Pit Stops (Book I-F1 Series)

Chapter Forty Two

Its finally race day and it's the day that im dreading because I've lied to Mick for two days now that im still in Monaco when in truth im here in Jeddah. For the past two days ive been in my room, finalizing some reports for the Mille-Harman Europe.

As i went out of the room finally ready, straightening my white skirt which is pretty much shorter than my liking since it sits just right above the middle of my thighs. I unbuttoned the top two buttons of my dress shirt since i look too formal if i didnt.

"Anne!" I heard Collette's voice and i turned to see her walking towards me on the hallway.

I ran to her all smiled because I haven't seen her since Bahrain. I'm wondering if when will Marck and Collette get married.

"You look so radiant Collette!" I complimented her because she is indeed glowing, she looks so happy and very pregnant. "How long are you now?"

"Six months, i cant join you in Australia next GP, i have to stay in France." She said as i can feel a hint of sadness from her words.

"You can stay in Monaco Collette, Francesca is there. She can help you out than staying alone in Deauville." I explained as we both went to the elevator.

"But your brother..." she continued but i cut her off.

"I'll talk to Marck about that, Antonio is there too if you need a driver." I smiled at her as we went down to meet my brother. "Plus we are all born in Monaco."

"Okay okay." She snaked her arm around mine as we walked to where my brother is at. But i stopped on my track when i saw Mick, Jacque and Marck talking with each other. Marck clearly pissed.

I was about to go back to the elevator when I saw Mick turn to us and saw me. I just took a deep breath and smile.

"Baby." He exclaimed as he walked towards us. I felt Collette's hand slip away from my arm and I saw her go to my brother. "You're here." He smiled and i looked at my feet trying to look for words that I can say.

"Surprise." I awkwardly said and smiled. He picked me up like i weigh nothing.

"Don't spin her around, she was rushed to the hospital two days ago." As Mick heard Marck, he immediately put me down and looked at him with his eyes full of worry.

"What happened? I didn't know any of this." Mick stated as he looked at me in disbelief.

"I was just not feeling well Baby. Don't make this a big deal." I pulled his hand and squeeze it tight, trying my best to calm him down. "I didn't tell you about it because i want to surprise you that im here."

I smiled as i wrapped my arm on his arm as I pulled him away from my brothers who are now very on edge. Jacque is maybe furious that he didn't know about my hospitalization until the last minute and Marck furious about Mick's reaction.

"I'm fine, I'm okay now you dont need to worry. I had enough rest these past two days." I explained and i can see Jacque's face softened up.

"Just promise me you won't faint during the race." Jacque said before pulling me into a hug. 

"I won't, i promise. Because of that I'll be staying with you the whole day if you want me to." I stated and Jacque held my hand as he pulled me towards their car. Leaving Marck sighing and shaking his head as he followed us.

"What about Mick?" I asked as I looked back and saw him following behind us.

"He'll come with us." Jacque replied as he pushed me in the car. I gasped and groaned in pain when my forehead hit the doorframe. "What happened?"

I just looked at my brother in complete disbelief as i clutched my forehead.

"You pushed me and i hit my head." I groaned in pain as i sat on the back seat.
