When the carriage arrived back at her Aunt and Uncle's home it stopped in front of the door to let Delaney out. A footman helped her down since Ian had ridden his horse straight back to the stables. She felt anxious as she walked up the steps and into the house. She hadn't been gone that long but she knew it was very unlikely her husband would have slept that late into the day.
She waved hello to her Aunt as she passed the sitting room but didn't stop, wanting to get to her bedroom and find her husband. She wasn't eager to tell him this new information she had gotten from a doctor but she did want to know if he was still angry with her.
Delaney stopped in front of her bedroom door with her hand against the smooth wood. She took a deep breath, steadying herself before entering in case Vincent was inside. It reminded her of when they had first been married and the knowledge made her sad.
