Cressida eggs were collected and Alex’s sperm was also collected and was taken to the lab. They were asked to wait- for a minimum of five days until the embryos were formed. Five days later they were called over to the hospital and the embryos were planted inside Cressida’s uterus after which she was asked to rest because the chances of getting pregnant are minimal. They would plant two three embryos and Cressida was informed about the same.
After everything was done, Cressida and Alex were asked to wait for two weeks and then the pregnancy test would
be done by them.
Amidst all this, Alex appeared to be least bothered and it was somewhere weird for her because it was him who
wanted a child, not her.
But she chucked it off because when did he seem interested.
Alex left for his work after that and Cressida informed him that she’ll be visiting her orphanage (Charity).
Once she got there, as she had expected all the kids screamed in excitement at her return.
“Cressida, you are back, we missed you so much,” they said happily.
She hugged them all and had a nice chat with them. She also played with them a little, Chloe just stared at them with
a smile.
This orphanage was solely Cressida’s responsibility but now that she had to be at Drake mansion, Chloe had promised her that she will be taking care of them until she returns.
“Chloe,” Cressida called, as she walked towards her, smiling.
They hugged each other before Chloe took her in a room to know about the progress.
“What is happening?” Chloe asked, looking at her face which didn’t show any kind of distress. She just looked kinda
nervous.
“We are going for IVF treatment.” She announced nervously, and Chloe’s eyes widened.
“So you aren’t going to have s*x?” Chloe left the sentence incomplete, and waited for her to complete it, but Cressida just shocked her head negatively.
Chloe grinned widely and jumped upon her, startling her.
“That’s such wonderful news. But how did he agree because as far as I know, he’s never taken a step back for anyone.” Chloe asked with a confused face, while Cressida frowned as well.
“You know him?” Cressida asked back, and Chloe rolled her eyes at her innocent question. She surely was unaware
of the world.
“Cressida, he’s “The KillDrake Drake‘, the Billionaire; the owner of Drake’s company.” Chloe explained, and Cressida

had her mouth hung open. Was he that famous?, she thought.
Why didn’t you tell me before? What if the media comes to know about this contract? What about me? This orphanage? Everything will be exposed, she panicked and Chloe gave her a helpless look“.
Chloe said, “This is why I was angry in the first place. You are too naive for this world and talk to him about this. Okay?” Cressida just nodded, with a worried look on her face.
Alex was sitting on his chair relaxed, and a smirk lingered on his lips as he recalled his conversation with the doctor before they were going to plant the embryos into her uterus.
He walked inside the doctor’s cabin like he owned it, and sat on the chair.
“Do you need something Mr. Drake? The embryos are ready and it’ll be quick.” The doctor informed him, but he was
least interested.
“Now you tell me honestly, what are the chances that she will get pregnant through this treatment? Can you write it on a stamp paper?” he asked, as he raised his eyebrow while the doctor fumbled.
“We can’t do that sir, because we cannot guarantee that she will get pregnant.” he replied truthfully, and Alex stared at him coldly.
“First things first, if she does get pregnant, that’s good for both of us, but if she doesn’t…” Alex trailed off, looking at the doctor who now was nervous.
“I will make sure that your career and this hospital ends. And this is my guarantee.” he said in a low voice threatening voice, while his cold eyes stayed on the doctor who started sweating.
“Sir, please you can’t do this. What do you want then?” The doctor pleaded to the devil who just sat with a smirk.
“Either you give me a 100% guarantee that this treatment will be successful or don’t plant whatever you are going to plant in her.” Alex gave him options, and the doctor looked at him shocked.
‘He didn’t want them to place the embryos in her uterus? Then why did he pay us?‘ the doctor thought.
“But then, it is okay if we don’t plant the embryos.” the doctor changed his statement, looking at Alex’s face which held a warning.
What followed was the doctors pretending to plant the embryos in her and asking her to rest. She was also informed that they’ll do the pregnancy test after two weeks just as per the procedure.
Now two weeks he could wait right? Of course.
If the doctor had given him the guarantee that she will get pregnant, then he wouldn’t have done this, but he can not just invest his money into something and get no result out of it.
He wasn’t a businessman who would incur losses, so he agreed to whatever she demanded and now after two weeks when the results will be negative, she will have to agree to what he will demand because, that’s how you play!
After Cressida got back to the mansion, she couldn’t concentrate on anything.

Chapter 19
She had to talk to Alex, and even though the doctor had asked her not to stress herself, she couldn’t help it. She tried to read books or tried to understand the features of the new phone, but nothing worked, she wanted answers and only he could give her the answer she wanted.
At ten thirty when he came back from work, she reminded herself to not jump on him the first instant and demand answers. She would wait until he freshened up, and had his dinner.
After fifteen minutes, she could no longer keep her calm, so she marched out of her room and walked to the direction of his room.
She knocked once, twice, thrice but got no answer, frustrated she pushed the door open and entered inside, only to find the room empty.
She frowned and looked around, but he was nowhere. Just then she heard a click, and Alex walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped lowly and dangerously around his waist.
She gasped loudly, looking at his naked chest which was still dripping with water. She had no idea for how long she stood there gawking at his chest and his abs.
Alex smirked seeing her gaping at him shamelessly and he could clearly see his effect on her.
“You need something?” he asked when she didn’t come out of her trance.
Cressida turned around embarrassed as hell. She thought of running out that instant, but controlled herself and composed herself facing him.
“I want to ask you something.” She said, as she tried hard not to look at his upper body and she saw him smirk, she wanted to just smack him.
He just gestured to her to go ahead, “You are a Billionaire?” she asked dumbly, and he raised his eyebrows as if
amused.
“So?”
She found his response rude but ignoring it she continued, “So what if the media comes to know about it? About me and the contract between us? I don’t want to be in the limelight Mr. Drake” she said sternly, and he continued staring at her.
He suddenly walked in her direction, making her heart beat against her chest. She couldn’t move an inch from where she stood, even if she wanted to run, she couldn’t.
He came dangerously close to her, such that she could feel the heat radiating off his body.
She shivered involuntarily and she looked up at him, “I have already taken care of that this news won’t be going out,” he whispered, and she should have felt the relief, instead she could feel her body heating up.
She gulped, looking into his eyes which felt like digging into her soul, she had to run because she couldn’t afford to get trapped into this devil’s plan.
