Nathan was back at the hospital and after seeing the doctor, he went off to see Julia
"Where are you coming from?" Julia asked
"Doesn't matter Julia, what matters right now is that you are getting your surgery tomorrow, I just spoke with the doctor and your surgery is scheduled for tomorrow" Nathan announced with a joyous look on his face
"What?! How? I mean we have no money, who's going to pay for the surgery?" Julia questioned
"You don't need to worry about the money Julia, I took care of it" Nathan assured
"You took care of it? How? You have no money too" Julia reminded
"I made some money"
"You made enough to pay for my surgery in one day? What job did you do that paid you that much?" Julia asked getting curious
"You shouldn't be thinking about that, the only thing that should be on your mind right now is that you are finally getting your surgery done tomorrow, you must be hungry from being here all day, I'll go home and get something cooked for you" Nathan said beaming a smile at Julia as he stood up
He walked out of the hospital and climbed on his bike
He felt bad for not being able to tell Julia how he got the money, how can he bring himself to tell Julia he had to masturbate in a hospital room, ejaculate and sell his sperm to have been able to procure the money? He could never bring himself to tell Julia that so it would be better to forget about the incident as a whole and just work towards his future, his future with Julia

Blaire drove into Carter's medical center and met with the manager of the branch
"I spoke with Mr Carter and he informed me of your arrival, it's an honor to meet you Mrs Granger" the manager said as they walked into his office
"I hope Mr Carter told you how discreet you should be, no one must know of my coming to this hospital" Blaire cautioned
"Of course ma'am, many business icons have done their artificial insemination successfully here and no one ever found out, secrecy is one of our top priority" the manager assured
"Good, so how do we begin? I need to get pregnant immediately and I want the most viable and unique sperm you have in your bank" Blaire dictated
"We can get the insemination done right away if you are able to select the sperm you need now and luckily, we got a sperm donation today, the sperm is very much viable and the donor has quite the rare qualities, tall, handsome, smart but his quality that really stands out is his green eyes" the manager said
"The donor has green eyes, that would be so beautiful and he's smart too? I definitely want that sperm in me" Blaire decided
"Ummm.... But it's really going to cost you, such a rare sperm is hard to come by you know"
"Money isn't the problem manager, how much will it cost me?" Blaire enquired
"Just about fifty thousand dollars" the manager said surprising Blaire
"You said the sperm was donated so why the hell will it cost that much?" Blaire queried
"Like I said, it's actually quite the rare sperm from an individual with amazing qualities, no one would donate such a sperm to a hospital for free, we had to give the donor some enticement too before we were able to procure it and the fifty thousand dollars covers everything including the insemination process" the manager explained
"Fine go ahead, money is actually the least of my problem right now, I just need to get pregnant" Blaire stated
"There's a due process for this Mrs Granger, first I'll need to know if you are in your ovulation period as there is a higher chance of fertilization if we carry out the process when the lady is ovulating" the manager discussed
"Umm... I think so, luckily I think I am on my ovulation period" Blaire affirmed
"Great then, I'll get the sperm and prepare for the process, meanwhile I'll call in a trusted nurse to get you ready for the process" the manager said
"Sure" Blaire agreed
"After the insemination is done, the sperm will need about two weeks to fertilize your egg so you'll have to take a pregnancy blood test in about two weeks to know if the process is successful" the manager said
"Well it better be successful, a lot is already riding on the pregnancy" Blaire remarked
Hours later, Blaire got her insemination done and left the hospital to return in two weeks to get a pregnancy blood test
As she drove back home, she put a call across to Sarah
"Hey, how is the fake husband coming up? Have you found someone yet?" Blaire enquired
"Cut me some slack girl, you just told me about this stuff today and it's not like there's a guy right in front of my door waiting to be hired as a fake husband" Sarah said
"I need you to work fast Sarah, I just got my insemination done, I'll get the pregnancy test done in two weeks so by then, I want to have someone ready to bring in as my boyfriend" Blaire stated
"I'll get you a fake husband before two weeks Blaire, trust your secretary" Sarah assured
"Good, I guess this might work after all" Blaire heaved a sigh and ended the call
She drove back home and met James in the living room
"I guess everyone is asleep now" Blaire said as she ignored James presence, climbing up the stairs
"I took Freddie home" James said and Blaire stopped
"He fell asleep while waiting for you and his father was worried so I had to take him home, I was informed his car is with you right? Can I have the keys? I need to return it" James said and Blaire nodded
"Sure, here" Blaire climbed down the stairs and handed the keys to James
"Why didn't you use the cars in the Mansion?" James asked
"I just didn't want to, you know me, I am an independent lady and I detest using other people's stuff" Blaire said
"Yet you were able to lend Freddie's car?"
"Freddie's a friend" Blaire stated
"And the cars in the Mansion are all your father's, your father is family isn't he?" James enquired and Blaire scoffed
"What the hell is your problem with me tonight James? I used Freddie's car because I wanted to, you might be father's right hand man but please stay clear of me!" Blaire said and walked upstairs to her room
She has to be very careful now, James is a very smart guy, that is why he has been able to stay by father's side for so long, his intelligence and smartness won him father's heart, it would be better to make sure James pays her absolutely no attention at all, else his keen eyes might fish out her plans
Blaire took a shower and laid on the bed, she literally brought nothing here so she'll definitely have to go shopping tomorrow
She still can't believe she'll be living in this Mansion again from now on, this hell
Two weeks later....
Blaire's two weeks at the Mansion was literally screaming misery for her, though she maintained her cool in the presence of her siblings, she was restless, waiting for two weeks to know if she's pregnant or not was torture for her, having to pretend to be pregnant and sometimes bedridden with morning sickness just to convince everyone especially James and her father that she's really pregnant was miserable for her, she's sure Sarah had it tough too as she had to find a fake husband for her in such a short notice, but all that torture, misery and torment might actually come to an end today, she's finally going to the hospital to take a pregnancy blood test today and that's not the only reason she's over the moon with joy, Sarah is flying to London today with her fake husband that she hired, she just needed to go to the hospital and confirm that she's pregnant and everything will be perfect
Blaire took a shower and her phone rang just as she finished dressing up
"Sarah" Blaire called as she picked up the call
"I just met with your fake husband and we are on our way to the airport" Sarah said
"Great Sarah, I just finished dressing up to go to the hospital too"
"Well go get that test done and you better be pregnant Blaire, cause all of this is for nothing if you are not" Sarah said
"I'm positive I'll be, just bring in the hired husband and everything will be fine, make sure to fill him in on....."
Blaire quickly stopped talking as her door suddenly flung open and Liam walked in
Damn! Why does she always forget to lock her door, now this dumbhead might have heard what she said
"Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today Liam? Why the hell will you barge into my room like that?!!" Blaire fumed at Liam
"Who were you on a call with?" Liam asked
"Whoever I am on a call with is absolutely none of your business so don't you ever barge into my room like that!"
"I clearly heard what you were saying, just bring in the hired husband and everything will be fine? Are you really bringing a hired husband Blaire? What happened to the boyfriend you claimed knocked you up with that pregnancy or are you not really pregnant at all?" Liam interrogated and Blaire sighed
Just when she thought she was gonna have a great day, this douchebag brings up a problem
"You heard wrong Liam and if your mission is to taunt me this morning then I suggest you get out of my room"
"Don't be so harsh, I came because father wants us to have breakfast together and you were the only one missing at the table, unfortunately father pointed me out to come and bring your sorry ass to the dining room, I was angry before but considering the information I just found out, I'm not so angry anymore" Liam smirked and walked out
"That annoying brat! Why the hell did he have to walk in just when I was making that call" Blaire huffed
But even if Liam tells everyone, no one will believe him right? Of course, he's a dumbhead so no one will believe him
Blaire went downstairs to join everyone for breakfast and Jessica scoffed immediately she sat down
"You do have a talent for keeping people waiting" Jessica said and Blaire ignored
She isn't in the mood for any word exchange right now, she just wants to get this breakfast thing done with and go to the hospital for her pregnancy test
"You are dressed up Blaire, are you going out?" Linda asked
"I am not obligated to give a response to your question right? Especially not when your question has such an obvious answer" Blaire scorned
"Your pregnancy must be making you have mood swings considering the fact that you are getting flared up at such a harmless question" Linda uttered
"I'm surprised you know what pregnancy mood swings is considering the fact that you've never been pregnant before and who knows if you'll ever be" Blaire retorted
"You little devil, what gives you the authority to speak to my wife so rudely?!!" Ryan flared up
"Can we not have a single breakfast together without a fight?!" The Chairman said and Ryan muttered a sorry and sat down
"When is your boyfriend coming Blaire? We've waited two weeks and he still isn't here" the Chairman said
"I'm sorry, I spoke with him today and he just concluded his business in Mexico, he'll be in London before the week ends" Blaire said
Her fake husband might be coming in today but she'll need some time to teach him the do's and don'ts of the Mansion before bringing him in
Liam suddenly began to laugh and everyone's attention shifted to him
"Is there something funny Liam?" the Chairman asked
"Apologies father, I just remembered hearing Blaire speak on the phone when I went to call her for breakfast, she was clearly saying something like, just bring in the hired husband and everything will be fine, she has no boyfriend father, she's hiring some guy to come act as her husband and I find that very funny" Liam chuckled
"You big mouthed liar, I told you that you heard wrong, I said no such thing!" Blaire voiced
"If there's no husband then is there no pregnancy too?" Jessica laughed
"I am disappointed Blaire, I never expected you to be so greedy to the extent of you lying to father, to us all" Ryan remarked and Blaire turned to the Chairman
"Don't listen to them Sir, I am pregnant and my boyfriend will be paying you a visit soon" Blaire emphasized
"Not just a visit" The Chairman said looking at Blaire "He will marry you when he arrives and he will live here with you till you give birth so I can keep my eyes on him, you will only be handed my companies after you give birth and a DNA test is conducted on your child and your supposed boyfriend, and you better pray it matches when that happens cause I detest it when people lie to my face, especially when it's coming from one I refer to as my daughter" The Chairman stood up and walked out of the dinning room with James support.....
