もっと見る“The deal is simple, I need a healthy woman who will bear my child and in exchange I shall take care of her, everyday and five years after she must have conceived my child.” Jason said simply, his blue eyes boring into her.
She kept her eyes down, giving him access to her defining features.“Look at me, I need to know if you are pretty enough and I want to know your blood type and blood group. Do you know them off the top of your head?”“Errr…yes, I know them” She said still looking down.“I asked you to raise your head, I will not repeat myself again.”What kind of nuts had his secretary allowed into his office, did she not know that he did not have the time for such nonsense.The girl slowly raised her head to look at him, she was pretty alright, if you liked them chubby.Jason stood from where he sat behind his table and walked over to her, a hand snaking out to her chin.“Not bad” he stated, running his eyes over her features. She had full, very kissable lips and her eyes… what were they?“What color are your eyes?” He asked absently, still moving her face right and left.“Hazel, sir” she managed to squeak.“Hmmm”He let go of her face and stepped back, allowing his eyes go all over her body, she was wearing the most horrible clothing he had ever seen but other than that, she was a perfect candidate to bear his child.“I will have my secretary draw up the contract for you to go through, you are to take a minimum of two days going through it and I am to see a signed document on my office table. After that, you are moving in permanently with me.”“Moving in?” The girl gasped, her eyes flying up to his face.“Is that going to be a problem? It is part of the contract and I do not need you flaunting my baby to poor and dirty environments like the one I am sure, you are from. You will be moving in with me and if you have an issue with that, I will cancel this meeting immediately and invite the next person.”“I have no problem at all.” She said, staring at her toes.“This would not do at all” Jason tsked“Excuse me?” She asked“You shall learn how not to always act like a servant, you are going to be in my face for the duration of your conceiving and pregnancy, I have enough people bowing to me daily and I have no intentions to add you to that list so you will look me in the eye, anytime I speak to you. Is that totally understood?”“Yes sir”“Good, meet my receptionist for my business card, the special one that includes my address. I will see you when you have signed the contract and although I see no need in reminding you, I am sure you remember signing a non disclosure agreement, meaning nothing I say here should leave this room.”“I know what an NDA is” the girl muttered.“Speak up girl, I cannot hear you if you whisper like that.”“I said I understand you.”“Good, now leave and ask my secretary to bring in air fresheners, you stink. Something we have to change when you become bound to me.”Bound to him… bound to that asshole?, Elizabeth fumed.The man had just treated her like dirt because she needed money, she had heard about his need for a surrogate from his blabber mouth of a secretary who let it slip when she was in the club.Fortunately, Elizabeth had heard it and confronted her immediately, they had both come to an agreement that she would come for the interview solely if she kept her mouth shut about where she had heard it from.
Right now, Elizabeth was not so sure she wanted to go through with this, she was having cold feet and only because the man in question looked and acted like the devil. He had asked for air fresheners because he thought her stinky?Elizabeth guffawed in mirth at the way she had kept her head down just like the secretary had told her and made sure to answer the yes sir at every interval where there is a break in his talk. She patted herself on the back for having pulled off a very perfect plan and now she was going to back to her mother, who was sick and the reason why she was going to bear a child for an arrogant billionaire.……“Sandra is here sir, should I let her in?” Jason’s receptionist inquired over the phone.“Yes but let her be aware I do not have time for chit chat and if that is what she is here to do, she might as well go back to where she is coming from.”Jason could hear his receptionist transfer his message to Sandra whom he heard elicited a litany of curses, all directed at him.They had dated for a while, Sandra and him. Both of them had known it was just a relationship of convenience and when the time had come to let go, they would do so without batting an eye lid.Reverse was the case as Sandra became too clingy, wanting more that he had no intentions of offering and he had broken up with all the intentions of even paying her off. She had rejected his money but instead came around once in a while to create mischief, he always let her do what she wanted but today he needed to be serious.According to his father, if he did not get an heir or a wife within some months, he would have to forfeit the company he had managed and scrapped to build. Jason was no fool, he knew his father was at the verge of dying, the doctor had told him that he was at the final stages of the cancer that was eating at his heart.His plan was to make sure he died with his eyes on someone who would take over company after Jason and so here he was planning to marry and even father a child with a total stranger, just so his father could get what he wants.
“The Baddgermans are here and they want to see you personally, sir” The receptionist voice rang out loudly.“Send them in” Jason respondedCAMILLA“Before you kill me…”My father’s voice greeted me the second I stepped into the living room.I paused in the doorway and narrowed my eyes at him.He sat comfortably on the sofa, one ankle resting on his knee, looking entirely too pleased with himself for a man who had conspired behind my back.“How did it go with Nathan?” he asked.“I cannot believe you would band together with Nathan Clark to manipulate me into speaking to him.”My father placed a hand over his chest in mock offense.“I cannot believe it either but here we are, little dove.”Despite myself, my lips twitched.He patted the empty spot beside him.“Besides,” he continued, “you were miserable and I wanted to do anything I could to cheer you up.”A reluctant smile tugged at my mouth as I crossed the room and collapsed onto the sofa beside him.“I can see you are cheered up,” he observed.I let out a dramatic sigh and flopped sideways, resting my head against the back cushion.“He explained everything and I told h
NATHANFor a man who had gone through the roughest arc of life and came out on top, I had never been more terrified than I was at the moment.Camilla kept her eyes on me, waiting, her fingers tapping away at the table.Sarah appeared with two steaming bowls of soup and a basket of bread.She placed them between us and looked from Camilla to me then she narrowed her eyes at me.“If she stabs you with the spoon, I saw nothing.”“Thank you, Sarah,” Camilla said sweetly.Sarah patted her shoulder.“You are welcome, sweetheart.”She cast me another glare before she walked away.I watched her leave before turning back to the woman who had completely ruined me for every other woman on the planet.Her expression was unreadable so I had no idea how to know what she was thinking.I took a deep breath.“I am sorry.”“That is your opening line?” Her eyebrow arched at this.“Yes and I mean it.”She picked up her spoon and stirred the soup absently.“You vanished for two weeks, ignored my calls and
CAMILLAI was not in the mood for anything that day.My desk was a mess of files, half-open emails, and a coffee that had gone cold at least an hour ago.I exhaled sharply and pushed the document away like it had personally offended me.“Men,” I muttered under my breath.My secretary’s voice came through the intercom a second later.“Ma’am, your client is here.”Right.The last-minute meeting my father had “strongly encouraged” me to take.I sat up straighter.“Send them in,” I said, smoothing my blouse automatically.I did not bother looking up when the door opened.“Hey.” My fingers froze on the pen in my hand.I hoped to God it wasn’t it but when I raised my head, there he was.Nathan in the flesh standing in my office looking infuriatingly calm.My grip tightened on the pen.“What the hell are you doing here?” I asked slowly. “I have a client coming through that door in some minutes. You cannot be here”My voice came out sharper than I intended.His eyes held mine and he took a c
NATHANLeila looked oddly calm for a woman currently in handcuffs.Perhaps because she still thought she had a way out of this or perhaps because she still believed someone would come for her.No one was coming.The black SUV came to a stop outside the building and the men waiting stepped out almost immediately.One flashed a badge.DEA.“You bastard” she muttered under her breath.I almost smiled.Christian had been the one to bring the idea to me after I informed him of everything that happened.Apparently, a friend of his knew someone in federal law enforcement and Leila’s organization had been on their radar for years. Drugs. Illegal arms movement. Money laundering.The problem had always been getting close enough to pin anything substantial on her.Leila was careful and meticulous which was precisely why she had survived this long.Until she made the mistake of touching Camilla.That had been the beginning of the end for her.The agents approached us and one of them nodded toward
NATHANI woke up with a hangover.After dropping off Camilla, I had seen myself home and then proceeded to drown myself in whiskey so I did not think about how hurt she had been and how she had refused to look in my direction when I dropped her off.She was right and she was wrong.She wasn’t a liabilit
CAMILLAYes, you are perfectly right.Downing the drink had been a terrible idea.My eyes watered and my breath escaped my lungs as the hot liquid burned through my lungs and set fire to my stomach.I doubled over, my legs weak while Nathan caught me in his arms.“Camilla, are you okay?” He asked, scream
CAMILLA“I should have known Williams that the first thing you do immediately we reconnect is screw me the fuck over” I heard Nathan snap as soon as I stepped into the lodge.“You did not want my publicity” He raved. “What better way to get them to see your resort than having two competitors in the sa
NATHANShe wasn’t saying anything which was unlike her.I expected that she would bombard me with questions immediately Sarah left but she was quiet… too quiet.“Well?” I prompted“Do you want to talk about it?” She asked.I had never wanted to talk about how sour my marriage had gone with Eleanor until
