AIDEN'S POV"Before 2 weeks ago, Penelope Brendan didn't exist" Donald's words felt like a hammer was driven right through my chest and I couldn't even understand why. I had met Pen exactly two weeks ago and she had made me believe that we went to the same high school. I could literally swear that we actually did go to the same high school and I also remember being on the same class project with her, so how come I was just finding out that she didn't exist? "Donald, I need a little more clarification here. What exactly do you mean by Penelope not existing? " I asked, hoping to just hear something different, something I could hold on to, something that wouldn't really make me seem like a crazy guy or look like a weirdo in front of my entire staff. "She might have been going with another name, but after our multiple findings, we discovered that she actually goes by several names and we found pictures of her in different countries

SCARLETT'S POV"There is a problem, Miss. Scarlett" the doctor had said as I sat to face him in his office. The office reminded me of the Principal's office in my high school, everyone knew that been called into the Principal's office meant that you were either in very big trouble or you had done some amazing good and so, when anyone would walk into the class and say "You have been summoned/called into the Principal's office", your heart would do a thousand cartwheels and you'll be caught wondering and pondering over your actions in the last few days. Have I been bad? Did the Principal catch me at the frat party drinking? Was he at the club the other night when I was dancing with Robin in the twelfth grade? A million questions would run across your head in a minute and your heart would pound as though it wanted to burst out of your shirt. If you were being called in for outstanding conduct, you would feel so p

AIDEN'S POVWhat was Scarlett doing in the hospital? Why was she there all by herself and what the fuck is she hiding away from me? "Lucas, could you be more clear please?" I said over the phone. I needed to make sure that I wasn't the one hearing things and that something was actually wrong. At this point, everyone in the board room just started at me aimlessly. They must all have varying degrees of thoughts going on in their nerdy heads, but I didn't really care. The love of my life was most likely not okay and nothing comes before Scarlett... Nothing"Excuse me," I said as I made my way out of the peering eyes of the board room. I needed to sort out some things and even though my company was falling apart and I stood a high chance of losing everything I had ever worked for, Scarlett was still the ruler of my thoughts. "Could you please give her the phone

AIDEN'S POV"Take me to the damn hospital now!" I replayed that conversation in my head for a while, even as I gave an order to the Intelligence team and told them specifics on what to do in order to avert this situation going haywire. "I need you all to work hand in hand and track down that credit card before she has a chance to fly out or leave the damn country with the code that controls the entire company's intelligence..."As I mumbled out instructions, my eyes darted to the television and my senses instantly became at alert. "Can someone please turn up the volume of that screen behind" I asked, without my glance ever leaving the screen. "On it Sir," A guy with dark brown hair in the Intelligence team said. I took a quick glance at him and noticed he was shirtless. How on earth is he shirtless in a formal meeting? Wait... They were about three of them without shirts. Some wore shirts with shorts unde

SCARLETT'S POV I heard his voice.... and I knew that voice damn too well. It was a voice that I had heard in my sleep. A voice I dreamt about.. A voice that whispered in my ears whilst taking me to the heavens.. I knew that voice too damn well... It was AIDEN's. I suddenly heard some commotion outside the door, the nurse and I looked at each other and she said "Can you hold on Miss. Scarlett, let me see what the source of the noise is". I already knew what the source of the noise was, it wasn't news to me at all but I had so many unanswered questions and the one that topped the list of my questions was, How on earth did he know I was here? I just nodded in agreement to what she said and watched as she disappeared through the door to go check out what was going on. Whatever it was,

SCARLETT'S POV"Miss. Scarlett, it seems you have Vasa Previa" "Miss Scarlett.... Miss. Scarlett... Miss. Scarlett!" Jeez, my goodness. "Oh my God, I'm so sorry,""You literally zoned out Ma'am. Are you sure you're fine?" The doctor asked with worry written all over his eyes. My heart went out to him, he seemed so tired and looked like he could just drop down unconscious any second and yet he was being kind and compassionate to me. It made me feel all sorts of warm and fuzzy inside. Or maybe it was just the Mummy hormones? "I'm fine Doctor, I just had to ponder on what you said... What do you mean by Va... sa…”"Type 2 Vasa Previa Ma'am. It's a condition that means your body has somewhat developed an umblical clot, you require surgery to remove it else it might rupture and kill the baby and it could ultimately affect you too" The Doctor said in his explanation. My Baby? My Baby wasn't s

AIDEN'S POV"Where is she?" That was the first thing that came out of my mouth the moment I saw him. Wasn't he the guy that was supposed to be guarding Scarlett? What the hell was he doing there standing in front of the entrance of the Hall I was given directions to? "Welcome Boss" He said as he looked up from his phone, he had been standing and pressing his phone, playing games or something. It made me boil to the pit of my stomach, how dare he be out here playing games while Scarlett is indoors with a Doctor and we have no idea what's going on. "Oh please keep your greetings to yourself. Where is Scarlett" I said, cutting him off immediately. I wasn't here for frivolities or to exchange pleasantries.. I was here because I meant business and I had to stand on that business. "She's inside the consulting room with the Doctor," He said, and as if on cue. The Doctor made his way into the Hall, most likely to know or f

SCARLETT'S POV"Yes, we're doing the surgery," As much as those words were the exact words I wanted to hear, it didn't help that it was still haunted and made me scared. Everything after that had just simply gone by in a very big blur, it didn't make sense to me. Why did I have to have that condition? Was my baby going to be safe? Lord please, let my baby be safe."What's the worst possible outcome Doctor?" I asked because I needed to know, I really needed to know what I was up against and what my fears would be. "As we have discussed earlier, Miss. Scarlett... ""Please let's skip the formalities from now on, I'm very okay with you addressing me simply as Scarlett Doctor, since you're going to be my Doctor for a long while, I might as well just get very comfortable,""Point taken, Scarlett," He said it like something foreign or new to his tongue, with a very ridiculous facial expression, it made me almost g

I’m very excited, just a little bit nervous,” I tried my best to say, even though my voice was cracking.“She’s so perfect Dad, what if she’s too good for me? I have always been so selfish, what if I’m not good enough for her and our kids?,” I continued.

Not.I was in my room, looking up some of the interior design samples that the decorator had sent to me when I felt his shadow over me.“You need help with that baby girl,” Aiden said, towering over me and leaning in for a kiss.“No, but I may need your help with other things,” I said, smiling and reaching out to kiss him.Every day, I fell more and more in love with this beautiful man.“Oh, I sure know how to help with that,” he said, as he scooped me up and planted a kiss firmly on my lips.I squealed.He lifted me and then dropped me carefully on the bed, all the while kissing me fervently like he was parched and thirsty for me.We had been frequently having

If she wanted coffee, she was going to get coffee.Anything for Scarlett. She was going to get any damn thing she wanted and that was final.I needed to make a few calls because I had to make everything official, the contract mattered very little to me anymore.

SCARLETT’S POVI watched as Aiden stood up for himself. Being brave against all odds. We all gasped when he said that he wouldn’t be arresting them any longer, knowing that they deserved that arrest, he had been surprising to all of us and even the agents had looked on in disbelief.“You’re sure Mr. Aiden, because we did receive a call that you needed our help getting some people detained, you’re sure that you’re not being held under duress or something like that?” the agent, the one that looked like he was their leader asked, with a questioning glance, as he looked on each of us suspiciously.“No Officer, thanks for your prompt response; but I just made a wrong call due to some confusing series of events, I’m so sorry about that and I apologize,” Aiden said, while trying to look as apologetic as possible.“Alright then Sir, you can always call our office if you feel the need to, we’re always at your service,” The agent leader said, turn

AIDEN’S POVI would be lying if I said that I was surprised by what Pen said, nothing she did seemed to surprise me that much. I had known her for a while and I knew that she did not play by the rule book, but I was glad to have beat her at her own game, it felt extremely refreshing.“you better start explaining yourself, because I have already called the FBI on you and I’m certain you all are not ready to be arraigned for fraud,” I hoped to God that my eyes were portraying exactly how I was feeling. I wasn’t mincing words and I needed them to know that I had all this under control and they were all collectively going to suffer for even trying to sabotage the security of my company.“You all should better start talking because there was no way I was bluffing,”I could see the look of unbelief in the eyes of Charlie Fox and the bewildered look in Pen’s eyes, followed by the tired look in Scarlett.Scarlett was very tire
Surrogate Mother To A Contract Wife Chapter 130
SCARLETT'S POVFor the longest time, I thought I still had a glimmer of hope to hold onto; something small but significant, something that excited the senses even if it burned, something that lingers on in your memory even in the darkness. It was all a facade. In reality, I had nothing. Nothing to hold, nothing to have, nothing to remember, it was all empty, void, and meaningless None of it made any sense, none of it was great, it was all just a sad and lonely facade that I deluded myself into thinking that I had... I had nothing… I watched as Aiden tried to lie his way out of what I had just heard. He had thought me to be a fool all these while I couldn't stand the betrayal that came from knowing all of these. I can't believe Aiden spoke about me in a dehumanizing manner to this lady of all people. At this point, I could say I greatly preferred Odessa sneering at me, not this girl who stood in front

AIDEN'S POV "Don't talk to me like I'm a child, " Scarlett said. It took me aback and paused me in my tracks. I had a blend of mixed emotions in that moment and I think what I felt the most was pride. I was beyond proud of Scarlett for standing up for herself, but I took a good look at Pen and I just knew that Scarlett might have bitten a little more than she can chew. "What did you just say? " Pen asked while advancing towards Scarlett. I sensed a lot of drama unfolding. Should I stop it? Maybe I should. But am I going to stop it? I don't think so. I'm going to grab my imaginary popcorn and just watch the whole thing unfold. "I said you should stop talking to me like a child, " Scarlett said, even more defensively. She stood her ground and refused to back down to pressure. She was being resilient and I saw a boldness in her eyes that I

SCARLETT'S POVI watched in utter dismay as the events unfolded in my very eyes. I had felt tremendously nervous to break the news and to top it off, I had to do the revelation in front of all the peering eyes. My nervous radar shot up terribly and I didn't know if I was happy that it wasn't Aiden and I alone, or I was nervous that it was in front of all these people.The whole thing just made me confused and nervous at the same time, I honestly didn't know what to do or how to feel and yet I watched the conversation that ensued amongst them. The back-and-forth that happened between Penelope, Aiden, Odessa, and Charlie Fox was one that I watched with mixed emotions. What truly became of me after they agreed? Did I have anything to win in this situation? I was going to be at the losing end no matter what happened and it just made me wonder what exactly would become of me. However, the e

AIDEN’S POVIt almost felt like I didn’t hear what Scarlett had said for a moment, and for that, I felt lost and utterly alone. I questioned myself on how on earth I had gotten it all wrong.Did I do something I shouldn’t have?Why did she feel the need to lie to me for so long?And why on earth did it feel like everyone else knew except for me?“Scarlett, what did you say?” I proceeded to ask very slowly. “I said I am pregnant,” she repeated.“When did you find out?” I asked in the smallest of voices, I needed to know for how long I had been in the dark. It at least made sense to know for how long I have been in the dark and for how long she has been lying to me.“Aiden, do we have to have this conversation right now?” Scarlett asked with her eyes glistening with tears, she looked like she was about to cry and I didn’t know if I cared as much.I needed the truth and I needed to know how long
