Elijah Theodore Martinez

I don't know what to do.

The moment I saw Eliana collapse hard onto the floor, my heart started pounding wildly with fear. I wanted to hurt everyone around me—especially the woman who was responsible for all of this. But I couldn't do anything, especially when I saw Eliana writhing in pain.

"Eliana!" I called anxiously as I rushed to her side.

Her eyes were tightly shut, and she clutched her lower abdomen as she struggled against the pain.

"Theo..." Therese called softl

    Eliana Grace HerreraIt was already past ten by the time we finished our dinner, and throughout the entire meal, Theo's expression had been impossible to read. Instead of sitting across from me, he had moved his chair beside mine so he could stay as close to me as possible."Do you want anything else to eat?" he asked softly, leaning down slightly. One of his arms rested on the back of my chair while his other hand held mine on top of the table.I shook my head before reaching for my glass of water."I'm full, Theo. What about you? Do you want to eat anything else? The night's still young, and I don't mind waiting for you," I replied with a smile.Like me, he simply shook his head before raising his hand to call over a waiter who had been standing nearby."I'm good too. Let's get the bill," he said.After paying, Theo helped me to my feet since I was wearing high heels. He never removed the arm wrapped around my waist until we finally reached his car.As he drove, he kept stealing gla

  • Billionaire’s Surrogate (ENGLISH)   Chapter 48: Dinner Date

    Elijah Theodore MartinezEliana took a week to recover after her miscarriage. From time to time, she would go back to her family home to visit her siblings, but by nightfall, she would always return to my condo. Not once did we talk about her surrogate contract or what we should do now that the baby conceived through our IVF was gone. Over the past few days, we had simply focused on helping each other heal. Somehow, little by little, it was helping us recover from the tragedy we had both endured."You're home so early. I'm not done cooking yet," Eliana said in slight panic when she saw me walk into the unit we were staying in.Ever since she was discharged from the hospital, I hadn't left her unit anymore. Before, I would only stay here at night and still return to the neighboring unit that I had bought. But now, I had practically moved all of my belongings here. We were basically living together with the way things were between us.I immediately walked over to the kitchen to see what

  • Billionaire’s Surrogate (ENGLISH)   Chapter 47: Stay

    Elijah Theodore MartinezIt was almost midnight by the time I returned to my condo. I found Calix in the living room, talking to his girlfriend on the phone. The moment he saw me, he quickly ended the call."Sir Theo..." he greeted me immediately as he stood up to face me.I walked straight to the kitchen and placed my jacket on the countertop. "How's Eliana?" I asked while grabbing a bottle of cold water.Since my unit wasn't very big, even though Calix was in the living room and I was in the kitchen, I could still see and hear him clearly."She woke up about an hour after you left. She was looking for you, but I just told her you had some important work to take care of. I also managed to get her to eat a little and take her medicine. Just make sure to feed her again when she wakes up," he explained.I walked back over to him and sat beside him. "Thank you for looking after Eliana while I was away," I said sincerely. "It's already late. I have another unit on this floor—you can stay

    Elijah Theodore MartinezI drove as fast as I could until I reached our mansion, the place where I knew Therese was staying. I didn't even bother parking my car properly because of my overwhelming anger and urgency. As soon as I stepped inside the house, I found Dad sitting in his wheelchair after the accident he had suffered not long ago, comforting the woman I hated more than anyone else."Elias, I don't know what to do anymore. I never meant for that woman to get hurt. All I wanted was to help you and your son and make up for my mistakes. If I had known your son's girlfriend was there and that she was pregnant, I would have been much more careful," I heard her pleading pitifully to my father."Liar!" I shouted angrily, my voice echoing through the room and instantly drawing both of their attention."Theo, my son!" Therese immediately stood up and was about to approach me, but I quickly stepped back and raised my hand to stop her."Don't you dare come near me, because I can't promis

    Elijah Theodore MartinezEliana and I stayed in the hospital overnight, and our tears never stopped as we mourned the loss of our child.It only became worse when Anton entered our room, carrying a small glass container filled with liquid. Inside was our baby—our baby that Eliana and I had lost.He was so small, but he was already a baby.He had tiny hands and feet. His facial features were already almost complete. We could clearly see his little nose, his eyes, his tiny mouth, and his ears.He was so small, but he was already our baby.Our baby that we lost."Theo!..." Eliana cried out my name louder as she held our little angel close to her chest."I'm here. Just cry as much as you need to. I'm right here. I will stay beside you," I comforted her while gently rubbing her shoulder.We stayed in that position for several hours before Eliana finally spoke again."Theo... can I keep him?" she asked, referring to our child.I nodded while wiping away the few tears that continued to fall

Therese called softly from beside me.I couldn't even bring myself to look at her. My entire body was trembling with rage. I still hadn't recovered from what happened to Dad, and now the same thing was happening to Eliana. Everything that had happened to them was because of one woman."Move!" I shouted.I carefully lifted Eliana into my arms and ran as fast as I could, desperate to get her to the hospital before it was too late.While driving, I immediately called Anton to tell him what had happened. I also told hi
