Mrs.Mavericks

Chapter 9

" Okay, you are exactly five months, today, and I have to say that your baby is looking healthy and good. Do you have any questions, Victoria?"

I shook my head as I looked at my mini baby on the small screen.

" Good. Before we're done here, I have two things I need you to do for me. One: You need to start eating more because you actually lost five pounds. That's not good. Two: I need you to start seeing me every two weeks. So far nothing has been going wrong with this pregnancy but since you've had so many miscarriages in the past, I just want you to be safe."

" Is there still a possibility that my baby could die?"

Anne rubbed her head in frustration but nodded, anyways. " There is always that possibility, Victoria, but I don't want you to focus on that. Anything could happen to a baby at this stage. It may have a defect, health issues and things of that sort that may lead you to get a Cesarian Section. This is not just with you, this is with any girl or woman who is pregnant. But, you are slightly different because you've had so many miscarriages and there was nothing physically wrong with you to cause them. My answer to it has to be stress. You need to be stress free. Right now, if you want your baby to come out alive and well, you need to stop stressing and eat more. On that note, I want you to see me every week until your weight gets back up and you're not looking so pale, even if it takes until your due date."

After going to my doctor's appointment, I stopped at Denny's and got Sebastians favorite meal. It was the second Tuesday of the month which meant that it was a lunch date day. I decided not to drive at all, today, and finally used that number for our personal driver. Not having to drive around all day did make a woman feel good.

Upon pulling up infront of my husband's building, I texted his mother and told her that I was meeting him for our lunch day. She reminded me to get the scoop on the affair but I still didn't know who to talk to and she still didn't tell me.

As I walked through the building, I racked my brain on who to ask about it. As I got to Sebastian's office floor and saw her, I knew that she was the one Momma M was talking about.

" Corrinne!"

Corrine turned, immediately, with a smile on her face. She was a girl that we had went to school with but she had always had such an old soul. Maybe that's why I liked her and honestly, besides Sam, I can say that she's been there for me, too.

" Mrs. Mavericks, how have you been? Oh my gosh, look at your belly! May, I?"

I gave her the okay and she began rubbing my stomach.

" My goodness, you're big. What are you five, six months?"

" Five months, exactly. My stomach is huge but my doctor told me that I had lost five pounds. I think I gained a thousand."

" I think you still look like the most beautiful woman that I had ever had the pleasure of meeting, dating, and marrying."

Hearing his voice made my heart beat fast. It could have been because he still makes my body tingle or it could be because I was holding myself back from slapping the mess out of him and telling his whole company that he was a lying ass cheater. But: I had to keep up appearences.

" And, I still think that you are the most sexiest man I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, dating, and marrying." I gave him a long kiss and handed him his lunch. " It's your favorite from Denny's. Now, you kinda interrupted Corrine's and I's conversation, so,...."

Sebastian put his hands up in mock surrender. " I get it. I'm leaving, I'm leaving but hurry up and bring your ass in here, woman."

I waited until his office door was closed before turning back to Corrine. " So, where is Kylie?"
