All Chapters of Lending My Womb to My Bestie: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

"Abby, you know I've always hated kids. But my husband is barely coming home anymore. I can't lose him! If I do, this life I've worked so hard for will be gone! I need a baby right now to secure my place in the family."Abby, please, have a baby for me. It won't hurt you at all. I'm just borrowing your womb for a few months. We're best friends. You wouldn't just stand by and watch my life fall apart, would you?"As I looked into the pleading eyes of my best friend, Sabrina Reeves, my mind suddenly went into a daze. An agonizing pain flared in my lower abdomen.Looking at the ugly reality behind her face, I fought to keep my rage from boiling over.In my previous life, Sabrina came to me with this same sob story, claiming a baby was the only way to save her failing marriage.But she loathed children. She couldn't stand them. Even if it were her own child, she couldn't guarantee she'd feel even a shred of affection for them.Fully aware of her true feelings, I had told her to just

To make sure Sabrina got the full experience, I deliberately scheduled diaper changing before the labor simulation.Most people at the parenting simulation center were expecting parents. They followed the instructor closely and practiced with serious expressions.The moment Sabrina unfastened the simulation baby's diaper, the poop—made from a carefully blended mix of chocolate cream and coffee grounds—made her gag. She couldn't bring herself to touch it at all.Her brain automatically blocked out the coffee aroma.She ignored the instructor's repeated reminders and demonstrations and was already on the verge of a breakdown.The couple next to her seemed to picture their future child and, overcome with emotion, even kissed the simulation baby's butt.Sabrina visibly snapped.Screaming like she'd seen a ghost, she bolted out of the classroom, leaving everyone behind in stunned silence.When I found her, she was retching so hard she could barely stand.With tears in her eyes, she

So, since Sabrina couldn't squeeze money out of Harold, I was her next target?She was really shameless to even open her mouth and ask for something that insane.I played clueless and listened as Sabrina kept rambling."This whole surrogacy thing costs a lot, and I'm a bit short on cash. As my best friend, you have to help me. Actually, I was going to ask you to cover the whole thing, but then I thought that might be a bit much. I figured 50-50 is fairer. Just think of it as paying into your own retirement insurance."Had she lost her mind? Was I supposed to thank her for the discount?Did she really believe kids were a retirement plan?Kids were the most unreliable these days—especially when they weren't even mine.I gave a disdainful curl of my lip when she wasn't looking. Then, putting on my best nervous act, I asked, "How much do you need?""Not much. Just one million dollars." She said it like it was just 100 dollars.I yelled in shock, "What? One million dollars? Rina, a

While Sabrina was busy chasing after Harold's affair, I took the chance to reinforce my door lock and install security cameras.I knew she wouldn't let me off that easily.Even if there was no love between her and Harold, she could still deceive herself. But I had exposed Harold and ripped away her last shred of dignity.Sabrina couldn't stand seeing me doing better than her.One day, a local news headline caught my eye."Social Decay! Mistress Publicly Shames Legitimate Wife, Then Gets Kicked Out."I clicked on the video. Sure enough, it was Sabrina acting like a total shrew at Harold's company.Suddenly, it all felt utterly pointless.Sabrina, who took such pride in being the legitimate wife, was seen by everyone else as nothing more than a shameless mistress, scorned and despised by all.In the video, she had tried to push Zara, only to get kicked by Harold."Crazy bitch! How dare you hurt my wife? I'll kill you if anything happens to my baby!"I just treated it like a jo

After being reborn, every time I met Sabrina, I habitually recorded our conversations.Along with her chats about finding someone to be a surrogate, I had enough evidence to crush her.I paid to have the video of Sabrina being beaten pinned on a news site.Then, I hired a marketing account to push a comparison post. "The Betrayed Wife Is Actually the Other Woman?"The buzz grew. The online community began to doubt Sabrina's act, suspecting that Harold and I were just playing our parts according to a script.Sabrina tried to explain in her live stream that this was all my dirty trick to smear her name.When the timing was right, I released the recording of Sabrina asking me to be her surrogate."Abby, please, have a baby for me. It won't hurt you at all. I'm just borrowing your womb for a few months."It won't cost you a dime, and you get a son, too. It's like a retirement plan for you and a solution for me. Isn't it perfect?"The internet exploded.After all, surrogacy was il
