AIDEN’S POVI was scared; scared that I lost her forever. I didn’t realize how scared I was of losing her until last night.She occupied my thoughts; she consumed them.****************************************************************************************“Scarlett, goodness! Where on earth have you been? You left us very worried,” I called out as I hurried to get to her.She just stared back with a blank expression on her face, as I moved on hurriedly to grab her by the hand. Wondering why she looked like she was going to fall off anytime.Scarlett broke down in my arms, just in time as I stretched my hands to catch her. And for some reason, she was freezing.“Don’t you dare touch me,” she slurped through her words.‘Wait, has she been drinking?’ I mumbled in my head.“Scarlett, have you been drinking?” I finally asked, trying to keep

CHAPTER 96SCARLETT’S POVThe alarms blared quite loudly, I had already snoozed it countless times.This time around, I had to finally try to open my eyes. I opened my eyes and I immediately regretted it as the streak of sunlight hit, and the hangover migraine jumped in.My head hurt badly, and my limbs felt very numb; it didn’t help that I didn’t smell so great either, I thought as I caught a whiff of my morning breath and underarms. I needed to get into that shower; I smelled awful.As I made to stand up, my eyes caught the note written on my bedside stand, I picked up the note that read “You should take these drugs and make sure not to get wasted next time. With love, Aiden”, I looked beside the note, and just as the note had implied, there was a glass of water and some aspirin on the desk. I quickly gulped down the water and swallowed the drugs, I was hoping that it would help with the migraine.I hopped into the shower after making sure to put on a Billie Eilish mix on my Spotify

AIDEN’S POVThe text I had seen on Scarlett’s phone last night worried me a lot, I couldn’t wrap my head around what it meant or who the sender was, but I was determined to talk to her as soon as I got off work.I was certain that she had seen me with Pen, and hence, the attitude, I just didn’t want her to hate me or hate herself to the point of allowing herself to get drunk.Anyway, I had to shove that thought aside and focus. I was meeting with Charlie Fox today, a meeting that I wish I had not granted. I sat reflecting on Charlie Fox and the kind of influence he had on me.He grew up with my father; in fact, they used to be childhood friends, and both served in the military together before they grew their respective businesses and became business moguls.They had other friends and belonged to a group of successful business moguls. One of the other men in the said group happens to be Odessa’s fath

SCARLETT’S POVI needed to get dressed as soon as soon as I could because I had plans to be somewhere today.I had scheduled a meeting with my Doctor, and Aiden was not aware of this. It’s been almost a month since I got it, and Aiden and I have been careless a few times after that; I had thrown up in the bathroom while I showered; it could have been the alcohol hangover, but it didn’t feel so.As usual, I got confused as to what to wear, and I needed to plan my exit a bit more carefully this time since I was now being watched, and something in me told me that Aiden must have hired extra security to tail me around. Hell, they could be right behind my room door at this very moment. Sikes!I had to settle for a pretty cute floral dress that lay in my wardrobe; it was a dress with a cute floral pattern and an orange hue; it had a little slit in the front and was an off-shoulder; it looked like something I would wear to the beach or fo

AIDEN’S POVI was in deep thought as we drove into the estate.Scarlett had not been picking my calls and I was getting worried, it turns out that she wasn’t even at home. ‘Damn, that girl really just wants to test my patience all the time’I opened my voice and saw her voice mail, she was mad that she had a couple of escorts.I had spoken to one of them earlier and I was told she was at the hospital, that made me a little worried because why would Scarlett be at the hospital. I hope she's fine. My Dad had summoned me for a meeting, and even though I knew that I didn't want to go, I couldn't help but oblige. I constantly thought about what had transpired between Charlie Fox and I. Were they simply empty threats or was he truly going to go to the extreme? This was all I thought about as I sat in the back seat of the car. It was then I realized that I had been star

SCARLETT’S POV“You're 6 weeks pregnant,” Those exact words echoed in my head, and for some damn reason a pang hit my chest at his first direct acknowledgment of my new maternal status. ‘Pregnant!’‘What do I do with the baby?’‘How about Odessa and Charlie Fox?’‘Should I tell Aiden?’ I thought to myself.‘What should I do?’ I could boldly say that I had never been more confused upon hearing that news than I was right there.“Thank you Doctor,” I said as I grabbed the results, my heart pounding with fear and the realization that I was no longer one person, but two people in one. “You’re welcome Miss”“So, I’ll like you to take your time and process the news because you seemed quite shocked, don’t worry about that, it’s a perfectly normal response that most of my patients go through,” he said, all in a bid to try and relax my nerves, but it certainly wasn’t working.“Thank

AIDEN’S POV I was no longer the little boy my father could boss around and I was glad about that. No longer the little boy who would immediately do his bidding. I mean, I was a grown-up for fucksake. I knew how to get my own things done. I didn’t need his help. I know how to run my own goddamn company. The fear in my heart was evident, but I needed to talk to someone. Pen Her name rang in my head and I immediately picked up the phone to dial Pen’s number. It seamlessly went through. She picked on the first ring. “Atta boy, you beat me to calling, now didn’t you?” her usual chatter voice came on immediately. Pen always seemed like she had no worries and whatsoever to burden herself with. “Well, hello to you too. How are you doing Pen?” “I’m doing okay. You called because you thought

SCARLETT’S POV I’d woken up to the sound of Aiden’s car by the driveway as I kept contemplating in my head on what was to be done.I burdened myself with all of these thoughts as I heard his car pull into the driveway and I heard him slam to the door to his car, followed by heavy footsteps, the kind of footsteps that were particular to just Aidens.“Scarlett, what are you going to do?”A couple of minutes later, Aiden walked into the house, looking with nearly bloodshot eyes as I stayed still staring at him."Hey—” I stuttered, running a hand through my hair. “How was work?" I asked, in a bid to start a conversation, hoping he’d respond as expected.But then he looked me in the eye and for some reason, walked past me without a word. Fresh terror stabbed at me seeing him walk away headed for the stairs that led all the way to his room.‘Seriously, I’m here carrying your baby

AIDEN’S POVThe golden hues of the sun peeped through the windows, preceding the movement of my eyelids as I forced myself awake. I wasn’t always a huge fan of the sunlight and it annoyed me so much to wake up to bright sunny days. As I looked beside me, I saw one of the most gorgeous women to have walked the earth’s surface, she was so beautiful, and the ray of sunlight perfectly hitting her skin simply made her look magnificent.She must have felt my eyes on her because at that moment, she opened her eyes. Confused at first, but quickly smiled when she saw me.“Good morning, Handsome” she slurred lazily as she struggled to keep her eyes awake. “Hello gorgeous, How do you feel today” ‘Wait? When did I become such a lover boy? I had to get my wits together urgently.’She instinctively touched and looked down at her belly with a smile creased on her face as she did.“You

AIDEN’S POVIt felt surreal to me.I never could have conceived the idea that I would one day be getting ready to marry the absolute love of my life.It felt like a little dream come true, a dream that I probably never conceived in my wildest imagination.Yet, I felt nothing but happiness and a sense of fulfillment and happiness as I looked on into the future with a sense of hope and happiness.“I see that you’re having cold feet, Son,” my Dad’s voice came through as he walked into the room.I had been standing right in front of the mirror, trying out solid affirmations and reassuring myself that I had made the right choice for myself and my life.“No Dad. 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.

Of course, it didBut would I pass on the idea of getting married to the absolute love of my life? 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
