Chapter 802
Ian Grant w
was a fast worker. In less than four hours, he had sorted out all the information and handed it to Katherine Santos.
Katherine was dumbstruck. She did not think that Valerie was serious. When she saw the stack of detailed information, she gave a big sigh
fan simply shrugged. “Take your pick and I’ll arrange the time. These are all the people I’ve carefully chosen.”
Katherine did not know whether to laugh or cry at this point. She knew that Valerie had good intentions so she did not want to disappoint her. Thus, she began browsing. “These three then!”
Jan was taken aback when he saw how carelevy Katherine made her selection. “Are you sure you want these three?”
“Of course. You shortlisted them, didn’t you? I trust your judgment. Let’s start with these three?”
Ian gave her a skeptical look. “Alright.”
In the end, he decided to keep his mouth shut. He would let Katherine decide on her own.
Katherine simply smiled silently. Thereafter, she selected a coffeehouse near the Noria Group’s office. It was well–known for its elegant environment.
The first candidate was a company senior executive and was now the project manager. He was 35 years old and wore gold rimmed glasses. He was dressed in a suit that gave him a refined air, and he also looked like an honest chap.
Katherine observed him. She couldn’t replace any flaw with his appearance, but then again, she wasn’t bothered by looks. She was not one to judge people on their appearance
The moment he saw Katherine, Blind Date No. I was very excited. He knew that Katherine was Mrs. Grant’s good friend. If he could marry Katherine, he would not have to worry about his prospects in the company.
“Miss Santos, you’re even more beautiful than I imagined!” The first thing that came out of this guy’s mouth was a compliment.
Katherine smiled at him. “Mr. Chandler, you are also very handsome and you don’t look your age at all.”
“I’m already past marriageable age. I have delayed marriage for so many years because of work.
“Today’s date was so unexpected. Now that I know you are my date, 1 think it’s very good.”
Katherine smiled. “So you’re willing to accept me?”
“Of course I’m willing!” came the swift reply.
“Then you don’t mind being a stepfather, do you?”
Blind Date No. 1 froze when he heard that. “What? Did you say, stepfather?”
I did
Katherine stroked her belly. “I’m already pregnant. If you marry me, you have to treat my child as your own. I’m actually an easygoing person. You also know my relationship with Mrs. Valerie Grant
“Of course, after we get married, I won’t be able to provide many business connections to you. After all, I’m just running my own business now. You have to give me an allowance of 5,000 dollars per month and you have to pay for my child’s education in the future.
“Because you married me, the Santos family may be able to help you a little, but it won’t be much. Don’t expect a
a windfall
“As for your promotion in the Noria Group, I may not be able to help but I promise you that if you can meet my e
yearliern
Frequirements, after marriage has lasted beyond five years, I may be able to speak up for you. What do you think?”
Katherine caressed her belly as she spoke. Her face was radiating motherly love while Blind Date No. 1 was wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
“Miss Santos, does the child’s father know that you’re pregnand*
Katherine answered frankly, “He doesn’t know. I just wanted a child. As for who the father is, surely that’s not important, is it?”
“Mr. Chandler, I think you’re a smart person. I only want the child and not the father.
“In the future, I may also have children with you, but only if you treat me well. Also, the prenuptial agreement has to state clearly that our individual assets are not shared assets!
“If you can accept all these conditions, we can go for registration now!”

Chapter 802
Katherine took charge every step of the way and frightened Blind Date No. I thoroughly. This woman. Firstly, she wants me to be her unborn child’s father. Secondly, she wants me to raise her child. 1 don’t get any benefits and may be replaced any time…
Not surprisingly, this date found these conditions unacceptable. “Miss Santos, I suddenly remembered that I have some work to clear. I won’t take up your time anymore. I’ll uke my leave first
With that he hurriedly ran away.
Katherine burst into laughter when she saw his reaction. There was still a ten–minute wait before the next candidate. She took a sip of juice and waited patiently.
Soon, the second candidate arrived with a bouquet of flowers. When he saw Katherine, he was taken aback. “Aren’t you Miss Katherine Santos”
Katherine smiled at him. “Oh, it’s you, Mr. Fraser! Are you going on blind dates again!”
“My Mom made me. If I had known it was you, I would have just contacted you directly instead of going through so much trouble.”
Blind Date No. 2 sat down unceremoniously. “My mother told me we are discussing terms of marriage. Go ahead and state your conditions”
Katherine laid down her requirements. “Firstly, you have to agree to be my unborn child’s father and pave the way for the child to succeed in the
future
“Secondly, my child has to have a share of the Fraser family’s assets.
“Child?” Blind Date No. 2 was stumped. Katherine elaborated. I’m pregnant. Congratulations. You will be my child’s father in the future.
Tm sure you know that I have fallen out with the Santos family and severed all ties with them. I don’t have much resources to help you. There will br no shared resources after you marry me, but I can still use your family’s resources. What do you
think
After listening to her. Blind Date No. 7’s face clouded over. “Katherine, you must be crazy. Who would be willing to be a big sucker?
“Of course. I’m not saying you’re not good, but I don’t think I can accept another man’s child and pave the way for him.
“If you still have the backing of your family, perhaps I can consider it. It doesn’t matter if either party leads his own life. It’s just a marriage. But with such terms, I don’t stand to benefit at all. I can’t accept this. Sorry, I’ll take my leave”
Blind Date No. 2 smiled, left the bouquet, and left
Katherine sighed. To be honest, she wasn’t bothered by so many things. Both sides were just using each other. She couldn’t do anything if the other party was not agreeable.
Moreover, her belly was getting bigger day by day. It was not good to keep it a secret. She might as well tell them first. As Valerie said before, if anyone was willing to accept her and if he really had feelings for her, he would definitely accept everything about her.
It was obvious that the second candidate did
pass mutter either.

Katherine sighed again and ordered a dessert from the waiter. She got hungry very quickly after getting pregnant. She might as well fill her tummy first.
There was still half an hour before Blind Date No. 3 showed up. There was enough time.
Katherine sat there and waited patiently.
After a while, she saw a figure outside the window. She was a little surprised that Blind Date No. 3 came so early
She had just taken one bite of her dessert when the other party arrived.
Blind Date No. 3 was the scion of one of Kranson City’s families known for producing intellectuals. He was also a doctor and his family’s financial standing was good.
The moment he showed up, Katherine took the initiative to greet him. Dr. Woolerton, you’re quite early!”
Dr. Woolerton smiled. “Of course. I have to come carly since I’m meeting a lady. I didn’t expect you to arrive even earlier!”
