Chapter 4- No More, Not Again
Chloe sensed something was wrong with Clark as she straightened up the living room. The sight of her husband coming through the door with tears in his eyes only confirmed her suspicion.
He shut the door then swept her tiny form into his muscular arms. She could feel his tears wetting her hair. All she could do to comfort him was to nuzzle his neck and rub his broad back.
He sat on the couch, pulling her onto his lap. He laid his head on her shoulder. With one hand he held her tightly, with the other he stroked her slightly bulging stomach.
She knew Clark would relay to her what had happened, so she didn't ask questions.

As Lex stepped out of the limo at his mansion he spoke to his chauffeur, "Jackson, take Miss Lang home and see that she stays home this time."
Back at her home Lana pulled Clark's cell phone out of her purse. Lex had had her phones wired months ago so she couldn't contact Clark, or anyone else for that matter! Lex had been very careful about that.
Lana cursed herself. If she hadn't of upset Clark so terribly, she could have told him what he needed to know. He wouldn't listen to her now, she knew that.
She had to tell him, that's why she had stolen his phone from his apartment. She would have to talk to Chloe. She didn't want to, but with Clark so upset she had no choice!
