She smiled. "Unbelievable right? I'm just scared for him. I want more grandchildren, hun. I don't think I can consider Emily as my granddaughter because she'll change her surname when she gets married like I did to mine. "
I became uncomfortable, wondering why she was telling me details about her family. What was going on? "She's still your granddaughter, ma'am." I murmured.
"Of course I know that, but I want a male son." I want someone to continue my family name and not someone who would end it. " She replied with a smirk on her face.
"I'm sure Emily can sort that out when she grows up. She's just a kid."
"That seven-year-old kid is smarter than she looks," she retorted. "What would you do if you also needed a grandchild badly?"
"But you have a grandchild already?"
"C'mon, I need a male grandchild."
And what does that have to do with me? Because I didn't remember signing up to be a fertility doctor.
"Yes ma'am, I understand your plight." I muttered, and she stood up and walked towards the window.
And that's why I have a deal for you. I want to make you my granddaughter's nanny, but I also want you to seduce my son too. " She said, and I frowned.
Was she trying to make me a nanny for her selfish ambition? "No, this is not right, ma'am. I can't seduce your son even if I wanted to."
She frowned.
"And what are you saying? Just fucking shit up and do what I'm asking you to do. "
"Ma'am, I'm not sure I can do that."
"Mr. James has a wife, right?"
"Ex-wife," she corrected with a smile. "Besides, I heard your dad's in the hospital and he'll be dying soon if he doesn't have surgery." She added, with a smirk.
Now she's got me!
I would do anything to make sure that my father was healthy. "How can you help me?"
Let's help each other. I want you to seduce my son and become pregnant for him. "I'll pay you a lot of money, and you can go to another country with your father."
My eyes widened. How could someone be so wicked? If she thought I was going to seduce her son, she's dumb.
"That's not a problem."
"I'll bring my lawyer tomorrow and we'll sign the contract." She said, and I frowned.
"How can you help my dad?" I asked her.
"Well, I'll have him taken to one of the best hospitals in New York for his surgery, and I'm sure he'll recover very soon."
I nodded. "I have a question. Why do you want me to give birth to your son?"
"Look, I know my son can never fall in love with another woman after what his ex-wife did to him. I want grandchildren who would inherit my properties and bear the family name till death. "
I changed my mind the very minute I discovered that she was only trying to use me for her own selfish interests. "I'm not interested, ma'am. I don't want to do this."
She let out a frustrated sigh. "Gosh, why did I even call you for the job?" You're so stupid and arrogant. "Leave my office and don't come back. She ordered, and I walked out of her office.
I just hoped that I made the right decision by refusing her offer. I didn't want to do anything that would get me in trouble with Mr. James.
After seeing him on TV twice, I knew he was an arrogant but handsome young man, but I hated proud men. What should I do with him?
Alright, I could be James's nanny, but his mom wanted me to do something else, which I would never do.
"What happened up there?" Amanda asked as I climbed down the stairs with a displeased expression on my face.
"Nothing important happened." I lied, but it was obvious I was lying. Amanda could tell from my face that she was my best friend and could notice that I was more than bothered with everything around me.
She chuckled softly. "You look sad and worried." She makes you annoyed, right? That witch doesn't know when to keep quiet. "
I shook my head. "No, it's fine. In all honesty, I'm used to it already. It's nothing new to me. I'm always used to it. It's fine.
She walked towards me and placed her hands on my shoulders. Alright, I'll believe you for now, but please, don't hesitate to tell me if anyone frustrates you. I'll personally deal with that person and drop our resignation letters on Mrs. Donna's table. "
I laughed. Having a best friend like Amanda was everything. Having someone who would support you in every situation was so rare, and this was one of the reasons why I would never forget her.
