A noisy clatter crossed Samantha's ears as Declan dropped his cutlery. When she finally summoned the courage to look up at his face, there was a disappointed scowl on it.

It had been a busy week in the office, and they both needed time.There were several things that she wanted to discuss with him, but the priority on her list was the surrogacy that she had discussed with him the other day.

Her eyes widened in surprise. Micheal had spilled the beans but he had not reacted to them. Here she was, thinking that he was oblivious to what she had done. "After everything I have done for you, why are you insistent on frustrating me?" He asked as he stood up and walked towards her. She did not say anything but only shook like a leaf as he towered before her. "I knew you were a horrible person before I agreed to help you for Damian's sake," he began. "I even invited you to my Capetown trip that was suppose
