The Billionaire's Surrogate Bride For Christmas

BETH'S POV “Listen, Beth, you should have told me the reason why you never wanted us to have sex was that you're battling some bartholin's gland cyst, rather than hiding under the facade of wanting to remain chaste till our wedding night,” Clement’s outburst left me in shock and I couldn't believe he'd uttered such words to me. “Babe, that's not true. I recently found out about it and I thought it wise to tell you as my boyfriend. Don't make me regret that decision,” I retorted, slightly disappointed as I looked around the college cafeteria to make sure no one was eavesdropping on our conversation. “You must think I'm a kid. You didn't just lie to me; you also deceived me into falling in love with you, knowing we can't have sex; how pathetic can you be?” I was already feeling embarrassed. The attention of the crowd was on us and I wished the ground could open up and swallow me. “Clem, I can never deceive you. I never knew I had such till I consulted a physician—”“Hold it right th

BETH'S POV “Miss Blakes, Doctor Ethan already told me everything. I just want you to comply with me to make the process successful,” She urged, placing her palm on my shoulder and I nodded in agreement, taking a deep breath. “The process is taking place here in my office; there's a special ward in here, so there's nothing to worry about. The nurses are coming in to help you change into a dress provided by the hospital.” With this, she nodded and took her leave as her stilettos clicked against the flawless tiles. The nervousness I was trying to overcome intensified the moment the nurses came in with the sky blue dress, and they assisted me in changing into it. They led me towards a door in the office which led to what seemed like a private ward. On getting there, they made me lie on the bed while waiting for doctor Vivian and soon, she walked in, clad in a surgical suit. “Miss Blakes, you have to relax and cooperate with me to make this process successful,” She said, gazing keenly

BETH'S POV Rays of light streamed through my eyes in a parallel beam and my lashes flickered as I tried to adjust to the brightness of the room. An intense ache in my head made me let out an inaudible yelp as I held my forehead and realised there was a bandage. My eyes widened, and I caught sight of Layla, who was dozing off on a seat beside the bed. I glanced at my surroundings and realised I was actually in a hospital. I was putting on a dress similar to the one I wore the last time I came for treatments and everything began to make sense. “You're awake,” A nurse voiced out with a smiley face as she approached me on the bed and the sound of her voice made Layla jolt back from slumberland.“Bethy!! You're awake!!” She hollered happily, hugging me tightly and I smiled weakly.“How long have I been here, Layla?” I asked, recalling the events that took place before I lost consciousness.“Over a week,” She replied and I was left bewildered. “A week?” I asked in shock and the nurse no

BETH'S POV “Babe, what do you mean? You want this nitwit to bear your child?!” His lover asked with a shocked expression on her face.“You must be joking, right?” Layla asked and he shot her a glare. I was too weak to speak. I just used the atom of strength I had to remain conscious as I watched the scene unfold.“The baby must be kept. The mistake has been made and no child of mine shall be aborted,” He went further to declare and I coughed.“That's impossible! This is doctor Vivian's mistake and she should be bearing the consequences, not Beth. She has an exam in a week and she can't afford to miss that exam for anything in the world,” Layla shot back fiercely at him.“I'm talking about my child, a Gray and you're talking about some fucking exam? She's coming with me to have the child and that's final,” He stated and I scoffed.“No!”“No! Falcon, that won't happen. You want this woman to bear your child? What then happens to me? Never! I can't let that happen.” Leonie hollered at

FALCON'S POV Leonie didn't stop nagging and yelling all through the ride back to my villa and I was extremely annoyed. I drove through the automatic gates and parked in the garage before alighting as I strode into the building.“Falcon!” She yelled after me and I ignored her as I stepped into the living room.“Falcon!” She persisted and I knew she wouldn't stop. Leonie isn't one to give up easily.“Falcon, I'm not done talking, you have to listen to me, what was the meaning of—-”“I want to be left alone,” I stated sternly, cutting her off when I could no longer tolerate her excesses and there was a look of disbelief in her eyes.“Really? You want me to leave because of that thing? Is there something you're not telling me? Have you been having an affair with her? Am I just the pawn in this game?!” She hollered at the top of her voice and I facepalmed myself frustratedly.“Shut the door after you,” I concluded and headed straight to my room, leaving her befuddled.I knew she was furio
