All Chapters of Xavier's Surrogate: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“After the procedure is done, we’ll wait for about two to four weeks before doing a test to know if it was successful or not. It won’t hurt and it won’t affect your health in anyway,”A week later, Halle was in Horacio’s office in a loose fitting hospital gown. She could hear her heart pounding so loud in her ears and his words didn’t do much to calm her down.She felt a hand squeeze hers.Greta had come from where she was following a story in Mexico the second Halle had told her she would be having a procedure today.Halle was scared out of her wits the second a date was official ad she began rethinking everything but her best friend reassured her and told her she’d be there every step of the way.What surprised Halle was that Martha was in Horacio’s office as well, sitting on the waiting seat on the other side of the room.Halle had to admit, she never expected Martha to be there seeing as everyone seemed to make it obvious that they knew Halle and Xavier had a falling out a

A week after Halle’s and Martha’s talk which ended on quite an awkward note, Xavier returned from Italy. Halle didn’t realize it at first. She spent all morning in her room after breakfast, studying for her final exams and trying to wrap her head around how she had ended up in such a situation in the first place. Right, firstly she had let a murderer into her home and then let him stay with her for three days, then she agreed to be the surrogate of the world’s most powerful family because of her desperation for money, now Halle was here, being told to be with a man she was attracted to. Sure it didn’t seem complicated on the outside, it was actually such an easy decision, just be with him since he made her happy but doing that would also be going against the morals she had grown up with. He was a killer. A man whose actions were so cruel but he still did not see them as such. What was worse was that Halle was running out of reasonable reasons why she shouldn’t accept Martha’s fa

Xavier sat in his sleek black car, his hands gripping the leather steering wheel tightly. Beads of sweat dotted his forehead as the adrenaline coursed through his veins. He had just finished interrogating another lackey from the Delgados, making sure to cause the man unimaginable pain while also extracting the vital information he needed to finally bring those bastards down once and for all, to prove to them that he would forever be ahead, The Stone family will always be on top! Xavuer has already accepted that was running out for him. His terminal illness was a constant reminder of his mortality, a reminder that he had to set everything in place faster before his child would be born, his child that would be in no way introduced to this life except if it’s mother chooses that path.And the Halle Xavier knew would not choose such a path for her child.This was why she was the best candidate.The only woman he could trust with such responsibility.As he drove through the city, Xav

As they walked out of the restaurant, Halle leaned on Xavier's arm, enjoying the warmth that seeped through his clothes and his addictive scent that seemed to relax her. The cool night air brushed against her face, offering a refreshing breeze that calmed the churning in her stomach.They strolled along the quiet streets in a comfortable silence, Halle could hears Xavier’s soft breaths, nothing needed to be said between them. Halle took deep breaths, feeling the nausea slowly dissipate.Xavier glanced at Halle, his concern still evident in his eyes. "Are you feeling any better now?" he asked gently, his liquid brown gaze resting on her skin like the wind’s caress.Halle nodded, her smile more genuine, "Yeah, I feel much better, thank you. I guess I should’ve slowed down with the food," she replied sheepishly, now realizing just how fast she was scarfing down her food like a savage. No wonder he kept smiling at her, she probably became a source of amusement to him again.Xavier chu

“The procedure was a success!” Horacio chuckled, patting the back of Halle’s palm as he took a step away from the bed.His words made Halle realize just how much of an idiot she had been the whole time!The symptoms were right there and it was all very obvious but yet she didn’t even realize it until Horacio said it to her face, or maybe she did but she was just too scared to admit it.She’s pregnant. Halle turned to the man who was seated next to her, her other hand was in his grasp and his eyes bored deep in to hers like they belonged there. It just felt so right.In his eyes were countless emotions that Halle couldn’t identify but she’s knew that the gentleness in those eyes of his made her knees weak although she was not standing.“it worked,” Xavier said in a low voice, “And you’re sure it worked?” He shifted his almost uncertain gaze to the doctor who was now standing over them at the edge of the bed. “Come on Xavier,” Horacio rolled his eyes as he patted the man’s sho
