‘Is Jason unable to help her track down the two people she’s looking for? What happened between her and Jason?’
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Brian looked up and said, “Come in.”
The office door opened, and the secretary led a young Asian woman into the office. “President Hart, the person you wanted to see is here.”
“Okay, you can leave first,” said Brian.
The secretary left the room, and the Asian woman looked anxiously at Brian with a faint look of anticipation on her face.
Brian quietly peered at the person in front of him. She was thin and had long black hair. Her hair was not in a ponytail like when she first met him but a trendy wavy hairstyle.
The woman had exquisite makeup on her face and wore bright red lipstick as if she was trying her best to show off her beauty.
However, in Brian’s opinion, the woman looked better without makeup. It was because the makeup had destroyed her quiet elegant charm, especially her eye makeup. She had almond-shaped eyes similar to Grace, but it was now almost impossible to make out any resemblance after she did all this.
Brian said indifferently, “You don’t have to wear any makeup in front of me. And have you gone through the contract my secretary gave you?”
“Y-Yes,” the woman whispered as she blushed slightly.
“You can tell me if there’s anything you’re dissatisfied with,” he said.
“No, I have nothing to complain about,” the woman said quickly.
“Okay, we’ll go to the lawyer’s firm and sign this contract tomorrow. I’ll find the best gynecologist here to carry out the in vitro fertilization procedure. If there’s any damage to your body, I’ll compensate you as per the contract,” said Brian.
“Well… it doesn’t have to be so troublesome. I can just…” The woman’s face turned a little redder. She was trying to say something but stopped. However, it was clear that she did not want to undergo a medical procedure and wanted to get pregnant in a more traditional way.
After all, it was how she could get more intimate with the man in front of her.
At first, she was driven to a corner by her family’s debt and almost sold herself in a nightclub. However, someone suddenly approached her and told her she could make a fortune if she gave birth to a child through in vitro fertilization to an important man.
Not only would it pay off her family’s debt but it would also be enough for her to live a wealthy life. It was so much better than making a living in a nightclub.
She was intrigued and began to contact the middleman.
She thought the man who wanted her to carry his baby must have some flaws, but the man who appeared before her was a tall, handsome man. Besides, she also secretly found out online that the man was the crown prince of the entertainment industry!
It seemed like a dream that the crown prince wanted to have a baby with her, so she agreed to be his surrogate. She had specially dressed herself up today just so she could climb up the social ladder.
What she wanted was not just to be a surrogate but to be able to take this opportunity to get to the top.
However, to her disappointment, Brian just looked at her indifferently. It was as if he had seen through her conspiracy.
“I’ll repeat myself. I only need a child, and it doesn’t matter who the mother is because I won’t have anything to do with her. The baby will solely be born through IVF, and you won’t have anything to do with them,” Brian said coldly.
The woman’s eyes glimmered. He spoke as if he was just using her as a living tool.
‘Am I just supposed to be a surrogate like what the contract says? I can’t accept it! I finally have a chance to turn my life. around and change my fate. Why would I be willing to settle. for that?’
Looking down, the woman carefully hid her thoughts. “I… I see, Mr. Hart. I won’t have any funny ideas anymore.”
“Then you can leave. Tell the secretary if there’s anything else you need. I’ll send someone to take you to the firm tomorrow,”
said Brian.
Once the woman left the office, he raised his hand and rubbed his brow.
The Hart family needed an heir, after all. He… had no plans to marry any woman other than Grace. Therefore, this was the most direct way to get a child.
He recalled how his mother had looked at him like he was a lunatic when he told her his decision. “You’re never going to marry? Are you going to save yourself for Grace for the rest of your life?”
“I can’t marry someone I don’t love,” he answered his mother.
“Love? Many marriages are without love! What’s more, you can take your time to develop feelings for each other,” his mother said.
He chuckled. “If I had never met Grace, I wouldn’t have minded marrying a woman I didn’t love if she was worthy of the Hart family, provided I didn’t hate her. But Mom, I’ve met Grace, and I know what it’s like to love someone.”
How was he going to spend the rest of his life with a woman he did not love?
His mother did not go on after hearing what he said. She only covered her face and burst into tears. He could not say anything to comfort her.
After losing Grace, he had no intention of ever getting married. However, the Hart family needed an heir, so this might be the best way to get a child who would carry the Hart family’s bloodline.
He could use this child to make it up for his parents. Whether they were male or female, they would inherit all the Hart family’s fortune after he died.
Brian took out a small silver bracelet from his breast pocket. It was the only thing he had that belonged to Grace.
He held the bracelet tightly to his chest, slowly closing his eyes and muttering, “Grace…”
To him, it was a name he would yearn for the rest of his life!
It turned out some mistakes were regrets that could not be remedied in a lifetime!
“What? Lina is in the emergency room?” Grace was shocked when she received a call from Mr. Sweeney and Mrs. Sweeney. “Why is she in the emergency room?”
Mrs. Sweeney said in a panic, “She took a nap after coming home from the community health center where she took her progesterone shot. She felt a little under the weather and threw up after having dinner. She didn’t look right, so we brought her to the hospital pune fainted on the way there. The ER doctor is examining Lina right now, but… I… I’m afraid the doctors here might be experienced. Grace, can you help get a good doctor to save Lina? Lina is pregnant, after all!”
Grace understood Mrs. Sweeney’s concern, of course. She quickly said, “Okay, I understand. I’ll get a doctor right away. Tell me which hospital Lina is in!”
Mrs. Sweeney told her the hospital name, and Grace quickly left the room with her bag, preparing to go to the hospital. She called Jason and explained Lina’s situation.
“Got it. I’ll ask Terrence to contact relevant specialists in +Mason Swansonty to check on Lina!” said Jason.
“Okay, then I’ll head to the hospital to visit Lina first,” said Grace.
