CHAPTER 16

Darlington Briggs:

I arrived late, at around 9 p.m., after leaving the hotel where I had a meeting with Jenna. I was not happy with Jenna's refusal to agree to get pregnant for me, but I still love Jenna.

I tried to understand with Jenna that she is a top model in our country, and it matters the most to her to maintain her look and to keep being famous.

I remembered Jenna's words about me accepting a surrogate mother with her. Well, I could have received it, but still, I wouldn't say I liked the idea of that.

I drove my black car into my father's mansion premises and parked. I got out of the car and went into the living room, expecting to see my parents there and, more likely, the new lady that my father had married on my behalf, but as I got into the living room, I met only Samara and our maid.

"Good evening, big brother," Samara rushed up to meet me excitedly. She was wearing a white night dress, and I hugged her politely before letting go of her.

"Well done. Where are Mom and Dad?"
