However Dominic Sinclair is very quickly rising through the ranks and making a play for the top spot. Mike and Kate’s betrayal hurt so much because I cared for them both, but Sinclair might be the first person I’ve encountered who I dislike this strongly after so short a time.

“There is no offer you could ever make me that would convince me to give you my child.” I tell him sharply. “I am not for sale, and neither is my baby.”
“Now you’re just being stubborn.” Sinclair sighs, “digging in your heels because you don’t like me.”
“What gave it away?” I deride. For the second time, it seems like he wants to smile despite his better judgment, but again he holds back.
“Use your head, Ella.” He instructs patronizingly. “Let’s say I believe you didn’t do this just to cash in on a big pay day.”
“You obviously don’t!” I interrupt, earning myself a look so stern a shiver runs down my spine.

“Mistake or malice, my sperm ended up in your womb – a place it never should have been.” His foreboding expression softens for
precious charges again, but I don’t know if I can get past their mother’s cruelty. “Money can’t fix everything.” I reply, “and all

I grew up an orphan and know how many children need good homes. In truth Sinclair is offering me the world on a platter – my baby gets to live and have a good life, all my problems will be solved, and I can adopt a child that needs a mother as badly as I need to be one. Am I being silly, holding onto my childhood baggage about wanting to be part of a family bonded through more than just affection, a family bonded by blood? After all, blood is no guarantee of love
Knowing my baby will be loved and cared for, will have to be enough. It’s the best solution for us both, and the fact that it hurts so badly doesn’t
