During a conversation, he inquired about the surgery cost for his brother, which was an astonishing $250,000. I shared the figure. Then, pointing to the contract stipulating payment of $80,000, he questioned how I would afford such a sum. Overwhelmed, I remained silent.
He then made an unexpected proposal, offering me $370,000 if I agreed to a personal arrangement. I couldn't comprehend the request and asked for clarification, pretending to misunderstand. His desire was for me to carry his child naturally, not through surrogacy, with the possibility of exceptions.
After much contemplation, I decided to accept his offer, driven by the concern for my brother's health. I softly added, "For my brother's sake," although it seemed to go unnoticed.
He outlined the terms: a private room, a credit card for personal expenses, daily intimacy for two weeks, strict restrictions on leaving without his consent, and no romantic relationships during pregnancy. My loyalty would be exclusive to him once I signed the agreement.
