Im fine.

Victor didnt notice the anxiety in her eyes, but he frowned when he saw how pale her face was.
Afraid that he might get suspicious, Rachel added, Im just a little seasick, thats all. Whats more, I didnt have any appetite and I ate too fast just now. Thats why I had to throw up.
Youre seasick, huh? I seem to recall how you used to go out at sea a lot. Not once have I heard that you became seasick.
Well, um. Rachel pondered for a moment and continued, Its because
Im not in good health lately.
In that case, Ill ask the doctor to examine you, Victor argued.
Seriously, Im fine. I dont need to see a doctor, Rachel insisted.
I just need more rest.
Though Victor was still worried about her, he had to concede since she was the one insisting upon it.
Fine. But if you still feel uncomfortable after resting, Im calling the doctor.

The cold breeze seeped into the room, and Rachel was feeling a little cold.
During the evening, Victor didnt come to have dinner with Rachel, but he asked Ivan to send her some food that she liked to her room.
Right now, Rachel still had no appetite, but she knew that it was important to eat some for the baby.
Thus, she forced herself to eat. The maid watched her eat and smiled with glee.
Miss Bennet, would you like some more? Im sure Mr. Sullivan will be happy to know that youre eating well tonight! said the maid.
Rachel pressed down on her stomach to alleviate her discomfort, and put down her fork.
Im full, she said.
Okay, maam. The maid wasnt stupid. She could see the tension between Rachel and Victor, and she knew that she shouldnt say anything about it.
