A Baby For The Millionaire (The Full Series) Page 3


  As I perused through my mail, there was a brown envelope that caught my eye. My breath caught at the return dress label, “Jenny Carpenter”. What was she sending me? Was she pregnant? My heart skipped a beat. It was beyond my control now. I would not be an absent dad to my only child. I ripped open the envelope expecting to see a pregnancy test and a letter. Instead I saw a wad of cash.

  “What the…?” I swore to myself. I didn’t need to count it. I knew it was all there. She wanted nothing to do with me then. It made me angry. I knew she needed that money. I felt guilty. It was my own fault. I should never have asked her to be my special personal assistant.

  “Harriet, this is Hamilton, I need an address.” I called down to the HR department and did something I should have done 2 days ago. I had to go and visit Jenny and apologize. Hopefully she would forgive me. I had a hop in my step as I walked down to the lobby. I was excited to see Jenny again. I didn’t ask myself why.

  Chapter 5

  “I’ll get it,” I shouted out to Lucy as I rushed towards the door. Who could be here at 10am?

  “Hello,” I beamed as I opened the door. My smile fell when I saw whom it was. “What are you doing here?” I glared at Hamilton as my heart skipped a beat. My body throbbed and ached to be close to him. I couldn’t believe that it would respond so desperately after only having met the man once.

  “Can I come in?” He looked at me shrewdly as if trying to figure out how mad I really was.

  “No, no you can’t.” I stepped back involuntarily as he walked into the apartment. “I told you no.”

  “I figured this was a conversation you would rather have in the apartment, rather than out.”

  I glared at him. And groaned when he leaned forward and kissed me. I couldn’t help myself from responding back to him. My body was a traitor.

  “Who was it Jen?” Lucy came running into the living room. “Oh.”

  I quickly yanked my head back from Hamilton’s and blushed. “Uh, this is Hamilton. Hamilton Verona.”

  “Oh.” Lucy looked at him in astonishment. I could tell that she didn’t know whether to punch him or just leave us alone.

  “Nice to meet you. I assume you are Lucy, the roommate and best friend?” Hamilton smiled down at her.

  “Uh, yeah.” Lucy mumbled. I could tell that she was taken with his good looks as well.

  “It’s okay Lucy. I got this. Hamilton won’t be here very long.” I motioned him to come and sit at the couch.

  “Ok, call me if you need me.” Lucy gave my hand a squeeze and walked back to her room.

  “Nice place, “Hamilton said as he looked around him. “I can understand why you wouldn’t want to leave.”

  “Thanks.” I didn’t bother responding with any comments about how grand his place likely was, as I didn’t want him thinking I was begging for an invite.

  “Are you pregnant?” I guess he was going straight for the punch.

  “No.” I replied quickly.

  “No?” For a split second I thought he looked disappointed.

  “Nope. So you can go now.” I went to get up.

  “Wait.” He grabbed my arm. “I want to see the test.” GROAN.

  “I threw it away.” I lied.

  “Take another one.”

  “What do you care? I said no I’m not pregnant okay. So hey, you didn’t get trapped. Hooray and goodbye.”

  “You didn’t take a test did you Jenny?” He was shaking his head. “What am I going to do with you Jenny?”

  “Nothing, thanks.” I shot at him; all the while my body was feeling differently. I wanted to take him to my bedroom.

  “Jenny, I am going to take care of my child.”

  “What child?” He was annoying me. Why was he going on about a baby? What happened to the special assistant job? Not that I wanted it anymore but I at least wanted to be wanted.

  “Jenny, we had unprotected sex. Just because you were a virgin doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant.” I groaned in embarrassment as I felt my face reddening.

  “No way, really sir?”

  “Don’t get an attitude with me young lady. I will put you over my knee.”

  I glared at him while secretly hoping he would do it.

  “Do you have a test?”

  “What?” I was confused again. I was still picturing myself across his knee and my shorts coming off.

  “A pregnancy test Jenny. To see if you are having my baby.” Hamilton annunciated his words like he was speaking to an elderly person with bad hearing.

  “Yes, Hamilton. I have one. I haven’t taken it yet. It’s too soon. I can’t take it for a few days yet for it to be accurate.”

  “Take it now.” He barked at me.

  “Frankly, you are beginning to annoy me Mr. Verona. I think it is time for you to leave.”

  “Jenny, you are going to take that test if I have to force you. I am not leaving until I see it.”

  “SIGH, okay. I’m not pregnant you know. But I will take it so you can leave.” I got up and marched to the bathroom. In actuality I was scared to take the test. If I was pregnant, my family was going to be so disappointed. And I was going to have to figure out a way to make money really quickly.

  ***

  “Shit, shit, shit.” I stared at the stick in front of me. It said I was pregnant. I didn’t know what I was going to do.

  “Jenny, you done yet?” Hamilton banged on the bathroom door for about the 10 time.

  I walked out and showed him the stick despondently.

  “What does this mean?” Hamilton barked at me immediately.

  “It means I’m pregnant.” I said glumly. Though inside I felt a glimmer of excitement. I was having Hamilton’s baby, a piece of him would always be with me. I didn’t want to think about that excitement too closely.

  “I see.”

  I looked up at Hamilton scared to see his reaction. I couldn’t bear to see anger in his eyes. I was thankful to see a sparkle in his eyes.

  “I’m sorry.” I mumbled.

  “It’s okay. What’s done is done.” He put his arms around me and held me. “It’s okay Jenny. It’s going to be okay.” I sagged into him and buried my face in his chest and breathed him in, I was shocked that he was being so nice. I wished that I had met him in different circumstances.

  “Thanks Hamilton.” I kept my arms around him.

  “Where’s your room?”

  “What?” I looked at him in shock.

  “I want to have my wicked way with you again my dear,” Hamilton grinned at me as he brushed my hair back away from eyes. “I want to talk to you.”

  “Okay.” I led him to my room, slightly disappointed that he didn’t want to have his wicked way with me.

  I sat on the edge of my bed and he sat next to me.

  “Can we lie down? I feel a bit awkward just sitting here.” Hamilton looked at me sheepishly. “I promise to keep my hands to myself.”

  “Fine.” I lay back on the bed and he lay down next to me. I turned my face towards him and he faced me as well. I could feel his breathe on my nose. I looked up into his eyes and I saw concern there. A deep warm concern. I didn’t know what his issues were but deep down Hamilton was a good man. And I was in love with him. I gasped in shock but he didn’t notice. I wanted to groan out loud. How could I be so cliché? How could I love this man already? But I knew inside that I had been gone the moment I laid eyes on him. That was why I had allowed him to make love to me. I wanted to have some part of him. My body, my soul craved him.

  ***

  I couldn’t believe I was going to be a father. I was excited. I couldn’t help it. I trusted Jenny and knew that she hadn’t planned this. I gazed into her eyes staring into mine soo innocently. And felt an unfamiliar emotion running through me.

  “So Jenny, I think we need to talk about what’s next.”

  She looked at me in confusion. “What do you mean?”

  I resisted the urge to kiss her, “I mean, us, getting married, living together, ha
ving a baby.”

  “What, what?”

  “I’m not having my kid growing up in a single parent family Jenny.”

  “But we can’t get married. You, you don’t love me.” She looked at me searchingly.

  “You can’t even afford to pay your rent Jenny. You cannot raise a child by yourself. I want to be in my child’s life.”

  “But, but you don’t want to get married. You told me before you didn’t even want to be in a relationship.”

  “That was before.” I knew she thought I meant before the pregnancy but I really meant before I met her. I hadn’t been able to stop thinking about her. I wanted to date her. I wanted to get to know her. This pregnancy thing was just fast-forwarding everything.

  “I don’t want to trap you Hamilton.” Jenny looked at me with concern. I couldn’t stop myself so I reached over and gave her a thorough kissing.

  “You aren’t trapping me Jenny.” I wrapped my arms around her and watched her as she fumbled with my shirt buttons and kissed my chest. She paused when she got to my belt buckle and looked up at me. I quickly pulled her up close to me and took off her t-shirt, she wasn’t wearing a bra underneath and I smiled.

  “I thought women with big boobs always wore bras?” I questioned her.

  “Are you calling me fat!”

  “Not at all my dear, not at all.” I bent down and took one of her nipples in my mouth as I played with the other one. She gasped and starting gyrating against me. I could feel myself growing hard and knew I had to have her. I reached over and pulled her shorts down and she was lying in her panties. I went to pull my pants down and she stopped me.

  “I want to do it,” she said shyly. She slowly and agonizingly pulled my pants down while I shrugged off my shirt. We were both now just in our underwear and naked above the waist.

  “Jenny, you are so beautiful,” I played with her hair as she bent over me.

  “Not as much as you.” She sat on top of me and I grabbed her ass, grinding her womanhood into my manhood. I could feel that she was wet as she grinded back and forth on me. She was wearing a thong and I could see her clitoris throbbing on top of me. I reached down and let my penis slide out of the hole in my boxers, so that she was sliding back and forth on top of me.

  She gasped when she realized it was my direct flesh she was rubbing up against.

  “You are always so wet for me Jenny.” I grabbed her mouth and kissed her. Her breasts grazed across my chest as she moved back and forth on me. I pushed my hand down and moved her thong to the side as I rubbed her clit.

  “Oh, Hamilton,” She breathed heavily, “don’t stop.”

  I pushed my fingers inside of her and her wetness made me harder than I was before. “I want to enter you Jenny.” I looked into her eyes. I wanted to make sure it was okay before I entered her.

  “Please,” She groaned at me. I laughed. It seemed that my Jenny was a perfect match for me. She was as insatiable as I was. I removed my fingers and lifted her up a little bit. Then I brought her down on to my cock.

  “Awwww,” She groaned down on me.

  “Move back and forth Jenny,” I said guiding her hips until I no longer needed to. She got the hang of it pretty quickly and started rocking back and forth bringing me to the brink of an eruption. We came together about 5 minutes later. “I don’t know what you do to me Jenny.” Though I had a feeling I knew what was happening.

  I watched her as she slept. Her head resting on my chest, she was so peaceful. She was so lovely. And she was carrying my child. I knew then and there that I wanted this lady to be mine forever. She hadn’t agreed to marry me as yet but I was confident that she would. I smiled. I realized for the first time in about twenty years that things were all right in the world. And I drifted asleep alongside her, holding her stomach in my hands.

  Chapter 6

  I woke up feeling satiated and happy. I yawned and looked over and saw Hamilton asleep next to me. His face looked so gentle while he was sleeping. I felt a rush of love run through me. I couldn’t believe that I had met this man only two days ago and now I was deeply in love with him. It didn’t seem real. I couldn’t believe he was in my bed right now.

  “Jen, you okay?” Lucy poked her head around my door and I smiled embarrassed. Here I was in bed with Hamilton again after just telling Lucy how much I hated him.

  “Yeah, I’ll be right out.” I waited for Lucy to leave the room before slipping out of the bed and putting my clothes back on. I looked down at Hamilton sleeping and smiled, I hoped I was having a boy; I’d love to have a little Hamilton running around. I walked quietly out of my room and went to the living room to talk to Lucy.

  “Lucy, I’m pregnant.” I blurted out as soon as I saw her. “I’m pregnant.”

  Her eyes got wide as saucers. “What? Are you sure?”

  “Yes. Omg, can you believe I am pregnant?”

  “Whoa, what!” Lucy grins. “This is soo cool. I’m going to be an aunt.”

  “I know. I’m soo excited.” Lucy and I danced around the living room.

  “Shit, we need to get jobs!” All of a sudden Lucy was really serious. Maybe we need to move Jen; we can’t even afford this rent now. How are we going to save for a kid?”

  I didn’t know how to answer her. I didn’t want to tell her that Hamilton wanted to marry me and I wanted to say yes. I just didn’t think she would understand.

  “I don’t know Lucy. Where would we go?” I paused. “I mean we can’t afford to pay a deposit for a new place.” We already knew we weren’t going to get this deposit back as we had used it to pay rent a few months ago.

  “Maybe we can move to Colorado like we talked about before and maybe Hamilton will pay child support?” Lucy looked at me hopefully. I wanted to tell her that I was going to be living with Hamilton, but didn’t know how to tell her. Here she was making plans for us: for me and my baby.

  “Yeah maybe.”

  “We’ll be rich Jen. You can take him to Court for child support if he doesn’t want to pay.”

  “Yeah, we can buy a house in Aspen and ski all day. No more jobs to us. Thanks baby. Thanks Hamilton.” I played along not wanting to hurt her.

  “I think not Jenny. I think not.” A deep voice interrupted us and I looked behind me and saw a murderous looking Hamilton staring at me. Oh shit, how much had he heard?

  “If you even think that you can use me to run off to another State while taking my money, you are sadly mistaken. You may be a money grubbing whore but you will not take me for a ride.”

  I looked at him in shock.

  “No Hamilton. I need to explain. You don’t understand.” I grabbed his arm.

  “I think I understand enough Jenny. Your gleeful laughs woke me up and then I come out here to hear you talking about using me so you can move to Aspen and live a life of leisure. What I didn’t get from that was what you intended to do with our baby?”

  “I didn’t mean it, Hamilton please listen to me.” I pleaded with him as he walked to the door. I could see all the light gone from his eyes and he looked at me in disdain.

  “I suggest you get yourself a job Jenny. I won’t be paying for anything until I get a DNA test.” And with that he slammed out of the door. I fell onto the couch in tears. What had I done? Lucy looked at me in shock.

  “What’s going on Jenny?”

  “He wanted to marry me Luce, he wanted to marry me.” I cried.

  “He did?” She looked at me incredulously. “But what, oh my.” She realized that our conversation has misled him as to my intentions. “Go after him Jenny, go and explain.”

  “No, Lucy. What’s the point? He will always do this to me. I’m not strong enough to deal with a man like him.”

  “Jenny, I’m so sorry.”

  “It’s okay Lucy. It’s okay.”

  And then I went and cried myself to sleep. I was jobless, broke and about to have a baby.

  Chapter 7

  It’s been 3 months since that day: the day that Hamilton left me i
n my apartment and walked out of my life. I had tried hard to ignore the pain that was emanating from my heart. It didn’t even make sense; certainly not to Lucy and not to me. How could I be in love with a man I had only met twice? I didn’t know. All I did know was that I was carrying his baby and he wanted nothing to do with me.
