Chapter Nine—The Newlywed Mrs Ashford She scoffed, “it’s a tad bit too early to be controlling, isn’t it Mr Ashford.” Stephan’s brows almost reached his eyes, “We have so much to do. The moment those papers were signed, you’re part of the Ashford family. The press would get a hang of it in only a matter of minutes, my PR specialist would make sure of that.” “So?” She arched her brows, “What does this have to do with me not going— “You can’t go home.

Her head hurt from reading the first paragraph, so she pushed it aside and let out a breath before relaxing against her chair, “I have a headache. Please summarize the terms.” She said to the lawyer. He turned to Stephan who gave him the go ahead with only a nod, clearing his throat, “Ah-hem. Well the terms are simple Miss Heathrow—You are to act as a surrogate and wife for the very Mr Stephan Ashford, for a duration of a year and six months. The child in which you are to carry, would not rely on being created by coitus but by artificial insemination…..” The word ‘coitus’ left a bitter taste in her mouth. She felt color rose in her cheeks as her eyes met with that of her husband’s.
