Finding My Baby Daddy (Pandora and Benjamin) novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9

“Have you lost a baby before?“]

She shook her head. “After the diagnosis and surgery, I was told that the chances were slim that I would get pregnant.”

Dr. Parks sighed before nodding. “I take it that you have been trying for a while, then?“]

“Yes, we tried for years, starting as soon as we got married. But nothing and now-” she said but stopped herself from blurting out her dirty secret.

She felt his hand touch hers and she opened her eyes to see a silver wedding band on his finger. The image of him being so happy in his wedding photo hit her again and only made her cry harder. Again, she asked herself why she had to choose and marry an asshole.

“I can’t promise that everything will be okay, but I will watch over you. I would like to see you every week until you give birth. According to the scan, you look about eight weeks along. That means you have another seven months to go.”

Pandora agreed, feeling a little better that he was willing to watch over her so carefully.]

“Do you work?” he asked, removing his hand from hers.

“Yes,” she replied.]

“Make sure they know and take it easy. I will let you know when you should stop working but let’s say around seven months for now, depending on how big the baby gets.” Pandora nodded as he raised an eyebrow. “Keep your stress levels to the minimum.“]

Pandora let out a snort and when she noticed his curious expression, she shook her head. There was no way she would tell him that her ex–husband was adamant about making her life a living hell. And she had no idea who the baby’s father was or how to find him.[]

Dr. Parks gave her tips on how to overcome morning sickness. He said that she would eat small amounts and often. In the end, he made an appointment for her to see him the following week.

“Have a great week, Pandora,” he said, offering her his hand. She took it again and her body was hit with desire and need. She wanted his hands to be all over her.

“Bye,” she squeaked out.]

‘He is married!‘ she yelled at herself as she walked out hastily.

She let out the breath she was holding when she was finally out of the building. “I should change to another doctor,” she muttered as

she slid into her car.

Her phone beeped just as she pulled on her seatbelt. “Hey, Kiera.“]

“How did it go?” Keira asked impatiently.

Ana chuckled a little, knowing that she wanted to come along to the appointment but couldn’t get time off work.[]

“He wants to see me every week,” Pandora informed. “And I got several copies of photos.” She looked at the scan photos again.]

“Does it feel real now?”

“Yes, more so because I heard Bean’s heartbeat,” she said, making Keira gasp
