Chapter 2 Successfully Conceived
Chapter 2 Successfully Conceived
Once he was done, the man left.
Bianca was exhausted to the point of passing out. She stayed curled up on the bed for a long, long time.
The doctors said it was easier for her to conceive this way.
…
This continued for more nights than she could keep track of. Luke Crawford would come to the mansion every night, no matter how late his work kept him. He never failed to show up.
The middle-aged driver who followed Luke around, Charles Finn, was Faye’s husband. Both of them were experienced in these things, so they really wanted to give their young master a word of advice. These things should be taken slowly! Rushing it would only be unhealthy!
However, their haughty and aloof young master was also known for being a harsh employer with the cold face of a devil. He was famous for being hard to handle!
The couple had no choice but to keep their mouths shut!
They could only watch as that young girl was rendered limp and listless every day thanks to their young master’s energetic demands. She looked like she had all the energy sapped clean out of her. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
This was the last night of the month.
Bianca seriously could not read this man’s approach here. Sometimes he would be gentle, but at other times, he seemed to be determined to cause her pain.
Between this and that, it felt like her body was starting to disobey her too.
Once they were done, the man cleaned himself up and put on an expensive watch, looking like a proper gentleman. He addressed the girl curled up under the covers coolly, saying, “I await the good news.”
With that, he left.
The bedroom fell silent once more.
To Bianca, this stranger, whose name and looks she did not know, was nothing short of horrifying! He seemed to hide within him a monster that had just been released, and that terrified her!
That night, he left the mansion later than usual.
She heard him leave the room and stand outside the mansion. There was then the click of a lighter, sounding especially loud in the empty mansion.
She just had to get up. She just had to sit up and look outside the window, and she would know what he looked like. However, she was afraid that what she saw would be a nightmare…
…
A month later.
The early detection pregnancy test Bianca was holding finally showed two red lines. They were a very deep shade of red.
She had been anxiously waiting for this positive result for the entire month. In the meantime, other than Faye, she had not seen anyone else from the other end of the deal, not even that man.
If she had not managed to conceive in that month, she would have to continue doing those things with that man at night, just like they did last month—
Yet now she finally tested positive for pregnancy! Thank goodness!
She just wanted to deliver this child safely and complete her mission, so she could spend the rest of her life slowly forgetting this harrowing experience.
Everything would one day fade into the past, right?
Once the other party found out that she had successfully conceived, they immediately arranged an intensive check-up routine for her.
When Faye first approached her with the follow-up deal, Bianca had only asked for two things.
Firstly, she wanted to keep going to school as usual until she began to show. Only then would she take some time off from school in preparation for the birth.
Secondly, she wanted to stay in her rental room in the meantime. She felt more at ease there.
She was not used to all that space in the mansion, not in the slightest.
“I’ll have to ask my boss about your requests. After all, the baby in your belly is his child!” Faye instantly turned around and made the call. Standing next to the floor-to-ceiling window high atop the hospital, she recounted Bianca’s two requests to her boss over the phone.
A minute later, Faye ended the call.
“The boss has agreed to your requests.”
Bianca nodded, thanking her somewhat dazedly.
…
That afternoon, once she was back in her rented room, she called the hospital. “Hello, is this Dr. Joyce? May I ask about my dad? How is he?”
“Don’t worry,” the doctor replied. “We received the funds and we’ll have a donor soon enough too. We’re already preparing for the surgery, and it won’t be long!”
“Thanks.” Bianca did not know what else she should say. She had earned both the money and the donor by selling out her own body.
Should she feel glad?
Should she feel devastated?
Neither!
After she hung up, she lowered her head and sprawled herself onto the table, staring into space by herself. A long while later, her tears drenched her lashes nevertheless.
After a pause, she used her palm to rub away the tears that were spelling everywhere.
She then forced herself to smile. Her dad was saved. That was definitely something to be glad about.
…
Five months later.
By now, her stomach was really starting to show.
Faye was fully in charge of handling Bianca’s leave from school.
When the butler left the school, the principal personally walked her to the day, shaking her hand and bidding her goodbye respectfully.
Bianca stood a distance away, feeling a little surprised that someone like the principal had to treat Faye with that much respect. Did that mean Faye’s employer, the child’s father, was really such a hotshot?
Still, Bianca purposely tried not to think about all of this.
Faye walked over to where she was standing next to the bus stop, saying, “Don’t worry. I took time off for you using the excuse that you’re not feeling well. No one knows that you’re pregnant, and we’ll all keep it a secret.”
That put Bianca’s heart at ease.
That afternoon.
Bianca went to the hospital to visit her father.
She was only eighteen this year, yet she was here, pregnant with the child of a man she did not know. There was no way her father, Kevin Rayne, would accept such a thing!
Thankfully, it was currently in the autumn, so she could wear more clothing to hide her bump!
She wore a thin woolen sweater, but her stomach was showing, so she wore a loose hoodie on top of that. At least this way, she managed to hide her figure!
This was the private hospital with the best medical technology and skills in A City.
Bianca arrived at the floor where her father was warded.
She made her way to the room with an air of familiarity, but before she could go in, she heard her stepmother, Jennifer Lee’s voice...
