Sinclair, what do you want to do?”
“Don’t be nervous. I’m still counting on you to stall Malcolm. I won’t cause you harm.” Emmanuel comforted Naomi in a gentle voice, “But I have little patience. You have to say it quickly.”
Naomi was so terrified of his tone that she gritted her teeth and said, “When I was with Giuseppe, I discovered a secret of him and captured a video. He asked me to give him the video, and I gave it to him, but he still tried to kill me. Fortunately, I was careful and held back a trick or two…”
Emmanuel smiled and responded, “I see. I was wondering how a woman like you could have several people pursuing you simultaneously. It’s not like those rich kids haven’t encountered women before in their lives.”
Naomi’s face darkened.
She knew that Emmanuel, who mocked her at every c
he got, must
have looked down upon her with great contempt in his heart.”
But she had to rely on Emmanuel’s help to get what she wanted and didn’t dare to lose her temper.
Emmanuel laughed enough and asked, “What’s the video? Show me.”
“No. Mr. Sinclair, I’m sorry. My life depends on it, and I can’t give it to

you.” Naomi said cautiously.
If it weren’t for the video, Giuseppe wouldn’t have shown up and gotten her off the conviction.
Emmanuel asked. “Then can you at least tell me what the rich kid has
done?”
“Giuseppe had a girlfriend who was pregnant and wanted to use the baby to get married. Giuseppe asked someone to forcibly give her an abortion, but she died in the process. I captured the video of Giuseppe and his men forcing the woman into the delivery room…” Naomi said.
Giuseppe had a girlfriend who was pregnant and died from severe bleeding due to a miscarriage. Many people in Heaventown knew about it, but they were unaware that Giuseppe’s sordid deeds were the cause of her death.
Emmanuel nodded. “That’s a good story,” he responded.
After saying that, he was about to hang up the phone. Naomi asked quickly, “Mr. Sinclair, I sent you a message just now. How can you help me?”
“They’re just two ordinary nurses. I’ll send someone to investigate it,” Emmanuel said. “You’ve sacrificed a lot this time. You can rest well in the hospital and fawn at Malcolm from time to time.”
“Yes, I understand,” Naomi replied.
