The Billionaires Mistress

Chapter 7

Ethan’s P.O.V

I was sleeping in a sound and heavenly sleep when suddenly I felt the urge to throw up so I ran straight

to the toilet and emptied the content of my stomach.

I looked up to see a shadow behind me.

“Honey is it the morning sickness again.“A high pitched voice said, from behind me and I turned to see

Diana.

" Diana how the hell can it be morning sickness I’m not pregnant ...” I roared, rolling my eyes. and she

patted my shoulder very gently.

I walked to the sink and splattered water on my face, I then took a glance at myself in the mirror and

saw my stomach was huge.

My eyes widened at how hideous my image was, I was in a dirty, baggy t-shirt along with baggy shorts, Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

my hair looked like I have not brushed it or showered it for month’s and acne practically covered my

whole face. I did not want to go back to those horrid days as a teen.

“Oh goodness no no no ahhhh ahhhh this cannot be happening, “I yelled, walking around the bathroom

with my feet barely carrying me.

“Don’t stress honey it’s not good for the babies.“She whispered, patting my stomach gently.

What the fuck did she say, babies? Damn, how many are there?

" No no no no no, ” I yelled backing away from her touch but she stepped closer so I stepped back

eventually hitting the wall.

I awoke and sweat was dripping down every inch of my body.

I got up and quickly ran to the mirror to observe my image and I wasn’t pregnant. I still had my eight

pack, there were no pimples on my skin and my dark brown hair was still glowing.

Thank goodness.

I walked back to my bed but right before I can sit I heard rapid knocking on the door.

“Open up... open up.” A voice yelled as the knocking continued.

“What’s wrong?“I asked, yawning as I opened the door.

" Your sister Mary she got an asthma attack.“My mother explained, with her eyes centered on the

ground.

" What?” Was all I could say.

I was in shock she was perfectly fine last night. How on Earth did this happen?

“Ok, ok ok I’m coming. I’m coming, just let me change.” I said as she walked out and I closed the door. I

glanced at the time, two thirty am’ and then glanced at my bed, Diana was still sleeping and I didn’t

want to wake her peaceful slumber.

So I walked into my closet put on a plain white t-shirt, jeans, and Nike running shoes. If it was a normal

day I would have taken my time but I was in a rush. I grabbed my iPhone and ran out.

I took the first car in sight which was the Cadillac Escalade I hoped in and my mother sat in the

passenger’s seat.

" What caused this to happen, mother?” I asked, clenching my right fist so hard my veins popped out?

" We were.....uh talking and.....um suddenly sh.....um began hyperventilating.“She sighed stuttering and

it was quite obvious she was hiding something because she didn’t answer my question.

" Mother I asked the damn cause not how?“I yelled, glaring at her and she avoided to make any eye

contact with me.

Who the hell was she fooling a five-year-old I knew asthma attacks just do not just occur out of the

blue.

“Mom tell me the truth or the whole surrogate shit will be over with here and now, ” I demanded

knowing she would eventually splurge.

“She overheard the doctor and I talking about the surrogate mother and she asked if your father knew?

I, of course, told her no and she threatened to tell him if I didn’t go back on the idea. She says it will

make you miserable.“She said still not looking me in the eye.

She was hiding something I knew that for sure because her story didn’t add up one bit but I decided to

go with it for Diana’s sake.

" I will talk to her once she’s better.”

Rivers P.O.V

It’s been hours since my brother fainted and now I was laying next to him waiting for him to wake up.

I’ve been noticing a bunch of nurses walk in to perform tests on my brother.

I want to ask what they are for but fear stops me every time I gain an inch of courage.

I would tell myself it couldn’t be that bad right I mean a lot of kids faint for numerous reasons but then

again that pessimistic side of me just took over always placing dreadful ideas in my head.

After what seemed like years but only hours the doctor asked to see me.

“Hi, I’m Dr.Carson. I’m one of the main neurosurgeons at this hospital, I’m here to talk to you about

your brother’s condition.“A middle-aged, red-haired women spoke in a rather calm but hopeless tone.

“My name is River, ” I replied, with sweat literally dripping down my neck but I also tried to appear calm

and collected.

" Aiden’s blood works and CT scans show he has Ependymoma it’s a brain tumor that arises from the

ependyma, a tissue of the central nervous system.Through various tests, we found out Aiden’s tumor is

located within the skull. “My heart began to race.” Ependymoma does not tend to spread to other parts

of the body but that doesn’t mean we should take it lightly.Aiden will need surgery because it will affect

his life on a daily basis.”

My mind was only registering one thing.I could lose him. He can leave me. Where in the world was I

going to get money for my mom’s lawyer and my brother’s surgery?It was going to take a miracle for

me to be able to afford both.

" How much is the surgery?“I asked as she picked up a paper and handed it to me.

“It’s an estimated cost of about a hundred fifty thousand beside’s radiation, chemotherapy as well as a

clinical trial in order to keep an eye on the cancer which will add up to over two hundred thousand.“She

said, looking down at the file.

Something in me just popped. I couldn’t take it any more endless tears began to make there way down

my cheeks.

I walked out of the hospital in hope of gaining some fresh air and a way to solve this hell that fell on top

of my shoulders out of nowhere.

I sat on the bench wiping my tears.

" I need that money and quick, ” I mumbled to myself without noticing the mid-aged women taking a

seat next to me.

All I could do was stare in mid-air like an idiot.

I should have ran for my life right when the women sat next to me but hey I was quite naive at the time.

I sort of blame it on the fact that I’m only twenty one with little to no experience with manipulative

people.

" You need money, ” She smirked, furrowing an eyebrow?

“Yes, but why is it any of your concern?” I grimaced, glaring at the women in hope of her reading my

expression and leaving me alone.

“I’m going to jump straight to the point. I need you to sleep with my son in order to carry our family heir

and I will pay you half a million before you carry my grandchild and half a million after the baby is in my

son’s hands.” At first, the thought of slapping this lady silly crossed my mind but the condition I was in

kind of kept me restrained.” You will hand over the baby and you can not what so ever come back.“She

forced a smile.

“Ok.” Was all I could say.I was an idiot. Stupid and dumb but I was desperate so I had to.

“We’re going to act as if the medical procedure at the hospital ran smoothly so my son’s wife will not

suspect a thing.“She said, ever so blandly and I just rolled my eyes.

“Why can’t I carry their baby as originally intended, “I asked, curiously?

“Not that it concerns you but she can’t produce an egg at all. I will see you Monday at nine am.“She

said, handing me a card than walking away.

Ethan’s P.O.V

Today was the day, of course, I hated that Diana always got her way but I was also happy that I might

have a kid.

My mother, Diana and I were at the doctor’s office waiting for the girl my mother mentioned.

After a while, a familiar face walked our way and I remembered it was that same girl from the gathering.

She was a charm I had to admit and what kept me from actually kissing her plump and luscious lips

was the ring on my left finger.

I had to tell myself this constantly.

“Hi,” She said, with a crooked smile.

I could tell she was surprised to see me and I was too.

“Hello, this my wife Diana Scott and I’m sure you already know my mother, ” I said, glaring at my

mother.

" Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Scott.“She replied, shaking Diana’s hand than mine.

I could tell she was nervous by the way she would avert eye contact from time to time.

" Please call me Ethan.” After a while, they called our names one by one and we all took turns going in.

A while later the doctor told us everything worked out ok and we should find out if Rivers pregnant in a

few weeks.

" Ethan I need to talk to you.“My mother said, glaring at me.

" Diana go home and take River with you.” I beamed, staring at them both.

She smiled replying, ” Ok.” She kissed me on the cheek and they both left.

We both went to the hospital cafeteria to talk.

" Ethan it did not go as planned the doctor said Diana can not produce a single egg.” She sighed

burying her head in her hands.

" What? I thought the doctor just clearly stated everything went fine, as planned?” I asked, anger

beginning to rise within me.

Oh great, that’s just what I need.

“I told him to say that because if we told Diana I doubt her reaction would be a positive one.“She shook

her head.

This could not be happening. This wasn’t happening

" Mother there is no baby eventually when we go do the sonogram she’s going to know, ” I said,

aggravated by my mother’s actions.

" No, she will not you and River are going to bring me a grandchild into this world.“She said making me

furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

My eyes widened at the realization.

“Oh my God Mom please don’t tell me you set this up. Please tell me you didn’t.”

She rolled her eyes.“So I paid off the doctor to give Diana false hope.”

“Your saying it as if it’s not a big deal,” I replied while running my hand through me hair in frustration.

“I had to because there’s no other way for you to have a biological child Ethan.“She flipped her jet black

hair to side.

“No. No.I’m not cheating on my wife,“I stated and turned to leave.

" Ok, Ethan if you do not have this baby I will expose your whore of a wife.She would not be able to go

out to the public without being harassed.“She gritted on her teeth.

I could not believe she was threatening me.

“Are you really threatening me?“I asked, in shock.

" Call it what you want Ethan once you hold you’re son in your hands you will see how good the feeling

is, ” Rage was overpowering me.“Just one night.“She said putting her index finger up.

“When?”

“She is in the guest house.”

After that pleasant threat by my mother, I went to go drink a couple of glasses of bourbon and then

headed to the guest house.
