Chapter 2

After Ethan uttered those words, he left without giving Olivia another look. It was just like another business transaction, once the deal was sealed, move on to the other.

Olivia was led to the bedroom by the servant. She was so devastated that the only thing she could do was, to cry her heart out.

She was still in disbelief that her father had actually sold her to be a surrogate. She had done everything she could to help him pay off his huge debts that kept on accumulating, but now…

She had even offended the lecturers by missing classes just so she could have a few extra hours to work. Who would have thought that this will be her payback?

She had been sold just like that, to a total stranger. Not only had he slept with her without her consent, but also it had been her first time. She had always heard her classmates talk about this thing, but given that she was too busy running errands to pay off her father’s debts and earn herself school fees, she has never had time to date.

But she has always envisioned how her first time would be. But now that she had done it with a stranger and she did not have any recollection of it, Olivia felt even sadder.

And that man, he was so rude and uncaring. He had only uttered a few words to her and left her, just like that.

Olivia cried until her voice sounded like a frog croaking. Her throat hurt but she did not want to stop. She wanted to cry until she died.

She resented her greedy father, resented this man that had bought her without her consent, and resented the world for being so unfair to her.

Why had her mom died? If she was still alive, she was certain that she wouldn’t be going through any of this.

Olivia cried until her eyes were completely dry. It was only then that she calmed down. She looked at her flat stomach and thinking that she might have that man’s sperms in her body, the resentment in her heart reached another level.

She had read somewhere that if you have sex with a someone and doesn’t want to get pregnant, there are medicines called morning after and once you consume them, all the sperms will be washed out of your body.

Olivia stood up and started to ransack the room. From the drawers, under the pillow, in the wardrobe. But even after looking for half a day, she did not find anything. She held her head in frustration, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, an idea popped up in her mind, making her eyes light up.

Yes, although she could not get the birth control pills in this house, there was a traditional method she had read in a book. She just needed to consume a certain type of food and that would be.

Olivia delightedly wrote down all the ingredients required and handed it to the servants, telling them to cook it for her.

Although the servants did not know why their master had suddenly decided to adopt this play toy, they are aware that they couldn’t mess with her so, they did as they are told.

Olivia was excited that her method was working and no one was suspecting anything. She did not know if those servants knew that she was supposed to bear their master a baby. But even if they did, there was nothing they could do to her.

She would just say that she has a medical condition and she was supposed to consume that kind of food to stay alive.

The servants were quick and soon a bowl with hot, weird soup, was brought to Olivia.

Olivia looked at the ‘sperm killing device’ in the bowl and felt excited. She only hoped that it would work and kill all the bastards in her body.

Halfway through, the servant that had bathed her and helped her change appeared before her. Her uniform seemed different from the rest and she looked like their boss.

“In the evening, you will sleep in the same room with the master. You will have to do that until the day you can bore him a successor.” The woman said.

When Olivia heard her, she spat out the soup that she was supposed to swallow and started coughing profusely.

“What is wrong? Are you alright?” The woman asked. Although she seemed to be showing concern, her voice was still emotionless.

“I am…” gulp… “I am fine.” Olivia said after gulping down a glass of water.

“What, what was that you just said? I did not hear you well.”

“I said that our master will be sharing the room with you tonight. It will be like that everyday until the day you get pregnant.”

Olivia looked at the woman’s expressionless face and felt like punching her. How could she say such words, to a young lady like her, with a straight face?

“Cough... did your master order you to tell me that?” she asked.

The woman did not answer her. She just looked at the soup that Olivia was drinking with a deep gaze and left.

Olivia looked at the bowl of soup and suddenly lost her appetite. She had thought that her plan was surefire. Who would have thought that the man would be such a narcissist. Not only did he already sleep with her, but he also wanted to do it everyday.

‘No, I cannot allow this to go on. I have to find a way to leave this place or else I might end up dying from all the anger and frustrations.’ Olivia thought as she schemed the living room.

“Can I go out for some fresh air? I have been staying in this house for long, and I am feeling stifled.” Olivia said to the older woman.

“Alice.”

“What?”

“My name is Alice.” the woman said. She opened the door for Olivia and let her out without a word.

Although Olivia was shocked and suspicious, she happily left the house.

Finally having the freedom that she had longed for,she felt like crying.

She started to walk around the perimeter to see if there was a way to escape this damned place.

Her excitement turned to despair with every turn she made. She realized that this place was heavily guarded. So guarded, she thought that it was the white house.

Every time she turned to a certain corner, she would find a cold-faced bodyguard staring at her. They even had real guns and their aura alone sent chills down her spine.

‘Bro, I am sorry. I promise that I am just looking around. I am not planning to escape.’ Olivia shouted in her mind as she made her way back to the house.

Who exactly was this man and what does he do? That was only thought that ran through Olivia’s mind as she returned to house.

Her face was pale and her breathing was haggard.

She returned to her bedroom and threw herself on the bed. She completely removed the thought of trying to escape out of her mind. She did not want to have a bullet launched through her heart.

‘What am I supposed to do now that I cannot escape? I can’t just sit here and let the angels save me, right? By the time they realize that I am in trouble, I will be long dead for sure.’

Olivia laid on her back as she mulled over her situation.

She had to do something to get on that man’s bad side. She had to anger him to the extent that he will personally send her away?

But what was she supposed to do to achieve that?

Cut all his clothes into pieces? No, the man seemed rich and he might not care about a few suits.

Poo on his bed? Jeez, that was gross.

‘Stupid head, quickly come up with an idea!’
