Billionaire’s Baby Mama

{Amy’s Pov}

I arrived at school a little late today because I had to accompany Nathan to the hospital. His sickness was getting worse and he needs to get his operation done as soon as possible.

Nathan is the only family I have left and I am willing to do anything to save his life.

I have always been alone all my life. I wandered around the streets as an orphan. I didn’t know who my parents were or how I came to this world. I only know that I have been sleeping by the road side since I could remember.

I begged around for money to feed until Henry Jeurgens found me one day and brought me home when I was 12. He completed every formalities and adopted me into his family. He gave me a name and a home. A debt I can never repay even if I offer my life.

He called me Amy because I was his beloved. I have purple eyes which is very rare and makes me stand out as Dad would always say. Henry was the father I never had and his wife Sandra was the mother I never had.

They accepted me into their family and treated me like their eldest daughter and they raised me along with their ten years old daughter.

Nathan Jeurgens accepted me as his elder sister. And We do everything together, from going to the same school to sleeping in the same room despite being of different genders.

We are best of friends.

We were a perfect family, Until five years ago.

Everything changed when Henry met with an accident and died. Sandra got a Heart Attack and died on the same day.

We were left with nothing but the house we lived but we had to sell it to feed and also to help Nathan through school.

I took on all sorts of jobs to help us survive. I was lucky to get a scholarship to study Business Law in Sam Houston State University but Nathan Suddenly became sick and was diagnosed to have a failing kidney.

Nathan’s condition was worsening and there was no way I could get the amount required for his operation despite taking several jobs.

After today’s visit to the hospital I knew I had to arrange the money real fast. I have to find a way to get $100000. But How?

I was totally lost in thoughts that I didn’t notice a car park beside me.

Yo! Amy! how you doing? Troy called from inside his car. He stopped his Ferrari Purosangue beside me and brought out his hand through the window.

“You got my stuff?

Troy Campbell or Troyce as he likes to be called, is my classmate and his parents are quite rich. However, Andy finds it hard to do his homeworks. So I do his homework and I get paid for it.

“Yeah. I’m done with it,” I said, handing him his notebook and He gave me 200 bucks.

“Thanks,” I muttered and turned to leave but I stopped again at Troy’s call.

“Amy, did you think about my offer?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Thanks again, Troy, but I think I’ll have to pass on that offer. I’d rather stick to doing your assignments,” I smiled.

“Are you rejecting me? Andy asked with a smirk.

“No, Troy,” I took his hand and flashed a smile.

He nodded and I could see that he was hurt by my rejection so I leaned closer to the window and placed my hand on his shoulder.

“Believe me, Troy, I am not rejecting you. But I just really don’t want anything to do with relationships.”

“We’re friends already, right? Let’s remain friends, please.”

He nodded and smiled but I could see that it was forced.

“It’s okay Hon.”

“I don’t mind being your friend now but soon, Amy, I’ll make you change your mind.”

“Look, Troy … I..”

“Take care, Hon,” Troy waved and he immediately drove off.

“Poor Troy,” I sighed as I walked out of school.

Though I felt bad for rejecting him everytime but the last thing I need now is having my heart disturbed by love. I have a lot to worry about and I wouldn’t like to add love to the list.

I arrived at the bus stand awaiting the bus but I noticed that there were two ladies who were also waiting for the bus. They had heavy make-up on their faces and they were chatting loudly about some movie.

However, what caught my attention was the mention of money and I heard them talk about Surrogacy.

Lady 1: “Do you think it’s good to be a Surrogate?”

Lady 2 : “Yeah, It’s not bad, but I cannot do it. I mean, why would I give my baby to someone else?”

Lady 1 : “It helps bring a smile to other people’s faces. It gives them a shot at being parents too. and I heard that surrogates gets handsomely paid.”

Lady 2 : “Yeah. I heard that they are well paid. Infact my co-worker became a Surrogate for a family and got $50000 as an advance payment and she will get $100K after delivering the baby.”

Lady 1 : “That’s right. I’ve also heard they pay monthly for feeding and housing Or even get the surrogate an apartment.”

Lady 2 : “Yes, that’s true and It’s nice. But I am too emotional to do such a thing. What if I refuse to give the baby after delivering?”

They both laughed at the comment.

They hopped inside the bus as it arrived at the bus stop. Their discussion ended as they got into the bus. I was also waiting for the same bus so I got on too. However, the ladies didn’t talk about surrogacy anymore.

Surrogacy? $100000! I repeated to myself.

Could this is the answer to my prayers?

I thought to myself and I immediately brought out my phone to find out more about Surrogacy. After reading and understanding everything about surrogacy, I found an agency and immediately registered to be a surrogate.

I was overjoyed by this step and I was happy to tell Nathan of my discovery but I found Nathan lying on couch. He was looking very weak. His face was pale and his lips were cracked. He was sweating profusely despite the small air conditioner in the living room.

His legs were swollen and my heart shatter for him. I became even more determined to go through with the surrogacy as that was my only hope of getting money and with enough money, I can get Nathan treated.

Every reservation dissipated at the sight of Nathan. I can’t stand seeing him in such state.

“I want my energetic Nathan back!”
