His surrogate

Chloe's POV After finding Kitty unconscious on the couch, I panicked and quickly took her to the hospital even though I knew what she was suffering from. The illness was getting worse and worse each and every day .Since I wasn't financially stable, it was taking some time for me to raise money for her operation. I sat outside her hospital room as I waited for the doctor to tell me how she was doing. The moment I heard the door open, I straightened my dress and stood up. “How is she doing doctor?”I asked “She is stable.At least for now Chloe, but like I told you last time we need to operate on her as soon as possible and right now if it is not done within 24 hours, I'm afraid you're going to lose her” Dr Jean said to me. I found myself sitting down again and a stray tear left my eyes since I had nothing to reply to the doctor.It's not like I couldn't beg, I had done that for more than a thousand times but they couldn't help me without money.‘What was I going to do now’. I had been looking for money for surgery for the past 6 months and now I was left with just 24 hours, ‘how was I going to deal with it? ’ ‘where was I going to start from now’ I stood up I went to check on my sister. By the time I reached inside, she had woken up. “Hey, I'm glad you're awake” I said forcing a smile cause I didn't want to scare the little girl. “Hello Chloe, I'm just so tired.It hurts so bad sometimes, but I don't want to die yet” Kitty said to me “You said that you would find a way right?” she asked Those questions just got my eyes flooding once again.I didn't know what to say to the little girl. “What's wrong Chloe, why are you crying? am I going to die?”she asked “No no kitty, you're not going to die, just be patient okay?” . “Alright Chloe” “Wait here, I'll go get the money” I assured her. After talking to Kitty, I couldn't give up on her just yet even though I didn't have the slightest idea on where I was going to get the money.I was a big sister at the same time her guardian since our parents died in a car accident. It was just her and me. She was now 10 and I was 11 years older than her.I didn't know where to go for help now since she was the only family I had left and I couldn't lose her either cuz I didn't know how I was going to survive in this world without family.As I walked, I tried to think of what my next move was, it's not like I had something to sell because we didn't have money and no one was going to get me a loan. I had tried talking to the leaders but I hadn't got a chance to meet one. I wanted to see the mayor or the minister for children's affairs but it was always hard for me to see them and security just wouldn't let me meet them. I'm the type of person you would say that was raised properly but at this moment if I got a job of maybe robbing, at the moment I was desperate and I could do it. I was out of options but there was this one brothel I knew about. What they were doing was dirty though the manager had already asked me to join saying I had the perfect figure and a beautiful face that could attract a lot of customers for them. I had been refusing every time he approached me.He had promised a lot of money but all I cared about was my dignity and turned him down but at this moment, there was nothing better than my sister's life. Maybe I could just go there and ask for the money needed for my sister's surgery then work for them to pay my debt but I could tell I was going to sell my soul to those monsters. ‘as long as my sister was alive’ I thought.When the idea popped in my head, I decided to take that route but I didn't realize what was going on around me and before I knew it I was knocked to the ground then I lost my consciousness. James's POV It had become 2 years now since I married Christine but my wife hadn't given me a child. I think I had given her enough time like she had asked but a week ago, the doctor informed her that she couldn't conceive something that broke my heart.I had all the money in the world but I didn't have a child. I needed an heir for our family business. When the news reached my ears, I couldn't say a word but being a supportive wife, Christine held my hand. “ James you don't need to worry, we can still become parents” she said and I looked up at her. “ what do you mean love? You said you cannot give birth” “ I said that but still there is a way out. We ..we..”She started to starter then stopped talking. “we what my love?”I asked “we can get a surrogate” she suggested and I couldn't believe my ears. “You can't be serious Christine. I don't want to have my child with anyone else.I wanted to have a baby with you” “ I know James, we can still do that. The only difference will be that the baby won't have to grow in my belly” she said “We can just combine my egg with your sperm then we would put that in another woman's body.That kid will be mine and yours”. “And you are okay with that?” I asked her “I love you James, a lot and I will do anything in the world to make you a happy man. Even if it means doing that so I'm okay with it” After that conversation, I asked her to give me a week to think about it and I couldn't find any other way other than doing surrogacy like she had suggested. Unfortunately, by the time I had my reply for her, she was already out of the country without even my knowledge for her stupid photo shoot.We had recently been quarreling over this but there was nothing to do since I coated her when she was already a model and seemed to like her career so much. I once suggested that she should start working for our business but she refused saying that her passion was in modeling.What hurt the most was that she wasn't around most of the time and sometimes like today, she always told me when she was already at work without even asking for my permission or at least letting me know. I didn't want to get mad over that again so asked my butler to take me to my family doctor. On our way there, I couldn't get my thoughts off what was happening in my life with my wife. I only got out of my thoughts when I heard our car hit something.‘s*** we had just had an accident’. “Ben, what were you thinking? You just knocked down a girl” I asked my driver. “ I was careful sir. It's the girl that wasn't paying attention.I even tried to stop the accident but it was too late” he replied I quickly carried the girl and he drove to the hospital. As soon as I was there, I asked my doctor to check and work on her.He informed us that she wasn't badly injured except for a few bruises on the legs and arms and that she had got unconscious because she got scared.
