Chereads / Empress of my Heart: A new life / Chapter 9 - Pregnant.

Chapter 9 - Pregnant.

The woman has black straight her with red at the edges. She has delicate eyebrows, small eyes, big nose and full plump lips. She was wearing a long summer dress just to prove that she's pregnant.

When her eyes landed on Nikki, she was a little shocked before she smiled and placed her hand on her little baby bump. She casually looked at the doctor like she didn't notice Nikki.

"Dr. Alex, I see you are busy but you need to attend to me personally" She paused lightly and glanced at Nikki before she continued "After all you know my condition."

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Legion but you already have nurses attending to you" The doctor, Alex stood up to show her a little respect. "So my help is not needed until something major happens."

Victoria was led away embarrassed by the nurses while Nikki just sat there stunned with her Jimmy still in a corner sucking his lollipop.

"I'm sorry for that Mrs. Silver" Dr. Alex looked at her apologetically. When he noticed Nikki's pale face. "Are you alright?"

"No problem, I'm fine" Nikki quickly forced a smile. "Let's continue with the interview"

"Okay" Dr. Alex didn't persist in asking and went straight to the point.

"So you'll resume tomorrow because we are currently short on personnel." Dr. Alex shook Nikki's hands write after the interview. "You'll start as my assistant"

Dr. Alex was actually a young man in his early 30's, he was handsome, cold and neat. He was the type to make a lady's heart jump and her face red. This was evident in the nurses that they passed by while he escorted her out.

As soon as he turned back to walk into the hospital, Nikki eased a sigh of relief. She could feel the jealous gazes thrown at her by the nurses. Now, she just needed to get home fast, take a shower and think of how to deal with Victoria.

"Isn't this Mrs. Silver?" Speak of the devil. "You must be enjoying yourself after stealing my boyfriend"

"Please, don't give me that shit" Nikki couldn't help but roll her eyes. "We both know the truth"

"How about we have lunch together? To catch up" Victoria glanced at Jimmy before saying this.

"No, thank you" Nikki's grip on Jimmy tightened. "I have nothing to say to you"

"I'll keep following you around if you don't agree" Victoria looked at Jimmy again. "You don't want your son to know all what you have done, do you?"

Nikki looked at Victoria as her jaw clenched. Fine then, she also hadn't had lunch so it doesn't matter to her.

"Alright" Nikki smiled at her. To be honest, Nikki had no idea how to feel about her sister, after all this sister had always protected her since she was young. This sister helped her take the hit from their mother when their mother was traumatized, this sister didn't mind going to school with bruises on her face after their mom hit her. This sister will save on her lunch money just to buy her whatever she wants. This sister always dote on her all the time, what went wrong exactly?

"So this must be James child" Victoria said breaking the awkward silence as they sat in a restaurant.

"Yes, he is" Nikki's answer was curt. She knew this answer was going to hurt Victoria after all, Victoria truly loved James and was obsessed with him but she still had no idea why Victoria did what she did.

"He reminds me of the sweet moment between me and James" Victoria's eyes flashed before she said while smiling dramatically.

The waiter came to take their orders interrupting Vicky's moment.

"I'll have a cup of coffee with eggs and bacon" Nikki said. "Give the child eggs and bacon with fruit juice"

"I want sweet potatoes and legumes with yogurt" Vicky was trying her best to speak like a rich lady. The waiter nodded and left. "I'll have loved to drink coffee too but you know I'm pregnant.. for John" Vicky was petting her slightly big belly with a smug smile while staring at Nikki intently.
