Janetta had brought it up multiple times, even going out of her way to seduce him.
But all her efforts were utterly useless.
After losing her previous pregnancy, her body had suffered severe damage.
Conceiving naturally was entirely out of the question.
So, behind his back, she arranged for IVF and surrogacy.
She knew he would reject the idea if she asked.
She even acquired his sperm using the exact same underhanded methods as before.
She had initially insisted on using her own eggs.
But after multiple failed rounds of extraction and fertilization, the doctors had delivered bad news.
Left with no other choice, she secretly purchased donor eggs.
Only then did the surrogate successfully become pregnant.
Naturally, she planned to take that secret to the grave.
She was terrified of how violently he would react if he knew the truth.
She only needed the child to cement her unbreakable status in the family.
The true biological origins of the baby would remain locked away forever.
The family would undoubtedly run a paternity test, but as long as it proved the boy was his, no one would ask further questions.
It bruised her ego, but this was her ultimate insurance policy.
And the surrogate was scheduled to deliver any day now.
Focusing on her impending victory finally managed to calm her frantic nerves.
Six months into their marriage, Sebastian was suddenly hit with the news.
She brought a newborn baby home from the agency.
It was a baby boy, just a month old.
However, the infant looked startlingly frail.
The deed was done. His face was thunderous, but he couldn't exactly throw the child out into the street.
Especially not with a positive paternity test sitting right on the coffee table.
This was undeniably his son.
Grace Dale, on the other hand, was absolutely thrilled.
After all the recent tragedy, Grace had been genuinely terrified that her son would refuse to secure an heir.
Now, she couldn't care less about the unorthodox methods.
