His Surrogate Chapter 8
Rowan's PovIt's been a week since my last encounter with her, that crazy woman. But no calls from her, which means she didn't agree to it and that friend of hers wasn't able to convince her.I was just a fool to have listened to that friend of hers, and also accept the idea.Now am back to square one!Since this stupid idea didn't pull through, I'll have to use my last option cause I can't afford to ruin my reputation. I should've gone for that option before now.I picked up my phone to quickly call the person that will help me get rid of her, permanently. I dialed the number, but a call from my other phone interrupted me.I picked up my other phone to see the caller ID, to my greatest shock it was the woman I plan on getting rid of. Zoey!She finally called!How surprising.I picked the call, and placed it to my ear."What a surprise, I thought you'll never call." I said.I don't know why, but I felt like getting on her nerves like the last time. It's still strange to me why I like

Zoey's Pov"Emma, don't you think this is a little too much?" I asked as I stared at myself in a mirror.I am putting on a short black short sleeve gown. My hair in a tight bun, and little strand hanging at my face sides. A bit heavy makeup.I seriously look like someone going on a date."How is it much? You look perfect." Emma said, admiring how she had styled me.I rolled my eyes."I am only going to sign a contract, not going out on a date." I stated.After calling Rowan three days ago to inform him that I accepted, we picked a date when he'll be free and come down to my city so I'll sign the contract. This happens to be the evening it happens, but my dear friend is making it seem like it's a date and got me so dressed up."Even if it isn't a date, you can't look like a rag in front of the Rowan Weston." Emma said, narrowing her eyes at me when I turned to face her."You make it sound like I'm going to meet God." I said, I really don't know why she says his name with so much admira
His Surrogate Chapter 10
Rowan's PovWhen she called and told me she had accepted to be my surrogate, I felt a wash of relief flow through me. We planned on meeting up in her city to seal the contract, so three days forward I flew down to her city.Now today is the day we meet to finalize everything. I got dressed in my black suit, styled my hair to be perfect. I don't know, but I feel like am too overdressed for just a meeting of a few minutes.I brushed the thought off and made my way to the back seat of my car, and soon we hit the road to the venue. Speaking of venue, I totally forgot I didn't send the address of our meeting to her. I picked my phone, and quickly messaged her the venue.Soon we arrived at my restaurant. Three years ago, I had bought this place and turned it to a massive restaurant. One of the best restaurants in this city if i must say. I made my way to the VIP area, there I do stay to host my meetings. No one dare to come that area without my permission.I settled in and ordered two glass

Zoey's PovI made my way to my house door after he had dropped me in front of my house. I rang the door bell, shortly after Emma opened the door. By now, the rain isn't that much."Am so glad you are home safe. I was so worried about you, I tried calling you but networking was furstrating." Emma said as I made my way inside."Yeah, I tried calling you too cause my car decided to ditch me at that moment. But network was bad." I said, sitting on the couch."Really?! So sorry about that, but how did you managed to get home without being drenched?" She asked, sitting next to me."Rowan dropped me." I said, as I pulled off my boot heels."What?!" Emma half yelled, making me jump on my seat a little."You got a ride by, the Rowan Weston?!" Emma asked, excited.I rolled my eyes."You sound like I got a ride from the almighty God." I said with a scoff, relaxing my back to the comfy couch."Hell yeah!" She said.I stared at her like she's gone nuts."Tell me about it?!" She asked."Tell you ab

Zoey's PovI opened my eyes to look up at what on earth i had bumped in to that made me break my glass of milk, and almost pushed me to the ground. I was dumbstruck when I saw it was him, Rowan Weston.I felt such a strange tingles run through my body, I didn't want to avert my gaze from his like there is something interesting in those eyes of his that I can't quite place my finger on it.As if being hit to the head, I pulled out of this intense gaze and out of his arms that I didn't know i was in.For a moment, I felt my heart skipped when my eyes landed on his. Strange right?!"You! What are you doing here!" I blurt out, looking down at the broken glass cup on the floor."This is my house." He replied with a straight face.Oh, yeah. I forgot that this is his house."I mean, what are you doing in front of my door like some statue?! Wait, were you peeking on me?!" I asked, narrowing my eyes on him.His eyes went wide for a moment, before he chuckled and mumbled something under his br

Rowan's PovI turned back to see it was Zoey in the water, struggling in the water. She must have fell into the water by accident, and probably do not know how to swim.Great!Without thinking, I dived into the water and went to her rescue. I went down in the water cause she's no more struggling up, but is now down in the water. I sighted her unconscious, and going down slowly. I felt panicked in a second, I reached to her as quickly as I could. I picked her in my arms, and went up to the surface. When our heads were now outta of the water, she's still unconscious in my arms. Fear gripped me, did she really drown to death in just a few minutes?!How is that possible?!"Hey! Hey, Zoey?!" I called out, slapping her cheek slightly.She suddenly started coughing out water which really startled me outta no where, but I am relieved she isn't dead. After a second of coughing out the whole water that went into her system, she stopped when her eyes met with mine.And for some reason, it felt

Gianna's Pov"Not expecting me?" He asked with an eyebrow raised and giving me one of those sweet smiles of his that flutters my heart, and set my whole body ablaze.To be honest, I still love Bryan. He is my first love, and the first man that fucked the shit outta me. Taking my innocence away, so I don't think I can ever be that mad on him for so long."What are you doing here, Bryan?!" I asked, kinda in a whisper.I really don't want to draw any attention towards us, thank goodness my PA left to pack my stuffs."I am here to see you, Anna. To know how you are doing." He said, taking my hand in his."Didn't I tell you to stay away from me?!" I said, pulling my hand away from his.I looked around, thankful no one was watching."I know, and I wanted to obey your command. But, I can't…all I want is you and just you Anna." He said, cupping one side of my face.I let his words run through my body as I closed my eyes, feeling the warmth of his hand on my cheek. To be honest, I don't want t

Zoey's Pov"Am not leaving till we settle this." I said.I heard a large stamp, and before I could make out what it was. I felt the presence of someone in front of me, and suddenly my arms were trapped in a firm grip which startled me."What's your problem, huh?! Did they send you to annoy me over the edge this night?!" His voice came, and I could sense how pissed he is.His grip on my arms tightened more, hurting me and scaring me too."Do you love annoying me?! Or do you just want to use this as an excuse to try and get closer to me?!" He said.I couldn't make out his face, but am sure he's way pissed. I tried freeing my arms from his grip, but it wasn't working. "Tell me, huh?" He said, I could feel his hot breath on my face like he is so close to my face.Also, an aweful smell of alcohol hit my nostrils. He is drunk!"You are hurting me, let go." I said, sounding terrified.I am terrified, he's drunk and angry. What if something happens, and he hurts me in this drunk angry state

She stood at the door for a while, her eyes on mine through the mirror as she made her way to me.I stood up to face her. She looked at me from head to toe, like she's checking me out. Then she gave me this heart warming smile with teary eyes, now she's being so emotional."I didn't know you could be so emotional all the time." I teased, tryi

Gianna's PovThe sun ray hitting my eyelids made me groan, it's interrupting my beautiful sleep. I turned to hide my face in Bryan's chest, but my hand touched the bed instead.I opened my eyes to see Bryan wasn't on bed. Where did he go? How is he up so early when he always has this habit of waking up late? I'll check what he's up to. I came down from bed and made my way to the bathroom, maybe he's taking is bath. I opened the bathroom door to see it empty, he isn't there. I made my way out of my room and head to the kitchen, maybe he's making breakfast.On entering the kitchen, he wasn't there too. Where could he be then?! Wait! Maybe he has gone for some morning jog.Oh well, I'll just freshen up and make breakfast since I fired my servant out of some foolish furstration. But, I need to call him and know what I'll be making for him.I went back to my room to grab my phone on the lamp stand, beside my bed. On grabbing my phone, I saw some well folded paper under the lamp. What pa

Rowan's PovI do not know if the location Gianna had given me is correct or not. I mean, the location she had sent to me led me straight to a hill top in a deserted place.I can't even see her, or Zoey!I came down from my car to get a better view of my surroundings, and call Gianna to inform her that I have arrived at the same location she had sent. I brought out my phone and dialed her number, after two rings she picks."Turn to your left." She said as soon as she picked my call.I obeyed her and turned to the left, only to find Zoey in a very bad state and Gianna pointing a gun to her from behind. Terrified that my Zoey is being held by gun point, I ran towards her to save her."If you get any closer, I swear I will shoot!" Gianna yelled, making me stop few inches away from them.I didn't know this was Gianna's true nature! How did she become this version of herself?!"Please Gianna, let her go! This is between the both of us, she has nothing to do with it!" I yelled."True. So tru

Am starting to get all tensed."What could be the problem? Zoey hasn't arrived yet." I whispered to Emma's husband, Gerald who happens to be my best man."I do not know, but I will ask Emma." He whispered back.He calmly came down from the altar and went to where his wife is seated, next to Zoey's mom. He whispered into her ear, and she did same too. Looking all tensed. Suddenly the church doors went open, and Catherine was running in without Zoey.She looked all tensed and crying at the same time, it got me alerted. She ran till she was In front of the alter, then fell to her knees crying more. I rushed down to know what was wrong."What happened? Where is Zoey?"

Rowan's PovI made my way out of the room after sparing a last glance at my daughter. Making my way straight up to Gianna's room. Standing in front of her room, I made to open the door when her conversation got my attention."Yes babe, am sure of it. He is in love with Zoey. I told you I had a guy feeling that those two shared something. But I do not care, I will get my frame once I get married to him. Then end his life, and inherit everything for us." She said.I just froze on that spot after what I heard. She never loved me, all she wants is to kill me?!Oh my God!"We will start our future, and raise our family somewhere far. Just like we planned, my love." She said with a giggle.She never loved me, and she made me believe she did!I had to sacrifice my love to be with her, and all she was going to do is kill me?!I felt this anger rising up inside of me.

Gianna yelled as soon as she got into my room.I have been a complete mess these past few days. I do nothing but make myself drunk so I would stop my head from thinking about Zoey.

And lucky enough, she was at home."I had to! He is a changed person and wants to come back, and make things right again." Emma said."That doesn't mean you should go about telling strangers about my life!" I yelled."Julian is no stranger. He was your finacee!" Emma half yelled."He was! He was my finacee, making him a stranger!""You are overreacting, Zoey!""Overreacting, you say?!"Can you imagine her right now?!"Just calm down and listen, Zoey.

Mom and Emma has been really supportive without asking questions, but that doesn't change anything in my life.It only makes it feel worst, and it makes it seem like they pitied me and I don't like it. How am I going to move on from everything if they keep treating me this way with pity?"Dear?""It's not the food mom." I said, not wanting to meet her gaze."Then what is it?" She asked.Should I tell her how I feel?!Maybe it will stop their pity towards me."If it's not the food, then what is it? You know you can always confide in us." Emma said, making me more upset."That's the thing!" I half yelled, hitting the table. "Zoey..""I hate all these pity I see in your eyes and voice!

Zoey's Pov"Ma'am." A voice came into my head, and then a slight tap on my shoulder. I slowly opened my eyes to see it was the cab driver I boarded from the airport. "We are in front of your house, ma'am." He said, giving way for me to see I am really in front of my house gate.I must have dozed off, after so much crying and headaches."Oh. Sorry." I said."It's okay, ma'am. I'll get your things out of the boot." He said and left.I got out of the car, feeling so empty with this never stopping headache. Am finally back home with so much pain and emptiness in my heart."Here's your luggages, ma'am." The cab driver said, handing me my stuffs."Thank you." I said, collecting my things from him.He entered his cab and left. I sighed tiredly as I made my way through the gate to the main entrance. I gave two knocks on the door. It went open soon by Emma, I could see the surprised look on her face. "Zoey?" She uttered in a rather whisper tune.I ignored her with all the questions I see in
