Buffy just couldn't believe how absurd Riley had been with her. She was his wife and she's the one that caught him in a compromising position with another woman. She closed her eyes as she lay in the bathtub immersed in vanilla bath beads with strawberry scented candles. Her muscles were sore all over from stressing out on Riley's reaction towards her and the anger that she felt. She really thought that he was an understanding husband. Buffy thought their marriage was made to last forever. She knew that after the last of their child she was distant, but that didn't mean she didn't love him any less. Well as of now there was no lost love. Riley Finn is definitely going to pay for the harm that she caused upon her. The funny, yet unusual thing was that Riley had hired an attorney from Wolfram & Hart. He knew that she was working undercover to find out what they were doing. Then she had another problem as to who hit her on the highway and why. She thought about it carefully and came to the conclusion of Wolfram & Hart. Somehow in someway they were connected.

Holland Manners was in his office and surprised to find out that Buffy Summers-Finn was still alive. His perpetrator didn't do his job as well as he was paid to. He figured maybe there was a way the firm could find something incriminating against her and fry her ass. She was too smart for them and could never accept her reasoning for joining their law firm. Now he knew for sure that after this divorce Buffy wouldn't be able to practice law.

Buffy decided that since Wolfram & Hart were the ones planning the divorce that she should hirer her long time friend Willow Rosenburg-Ozbourne. She called her best friend and explained the situation and agreed to help her out. Afterwards she hung up with Willow, she kept on wondering if she should give Angel a call. Though a part of her wondered what lame excuse she'd think of to tell him. She decided not to make that phone call, but wondered what her Angel was doing.

As the weeks went by both Buffy and Angel has no contact with one another. It wasn't that they didn't want to call one another, but they were extremely busy with work, especially Angel. He just seemed to have a lot of patients everywhere. It was like no matter where he moved there was another pregnant woman waiting for him. All Angel wanted now was a break so he could finally have the courage to call up Buffy.
"Doctor McCallister, you have a patient waiting for you in room two." Angel sighed. He knew that after this patient he'd take his lunch peacefully in his office. He walked in and noticed it was his favorite patient, Cordelia. Cordelia was married to Alexander LaVelle Harris, also his boss at Sunnydale General. This was their second child on their way. Their first child was a boy, so he's hoping that Cordelia wants a girl.
"So how have you been Cordelia? Have you had any upset stomach or any pain around your belly."
"Nope. I'm feeling the same. You know bloated and gradually getting bigger by the minute. I think after this one we won't be having anymore," she said lightly massaging her belly.
"I don't know about that. Xander seems like he wants a huge family."
"Well he's not the that's going to be the size of a beach ball for nine months. I am." Angel laughed. He then went on with his regular examination and then finally had an ultra sound to make sure that they weren't any complications with Cordelia's child.
