Chapter Sixty - Four
Chapter Sixty - Four
"Give birth to the child. I will run a paternity test and if it's positive, then we can talk."
This wasn't what Daniella expected. Why did Loney have to be so clever? But she wasn't ready to give
up. She needed money. After paying Ray the part payment, she doesn't have much left. Besides, she
would need more money to keep up this game so she said, "Before then, a pregnant woman needs
care and a good home. What about that?" Her voice sounded casual.
However, Loney was not a fool and wasn't one to typically mess with. Not after what those surrogates
did to him when he desperately needed a child. However, he was a responsible man who would take
responsibility for his action but something inside him told him that whatever Daniella might be carrying
in her womb, whether a cow or goat, wasn't his. "I will not take responsibility until I confirm that the child
is mine, which I seriously doubt," he sounded curt and unfeeling, his expression blank.
Daniella had to think fast. From what Rosa showed him, Loney was extremely rich therefore, he would
care about his reputation. At first, she wanted to use the picture she saw about him and Jasmine but
the date on the picture depicted that it happened before he started dating her sister therefore, she had
one last strand to gamble with. "I will just have to publish it then since you do not want to take
responsibility. Let's see how you will continue to maintain your reputation."
Loney balled his hands into fists but he was reasonable. He had to buy enough time to do a proper
investigation on her. "Fine, I will give you $10,000 every month for your upkeep till the child is born.
Then I will run a paternity test before I decide on what to do."
Daniella's features burned with disappointment and fury. "Are you for real, you paid my sister 10 million
to be your surrogate and you want to give me 10,000? Most likely 90,000 over the period?" Her voice
was laced with bitterness. However, Loney had no intention of giving her more because he knew
Danica gave everything he gave her to Daniella so what could she be using the money for? He had to
find out.
"I would have given your sister more because she deserved it but she doesn't even want my money, so
why are you desperate for it? To pay the people helping you with this plot? Sorry." Loney only guessed
that Daniella had people forge documents for her but without any proof, he wasn't going to push it
further. However, Daniella feared being exposed if she continued, she might be caught.
"Fine. If the child is yours, you can have him or her but you pay me 20 million," she proposed. At least,
she would be able to get enough help to fake the DNA as well but Loney had his plans too.
"For my child, I will make it 100 million. That is if there is even something in that well you call a
stomach," Loney mocked but Daniella's heart thumped in her chest. This man sounded too confident, it
was as if he knew something. Or perhaps, he was just guessing.
"But I need to be taken care of. I have to be in the mansion," she tried her possibilities of returning to
the mansion. It would be easier for her to accomplish her plan if she lived there therefore, this was her
chance. Whichever way, that wasn't Loney's decision to make.
"Never!" Danica countered. Her eyes emitted fire, as everything her sister did to her began to replay in
her mind. Somehow, she was also slightly uncomfortable that her sister would be getting Loney's
attention if she lived with them in the mansion. "You shall never step foot in that mansion." Her voice
was calm but the firmness wasn't missed.
Well, Daniella might not be able to stand up to Loney but she might release her frustration on her sister.
A crooked smile appeared on her face, as she took a step towards Danica. She was everything
Daniella wanted to be and she had everything she wanted. She began to sheath with contempt.
"Sister dear, are you afraid that you are no longer going to be the queen of the house?" Her tone was
daring. She wanted to have a bet with her sister. This time, Loney wanted to see how far Danica would
go to protect what he had given her, therefore, he stepped back.
"You shall not step there and that is final," Danica gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"It's not up to you to decide. I'm carrying his child too," Daniella rubbed her flat belly mockingly.
Danica was furious but she took a deep breath and said, "unfortunately for you, he already willed
everything to me. So technically, the mansion is mine and I said NO."
A proud smile invaded the corner of Loney's lips as Danica exhibited her authority but he hid it well.
After all, his wealth was in safe hands and he knew that Danica would protect it for the sake of their
unborn child.
Daniella was flustered. How could Loney will everything to her sister? Every fibre of her being boiled
with rage and resentment so raw, she wanted to bury her sister alive. However, she swallowed the
convulsing emotions and turned to Loney, as she tried to win his sympathy. She spoke with the most
gentle voice, as she tried to imitate her sisters' voice. "Loney, would you prefer that your child is raised
away from a comfortable home?"
Loney's eyes had been glued on Danica with so much admiration. However, at the sound of his name
on Daniella's lips, he froze. The excitement coursing through him abated, as his gaze darkened. He
turned to her and said,
"When the child is born, I will take him/her out of Mexico to run a paternity test. I don't trust the medical
facilities here. They are easily bought over by the mafia. Experience has taught me that much. I will be
watching you, Daniella. Just make sure that you are not lying to me because if I find out that you are,
Mexico will be too small for the both of us," his tone was icy, it chilled Daniella.
She balled her hands into fists to stop the shiver that was beginning to course through her. Somehow,
she knew that Ray might not be able to help her achieve her ambition. Loney was too cunning. Still,
she would find a way out of this whole mess she created around her. "And if the child is yours, then be
prepared to make amends." After that, she stormed out. Gideon and Carlos followed suit. Loney didn't
chastise Marie for letting Daniella in. He understood why.
"Please Loney, don't allow her in the mansion. You can build her a house anywhere for her but I don't
want to be with her," Danica began to plead, pulling Loney from his thoughts. He gazed at her, a frown
creeping onto his features.
"What makes you think that I will allow her in the mansion or anywhere close to you? Not in my dreams
will I build her a house. That child is not mine," he said matter of factly. Danica sighed, relieved but was
soon gripped with anticipation.
"But, what if it is? Will you marry her?" She feared the answer Loney would give. It might just break her
heart. She could give her sister anything. Make sacrifices for her but when it came to Loney and her
child, she found herself being selfish. She couldn't share them with anyone. They were hers.
Loney stared at her strangely, then he pressed the back of his hand against her forehead. "Do you
have a fever?"
Danica was confused. "Why?"
"I only love one woman, and that is you. I will never love or marry another. I love you so much Danica,"
his voice was as soft as water, he made it sink into her subconscious mind. All the fear mixed with
jealousy dissipated inside her. Instead, she felt a new bond and love, brewing between them.
"I love you too." Her voice was teary when she spoke. How could she even doubt his love for her? He
would rather die than betray her. "And about those things I said. I hope you didn't take them seriously.
About owning your properties, I just wanted to make her jealous," she uttered like a child caught
stealing candy. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
A mischievous smirk curled the corner of Loney's lips. "Well, what you said is the truth. You own me,
Danica. Therefore everything I have is yours," his voice was gentle but firm. He walked to the door and
locked it as he spoke. She knew he meant it and when he held her, she melted in his arms.
Danica's heart thumped when Loney leaned on his luxury office desk and pulled her closer. "W..hat
what are you doing?" she stammered, her insides turning hot.
His hand found hers, as he placed it on his hard manhood. "You caused this Danica, now you have to
pay," his hot breath fanned her face as she began to blush profusely. "B..but we are in the office," she
stammered, uneasiness washing her.
"And the door is locked," he countered seductively. Before she uttered a word, his finger was inside her
wet core.
"Mmmmm," he moaned. I'm not the only one in need after all," he pulled out his finger and licked it.
"You taste delicious."
Danica was so embarrassed she wanted to hide. How could her body betray her like that and how
could Loney be so unashamed? Loney was in his own world, not knowing what was going on in her
mind. He nibbled on her lower lip and she gave him access. His tongue ravaged her warm mouth, she
moaned. He loosened his belt and unzipped his pants. With his two hands firmly positioned under the
butts, he picked her up and sat on the sofa. His hands traced the back of her dress and found her zip.
He pulled it down but didn't take off her dress completely. He slipped his hand inside her dress and
rubbed it around the cup of her bra. Danica wanted to take it off but he didn't allow it. He continued
teasing her. She moaned, pleasure cruising through her body like wildfire. She wanted the warmth of
their naked bodies as always but Loney had changed the game.
He removed her pants and thrust inside her. She was wet and warm, ready for him. It was gentle and
sweet, she moaned into his mouth.
He rocked her gently on top of him in that sitting position, She was on his laps, his hard manhood
inside her wet walls, their lips not parting, his hands rubbing her small bump, as he took her, slowly and
gently, only their soft moans could be heard in the large office.
