Ch. 401..405: The President's Pregnant, Ex-Wife Chapter 401-405

Chapter 401: Chapter 401 – The Impossible Choice

"What are you talking about?" Robin was nervous and began to sweat. Sabrina had a healthy pregnancy throughout her nine months, so Robin was not expecting this. He was not prepared for it.

"Let’s talk in my office," the doctor said, but Robin shook his head in disagreement. If it was bad news, he didn’t think he would have the strength to recount everything to them after he returned.

Everybody here was family or a close pal, so he insisted, "Everybody here is family. Let them hear it."

The doctor took a deep breath and said with a sad countenance, "We can’t save both the mother and the twins."

Robin’s heart ached, and though he understood the meaning of the doctor’s words, he refused to accept it.

"What do you mean?" he growled, his chest raising up and down. The doctor took a deep breath and explained it once again to the anxious-looking family.

"If we save your wife, the twins would die, and if we save the twins, your wife would die." The color drained from Robin’s face, and grandma was hyperventilating.

Laura rushed to her side to comfort her as the doctor asked, "Should we save the twins?"

Nobody wanted to be in Robin’s shoes at the moment. How could a man choose between his wife and his children? They were both very dear to him.

At this time, no one could offer advice, and they all felt that in a case like this, there would be nothing like a wrong choice.

By the time Robin opened his mouth to speak, it was as if the doctor remembered something and added, "I also forgot to tell you that your wife might not be able to conceive ever again."

The atmosphere tensed up, and every gaze focused on Robin. This was his decision to make, and it would be good for him to make it alone.

Cobby was torn. He didn’t want to lose Sabrina and also didn’t want to lose his grandchildren. Devin already had tears in his eyes, feeling that he might not see his sister ever again.

Robin had always been desperate for children, and being put in a situation like this, Devin already knew Robin’s choice.

Lizzy’s eyes were already red, and Daniel could not look at Robin since he was unable to offer any kind of comfort to his best friend.

Jacob was so pained, as if he were directly feeling what his fraternal twin brother was feeling.

The news overwhelmed Ethel, and she began coughing, but luckily, Jacob brought her inhaler.

Everyone could already guess Robin’s choice but were surprised that it wasn’t what they thought it would be.

"Save my wife," Robin muttered. Because of the heaviness of the silence, his words were clear, and everybody was shocked.

If it were just one child, it would have been understood, but these were two lives, and yet, he was choosing his wife over both of his children.

The doctor was equally surprised and felt like Robin did not understand the seriousness of the situation.

"Are you sure? You would never have a child to call your own. You can always marry again, you know?"

Robin found the doctor’s words somehow irritating. If it were the former Robin, he would have chosen the twins, but now, he had learned so many things and all he wanted now was to enjoy his life with his wife, with or without children.

Glaring at the doctor, Robin yelled, "Shut up! Save my wife."

"Yes, sir!" The doctor said and left. Robin almost gave her a heart attack just by the way he glared at her.

After she left, Robin was in tears as everyone gathered around to comfort him. Only Matilda was distant.

"Hey, you can always adopt. There are kids out there who need love too," Jacob patted him on the back and said, but Robin shook his head.

They all thought he was grieving the loss of the children, but they misunderstood.

"I don’t care about kids. I just want my wife to be fine. I don’t care if we never have kids again, but I won’t be able to live without her."

Robin was afraid of things going wrong. He had gotten so used to having Sabrina in his life that he didn’t know how he would cope if anything happened to her.

His stance was shocking to everyone present, and Jacob even had to agree that his twin brother indeed loved his wife more than anybody or anything in the world.

Matilda had recorded Robin’s words and sent them to the doctor. A few minutes later, the doctor opened the door, and Robin rose to his feet.

"How is my wife? Where is she?" He was just eager to know that Sabrina was okay. The doctor forced a smile and replied,

"She wants to see you."

Robin sighed with relief. The doctor allowed him into the theater, and Sabrina smiled weakly, "I’m sorry, but I want you to have kids," she stated.

Her stomach was almost the same, and Robin was upset that the doctors were wasting time. However, his gaze softened, and his anger dissipated at the sight of his wife.

Quickly, he sat beside her and kissed her briefly on the lips, "No. I want you, my love. Please don’t do anything stupid."

Sabrina shook her head, ready to sacrifice her life for the twins. When the doctor informed her about Robin’s decision, she couldn’t accept it.

"Robin, I will never be able to conceive again. This is your only chance to be a father."

"No Sabrina, to hell with being a father. I only want to be a good husband to you. Children don’t matter to me anymore," a tear dropped down Robin’s cheeks as he spoke.

He felt that Sabrina was under partial anesthesia, as she had not moved her legs.

"But that was the cause of our problem before," Sabrina reminded him, but Robin shook his head with remorse and kissed the back of her hand.

"I am not that same person. I changed and so has my priorities," he said honestly.

Sabrina was amazed. This man was indeed different from the old Robin she knew and was sure that this change was permanent.

"Okay. I love you," she smiled and said, Robin kissed her again.

"I love you so much and I will be waiting for you."

Robin went back to the waiting area and minutes passed before the door to the theatre opened and the doctor announced, "Congratulations! Your wife gave you twins, a boy and a girl."

Robin was enraged as he grabbed the doctor’s collar. "What are you saying? Where is my wife? If she’s dead, then I will kill you. I told you to save my wife."

Chapter 402: Chapter 402 – He passed

A few hours earlier

"Matilda, I think I’m in labor, you have to..." Sabrina did not finish her statement but Matilda knew what to do. After hanging up the phone, she woke up Devin from sleep.

"Devin, I have to go to the hospital. Sabrina is in labor."

Devin did not hesitate as they dressed up and left the penthouse. Arriving at the hospital, the timing was perfect as Sabrina had not arrived.

"Devin, I want to use the ladies’ room. Please wait here," Matilda said. Devin nodded his head since the washrooms were not far from the waiting area.

"Be careful," Devin said and waited. As Matilda headed to the ladies’ room, she branched to the doctor’s office.

Since she had been there for her antenatal checks and was attended to by the same doctor, things were easy.

"Good morning, Doctor Britany." The doctor lifted her head from what she was doing and smiled at Matilda.

"Tilly, how are you?"

Matilda hastened from the door where she stood and sat in front of the doctor. "It’s about what I discussed with you the last time. Sabrina is on her way."

The doctor pursed her lips. "I thought you’d change your mind."

Matilda shook her head. "She hasn’t so neither can I."

"I will try my best," the doctor forced a smile. She couldn’t confirm it with Sabrina because every time she came for her checks, Robin was always there. However, Matilda was not liking the response and said seriously,

"Don’t try your best. Just do it, please. I will pay you any amount."

The doctor smiled and shook her head. She was not like those fraud doctors. The only reason why she agreed to do it was because of the notion behind it.

If this would clear all of Sabrina’s insecurities, then why not? She also knew it could turn out as a disaster if things did not go as planned.

"You don’t have to pay me anything. This is just a test of love."

"Thank you," Matilda smiled and said.

As soon as she stepped out of the doctor’s office, she bumped into Devin, as she held her chest to keep calm.

"Devin, what are you doing here?"

Devin was worried because he had gone to the men’s restroom, which was close to the women’s, but had not seen Matilda after he was done.

He was tracking her phone with the tracking device installed on it and was about to open the door when Matilda opened it from inside.

"Ah, Tilda, I was worried. Where did you go?" Devin asked worriedly.

Matilda sighed with relief upon knowing that he had not heard her conversation with the doctor.

"Relax, I was just saying hi to Doctor Britany. Has Sabrina arrived?" Matilda quickly diverted the topic. Devin shook his head, "No."

They went back to the waiting area and it was not long before Sabrina arrived. At the delivery room, the doctor winked at Sabrina and said, "Push Sabrina, you can do this."

Sabrina got the hint that everything was ready for her but they needed to get Robin out of the delivery room so she replied through painful contractions, "I’m tired. I can’t."

She was indeed tired and the pain was unbearable but also knew that she still had a little time as they had already planned ahead.

"Then we would have to take you to the theatre," the doctor said but this time, Sabrina did not refuse so the doctor gave Robin some documents to sign.

After Sabrina was sent to the theatre, the doctor worriedly said, "we can still go by CS. I can see that you are tired."

Sabrina balled her hand into a fist, as if to numb the pain, though it wasn’t working. "I can push. At least let me try."

After she watched some videos of women delivering their babies through vaginal birth online, she was amazed by their strength and was determined to give it a shot.

Since there were no complications as they had made Robin believe, why not take her chances?

She gathered her courage and pushed. "You are doing well. I can feel the head," the doctor said.

Sabrina was exhausted as one of the nurses encouraged her, "You can do it. I have done it three times. My first were also twins."

That must have worked as Sabrina was missing Robin by her side. Somehow, his presence gave her strength, which had run out with his absence.

Whereas she wanted this and could not complain. The next three pushes were the strongest she gave and through her painful groans, the first baby was out.

"You should be proud. It’s a boy. Congratulations!" The doctor handed him to one of the nurses, who began cleaning him as the doctor focused on the second baby.

Sabrina was very excited, as she and Robin had decided not to check the sex of the babies until they were born, to keep the suspense alive.

Another painful contraction hit Sabrina after she thought she had found relief from the first one. However, this one was even more intense. With three strong pushes, the second baby was born.

"It’s a girl. You are so brave, congratulations," the doctor said as the babies’ cries filled the room. Luckily, it was soundproofed and nobody could hear them.

After the remains of the umbilical cord were removed and Sabrina was cleaned up, her eyes were almost closing from exhaustion as the doctor remarked,

"You’ve done well. Your husband should have seen this. He would have been very proud of you."

Sabrina was tired but forced a smile. They had to stick to the plan or too much delay would make Robin anxious and he might just come in.

"Please stick to the plan. If he passes this test, nothing will ever break us apart and I would be a fool for him again."

The doctor was a little nervous. She could see the love shining brightly in Robin’s eyes and didn’t feel that Sabrina needed this test to prove it.

However, she had already agreed to help and there was nothing she could do about it.

"I hope that this doesn’t destroy your marriage, but we have to make your stomach a little bigger," the doctor observed and said.

Sabrina nodded as the doctor added a fake bump to make her stomach as big as before. She left and returned after a few minutes.

"He passed. He asked us to save you."

Chapter 403: Chapter 403 - Robert and Savannah

Chapter 403 - Robert and Savannah

Sabrina was in disbelief as the doctor’s phone beeped. "Matilda sent this," she said.

Sabrina watched the video where Robin was in tears and declared, "I don’t care about kids. I just want my wife to be fine. I don’t care if we never have kids again but I won’t be able to live without her."

Her heart warmed greatly and joyful tears gathered in her eyes, but she couldn’t help but speak to him and said, "I want to see him."

The doctor arranged her well to make it look like she was yet to undergo the CS, and after she spoke with Robin and was certain, she smiled.

"I knew that he would change, but I never thought it would be through three years of painful marriage. I have fallen in love with him again and I will make sure to make him happy every day. I think it’s time to give him the good news."

The doctor laughed and went out to meet Robin again, "Congratulations! Your wife gave you twins, a boy and a girl."

Robin was enraged as he grabbed the doctor’s collar. "What are you saying? Where is my wife? If she’s dead, then I will kill you. I told you to save my wife."

For as long as he knew, he was given the option to choose between his wife and kids. He chose his wife, but for the doctor to announce that the kids were alive could only mean one thing, right?

The doctor forced a smile and did not try to break free. She couldn’t anyway, as she was a woman and though Robin was treating her like a man, it was fine.

After all, Robin had just been subjected to the emotional torture of making it seem as if he was going to lose the people he loved most.

Daniel saw the doctor was struggling to speak and went to break Robin away from her. She held Robin’s hand, but he shoved it away and sank to the floor in misery.

All eyes were red and Daniel lifted Robin from the floor. Before he spoke a word, the doctor said again,

"It was your wife’s wish to rather give you children. The girl looks exactly like her. You should come and see."

"Sabrina." Robin was blinded with tears as he was crying like a baby. Jacob hugged him to comfort him, but Matilda and the doctor were feeling miserable to see him like that.

The doctor forced a smile and said again, "Mr. Jewel, you misunderstood. Please don’t keep your wife waiting. She’s tired and needs to sleep."

Robin slowly processed the doctor’s words. He wasn’t the only one surprised, but everyone gathered there was, except Matilda.

"Wait, you mean that both Sabrina and the children are okay?" Cecilia asked the question.

"Exactly, Ma’am. Sabrina will explain the rest," the doctor assured them.

As her words began to sink into Robin’s mind, he jumped from the floor and rushed inside the ward to see the smiling Sabrina. She looked weak and tired, but her smile was so bright that Robin kissed her passionately.

Tears streamed down his cheeks when he broke away from the kiss. He had never felt so scared in his life, not even when he was desperate for a donor.

"What happened?" he finally asked.

"Please sit down," Sabrina smiled apologetically and tapped the side of the bed. Robin obeyed as she explained everything to him.

"I’m sorry, but I still feared that after the kids are born, you would change. I wanted to make sure that it wasn’t so."

Robin wasn’t sad, but he couldn’t stop the joyful tears. He also couldn’t be upset with her, only blaming himself for wounding her so badly in the past. It was the reason why she had to resort to this means to test his love for her.

"Oh, my queen, how could you do this? I could have died of a heart attack," Robin hugged Sabrina and sobbed.

She felt guilty to have put him through all that. "I’m very sorry, but it will never happen again."

Robin stared her in the eyes and asked, "So you won’t doubt me again?"

Sabrina shook her head, "never."

"Then it was worth it. I always told you that your trust means more to me than anything. I will spend each day of our marital journey cherishing it."

"Or, you could start making arrangements for our wedding, but for now, you should meet our babies. The boy looks just like you," Sabrina said. Robin began looking eagerly around for the babies.

A moment ago, he felt like he had lost everything, but suddenly, he had everything and his joy knew no bounds. Robin had tears in his eyes and asked, "Where are they?"

The doctor brought the two swaddled babies, giving one to Robin and the other to Sabrina. "You can begin nursing them. I will send a specialist to help you with it," she said, smiling and glad that everything went according to plan.

Robin could not take his eyes off his babies. It was a priceless feeling, the tiny creature sleeping soundly in his arms.

She had blonde hair and was as beautiful as Sabrina. He checked the boy too and realized it was true.

The boy looked exactly like him with jet black hair and gray eyes. "They are so precious. What do we call them?" Robin’s eyes still watered as he asked, caressing the cheek of the babies.

Sabrina thought for a while and revealed, "Robert and Savannah."

"I love the sound of it," Robin said as a knock sounded on the door and Jacob’s head peeked through.

"We are waiting..."

Robin and Sabrina laughed as Sabrina said, "you all should come in but I’m so exhausted, I want to sleep."

"You silly girl, how could you give us all a heart attack?" Grandma chastised Sabrina as soon as she saw her on the bed and Sabrina laughed,

"I’m sorry grandma."

"Are you not hungry? You had twins and should eat something." By the time she finished speaking, the chef had arrived with a food warmer.

Sabrina was just so excited, responding to so many congratulatory messages. By the time she ate two spoons of the food the chef brought, she was already asleep.

Robin kissed her on the forehead, before kissing the twins on the cheek as he tucked them in very well. "Thank you all for coming, but you all need to go and rest now."

A few hours later, Sabrina woke up from her sleep in a different room and panicked, instantly looking around for her babies.

Chapter 404: Chapter 404 - They look just like the two of you

A few hours later, Sabrina woke up in a different room and immediately panicked, looking around for her babies.

"Ro..."

"My queen, are you alright?" Robin asked from the left side of the bed where the baby cot was. Sabrina sighed with relief.

"I’m sorry. I was afraid because of you and Jacob’s story but where am I? The flowers are beautiful," Sabrina smiled admiringly at the nicely decorated VIP ward Robin had her moved to while she was sleeping.

He had bought some time for it to be quickly decorated with the things Sabrina liked best to make it homely and comfortable for her.

"I’m glad you like them and I’m just wondering why you weren’t scared when you gave birth without my being there but rather afraid now that I am here and have seen both babies," Robin asked teasingly. Sabrina’s cheeks reddened with embarrassment.

She was just happy that Robin was casual about it, not taking it to heart.

"You are right. There are a lot of people here, watching over us." She paused, caressed the cheek of the sleeping babies and panicked. "Why are they still sleeping? They haven’t nursed."

Robin chuckled, understanding his wife’s anxiety as a new mother. "Don’t worry, the nurse fed them because I told them not to disturb your sleep. You can begin nursing when they wake up again."

There were bags under Robin’s eyes and Sabrina could tell that he hadn’t slept. It warmed her heart to know that he had been watching out for her and their babies.

"Thank you very much," she said with gratitude. Robin shook his head, rejecting her apology.

"I won’t accept it. They are my children too and you are my wife. Aside from the fact that I do it out of love, it’s also my responsibility."

Sabrina laughed as Robin added, "let me inform grandma that you are awake. She went home to supervise the chef on what to prepare for you."

Sabrina’s eyes lit up at the mention of grandma, wishing that the woman would not return to the old villa.

Sabrina was already used to her presence. However, she was also uneasy, seeing that her stomach looked as if she was five months pregnant and accused Robin.

"See? You haven’t spoken about the wedding ever since I recovered. Isn’t it because my stomach is big and I’m no longer attractive? I shouldn’t have signed those papers." A tear dropped from her eyes and before Robin could wipe it, she shoved him away.

"Or you are upset with me and hiding it because of the prank I pulled on you," Sabrina’s expression turned sorrowful, and Robin felt helpless.

He couldn’t imagine what was happening to her this time, whether it was postpartum depression or anxiety. However, he was more eager to announce their wedding to the world than she even wanted.

"My queen, you know that if you are strong enough to walk down the aisle right now, it won’t take me more than an hour to arrange for our wedding," Robin said.

Sabrina smiled through tears at his kind words. From the look in his eyes, she could tell that it was true.

Besides, she needed to shed some weight for her dream gown to fit, and it had been less than 24 hours since she delivered the twins.

"I’m just waiting for you to get better. Weren’t you the one who said that you wanted to look a certain way in your wedding gown, which is why you didn’t want to get married while pregnant?" Robin leaned closer and asked, his gaze admiringly fixed on hers.

Sabrina was left speechless. She was just trying to test his reaction, but he took it seriously.

However, she still did not reveal that she was joking, as she was eager to have her wedding announced to the world.

The test he passed doubled her love for him, making her desperate to be announced as his wife once again. It wasn’t long before a knock was heard on the door.

"Come in," Robin said, away from the cot so as not to wake the sleeping babies. Sabrina was expecting Matilda or Lizzy, but was surprised by the person wheeling a trolley inside her ward.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Jewel," the chef said as he wheeled a trolley with different kinds of foods, including soups, into the room.

Sabrina was already salivating. After all, pushing out two babies was no joke. "Thank you, James," she said with appreciation when grandma entered the ward behind the chef.

Sabrina’s mood soared and her excitement doubled. "Grandma!"

The elderly woman went to hug Sabrina, making it feel as if she was hugging her late mother.

God knows how much Sabrina loves this woman, and the feeling was mutual, as the elderly woman’s love for Sabrina surpassed that of her own grandsons, Robin and Jacob.

"Sabrina, I’m happy to see you awake. Do you feel any pain anywhere?" Grandma asked seriously. Sabrina paused for a moment as if trying to feel her body.

"No, I feel completely fine," Sabrina replied.

Grandma smiled a little and asked her again, "Have you tried walking or peeing?"

"Not yet," Sabrina’s brows furrowed a little, as she guessed that the old woman was up to something or hinting at something important.

"You should," grandma suggested.

Sabrina got off the bed and walked normally to the washroom without a hint of discomfort.

"James, you can go," grandma said to the chef as soon as Sabrina closed the door of the washroom.

The chef obeyed as grandma went to check on the babies. "They look just like the two of you. Have you named them yet?" she asked. Robin replied,

"Robert and Savannah, but we shall have a big party to announce them to the public. I also have to begin the arrangement for our wedding."

"Please, let her recover properly. Even if she feels okay, her body still needs rest. Please don’t stress her out," Grandma pleaded. "She needs to recover for me to have more grandchildren."

Robin shook his head firmly. "No, two kids are enough. I won’t let my wife go through that pain again." He couldn’t shake the feeling of helplessness he experienced during Sabrina’s labor.

Grandma smiled and reassured him, "Every woman goes through it. The pain is forgotten the moment the child is born." Robin was about to respond when Sabrina emerged from the washroom, wearing a deep frown.

"What’s wrong?" Robin asked, concerned.

Chapter 405: Chapter 405 – Life after childbirth

"What’s wrong?" Robin asked, concerned. Sabrina frowned and admitted,

"It stings when I pee." She felt self-conscious after saying it, glad that the chef wasn’t there to hear.

Grandma chuckled and nodded, expecting that reaction. Sabrina’s little trick against Robin must have prevented Cecilia from being in the labor ward, but she had partly guessed it would be so.

"Don’t worry. You had an episiotomy. You will be relieved in a few days, but you should also inform the doctor when he comes to check on you," Grandma reassured her.

"I will," Sabrina said seriously. Just as she thought that stitching the cut she had was enough, she was yet to deal with the sting that comes with it.

"Now eat before they wake up," Grandma beckoned to the twins in the cot and spoke in a hushed tone.

However, knowing that Robin had been with her all night, it also meant that he hadn’t eaten.

Robin had been watching the babies with a smile on his face for hours, amazed by their cuteness and the fact that they were formed from his DNA. It was so miraculous; he couldn’t tear his eyes off them.

"Let’s all eat. I can’t finish all this," Sabrina retorted. Grandma smiled knowingly, "I guess you are referring to Robin. He is the only one who hasn’t eaten."

Sabrina gazed at Robin with love oozing in her eyes as she said, "My King. Please eat with me. Or I won’t eat."

Somehow, her last words managed to capture Robin’s attention and his gaze shifted from the twins as he said to Sabrina, "I will feed you first."

Robin was so happy that he didn’t know how to show it to anybody. He felt complete with his small family.

In the course of the meal, one of the babies began bawling. "Motherly duty calls. You never get to finish your meal," Grandma smiled and moved the food trolley away.

Though she dotted on Sabrina, she also wanted her to learn the about the reality of life.

As soon as she picked up Savanah and gave her to Sabrina to breastfeed, Robert began bawling too.

Sabrina had not even begun breastfeeding one and thought about how to breastfeed both of them together as she had seen some mothers do in related videos.

Her anxieties were swept under the carpet by Grandma’s suggestion. "I guess one of them would have to accept formula again."

The suggestion sounded good, but Sabrina couldn’t shake her desire to try breastfeeding both of them together. "What if I feed them together?"

Grandma smiled, pleased with her resolve, but there was a small problem with her suggestion.

"I doubt you will have enough breast milk. It would take a few days for your breast milk to come in, but for now, the colostrum your body is releasing would be enough for them."

Grandma began to help the baby latch on, but suddenly, Sabrina burst into laughter, leaving everyone amazed. "What’s the problem?" Robin asked, unsure whether to join in her laughter or call a doctor for her.

"It’s so ticklish," Sabrina said, with infectious laughter, causing everyone else to laugh with her.

A few days later, Sabrina was discharged from the hospital, and the villa was constantly flooded with well-wishers. Today, it was Matilda and Lizzy. Their men were involved in something they didn’t want to reveal. "

Tilda, you look gorgeous," Sabrina exclaimed at the sight of Matilda. She was enjoying fresh air in the garden with a cup of tea while the twins slept after nursing.

Matilda pouted and retorted, "I look like a pig."

Sabrina disagreed with a smile and had to admit that Matilda was looking even better than when Sabrina was at the same stage in her pregnancy.

"Naaarh, your bump is cuter than mine when I was in my third trimester."

"Well, I hope it doesn’t grow bigger than this. I feel so heavy," Matilda pouted again. She was happy because Devin was always there for her, but as for carrying the child, nobody could help her with it.

"It will grow a little bigger than that, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be as big as mine. I’m still trying to lose all that belly fat before my wedding day," Sabrina revealed excitedly.

Both her sister and Matilda were very happy to see her excited about the wedding once again.

Have you set the date already?" Lizzy asked curiously, joining Sabrina on the garden bench.

"No," Sabrina responded before she paused. "Please excuse me." Then she beckoned to one of the servants. "Get some more cups and bring more tea."

She turned to Matilda again and said, "Come and sit down. Don’t stand for too long with the weight, lest it affects your legs later."

She recalled the number of times Robin had to massage her legs with warm water at the latter stage to relieve her swelling.

Matilda sat down at the same time the servant returned with more tea and cups as Sabrina said to Lizzy, "I will set the date after reaching my weight loss goal."

Matilda’s brows raised and she was about to say something when Lizzy asked again, "I heard that breastfeeding helps to lose the baby fat. Is it true?"

Lizzy’s seriousness in pregnancy and nursing issues made Sabrina suspicious and she asked, "Lizzy, are you pregnant yet? You are asking the question as if you are preparing for delivery."

Matilda laughed as Lizzy replied, "I wish I was pregnant." She sighed and continued, "Maybe it’s because I’m too desperate to experience it. I will just relax and allow nature to take its course but I’ve told Dan that we have to do it every day."

Sabrina and Matilda laughed at the seriousness Lizzy attached to her demand. "God, do you want to die?" Sabrina asked jokingly.

Lizzy shrugged and responded, "Well, I enjoy it so answer my question. I’m very concerned with the weight loss after childbirth."

Sabrina pursed her lips and responded, "Not for everybody but it does in my case. I haven’t started exercising but nursing two babies seems to be worth it," Sabrina shrugged. "Also, I could thank my naturally thin frame. Even during pregnancy, I didn’t gain much weight in other areas of my body like most women do. Only my stomach seemed as if it would fall and leave me standing," Sabrina added, as Matilda and Lizzy laughed.

"I hope the same thing would happen in my case," Matilda said with hope. After some more talks and more of Lizzy’s silly questions, the two women left.

However, the support that Sabrina received from her family and especially her husband was unexpected.

With grandma Margaret and the maids around, Sabrina did not need the services of a nanny.

One evening, as the babies lay sleeping on Robin’s naked chest, Jacob knocked on the door and after entering, he said to Robin,

"It’s not in my place to say this, but I think there’s a big problem with JC Minerals."
