Peace p.o.v
Traffic was really bad today, I left school early so that I could get to the surrogacy agency on time. But I was still caught up in the traffic and I am already late for the appointment. I was really starting to get impatient as I kept looking at the time on my wrist. I seriously can't afford to lose this opportunity, I got a client as soon as I registered. That's already a good sign that the heavens are really on my side and I didn't want anything the would spoil it. I was one hour late for the appointment and all I could think of doing was to keep praying that they don't change their mind. I rushed into the agency and I immediately called to tell them I was already in the premises and to ask where I should go. I was told to come to the senior doctor's office, that the person I was to be a surrogate to was present there. "I am already going to them with them?". " Wasn't I suppose to under go some test and fill some forms ? Well it's not like I care about what ever procedures I have to undergo, as long as I can make money to save my baby sister then I am fine with it . I opened the door to the doctor's office and entered. There was a man inside the office sitting just opposite the doctor. He was wearing a designers suit and he was currently busy with his phone. Though I could only see his side profile, I could still tell that he is a very handsome man. "Welcome". The doctor uncharge said with a smile on his face. I noticed the man in front of him wrinkled his nose before turning to take a peek at me. At first, he had an expression like he was stunned as soon as he saw me, then just that minutes the surprise disappeared and his face was back to being emotionless like before. "Hi". I greeted the doctor and my gaze darted towards the man at the other end. "I am so sorry to arrive this late, I got caught up in the traffic. I explained as my eyes strayed towards the man again, as if I was expecting them to say something. "It's okay". The doctor said and pointed to the handsome man. "This is Mr Wilton and he is the one whom you are carrying a baby for". Though I already guessed that but still I feigned surprised " oh... Hi Mr Wilton, it's nice meeting you". " Hi" he replied without tearing his gaze away from his phone. After waiting for some time and the man wasn't saying anything else , I decided to speak. "So what next". "Nothing much". The doctor said with a small smile. " You will have a discussion with Mr Wilton and if he is satisfied with you, then we can proceed to the next step". I turned to look at the man and said, "Mr Wilton, what do you think"?. He didn't bother looking at me instead he looked at the doctor and said. "What ever the doctor decides is fine by me, all I want is a healthy and happy baby". The doctor nods at Mr Wilton words and said, "Miss peace will undergo some texts and if she passes those text we will call you to come over when she is to get inseminated. "Okay". Mr Wilton said and immediately got up, shook hands with the doctor and left . He didn't say anything about the money, I thought staring at the door. "Is he angry?". "Is it because I came late?". " What happened now?". Different thoughts were flooding my mind and I couldn't help but worry. "Calm down miss". The doctor said as if he was reading my mind or I was voicing out my thoughts. "Mr Wilton is a very rich man and since he doesn't seem to have much demands, then you have nothing at all to worry about. You just have to take the tests, and if everything is okay with you then you get to sign the documents. After that you get your first payment and then you get the inseminated". My heart relaxed a bit at his explanation and I smiled at him. "Thank you so much doctor". I said before asking him the most important question that has been on my mind since I arrived. "Can I have the rest now?" . The doctor was taken aback by my question but h didn't ask me anything. He just got up and said, " I will tell a nurse to come get you for an examination".Quan's POV Everywhere was busy with dancers running in the dressing room changing into their costumes because we have just half an hour left before we will be on stage. I checked myself on the mirror and everything was in place. I walk out of the dressing room and walk into the waiting room where others who had already dressed up was waiting. I took a seat and took in a deep breath, this was the biggest stage I have ever danced in my career and to crown it all | was the lead soloist.

I place my two palms together in front of her "I'm sorry Grace, I'm sorry for lying l was at home when actually I was out in a club dancing with a girl I don't even know until that night". I muttered out in anger "Sorry Grace, I'm so sorry for loving you with all my heart, I'm so sorry for waiting on you even when everyone told me to forget about you and move on with my life" "I'm sorry Grace, it wasn't your fault but mine".

I pull her to myself and made her sit on my laps while I gently stroke her hair with care before I spoke up "Uncle Quan will be back very late, why don't I put you to bed, and then you can see him tomorrow morning". I tried convincing her which worked "Okay ".she nods her head to me, I smiled at her and stood up from the couch with Bella in my arms.
