"Since you're the one who took away Vivian's chance to be a mother, you're going to have a child and give it to her."
My eyes went wide. "Stewart, do you hear how insane you sound?"
"You owe a debt, you pay it back. Simple as that!"
For her, he'd lost all reason. He truly was desperate in his love for this woman.
A laugh tore out of me, so violent my whole body shook.
Then, quietly, I lowered my eyes. "Fine. You got what you wanted."
I didn't miss the flash of triumph that crossed Vivian's face.
Stewart scoffed and produced a surrogacy contract.
It wasn't even legally enforceable. He actually thought my signature would make it binding.
Black ink on white paper.
"Can I go now?"
Stewart took the signed contract, then flicked a glance to the side. His bodyguards closed in around me.
My heart dropped. "Stewart, what else do you want?!"
"Vivian's been waiting for this wedding for a long time. Nothing is going to go wrong." He said it like it was the most reasonable thing in the world. "After the ceremony tomorrow, I'll let you go."
I was thrown into the Delgado family's basement. My head struck the concrete floor, and everything went black.
