Chapter 108
There wasn’t any warmth in his voice as he sneered, “Am I such a despicable man in your eyes that I didn’t even want to get married to have a child? And you think I even went for surrogacy to have my own children?”
Josephine said, “What else?”
Ragnar was dumbstruck upon hearing what Josephine said.
Ragnar took a deep breath and held back all the anger in his heart. He said, “I’m not the kind of man who will let any woman. give birth to my child. I’ve never touched any woman before you. So, you are my first woman, and you will be my last one. It’s even more impossible for me to go for surrogacy!”
The woman’s thoughts startled him. Ragnar had to explain the whole situation to her patiently.
Otherwise, he would die from frustration sooner or later.
For the first time, he didn’t want others to misunderstand him.
Josephine was shocked when she heard his words.
She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. He said that she was his first woman.
However, he was an experienced man in that matter.
Moreover, he had two children who looked like they were carved out of him.
How could he lie through his teeth in front of her?
“That’s impossible!” At once, Josephine refuted him.
Ragnar asked, “Why is it impossible?”
“You are so experienced. How could it be your first time?”
Ragnar’s sullen face softened a lot after Josephine’s words. “Don’t you know that men are instinctive in this aspect?”
Josephine was rendered speechless.
She was not a man. There was no way she would know about that.
Although Ragnar said so, Josephine still didn’t believe him.
The children looked so similar to him.
Suddenly, something seemed to cross her mind, and she said, “Oh, I understand it now!”
Ragnar asked. “What do you understand?”
“If you didn’t go for surrogacy, Danny and Manny must be test tube babies.”
Ragnar fell silent. He almost got a laugh out of Josephine’s imagination.
He stretched out his hand and gave Josephine a flick on her forehead. “I really admire your rich imagination.”
“Am I wrong?” Josephine asked.
“Of course, you are!” Ragnar shook his head resignedly. “Danny and Manny are not my biological sons.”
“What?”
Josephine’s jaws almost dropped when she heard Ragnar’s words.
She stood dumbfounded on the spot and couldn’t believe what she just heard.
For fear that she might hear it wrong, Josephine asked again, “What did you just say?”
Seeing her so surprised, Ragnar decided to tell her everything so that she wouldn’t misunderstand him again.
He added, “I said, Danny and Manny are not my biological sons.”
This time, Josephine heard it clearly, and she was even more confused. “No.”
“What’s wrong?”
“If they are not your biological sons, why do they look so similar to you?” Josephine found the truth unbelievable and unimaginable.
“If Danny and Manny aren’t his own children, how come they look just like him?” she mused.
“Because they are the sons of my twin brother. It’s normal that they look very similar to me.”
Facing Josephine’s question, Ragnar told her the truth without reservation.
Chapter 108
“Your twin brothers?” Josephine looked at him confusedly.
She never heard that Ragnar had a twin brother.
Ragnar looked serious and nodded. There wasn’t any trace of joking when he said, “Yes, Danny and Manny are the sons of my twin brother.”
Before Josephine could ask more questions, Ragnar continued. “My grandfather and grandmother gave birth to a pair of twins, one of whom is my uncle and another is my dad. My uncle didn’t have any children for various reasons. Meanwhile, my father has two children, one of whom is me and the other is my brother, Xavier, Considering that my uncle had not children, my dad let him adopt Xavier. Xavier joined the army when he grew up. He died a year ago when he was defending the country
Ragnar added, “At that time, everyone was sad. Later, Xavier’s girlfriend appeared, and she even fainted due to grief. Her family took her to the hospital and found out that she was pregnant. Unfortunately, my younger brother’s girlfriend was diagnosed with a rare disease, which was life–threatening. She was advised not to keep the babies in her belly.”
He paused for a moment before continuing. “At that time, Grandma heard the news and cried hard. She thought that God was unfair to let Xavier die at such a young age. Later, when there was no other way, she begged my younger brother’s girlfriend to give birth to the babies and promised to give her a sum of money to go abroad for treatment.”
Ragnar went on, “At first, her parents disagreed. Finally, Xavier’s girlfriend cried and said that she wanted to leave a memory for Xavier. Her parents couldn’t change her mind, so they had no choice but to let her give birth to the babies. As soon as the babies were born, we took them over. As for the mother of the baby, her parents sent her abroad for treatment.”
Speaking of this, Ragnar looked at Josephine and said, “In order for Danny and Manny to have a complete family, I took them with me and found you. I wanted to let them experience parental love and have a happy childhood!”
Ragnar felt blessed to have found Josephine.
After hearing this, Josephine finally understood the whole situation.
“Josephine, from now on, they will be our own children. Ragnar looked at her very seriously.
“Okay.”
Josephine nodded. “Don’t worry. Since I have chosen all this, I will definitely treat them like my own children in the next three years.
“What three years?”
Ragnar’s expression turned cold upon the mention of the three years.
He had already told her that the agreement was annulled.
“Why does she keep mentioning the agreement? Ragnar wondered in frustration.
“Ragnar, I know you’ll be unhappy if I say it, but I still have to say it. We are married because of the agreement. Everything will be over in three years. Hence, I understand clearly what I should and shouldn’t do. We can act in front of Grandma Diana about giving birth to a child, but it is impossible for me to really give birth to a child.”
Josephine was speaking her thoughts truthfully.
She hoped that Ragnar would understand.
Ragnar was upset every time Josephine brought up the matter.
His face suddenly darkened. “Our marriage exists and will not end in three years. Besides, I’m telling you now that I will never go for a divorce in my life. So, you, Josephine, will remain my wife for the rest of my life. Not only will our marriage not end, but we will also have children. A bunch of children.”
Every word he said was very domineering.
He didn’t give Josephine a chance to resist.
With enough clarity of the reality, Josephine said, “Ragnar, we don’t love each other. Hmm…”
Before she could finish her words, her lips were sealed.
The kiss was almost like a nibble, a punitive gesture that was filled with anger.
”
Josephine tried to push him away, but Ragnar didn’t give her the chance to do so. Instead, he pushed her against the wall.
From her tone, Ragnar could feel that Josephine seemed to think of leaving as soon as the three–year agreement ended.
This woman was his.
He would never allow it to happen.
