The Billionaire's Kept Woman

"So, what do you need before I go off to work?" He asked.

"Where are you off to?" She asked.

"I have to go somewhere." He moved closer to her and whispered it to her ear. She nodded her head. "You can take care of whatever surrogate you like to carry our baby."

"Really?" She asked him. "I thought that we could screen them together."

"Choose the possible candidates and we will screen them together." He patted her head.

"Okay," She sighed.

"I will meet you in the bedroom." He winked at her. MJ laughed as Harvey walked around again. He will probably be back in twenty minutes.

Somehow, the candidates were early. So, MJ took her baby to the room where she\'s going to screen the possible candidates for surrogates. There were five women and all of them looked very simple. She sat down gracefully as her assistant, her maid and her butler became busy with preparing her drinks and serving the three girls while her assistant gave the tablet to her so she could see their profiles. She nodded her head and looked at them.

"I am sure that if one of you were chosen, you have to stay here and can\'t leave the mansion until you deliver my baby."

They nodded their heads.

"The people will check on each of you if you are capable. I have a lot of rules." She nodded at her assistant as the assistant distributed the papers. "Read it, we will see each other this afternoon after you have all of your tests."

"There you are." Harvey came, fresh from the bath. "I was waiting for you." He approached his wife and kissed her forehead. "Let\'s have breakfast first before I go."

"Okay," She nodded her head. "Babe, these are our candidates."

Harvey smiled at them and nodded his head. He carefully scooped their baby and he sat beside his wife as she showed him their profiles. He bent down to mumble.

"You can take care of it. You can have as many as you want." He grinned at her. She giggled and nudged him. Harvey was very careful when holding their baby.

"Clare Benson?" She looked at the woman with brown hair. "So, you\'ve done it two times now?" She asked.

"Yes, Ma\'am." The woman looked very formal and with that, she looked pleasing. The others were the first-timers to carry someone else\'s child but they\'ve been pregnant once or twice.

"Okay, we will look through this." She told them. "Miss Jullien, please assist them."

"Yes, my lady."

Harvey stood and waited for his wife to stand. She held his arm and they exited the room.

"I can\'t wait to have another baby." She whispered at him. "After the tests, we will choose who we want."

"Anything for you, my love." They looked at Dione who yawned.

"Oh, you are so cute, baby." He pointed to her nose. "You look just like your beautiful mother."

MJ giggled and glanced at the woman who also came out of the room. One caught her eyes and bowed her head. It was Clare Benson. The other girls also bowed their heads to thank her.

"Breakfast darling," He said. "You need to eat a lot."

They went to the gazebo in the garden where their breakfast was set up. No air conditioner and just fresh air with the chirping of birds.

"When will be your schedule to depart?" She asked and glanced at their baby who was already sleeping.

"In two hours, my love." He didn\'t glance at his phone as he only continued to eat. "Should we do a background check on them?"

"Yes, we should." Harvey chewed hard on the bacon and then he looked at his daughter who woke up suddenly, stretched, and yawned. "Good morning, Princess. You always sleep as usual. Eat and sleep, you\'ll grow faster than I won\'t be able to catch up."

Dione started crying or more like acting like she wanted to be picked up. Harvey quickly wiped off his hands.

"I got it, babe, this little Princess will be pampered by her handsome father." He carefully picked her up and she stopped crying. "I knew it." He grinned. "Daddy will be away for a while, don\'t make it hard for your mommy, okay?"

She cooed and slowly closed her eyes.

"She fell asleep fast in your arms." MJ grinned.

"Don\'t worry about this little darling, you take your time on eating."

MJ enjoyed her food and in an hour, she finished her food. Her husband was patient. He even escorted them back to the bedroom and he let her take a bath first before he went. He became busy playing with his little darling while his wife was getting ready.

MJ came out, wearing a nice long dress just above her ankle. Her hair was already dry and beautiful.

"Wow," Harvey stared at her for a long time, admiring her. "You look more beautiful in dresses, my love. I know you leave jeans so much."

"That is why I am acting like a lady since your mom mentioned that we have to act like royals." MJ approached him, reached his face, and kissed her lips. "Once that I recover, let\'s make love until we get tired."

Harvey\'s eyes dilated from what she said but she only smiled. He agreed with her and looked down at their baby.

"But this little one needs to be away from us for a bit if that\'s what you want."

"She will be big enough," MJ told him.

"Of course," Harvey grinned. "For now," he carefully placed Dione over the bed. "I have to go." He kissed his little Princess\'s forehead and then, he hugged his wife. "Two days or three, my love." He shoved his face to her chest while she

"Just be careful and come back to me soon." She holds the back of his head.

"I will. I will." He reached her left breast and squeezed it. "It\'s full." He winked.

"That\'s not for you." She giggled.

"I will have it some other time." He stood, reached her face, and kissed her passionately. Dione cooed and started wailing. "Alright, I\'m leaving." He kissed Dione who quickly stopped and stared at him. "Daddy\'s leaving, but I will be back with a lot of gifts for you, my Princess, and also for my Queen." He looked up at his wife and grinned.

Harvey changed his clothes, took his bag, and carried his baby girl all the way downstairs while his wife walked with him. His car was already waiting outside and he carefully gave their daughter a big kiss on the forehead.

MJ held their baby as he kissed her lips. Then, he hopped in the car with Viper. She smiled and watched her husband leave. She went back inside. Somehow, the home feels real, really, quiet all of these days. Keira died and Johanna was busy. It was only her and Dione. But she will spend her time on healing and taking care of her daughter while they are screening for possible surrogates.

She went to the playroom meant for Dione and carefully put her on the crib. She turned on the television, channeled directly to the Paradis Evergarden Kingdom. In the news, people become busy with the upcoming war. The government is giving them enough protection. There were also a lot of stocks of foods that came recently. The news anchor was serious about this matter.

"Our Beloved Queen together with our soldiers are doing everything to keep peace and keep everyone safe. For the past few weeks, the death rate and crimes went down. That is based on Duke Gian Del Carlo\'s statement during the latest conference."

Ian\'s face from the conference meeting flashes on the screen without the Queen beside him. He spoke well, spoke a little, and was direct. He didn\'t say anything about the plans. Her assistant came with the Butler and served her hot fruit tea together with a non-sweet snack. She thanked him and took the tablet that her assistant gave. She checked through it.

"The best candidate will be Clare Benson. Next is Mary Jane. It is either the two, my lady."

"Hmm," She nodded her head. "Let\'s run a background check on them."

"Yes, milady. It will take only a few hours."

"Take your time. We need to search thoroughly."

"Yes, Ma\'am."

MJ carefully picked up Dione as they left quietly from the room. She needs to feed the hungry baby before it cries.

"You will have baby siblings soon.." MJ pointed at Dione\'s slender pointed nose.
