Secured my Future

At 37, my life was going nowhere, and I had no relationships worth talking about. I took a job as a private nurse for a rich older man (59). He had no family of his own; he had lung cancer caused by working in a dusty environment. He was responding well to the treatment and was released to his home. Hence, the employment of a nurse. I'm nothing special in looks but have a nice body and am about average in looks. I quickly picked up that he regretted not having a family of his own. His health prevented him from seeking a woman to marry and start a family. I thought I wouldn't ever have a family myself, mainly because the men I had dated wouldn't be able to support me or any child we had well enough. I had seen married couples struggling to get by, both working long hours just to survive. Then an idea came to me: if I were to give my employer a child. At least I would have a better future, even if we were not married. I waited until he was in better health than when I started working for him. We would go for walks on his estate, longer each time. We talked while we were walking, and he mentioned he would have liked to have had a family. I answered So would I, hoping he would ask me about having a child for him. He didn't, but I wasn't going to push myself forward. Most men don't like pushy women; I would let it hang, as they say. Several more walks followed; no more said, then. Without any prior notice, he asked me about having a child for him, like a surrogate. Offering to pay me to carry his child; I was willing, but also wanted access to the child. At first, I thought he wasn't willing to have me stay around after the birth. But he decided it would be better for the child to have both parents around. We came to a business agreement, you could say. We wouldn't marry; I would be his private nurse and mother to his child. Medical checks followed; I passed them all, and I opted for straight sex instead of IVF. He accepted; we started trying, and after several months, I got pregnant. I had our son in 2023 and got pregnant again in late 2024. A daughter, whose birth was troublesome and meant I couldn't have any more children. But our daughter was healthy; I am still his nurse and sometimes lover. But I care for our children; he is still in remission despite a couple of scares.
