THE BLACKWELL SURROGATE
Two lives brought together by desperation. One needed an heir, the other needed a lifeline. Love was never part of the plan.
Blessing Hayes is a twenty-five year old lady.
Her father's death leaves her family drowning in debt. She is desperate to save her sick mother and keep their home. With nowhere else to turn, she accepts a highly paid surrogacy arrangement.
Ethan Blackwell is a 31-year-old billionaire who has built a successful business empire and wants a biological heir to inherit everything he has. His wife, Zara, cannot carry a pregnancy, so Ethan turns to traditional surrogacy.
Blessing agrees to carry Ethan's child for the money she desperately needs. Ethan gets the heir he wants. It should be a simple arrangement, with no room for emotions.
But living under the same roof changes things.
Ethan begins to admire Blessing's intelligence and strength. Blessing slowly discovers Ethan. Neither of them plans to fall in love, but their growing connection becomes impossible to ignore.
Then the secrets surrounding Ethan's marriage begin to surface.
Zara is secretly involved with James, her man friend, while Ethan's uncle is plotting to gain control of the family fortune. Zara is manipulated into helping steal Ethan's money, unaware that James has been using her for his own benefit.
When the truth finally comes out, Zara, Ethan's uncle and James are exposed and arrested.
Blessing gives birth to twins. She is their biological mother because the surrogacy was traditional.
The woman who entered Ethan's life because she needed money must now decide where she belongs, while Ethan must confront the truth about the woman he has come to love.
What began as a contract becomes something neither of them ever planned for: a family built from desperation, trust and a love they never saw coming.

Chapter: The Woman in the RestaurantEthan’s POVWhy was my wife staring at strangers? What business does she have with them? “Babe, do you by chance know any of them?” I inquired. “What? Know them? No! I don’t!” She replied. I decided to mind my business and focus on what we visited the hospital for. Miss Hayes, my wife and I met with the Doctor. With my Lawyer, Barrister Mark, also present, everything went seamless. Barrister Mark cleared his throat and said “Miss Hayes, I hope you know what you are signing in for?”“Yes, Barrister, I do.” She said confidently. “Good. This is not the same as gestational surrogacy. Your genetic connection to the child creates additional legal and emotional considerations. Are you aware?“Yes. I am.” “Alright. Sign here.”Without hesitation, Miss Hayes signed. Several weeks after the insemination, the doctor confirmed the pregnancy. At the next scan, they discovered two foetuses.My job knew no bounds. I went ahead to get a nanny for her mother so she could concentrate on why sh

Chapter: The Woman Zara DespisesBlessing’s POV“I am so sorry, I don’t know how they missed your name. You’re qualified. Please, join others in that office.” He apologized. I wiped my tears immediately. My heart leaped for joy and my joy knew no bounds. “Definitely, my mother’s prayers are working” I said to myself as I joyfully walked to the room. We were addressed again by the same lady. “I congratulate everyone here for making it this far. The next step is medical assessment. We have our own private hospital we use. Our Doctor is trustworthy and competent. We have been working with him for fifteen years now. The driver will drive you to the hospital to take your test and after some days, you will get an email if you are qualified or not.

A lady sitting at my right hand whispered to her neighbor by her right hand. “I hear

Chapter: The Stranger Who Almost Hit MeBlessing’s POVI shut my eyes. I thought that was the end of me. Suddenly, I heard a voice. “Hey, are you okay? You seem worried and lost in thought.” A gentle young man said as he stepped out of an SUV car. I finally opened my eyes. I found myself lying on the floor. He rushed to me, held my hands and helped me up. I felt so embarrassed to be helped by a rich, fine young looking man. He was neatly dressed and here I was, looking tattered from head to toe. Before I could process the whole situation, I heard another voice. “Baby, why would you even touch such a filthy thing? Ewww! She looks so dirty.” And you, thank your stars the driver was patient enough; if not, you would have crossed to the other side. Next time, learn to walk with your eyes open and your brain intact.”A young lady said as she dragged the man into the car.

I was in the kitchen preparing a meal for my sick mother when I heard a knock at my door. I went to the door, opened it and found two men at the door.“Good day, ma’am. Is this Late Mr. Hayes house?” One of the men asked.It took me some seconds to respond as I was busy shifting my gaze from one man to the other. None of the faces looked familiar.“Yes, he was my father. How may I help you?” I finally responded.“Great. We are from Fixed Capital Investment Company. Your father loaned a huge amount of money from us and the time he signed to pay back is due. We heard he is no more and that is why we have come to inform the family so we can get our payment.” The other man said.I insta
