Daisy's POV

Nervous is the word for how I feel right now. Even though I agreed to this, I don't know if this is right.

The doctor is examining me and all of a sudden, she rises, gazing at me intently. I have undergone a series of tests and I think this is the last.

I can practically hear the sound of my heartbeat and I wonder if the doctor is just not paying close attention to it or maybe she isn't hearing it.

"Do you have any objections to taking a lot of medications?" She questions with a raised brow, watching something on an unrecognizable instrument.

I don't know if she is reading from there or if she is casually asking me the question.

I think about the question again and I realize I don't understand what she means.

"What do you mean?" I sit upright, my brows furrowed in confusion.

    Alex's POVDaisy is an amusing piece. She acts naive sometimes and then other times, she seems to be one hell of an experienced woman, not a college student.I have no idea what made her ask me such a question but I am sure her inquisitiveness is involved.Maybe she doesn't trust me yet but that isn't even needed. This contract is for a short while. The baby should be here in 9-10 months and that is when we can part ways. It doesn't matter if she trusts me or not.Doing this with her means I am trusting her with my baby. I have been thinking about her question since I dropped off at the office. I didn't reply to her, though. I only chuckled because it was too hilarious.Why would I be doing this if I have a wife? Why will I even invite her to come to stay in the mansion with me if I already have a wife?Not having a girlfriend or a wife is the problem here. I want someone to not only take that position just so my parents can look at me from a different perspective, but also have a c

I was about to question him on what he meant before the car jeered its way into the big courtyard revealing the grand mansion.Alex gets down from the car before I can process the fact that not only is Alex wealthy but his parents are too and they will expect a lot from the woman he has brought home to introduce as his girlfriend and future baby mama.He told me all about how he wanted me to pretend to be his girlfriend. I accept the terms because I see no reason why I shouldn't. I already agreed to carry his baby, she could hurt more than birthing a child and leaving that child to a total stranger.Suddenly, fear grips my entire existence and my hands tremble.The car door swings o

    Alex's POVThey are watching our every move. Every gesture. We finish eating and the maids appear to clear out the remaining dishes and our almost empty plates.I notice Daisy barely touched her meal. She was just picking at it and I'm sure it is a result of her apprehension."What is your name, baby?" My mother questions after downing the remaining content of her fruit juice, her eyes brimming with delight as she stares at Daisy.My hand is no longer on hers. I only do something whenever my parents' gaze is fixed on us."My name is Daisy", she replies with a smile and I do the same. "Daisy? Wow, what a beautiful name for a beautiful lady", Mother compliments and she chuckles a little while my Father nods in approval.I know I made the right choice. Her beauty was hidden. I didn't see the beauty when we first met. It was concealed by her tears, ruined makeup, and disheveled hair, yet I wanted her.While shopping two days ago, when I picked interest in one of the dresses which I thou

Extremely unfair.I am scared. Meeting with his lovely parents and seeing how much they love me already isn't doing any good to put a stop to my fears.His silence is only adding to it.He lied. On my behalf. We didn't discuss this. I might be the one at the receiving end and also the one to benefit most from this deal but I deserve to know certain things such as this.Why did he lie? Why didn't he inform me beforehand that he was going to lie to his mother about my real identity?What if they find out, how will I defend myself? Will they continue liking me even if they find out everything was lies?I sigh heavily and look out of the window as the car enters through the gate into his mansion.

I am still laying on my bed, unlike the other time when I fell off the bed.That was probably because I was hungover from the previous night's drink.

When he drives the car out of the company's parking lot, I place a call to the doctor as fear begins to grip me with different questions popping up in my head.Is she in pain? Is that why she is crying? Does it hurt a lot?Did something happen?Agnes picks up the call at the fifth ring. "Hello, Alex."Without beating about the bush, I go straight to the point of my call. "I just got a call from home now. The head maid said Daisy is crying."Silence ensues in contradiction to what I am expecting. I am thinking she will gasp or shout and ask us to come to the hospital immediately."Are you there?" I ask quickly."Yes. Why is she crying?""I have no idea," I shrug as if she can see me. "She hasn't been eating too like you said she would.""Is that why she is crying?""I don't know, Agnes. Do you think she is fine? Should we come to the hospital right away? Will she be ok?
