Chapter 0002

Lulu arrived at the hospital and was immediately led into the doctor’s office.

“What happened Dr Lopez?”

‘Oh Mrs Moore…”

“Please call me miss Bridge from now.”

“There’s been an horrible mistake, I promise nothing like this has never happened in the history of our hospital.”

Lulu pulled out a chair across from her, "Well tell me what happened.”

“Before insemination, the nurse in charged of your ivf had found out that your husband had no living sperm cells, your infertility issue was from your husband.”

“What?!” Lulu threw her hands over her mouth in astonishment, that meant there was no way Emery was actually pregnant with Alex's child. She was lying to him!

"Wait, so how come my pregnancy was successful?"

"That's the problem, one of our hospital's biggest client was also scheduled for an insemination on that same day, the samples were swapped."

"Wait, so what you're saying is... I'm pregnant with someone else's child?"

"Not just anyone, David Carlson's child."

"Am I supposed to know who that is?"

"He's the world's most famous artist, how haven't you heard of him?"

"That's not important! How could you have made such a terrible mistake?!"

"We know, and we are trying to fix it which is why we thought to let you know first."

The door barged open and a crying nurse walked into the doctor's office.

"Dr Lopez, my life is over, what do I do?! my career! all of my hard work."

Lulu recognised her as the nurse who had been in charge of her case.

She broke down in more tears, "I heard he's on his way," she was trembling.

"Today is his appointment, he's supposed to meet with the surrogate today..."

Lulu could not understand the big deal about this man and why everyone seemed to be so worried. Yes it was a disaster but there had to be a solution.

"Relax, we will find a way around things..."

"No you don't understand!" The nurse sobbed, "all my years of hard work are gone and I'll be going to jail soon."

The nurse suddenly fell before Lulu and went on her knees, holding Lulu's arms, "please miss could you act like you were the scheduled surrogate? he has no idea yet and..."

"We will not be doing anything of such!" Doctor Lopez immediately interjected, "we are already in a big problem if he finds out about this incident, let alone lying to him would put the hospital in further issues."

The nurse buried her face in her hands, "I'm so dead."

"We can just talk to him..." Lulu wondered how they could treat one person like he was a god.

"You don't understand, David Carlson is the world's craziest man!" The nurse sniffed.

"He once closed down an entire supermarket because they sold him an expired product, it was only expired for a day!"

"He also closed down a hundred million dollar movie production because they were filming outside his apartment," Dr Lopez backed her up.

"He hates being associated with people," the nurse sniffed, "he hates the sound of animals, of humans of anything at all."

"He fired his staff for breathing too loudly, he's barely ever seen in public almost like he's allergic to humans."

"What do I do Dr Lopez?" The nurse continued to cry. "my life is over, the hospital is done for."

One of the other staff walked in and reported, "he's here..."

The three women went dead quiet as they heard the sound of his footsteps.

With every passing second, the women held their breath. Their fates would be decided in a matter of minutes.

The door came open, a tall man clad in a suit walked in.

Lulu had never met such a charming man, he had bright blue eyes, long wavy jet black hair and juicy pink lips, his jaw looked like they had been chiseled to perfection.

His eyes flickered to hers, pulling her out of her trance. Her eyes lingered on his gaze, he had a stern and blank expression. She looked away and swallowed hard.

"I heard you needed to see me," he turned his gaze to Dr Lopez, his voice was deep and was filled with so much dominance.

"Yes in fact, we needed to tell you something about the insemination," dr Lopez was doing her best to be professional.

"There's been a..." she began to say when Lulu interrupted.

"It was successful, I'm the surrogate, it's nice to meet you Mr Carlson," she extended her hand out for a shake.
