Dorian’s POV

I sat on the edge of the bed, elbows resting on my knees, hands tangled in my hair, as my mind spun nonstop.

After learning everything Candice had been hiding from me…

I didn’t even know how to describe what I was feeling anymore.

Disappointment didn’t seem strong enough.

Heartbreak didn’t feel painful enough.

I stared blankly at the wall in front of me, but all I could see was her face.

Her smile.

The way she laughed when she forgot I was watching her.

I thought she was different.

I really did.

I thought Candice was the kind of woman you could trust. The kind you build a future with. I pictured us together; growing old, raising our children, traveling the world. I wanted that life. With her.

I was ready to give it all up just to keep her.

And it turns out… it was all an illusion.

A damn dream.

“She played me,” I muttered to myself, my voice low and bitter.

“She planned it.“

I clenched my jaw and stood up, pacing back and forth in my room.

  • The Accidental Surrogate's Secret   Chapter 95- Doing Something Regrettable

    Dorian’s POVHow was I supposed to tell her?I typed a few words, then immediately deleted them.“We need to talk about the baby.”No, that sounded too gentle. It didn’t match what I was about to say.“Candice, you have to terminate the pregnancy.”I stared at the words.Too blunt.God… What was I doing?I let out a heavy sigh and dropped the phone on the table. My fingers ran through my hair, pulling lightly at the roots as I leaned back in frustration.There was no way I could say this in a text.It would make me look heartless.I stood up abruptly and paced the room, mumbling to myself.“Maybe if I tell her gently, like… ‘This isn’t the right time for us to be parents’?” I paused. “No. That sounds like I’m trying to comfort her. It’ll give her hope.”I tried again.“Candice, this situation is too messy. We should both move on.”Too vague.I sighed loudly, dragging my palm down my face.I turned away and picked up the phone again.No more texts.If I was going to do this, I had to l

  • The Accidental Surrogate's Secret   Chapter 93- Wanting To End It All

    Candice’s POVI just sat there frozen I wasn’t even blinking. I don’t think I was breathing either.Did I hear him wrong?“W-What…?” I finally managed, my voice trembling, barely above a whisper. “Dorian… what did you just say?”He looked me dead in the eye with not even a single emotion. “I said,” he repeated slowly, “you should get rid of the baby.”My entire world tilted.I blinked as my heart started pounding in my ears. “W-What…?” I choked. “You can’t be serious…”He leaned back, his face stiff. “Candice, I never knew you were this kind of woman,” he said coldly. “I could accept you only as a surrogate to bear my child. But now I see what this is that you’re trying to use the baby to climb up. To bind me. To win your place in a life that was never meant to be yours.”“Your character is too poor,” he went on. “I cannot accept a child born from a woman like you.”I couldn’t even sit still anymore.“Stop…” I whispered. “Dorian, that’s not true. You know that’s not who I am. You

  • The Accidental Surrogate's Secret   Chapter 92- The Dinner Date

    Candice’s POVAfter trying everything, knocking on his door, texting him every night, waiting and hoping. I realized that maybe it was time to stop.Dorian clearly wasn’t ready to listen. Maybe he didn’t even want to.And no matter how badly I wanted him to believe me, I couldn’t force him. Nearly a week later, I had a scheduled ultrasound. It was just a routine checkup, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t excited.The nurse smiled gently as she smeared the cool gel across my belly and adjusted the ultrasound wand.“Alright, Miss Candice,” she said kindly. “Let’s see how baby’s doing today.”I tilted my head toward the screen as it lit up with soft, fuzzy images. Then the doctor pointed.“There,” he said. “Do you see that? That’s the babies nose. And the mouth… see how it’s shaped?”My eyes widened. “Oh my God… really? That’s the face already?”The doctor chuckled. “Yes. At this stage, facial features start to show.“My heart jumped.My mouth fell open slightly as I stared at the li

  • The Accidental Surrogate's Secret   Chapter 91- Why couldn’t he hear me out?

    Candice’s POVMy heart felt like it had been ripped open,Dorian looked at me earlier like I was a complete stranger. No… worse. Like I was a liar. A manipulator. Someone he regretted ever knowing. I knew he was disappointed. Maybe even disgusted. And I couldn’t blame him for feeling that way. I need to win him back. I would do absolutely anything to win him back but then Ruby. This woman who stayed by my side after my divorce. She’d cheer me up with her silly jokes and share advice that helped me hold myself together when I thought I was falling apart.So yes, I loved her like a sister.But I also knew how terrifying Dorian’s stepmother was.The woman had the heart of a viper. If she could twist Ruby into doing this… then there was no telling how far she’d go to hurt the people Ruby loved.I sniffled, wiped my tears with the back of my hand, and looked Ruby in the eyes.“I’m sorry, Ruby,” I said softly.“I have to,” I whispered. “He deserves the truth.”“No!” she cried, crawling

    Candice’s POVI stood there for a long time.My hands were still trembling.His words hurt more than anything I’d ever felt. And now, all that pain, all that anger inside me… it slowly turned into rageRuby who was still sitting on the floor like a broken doll, crying with her face in her palms. I took two steps toward her with my breathing shaky, and my voice came out rough “Why did you lie, Ruby?”“Why, Ruby?” I repeated, louder this time. My voice cracked. “Why would you say something like that? You knew it wasn’t true! You knew what really happened, and yet you stood there and told Dorian something else entirely. You hurt him.”I pointed at my chest, my voice trembling. “And you hurt me.”Ruby sobbed harder, her whole body shaking. “I… I didn’t mean to… I’m so sorry, Candice…”“Do you think sorry fixes this?” I snapped. “Do you really think that saying I’m sorry will make Dorian believe me now? Will it bring back what we had? What about the trust he had in me? Will it bring back
