“Miss Edwards, I need your signature on this consent form for artificial insemination surgery,” said the lawyer as he presented the document to Ariana Edwards.

Ariana gripped the pen tightly, her knuckles turning white as she stared at the consent form.

The surgery was scheduled for tomorrow, and today was her wedding.

The donor of the sperm was none other than Theodore Anderson, the eldest son of the wealthy Anderson family, and also her groom.

The Anderson family, known for their fixation on succession and legacy, was desperate to ensure Theodore’s bloodline would continue. So his father, Darian Anderson, took it upon himself to get his son a wife. The sperm that Theodore froze years ago was going to be inseminated into the bride’s womb before he died.
