The Billionaire’s Surrogate
Chapter 16 (OBSESSED WITH HIM)
Chapter 16
Two hours later, he heard her voice talking with Grandma and he hurried out of the room. His Mum and Grandma were in Grandma’s room arguing over something. He pushed the door open and entered.
“Mum, where did you go to? I came home and didn’t see you.” He sat close to her and hugged her. “Harry, please go out. I’m having a talk with your Mum.” Grandma pointed to the door.
“What are you talking about that you don’t want me to know?” He looked at his Grandma. “It’s not something you shouldn’t hear about.” His Mum said to him. “Then why does Grandma wants me out?”
“It’s about your sister.” Harry looked at his Mum Surprisingly. “Which of them?” he asked. “Clara.” His Grandma chuckled. “What happened to her?” He was confused. “Clara is seeking for divorce.”
“A divorce!” he exclaimed. “Yes, a divorce. Your Mum wants Clara to divorce her husband.” Harry looked at his Mum and then at Grandma. “Mum won’t do such a thing.” He defended her.
“Oh really? You are taking her back? You are still a boy, Harry. You don’t know what your Mum’s capable of doing until she do it to you.” Harry chuckled and Sneered.
“Mum, why do you blame me for Clara’s decision? I already told you it isn’t me that’s forcing her in to getting a divorce. You were there when she said her husband has been cheating on her,” she sighed.
“From the first place, I wasn’t happy with the marriage but you insisted I agree to it.” She blamed Grandma. “Oh you are blaming me now. You know what, just get out of my room. And just for you to know, if Clara divorce her husband, she and her kids should not come to this house,” she warned.
“But this is my house and Clara is my sister,” Harry said “Your house right? Then I’ll leave because I can’t stay here and see the behavior your Mum raised you all with.”
“Come on Harry, let’s go.” His mum said and they left the room. “Mum, what really happened?” Harry was confused. Clara and her husband loved each other so much. He could remember when her husband was visiting her before they got married.
He remembered his Mum didn’t like Clara’s husband but they became close after the marriage.
“I don’t really know, Clara doesn’t want to tell us all that’s happening. She only said he’s cheating on her and she can’t take I anymore,” she sighed. Harry pulled the door to his room and they both entered. “And her kids?” he asked helping her sit on a chair.
“They are with her.” She held her forehead with her left hand. “Mum is giving me so much headache. She’s blaming me for everything,” she sighed deeply.
“Forget about Grandma, she’s doing that to make you look bad. Do not listen to her. I don’t even know why Clara got married from the first place,” he scoffed. “I told them not to get married but they didn’t listen to me.” Harry clicked his tongue.
“Oh well, I just hope she overcome this.” Mum lifted up her head “How did it go with Emily?” she asked. “I gave her the document.” He sat down on the chair beside her.
“What did she say? She agreed with it?” she asked with eagerness. “She will give me the feedback tomorrow,” he grinned. “I hope so.”
“Mum, I’m very sure Emily will sign the contract. She’s so obsessed with me,” he chuckled softly. “I saw that in her eyes the first day I meet her. But are you bringing her here?”
“Of course, where will I take her? I’m not interested in her so, she can’t stay here and become one of the maids.” He smiled. “Okay, whatever you say.”
The next day, Emily brought out the paper from the drawer to sign it but she didn’t have a pen. She looked around but couldn’t see one. And so she decided to go borrow one from Belle.
“Hi Belle.” She stepped inside the room and closed the door. “Hi,” Belle said without looking at her. “You still angry with me?” Emily asked her and she sighed. “Emily, I only want the best for you,” she said worriedly.
“I know and I’m so sorry about yesterday. Can you lend me a pen please.” She pointed to the pen on the book on top of the bed. “What do you want to do with it?” Belle asked looking at her Surprisingly.
“I….I want to list somethings. Harry wants me to write him things he would get for Jeff.” She lied. “Oh okay. You can take it.” She picked up the pen and turned to leave.
“Emily, think very well,” she smiled and Emily smiled at her too. “I will, thanks girl.” She left the room with Belle following her with her bag. “Bye, I’m off to work.” She waved and left the house.
Immediately Belle left for work, Emily locked the door and went to her room. She brought out the contract from the drawer again and smiled at it.
“Today is finally the day to hand this over to Harry.” She hugged it to her chest first before picking up a pen from the table. “So where should I sign?” She flipped the pages and then saw where she would sign at the end. “Done!” She closed the pen.
“Jeff, I’m going to be your Dad’s wife. What a dream come true.” She shrieked in excitement. “I wonder what he would look like today. Harry always looks different each day. I can’t wait to see him.”
Few hours later, Emily heard a knock from the door and she ran out of the kitchen. She was happy that Harry has finally come but when she opened the door, she was Disappointed to see only Ron standing on the steps.
