I Watch My Best Friend Steal My Baby
In my past life, I wanted to have a mixed-race baby, so I went for IVF.
At that time, Elena mocked me, saying I was raising a child for a foreigner and called me an idiot. But half a month later, I was taken abroad.
It turned out the sperm I chose belonged to Andrew Miller, a foreign prince with eight nationalities mixed.
Andrew not only wanted to marry me but also promised our child would inherit the royal family.
Later, my child and I were highly valued by the royal family, and the jewelry I wore was so much it almost bent my waist.
Meanwhile, Elena, due to excessively promoting feminism, angered her partners, got fired by the company, and was blacklisted in the entire industry.
When we were hosting a first birthday party for my son, Elena spent all her savings on a ticket to come find me.
But when I went to greet her, she actually dropped my son to his death and splashed concentrated sulfuric acid on me.
She cursed, "Why are you so lucky? You don't deserve it, you bitch!"
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day I asked Elena to accompany me for IVF.
*****
Elena said, "I really want to have a mixed-race baby, so I want this mixed-race sperm."
She always claimed to be against marriage and said having kids was a waste of life. But now, she pushed me away, not letting me get close to the iPad displaying the sperm information.
Seeing Elena's excited expression, I knew she had been reborn too.
Seeing me staring at the iPad in her hand without speaking, Elena rolled her eyes impatiently.
She said, "It's just a mixed-race sperm. There are other sperm here too. As a good friend, why are you so petty?"
"You don't even know the information about this sperm donor. I'm helping you eliminate risks."
If Elena could control her smile, her words might be a bit more believable.
But her eyes were full of excitement, unable to hide her smile.
I shook my head, then suddenly, as if I had figured it out, said, "Elena, I think you're right. Having kids is a waste of life. So, I’m not planning to have any."
Hearing my words, Elena looked at me in confusion. "Really? But didn't you insist on having a child before because you knew who the owner of this sperm was?"
Elena thought I wanted to have a child because I knew the identity of the sperm donor, but she didn't know I was just trying to complete the task my mom assigned me.
I had no idea that sperm belonged to Andrew.
As if discovering a secret, Elena's eyes widened, and her cheeks turned red with excitement.
Hearing me say I wouldn't proceed with the IVF, the staff looked a bit shocked. She reminded me, "Ms. Sanchez, you already paid a $30,000 deposit when booking your slot. If you want to book again, it'll cost 0-000,000. Are you sure you don't want to go through with it?"
I quickly shook my head and firmly said, "I'm sure."
Hearing me say that, Elena immediately told the staff to bring the contract quickly.
As for the part about explaining IVF precautions and risk notifications, she skipped it entirely.
Elena said, "I'm just having a child. I have a feeling the father of my child will be someone important. As long as I give birth to him, I'll have endless wealth for a lifetime."
I couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Of course, I knew why she was so confident.
That's because in my previous life, after choosing this sperm, Andrew found me half a month later and took me back to his country for a grand wedding, while her life kept getting worse.
Elena attributed the difference between her and my experiences to a matter of opportunity.
So in this life, the first thing she did was snatch the sperm I was going to choose and become a princess.
Soon, Elena signed the contract.
As soon as she walked out of the lab, she sent her resignation to the company.
I looked at her in surprise.
Elena, however, sneered and said, "I have a feeling that it won't be long before I reach the peak of my life."
"You don't plan to have kids and only have a low-paying job, so just wait to be someone who works hard their whole life."
After saying that, she turned and left without hesitation, then took a cab to a luxury mall.
Watching Elena's smug back, I couldn't help but laugh.
In my heart, I said, "Elena, do you want to be a princess? Then I wish you well. When you learn the truth, I hope you can still laugh like you did today."
After Elena resigned, all her work was assigned to me by our boss.
While I was busy, my colleagues suddenly exclaimed.
A girl said, "Elena, you're so different today."
I looked up and saw Elena walking into the office with designer bags in both hands.
She proudly raised her head, touched her belly, and said, "This is nothing. My son is about to inherit a country."
Everyone immediately thought Elena had gone crazy.
After all, previously in the company, no matter who was dating or getting married, Elena would always mock them.
She thought those people were crazy and said having kids was not as worthwhile as investing in oneself.
But in just a few days, Elena suddenly announced she was pregnant.
However, when colleagues heard that Elena had already sold her house, they kindly advised her.
A woman said, "How could someone with status donate sperm? Elena, don't be fooled."
Elena immediately rolled her eyes.
She said, "Do you think I'm as dumb as Athena? How could I possibly not know who the father is and still go for IVF?"
"If I had her brains, I would have been ashamed enough to kill myself."
Then, Elena took a stack of invitations out of her bag and tossed them onto my desk.
She said, "In five days, my husband will come to pick me up. Come to this location, and I'll show you the world."
After saying that, she turned and left with an arrogant expression.
Everyone was already busy with work, and her commotion made them all very upset.
A female colleague said, "Athena, isn't Elena your good friend? Has she gone crazy? How could she imagine a wealthy husband?"
"Besides, how much money could someone who donates sperm have? Where does her strong sense of superiority come from?"
Another female colleague chimed in, "She even sold her house and bought a bunch of luxury clothes and bags. How will she raise her child later? When I was preparing for pregnancy before, she even scolded me."
Elena's behavior annoyed everyone, and they all urged me to cut ties with someone so irrational.
But not long after, Elena shared a high-end hotel's location in the company group chat.
She also sent a message: [This Saturday, my husband will host a banquet here. Make sure to come. This is one of your rare chances to experience high society.]
Everyone didn't expect that Elena had truly become distinguished and was living a superior life.
That high-end hotel is famously expensive in the entire city.
Even a bottle of mineral water there can sell for thousands of dollars.
Elena's Instagram is full of photos showing off her wealth, and she even tagged me in every single one.
In the photos, she's wearing custom-made luxury jewelry, smiling smugly.
A trace of gloom flashed in my eyes, and I let out a cold snort.
I said to myself, "Go ahead and laugh. It won't be long before you can't."
That Saturday, my coworkers dragged me to the hotel.
A female colleague said, "I don't believe Elena could be so lucky to pick a billionaire's sperm. She was so arrogant slandering you before. We have to go and see."
As soon as we arrived at the hotel entrance, we saw a photo of Elena with a foreign man.
When she saw me, Elena smugly clung to the man's arm and walked toward me.
She said, "Isn't this my broke little friend? I thought you wouldn't come."
"After all, you don't have my eye for spotting wealth, so you couldn't pick the right sperm for IVF. You must be really jealous of me, right?"
Elena's eyes are indeed "sharp," so sharp that she didn't even notice the man beside her had no love in his gaze for her.
So, I smiled faintly and said, "No, I'm really happy for you."
Elena formally introduced her husband to us, the foreign prince Andrew.
She said, "My husband said as soon as my child is born, he'll make him the heir. You still have time to win my favor."
"Otherwise, with just one word from me, your company will go bankrupt. Athena, by then, you'll be out of a job too."
Everyone could clearly sense that something was wrong. However, Elena was still immersed in her dream.
Colleague Sophie Hall pulled me aside while Elena was showing off to the other colleagues.
She said, "What prince would donate sperm? Besides, their hierarchy is so strict, how could they let a prince marry a foreign woman and have their child inherit the throne?"
However, Andrew was indeed very generous to Elena.
Elena just threw a tantrum, feeling that her jewelry was too light.
In just half an hour, a haute couture designer personally arrived on-site to design and create jewelry for her.
Seeing everyone's envious looks, Elena became even more smug.
In my past life, Andrew treated me the same way.
I just had a little morning sickness, but he got so nervous and called the world's top doctors with a single phone call.
But, like Sophie, I was very confused inside.
Andrew and I had never met before. How could he treat me so well just because I was carrying his child?
Even the entire royal family treated me like a treasure?
I'm just an ordinary person. Besides carrying Andrew's child, there's nothing about me that deserves their special attention.
So, I kept paying attention secretly and finally discovered that secret.
Unfortunately, Elena is now lost in the sweet trap of sudden wealth and has no mind to think further.
A kind colleague advised her to be careful, but she scolded that colleague.
She said, "You're just jealous of me. I'm beautiful, independent, and smart. What's wrong with my husband falling in love with me at first sight?"
Andrew also made a heartfelt confession to Elena in front of all of us in broken English.
He gently stroked Elena's belly, but his eyes revealed a hint of madness that only I noticed.
Seeing me staring at Andrew, Elena got angry instantly.
She rushed over, pushed me down, and angrily threw her shoe at my face, hitting my forehead.
Elena scolded, "Athena, how shameless can you be? Why are you staring at my husband?"
Just as she was about to keep hitting me, Andrew sternly restrained her.
He said, "You're pregnant, you can't mess around. If the baby is gone, I'll kill you."
Everyone could see that, in Andrew's eyes, the baby was clearly more important than Elena.
But Elena truly has something wrong with her mind.
She said, "See how much my husband loves me. He even said he'd kill me if we lost our child. He values our fruit of love so much."
When she mentioned "fruit of love," Andrew's eyes clearly revealed strong disgust.
While Elena was being held by Andrew, my colleagues quickly helped me up.
They originally wanted to scold Elena, but since she really seemed to be becoming a princess, they didn’t dare.
In the end, I waved my hand and said, "Let's not bother with her."
I silently added in my heart, "Because nine months later, she will live in great pain."
