Meanwhile at the Sheffield house…
"Niles can you believe him?"
"No Mrs. Sheffield…I didn't think he would do this again"
"I can't believe it! I thought by marrying him it would make him come out of the office a little more. Eleven years I have known this man and he hasn't changed a bit!"
Months passed and Fran was no longer talking to Maxwell on the phone…
Fran looked down at her big belly. She put her hand on it and felt her little daughter give her a sharp kick. She was now 7 and half months pregnant and Maxwell hadn't been there for a singe day of her pregnancy.
"Mommy" came Jonah's voice from the back of the room
"Yes honey" Fran said turning around to see her son
"How come Daddy hasn't been home for so long?"
"He thinks business should come before his family" Fran said still being a annoyed at Max.
"Can I say hi to baby?"
"Sure sweetie, come here"
Jonah walked over to his mother placing his little 4-year-old hand on her tummy. Fran was so happy that all her children accepted the fact of having a new member in the family.
All of a sudden Fran felt a sharp pain go right through her body. Her face went pale and Jonah felt it too.
"Mommy what is wrong?"
"Jonah, go get Niles…and quick!"
Fran was going into labor! Jonah rushed out of the room to go get Niles. All of a sudden Brighton walked in the house from Paris to see his mother screaming on the couch.
"B!!! Owww…this hurts!"
"Mom what is wrong?"
All of a sudden Niles came rushing into the room and explained to Brighton that his mother was in labor. Brighton not even knowing Fran was pregnant was told to go get Gracie and take Jonah and Eve with him.
Niles took Fran by the arms and led her to outside where the limo was parked. He put Fran in and called Max on the cell phone.
At the hospital…
Fran was screaming in the hospital room while Niles signed her in. All of a sudden she stopped and it seemed like the contractions where slowing down a little. Niles walked in the room to see a sweaty Fran and a look of terror on her face.
"Max isn't here Niles. What am I gonna do?"
"Don't worry Mrs. Sheffield, I'm here" he said knowing his boss would hopefully be here in a few hours.
All of a sudden Dr. Reynolds came in saying that Fran was not in labor. She was having warm up contractions again like she had with the twins. It seems she was under stress since her husband has been away for so long.
Just then Max walked in the room panting
"Fran, are you alright?"
"Yes"
"Fran I am so sorry…business should come second. Why aren't you screaming and trying to push?"
"Warm-up contractions. Honey you are sorry?"
"Yes of course I am…and I am never leaving you again especially when you are pregnant"
"What you wanna go through this a 7th time? Fran asked playfully
"You never know!"
They kissed passionately and in a few hours they went home. For a while the couple would no longer we apart!
The family's adventures will continue…what will happen next?
