Rachel had just opened a bag of crisps and lay down on her bed. She was about to get to work on expanding the search area for Abby when she heard the knock. She quickly shoved her tablet under the blankets, so her guest wouldn’t see it and start asking questions.

“I’m coming!” she called.
She swung her legs out of bed and slid her feet into her slippers.
Then she snatched up the bag of crisps and went to open the door.
She’d been smiling beforehand. But as she cracked the door open she recognized the smell of Victor’s cologne. Her smile immediately disappeared.
She wanted to close the door, but Victor wedged his foot between it and the wall.
“So you’d rather eat junk food all day than the nutritious dishes especially prepared for you? Don’t you know how bad that stuff is for you?”
Victor said coldly and snatched the bag of crisps out of Rachel’s hand.

Rachel was irritated, she only just opened the bag and hadn’t even had the chance to eat one yet! The force of Victor’s violent tug scattered more than half the bag of crisps all over the ground.
Rachel reached forward and snatched the bag back.
“Nutritious dishes?
You mean that pig slop I’m expected to eat? I don’t think it would hurt for that stuff to have a little more flavor. It’s disgusting and bland. At least this tastes good.”
“Rachel,” Victor said irritably, “you’re living at the Sue Garden because your baby needs to be properly taken care of. I don’t care if the food is bland, you will. he trailed off as he struggled to control his rising temper. Why did she have to argue about everything?
He gritted his teeth and tried to keep the angry expression off his face.
Suddenly, Rachel sneezed. He hadn’t even gotten the chance to finish his sentence.
He eyed her skeptically, only now noticing how pale she was.
“Are you sick?” he asked with a frown.
Rachel rubbed furiously at the tip of her nose to try and relieve the itch that had started. She had just drawn a breath to speak when she sneezed again. Then she sniffed, only to discover her nose was now blocked. Victor’s cold hand pressed against her forehead. It was perhaps a little colder than it should have been, because she was a little warmer than normal.
Rachel looked up at Victor with unhidden surprise.
Victor dropped his hand to his side, his face blank.
“It’s not good for a pregnant woman to fall ill. I don’t want it to affect my baby.
The last thing I need is a child born with some chronic illness because the mother didn’t take care of herself while she was pregnant.”
Rachel’s blood pressure rose in anger. She clenched her jaw and said through gritted teeth.
“Oh, Mr. Sullivan, you don’t have to worry about that. I promise I won’t bother you with my illness. You can be rest assured that your child will be fine.”
She managed to curb her anger before she said something she would regret later. She looked down at the floor and took a deep breath.
