Chapter 4 Love Amidst Pain

Rosalie was shocked seeing the paper flying away and was ready to follow it when the paper fell.

" Huh? What's that?" Rosalie said out loud and walked to where the paper fell to.

Rosalie bent down and picked the paper. She unfolds it and reads it out loud.

" A surrogate mother needed...

Payment: blank... a volunteer can demand for any amount"

" Really? What?!" Rosalie exclaimed seeing the amount.

" So... I can demand any amount huh?" She thought but then creased her brow.

" Crazy! " she exclaimed!

" How can I think about this again!" She said and dropped the paper.

She moved away and was about to enter the restaurant when she suddenly stopped.

" I should pick the paper... I... l" she didn't know what to do anymore.

One part of her wanted to pick the paper while another part wanted to ignore the paper and leave but...

" I should just keep it!... it won't hurt to just keep it right?" She thought and shrugged.

" Yea!" She walked back and picked the paper. She dusted it and re-read it again before keeping it inside her pocket.

She was still standing when her stomach growled again " I should grab something to eat!" She said as she ran into the restaurant.

Soon, Rosalie was done with her food and she released a silent burp while rubbing her stomach when a young man walked to her.

" Can I sit?" The man asked. He was in a corporate suit which made him look responsible. So Rosalie had no problem with him and she had also seen him eating with a lady not too long ago. So she thought the lady might be his woman who just excused herself.

" He might be here with his wife " she thought and shrugged as she sipped her wine.

" Good evening " the man greeted but Rosalie only replied with a nod.

It had been her attitude to ignore strangers because she saw no fun in it and would prefer her own moment alone without some bugs ~

The man smiled and sat comfortably. " Are you okay or you should be served more?" the man asked calmly.

" No" Rosalie replied nonchalantly, which made the man white confused but he shrugged it off and continued.

" My name is Ray!" The man said and did his suit well. Probably feeling himself.

Rosalie eyed the man and scoffed " he's not even good looking ~" she said inwardly as she seized the man from his crossed legs up to his head.

Truthfully, the man was quite handsome and women would easily be at his beck without much ado but to Rosalie, he was very ugly as no guy ever impressed her before except the models.

The man, not knowing what Rosalie was thinking about, just smiled " What's your name please?" The man asked as calmly as he could.

" My name?" Rosalie asked a little taken aback and the man replied with a nod.

Rosalie made a funny mouth as she cocked her head to the back " My name is... why do you want to know my name?" She asked, raising a brow.

" Because I just want to know. I won't bite because I don't bite Okay?!" The man replied, a little annoyed.

" Rosalie!" Rosalie snapped and sipped her drink.

She wanted to stand up right then and leave as the man was slowly stepping on her nerves but God knows she was curious to know what the man wanted to talk about.

She could see it in the man's eyes. He wanted to tell her something and she had a strange feeling about what he was about to say...

" Or is he my future husband?" She thought and her cheek turned beet red.

" Rosalie, I'm here for business " the man said which brought Rosalie out of her trance.

It was like the man was reading her mind because he just corrected her with his next statement.

Rosalie raised her head and looked at the man again " I must be crazy!" She said out loud.

" What?" The man asked with confusion in his eyes.

" Oh nothing! I was just thinking about something!" She replied and rolled her eyes.

" Screw me!" She cursed under her breath.

" Actually Rosalie, like I said, I'm here for business. A business which will earn you a lot of money. A fortune which will last you a lifetime!" The man said with a confident smile on his face.

Rosalie was shocked with the man's statement. " Is it so obvious already? she asked inwardly as she checked herself over and over again.

" Do I already look like a pauper? Is that why he wants to introduce me to a work? Like illegal work?" She asked herself numerous questions inwardly and even stood on her feet to check her palm.

The man looked at her reaction and it amused him " What's wrong Miss?" The man asked while chuckling.

" Do I look like a pauper? Is that why you are here? Do you even know me at all?" She asked. She already raised her voice as the man's words pissed her off a lot.

She wasn't okay with her situation and this man just had to mock her with her situation?

" Is this how the world is? When someone has a problem then the person would be treated anyhow?

Look at this man coming to me, telling me he wants to introduce me to one fucking business!. Or...

Do I look rugged? Like a thug? Is he crazy?" She thought with confusion on her face.

The man was surprised with her sudden question. He actually thought she was checking herself because she was happy but he realised he was wrong and he had to make things right before it escalated.

He looked around and saw people already turning to them.

" F**k! I hate this situation!" He cursed under his breath as he thought about what to do.

" please Miss! Don't misunderstand me!. ..

I wanted to talk about Mr Logan... I mean about the Surrogate mother!"
