Vanessa's POV

My legs trembled as I stepped through the fields towards our house, with the newly signed copy of the surrogacy contract in my hands. It all felt so surreal. I was just returning from the meeting with Mr. Darnell’s lawyer, and he had fully explained to me all I needed to know about being a surrogate for a demanding man like Mr. Darnell.

There were so many strict rules.

Everything was regulated. Mr. Darnell was hiring me a nutritionist, a chiropractor, masseuse, a pregnancy exercise trainer to keep me fit during pregnancy, a beautician -because he wanted his surrogate to look good always and a ton of other staff members that would be attending to me and only me.

And my main nurse was Trinity.

I at least understand that part, she could not let any other nurse get close enough to test me in this early stage of the pregnancy, because the truth could leak. Because I’m not supposed to be pregnant yet, until after IVF when they put Mr. Darnell’s sperm inside me.

But when my pr

    Vanessa's POVThe man was desperate, and offering a huge amount of money, collectively worth millions, to the surrogate that can carry his baby. I had told Estelle.Well, it was not technically a lie. Mr. Darnell seemed to be in a hurry to get me pregnant for some undisclosed reason, and the money was good. After all he was billionaire, what’s a few more expenses to him?Estelle sidled closer, peering at the contract papers in my hands. She looked back up at me with raised eyebrows. “So? How did it go?”I nodded. “I successfully signed the contract. By tomorrow, I’ll get the procedure done, and I’ll be pregnant. Then, I can get the money I need.”Estelle stared at me for a moment and crossed her arms. “There’s no going back now that you’ve signed the contract. But honestly, Nessa, I feel like surrogacy just isn’t for you. You could have become a stripper, maybe? After all, you can dance.” She sighed. “I’ll support you, of course, but in that man’s house… I just don’t know how I will b

    Vanessa's POVEstelle laughed at my reaction, “I’m just messing with you!” I glared at her. “Hey, I’m not gold-digging. I’m just trying to earn money to pay off some debts.” I don’t know why I kind of took that joke personal , but I suspected that it was because “gold-digging” kind of described what it was I was really doing.I was lying to a bunch of rich people just because I desperately needed money. But what I needed the money for was important to I and Mom’s life. My actions were justifiable. “I know. I know.” She bumped her shoulder against me playfully. “But honestly, I would not mind if someone called me a gold-digger. Because I mean, that’s kind of what I do. My job as a bartender barely pays my bills, so I just let men do all of that for me, while leading them on with my pretty face. So? Nothing wrong. We have to survive.”“You seem to have a natural survival talent though. The moment you decide to do something to change your situation, you got the city’s most eligible Bi

    Rodri's POV“We just closed the deal, Sir.” Gina’s voice came from the other end of the call. “Our new clients are eager to meet you in person.”“Fix them an appointment, and let me know when it is.” I ordered, with a hand resting on the sleek black wheel of my Ferrari. “Yes, sir.” Gina said and the call ended.I let out a slow breath, leaning deeper into the leather seat. I had been closing a lot of deals, even more than usual, gathering as much clientele as I could, because I needed to fucking prove to my old man that giving my fucking rights to Benson would be a gross mistake.Child or no child.Pregnancy or no fucking pregnancy.Sure, I would give him his grandchild. But any smart businessman would know never to depend on only one solution. Apart from giving the chairman a baby, I had the largest solo network of connections and influential clientele under my name, in the whole of Dolphin Group. Father should fucking know that if he replaced me with Benson, he would fucking lose.

    Rodri “Fasten your seatbelt.” I told her, easing the Ferrari around slowly. She fumbled around with the seatbelt, but did not seem to be able to get it fastened for some reason. I paused and glanced at her in exasperation, before my eyes fell on her hands.And I realized that her hands were shaking terribly.What in the fucking hell happened to her in that alleyway?“Miss Sterling.” I said. She looked up at me, holding eye contact for a moment, before she suddenly looked away. “Did someone attack you out there?” I asked, suspiciously.Her eyes widened at the question. Then she coughed lightly, fumbling over her words before she let out an awkward laugh. “What? M-Mr. Darnell, it was not like that at all… “I stared at her. “You have signed that contract. You are my responsibility till our contract ends. Fucking tell me and I’ll deal with it. I don’t want anything to endanger my fucking child. I have to keep you safe for this procedure to be successful.”She just shook her head, saying

I stepped out of the car and closed the door, walking over her. “Rodri?” She asked, her voice going a bit breathless ad she looked me over. Her jewelry glittered around her chubby arms as she raised them up to her glistening lips. “Oh my, that young lady is so lucky. She got a good one…” Her eyes moved down my body again and I arched my eyebrow at her imperceptibly.At my silence, she quickly caught herself and let out a small, bashful laugh. “Pardon me, young man. An old lady like me likes to appreciate what she sees.”“Where is she?” I asked monotonously.She gave a small smile. “You’re so worried about your girlfriend, aren’t you?” She batted her eyes with a teasing smile. “Come with me.”I followed her into the restaurant. It was small and cozy, unlike the type of restaurant I knew Trinity liked to visit. There were a few customers at the table, but the old lady

    Trinity's POVAfter I kissed him, Rodri had given me a dead look, and simply said. “Don’t play games.” Then he hooked his hands I under me and raised me up into his arms. I smiled indulgently, resting my head against his chest possessively. “I’m not playing games, Rodri.” I said. Which of course, was a lie.I was a master at playing everyone necessary, in a bid to win the game of getting my best life. Even down to the little fever I had, was all a part of my game. My master plan.He carried me through the garage and up to the elevator, ignoring my attempts to start a conversation. I gave up for now, smiling quietly to myself. Sure, I had really developed a fever as an effect of the IVF procedure I had secretly prepared and carried out on myself , but I did not use any drugs to treat it yet, on purpose to lure Rodri here.Since I was feverish, not dangerously so, Rodri would probably not be able to be a complete asshole to me in this state. I would pretend to be absolutely helpless, s

    Vanessa's POV“What’s wrong?” Estelle asked, setting the cutlery down on the table. “You have been so quiet ever since you came back from the store.”I glanced up at her, then tucked a strand of my hair away from my face with a small smile. “Actually… it’s nothing. The cab broke down, and I had to walk to the store. That’s why I took so long. But it’s fine. Let’s just eat.” I changed the topic.I did not want to bother Estelle by telling her what that thug almost did to me in that alleyway.And that the person who saved me and almost hit me with his car at the same time, was the billionaire I was supposed to be working for.The shock, embarrassment and panic I felt was not something I wanted to relieve.Estelle gave me a look, then shrugged. “Alright.

    Vanessa's POVI had changed into the hospital gown, and cleaned up in preparation for the “IVF procedure” I was about to undergo right now. The facilities here in Dolphin hospital was already state-of-the-art, plus, I was the surrogate of the boss, so that meant I was being treated like a golden egg.Or more realistically, the goose that laid the golden egg.Doctor Ryan, along with some other hot, attractive looking doctors in scrubs, stepped into the room where I was sitting, waiting for Trinity to usher me into the lab.“Hello, Miss. Sterling.” Doctor Ryan greeted with curtsey. “Do you need anything, before you begin your procedure?”I gave a polite smile, glancing awkwardly at the hot doctors flanking him as I answered. “I’m all good, doctor. I already did all the preps and I’m ready to go.”He nodded. “That’s good to hear.” He said, then he suddenly added, “Your meds? Have you been administered a shot yet?

    Vanessa’s POVRodri walked out of the bathroom with water dripping from his head down his body and I just sat in the bed and watched him clean his body with the towel.A freaking towel touching my man’s body? Parts that should exclusively belong to me.I made a mental note of getting rid of that towel as I tiptoed to where he was standing and grabbed his nipples from behind.“Babe…” he turned to me and I immediately took one nipple with my mouth and the other with my hand.Immediately his moans filled the room as he grabbed a handful of my hair in ecstasy.I raised my head to look at his face and stole my lips with his. Kissing and sucking my tongue like his life depended on it.He ripped off my transparent nightwear and started sucking my breast.I threw my head backwards, giving him full access to my body. He pushed me till my back was against the wall then he raised one of my legs up and inserted a finger inside me.“You’re wet baby… you’re wet for me.”“Ohhh.. yes.. just for you.”

    Estelle’s POV “Mo, this is not the way to the hospital.” I said as Moses drove through a very unfamiliar route. “You didn’t believe me when I said we were going to the hospital to see those kids. Did you?” I gave him a questioning glare. “Come on babe, don’t you think it’s too late to go to a hospital to look for kids you don’t even know personally?” “So…” I was still glaring at him and it somehow seemed funny to him as he laughed like he just heard the joke of the century. “I’m sorry babe but I was pulling your legs.” “I thought you wanted to go to the hospital to be sure I wasn’t lying to you.” “Why will I ever doubt you?” He placed a hand on mine while still concentrating on the road. “I will never doubt you babe. I trust you and I love you.” My glare slowly turned into a little smile with puppy eyes. “Stop it Moses. It’s so cringey.” “I can’t stop loving you so you have to manage my cringiness.” “Is there any word like that in the dictionary?” I asked, la

    Rodri’s POV I didn’t believe I’d feel the way I felt when I saw Benson at the hospital looking all pale and white. It was the doctor's assurance and Vanessa’s support that helped me overcome that day and the other days that followed till he became well again. “I’m ready babe.” Vanessa’s voice dragged my strayed attention. I got up and gave her a forehead kiss as we left the bedroom together. We went to Rainn’s bedroom to see him and his grandma that was always with him. “Morning mom.” Vanessa and I chorused. Vanessa turned to me and smiled, giving me a slight tickle on my waist. “You know you are the overly ticklish one and you’re looking for trouble.” I whispered in her ear and she giggled in response. Rainn chuckled too in his cradle like he could hear what I was saying to his mother. I walked to where he was, carried him and started throwing him up. His laughter filled the room giving me a kind of satisfaction I never thought I’d ever have. I gave him a ki

    Estelle’s POV After that remarkable night with Moses, I woke up to my head on his firm chest and his strong arms around my body. It was the best night of my life. Though since then I’ve been wondering what we really were and if he was feeling the same way I was feeling. I could only hope I wasn’t losing myself easily again. The sound of my phone ringing dragged back my attention. And as expected, the caller was Moses. “Hello dreamboat, how is my pookie bear doing?” Typical of Moses he’s always having new cute names for me. “Mo…” I knew I sounded exhausted, but I should have controlled it because the man I was talking to would freak out. “Why are you sounding this way? Still at work? Haven’t you closed for the day? Aren’t they…” “Calm down Mo, don’t stress about it. I’m good.” “We both know you’re not.” “Well it’s because I’m mis…” I almost told him I was missing him. I heaved a sigh We weren’t officially together so I didn’t want to seem like I was despera

    Vanessa’s POV “Ms Trinity Seaman, you’re found guilty of all the charges against you, therefore, you’re hereby sentenced to ten years imprisonment with hard labor.” The judge ruled the case against her and hit the gavel on the bench. I couldn’t help but notice the look of horror on Trinity’s face when the judgment was made. I saw regrets, fear and pains written all over her. I wished I could turn back the hand of time and not go to her for an abortion. But which other way would I have met Rodri? “My baby…” was the last word I could read from her lips as the prison officers dragged her out of the courtroom. Rodri’s grip tightened on my hand and I turned to see him giving me a reassuring smile. “It’s not your fault babe. You didn’t tell her to try to poison me or drug dad and try to have his child. She doesn’t deserve your pity.” I blinked back the tears that were threatening to fall off my eyes. “What about her child?” I asked him as we walked out of the courthouse. “

    Trinity’s POV The entrance of the cheap driver into the interrogation room destabilized me for a split second. I thought he already confessed to Angela and her husband what we had that night and I mentioned him out of impulse, which I was already starting to regret. I didn’t want to say that but I was at a dead end, I needed to get myself off the mess I was in. Though I still couldn’t believe the results of the DNA tests Angela threw at me proved whatever she claimed. The cheapskate driver’s hands started shaking as he tried in vain to open the door and leave. “It’s him what?” Rodri scoffed. I could see the confusion on his face mirror on his parents face. But Vanessa kinda looked indifferent, like she knew what the next thing I’d say. Ugh! I hate this bitch and how highly she thinks of herself now that she has Rodri. I hate her so much that I wish she’d just fall down and die at this moment! “If the result of the DNA test says the child is not a Darnell, which I st

    Rodri’s POV We got to the hospital to meet Trinity panting like she had just finished a one thousand five hundred meter race. “You!” She pointed at Vanessa as soon as she saw her. “You betrayed me, you went ahead and fell in love with him against your own words! I will make you regret it.” “Sure you will after telling us.. no, after telling the world how you got pregnant and tried to pin the bastard on my son and husband by drugging and having sex with him.” Mom threw the result of the DNA tests she did at Trinity’s face. Trinity paused momentarily then took a deep breath. “Who.. how.. you…” She was obviously flustered by mom and how her secret got exposed. “Who told me and how did I know?” Mom fired at her. The door opened and two police officers walked in. “Miss Trinity Seaman, you are under arrest for…” “You can’t arrest me…” “I’ll advise you to remain silent for anything you say might be used against you in the court of law. “What about my son, what would becom

    Rodri’s POV “I’m coming with you.” Vanessa said as she entered the bathroom after I came out. I would have stubbornly gone to see mom last night after dads call if not for the unexpected rain that showed up suddenly and Vanessa used the opportunity she had to give me a good blow job that if not for much self control, I would have fucked her silly. I saw my face turning red in the mirror. I wasn’t a baby and it wasn’t even the first time I was given a blow job and truth be told, it wasn’t the best I’d ever had but somehow I found myself blushing at the thought of it. “And why is your face red?” I didn’t need to turn to know it was Vanessa. And she was in her birthday suit. The fuck was going on in her silly mind? She didn’t even look like someone that just delivered a child, if not for the little scar on her stomach, no one would know she was ever pregnant. “You’re beautiful...” I heard myself say without my knowledge. She came to me, stole a kiss an

What in the name of cheesiness?“Doesn’t matter, I won’t forgive you for lying to me.”He drove to one side of the road and pulled over.
