Met With The Ruthless Ethan

~Selina ~

Three days after,

I have signed every documents I needed to sign, also done all the necessary checkups, my fertile eggs have been retrieved as well, the only thing they are about doing now is the implant and my surgery.

“Can you spread your leg a bit wider,” the doctor incharge said, calling my attention back to the present, I am currently lying on a bed in the surgical room, wrapped in a thin blue sheet, my legs are hanging in the air so as to give access to the doctor.

She touched my V area, hand fondling with some area like she was searching for something. Honestly, I felt cringe and uncomfortable but I know better not to complain, “Okay, it is confirmed,” the doctor said, although I don't understand what he meant by that but I still nodded and relaxed my aching leg.

“This surgery will take minimum of 8 hours and it will be combination of your heart surgery and the insemination. If you are okay with that, you will be sedated now,” fear flashed across my eyes but it only lasted a second.

I thoughtfully took in my lips, closed my eyes and gave them a go-ahead.

I felt a sharp prickle in my arm, the pain came and left like it was never there. Before I could open my mouth to release air of relief, my muscle tensed, I got enveloped with weakness. I tried to keep my eyes open but I couldn't. The last thing I remember was the surgeon's entrance into the room.

…

“Is she going to be fine?” This was the first thing I heard upon waking up, the voice sounded cold yet had an undeniable sexy depth.

I tried to steady my gaze, my tongue ran over my lips to get rid of the pale flakiness, I weakly stared ahead and I could see blurry figures, they looked like they were having a serious discussion not have noticed that I was awake.

I tried to raise my arm up but it fell back, hitting the water jug by my bed side. The sound distracted them and they all rushed to my side... except that blurry figure strolling with soo much composure

“Hi, how are you feeling?” Doctor Tonia asked with a genuine smile on her face. I tried to tug my lips but a side of my face hurt so I gave a thumbs up instead. Meanwhile, my eyes drafted between Dr Tonia and the man who was now on a call while resting on the window frame. His back was turned to us.

“Who is he?” I asked In a very low voice, trying to make sure that he didn't hear . It was as if he could feel something different through the silence, he turned around, earning a gasp from me.

Oh heavens!! Is this man God's special creation? Did he take forever to create him? because how could someone be this perfect?

He has a milky white skin which is not very common among men, his long black hair was styled to cover half of his face, his cherry red lips was perfectly shaped.

This man's gene must be very sharp. "Fuck" I didn't realize that I said that out until I noticed the light crease on his forehead.

He strode towards me and the closer he got, the more his extinct features got clearer, how glassy hazel eyes shone with the little ray that settled in the room, his soft cute lips complemented his very fair skin, his long lashes were curled up to look heavenly handsome.

“Are you done gawking?”

I cleared my throat and hid my face in embarrassment.

“I am Ethan, we will be doing this business together.”

My eyes widened in exaggeration, why is he so much of a businessman?

It was as if he didn't notice my facial reaction or perhaps, he noticed but chose to ignore it.

“My assistant will be here soon, you can tell me the benefits you want,” Ethan said, his thin eyes staring down at me.

My mind wandered off for a while before I finally came to a conclusion, “I will love to go back to college,” I decided.

“Done, what is your major?” He asked, his gaze held an hint of curiosity.

Looks like a billionaire gets intrigued too, “my major is engineering, computer engineering.”

I can swear that I saw his eyes widen, his lips pursed and I could swear that I saw his lips form a small smile.

“Good, it is sorted but I have my condition.”

I didn't say anything which simply implies that he should go ahead, “you are just a tool for birthing my kid, you won't have any access to them in the future. Also, we will pretend not to know each other after the deal is completed.”

I let out a mocking smile…. I am not even rich enough to take care of myself, not to talk of taking care of some kids. “I will be expecting the contract,” my tone changed to that of business and as soon as we finalized that, I turned to the other side and slept off.

The only time I woke up was when the contract was delivered to me, I hurriedly signed it and resumed back to sleep. This time around, I didn't wake up until the next day, it was after I finished my breakfast that a knock came on the door.

“Come in,” I murmured with the last strength in me, my body is now fully recovered but due to the way I overate, I am weighed down.

Ethan's assistant walked in, looking stoic and professional, “Good day ma'am, your discharge has been processed, a doctor has been assigned to come daily for your post-surgery treatment and I am here to drive you to your villa,” he said. My mouth dropped wide as I stared at him in confusion, mixed with a bit of shock.

“Villa?”

“Ohh,my bad, your vacation home,” he corrected himself as if that made any changes. When did I own any home? How did I suddenly have right to a vacation home?

I have so many questions to ask but I don't even know where to start from.

“Ho… how come? I didn't buy any house? You are probably mistaken,”i tried to come up with a word.

His furrowed brows loosened up a bit, “you probably didn't read the clause in the contract ma'am, it is part of your pay as being a surrogate mother.” How rich is this man? I better not offend him in the future.

My mouth formed an ‘oh’, I nodded in understanding and stood up from the bed, he stood behind me to guide me but he made sure not to touch me… probably one of the instructions given to him by his boss.

Surprisingly, we weren't stopped by anyone on the road, everyone bowed and greeted us respectfully, infact, i was awed. Is this how influence change people?

I waved off the thought and followed the man out. “By the way, what is your name? I don't want to call you the name i have in mind,” I broke the silence that previously lingered in the air.

“Thane ma'am,” he answered.

Ma'am? I bet I am not ready for this life style but this is the only thing that can get me away from the mess I got myself into.

We entered the elevator and we arrived at the underground park in a jiffy. I thought the villa was the end of my surprises but to my shock, a pink Tesla was waiting for me in the car park. I screamed in shock, trying desperately to hold my tears back.

Did he investigate me? No way this could be just a coincidence, I have always wanted a pink Tesla all my life but even if I sold everything I have, I wouldn't probably get quarter the price, that was why I reluctantly let go.

I carefully matched towards the car, I ran my hand over the shimmery glassy surface, the glossiness melt my hand, making me feel like I was in a new world entirely. I bent down to smell the goodness but I was brought back to my senses by the cold voice.

“Something is going to grow inside you, I don't think you should start messing around with my KID.”

The way he emphasized the last word triggered something in me, I froze, too afraid to turn my back to the obvious owner of the voice. I don't know if I am being silly, but the sudden threat makes me want to do something crazy.

I turned around with an almost invisible smirk on my lips, my eyes locked straight with the cold, glassy hazel eyes.

“Maybe you can make me stop.” I already said it before I could hold myself back.

His lips tug upward a little, he took two steps forward with his two hands in his pocket, “I like them naughty you know.”

I quickly palmed my mouth, too nervous to give him a response. What the heck did I just get myself into?
