Wife number two leaves
Malcolm wasn’t having too much success in his relationships. Christa timed it wrong for her love interest to visit.
Malcolm caught Christa flirting with Dominic Brown when he returned from work. After a slapping he walked away, leaving Christa to continue flirting, which Malcolm junior still didn’t like.
So now Malcolm couldn’t sleep with either of the women in his house.
He put his energies into a new business. He bought the Simoleon Arcade and completely redid the place, making it into a furniture shop.
Even just working there by himself and with his slow cash register skill, he made quite a bit of money on the first day of opening.
Meanwhile, his wife, Jancine, had started seeing good friend, Dan Govan in Veronaville (Dan’s life is told at Growing Sims).
It became pretty obvious to Christa that Jancine was pregnant and that Malcolm wasn’t the father (they hadn’t slept in the same bed since Jancine had caught Malcolm and Christa together). The birth was witnessed by Christa and Malcolm junior. The baby girl was called Jasmine (after one of Dan’s deceased lovers).
Christa took care of it while Jancine slept.
Malcolm seemed oblivious of the advancing pregnancy, busy with his businesses and crime career. It wasn’t until he saw the baby that he realised and gave Jancine her marching orders.
The marriage was over.
Jancine was made to leave but without her baby. Malcolm spitefully took the baby, put it in the cot and promptly ignored it. Naturally she was not allowed to take their son either. He was the heir to the Landgraab riches.
Jancine moved across the road to where the murders of Malcolm’s other children had taken place. She didn’t know that, but she redecorated a particularly nasty room in the hopes of getting her baby back.
She hoped Christa would help out and smuggle her baby to her. Christa didn’t mind – she didn’t want to be left to look after the crying baby all the time. She dropped the kid off outside.
Jancine found her a bit later and was too thankful to have her daughter back to be angry at Christa, who’d done her a favour.
Baby Jasmine’s father, Dan, found out about Jancine’s eviction and invited her over, proposed and had them both move in. The details of Dan and Jancine’s relationship are over at Growing Sims.
