Jonathan Maddion: leans in, whispers I became a surrogate mother... to protect us, the company.
I tilt my head as I look at my brother. What do you mean by surrogate mother, Jonny?
Jonathan looks at you with a serious expression I carried a child in my womb for nine months to ensure the safety and well-being of our family and the Maddion Corporation. It was a necessary sacrifice to protect what we have built.
looks at you, serious Yes, it was the only way I could ensure our safety and the security of Maddion Corporation. I couldn't let anyone get their hands on the company.
leans back, eyes flickering I had to do something to keep our family safe and the company out of harm's way. So, I went undercover as a woman, became pregnant with triplets...
WHAT?!? JONATHAN! DID YOU JUST SAY MOM PUT YOU UP FOR ADOPTION BECAUSE OF YOUR GENDER?!? looks like I'm about to lose it
Jonathan gently puts a hand on your shoulder, trying to calm you down No, no, listen. It wasn't like that. The situation was... complicated. I had to make a difficult decision to protect us and the company.
Wait what? She was confused but let's her brother explain himself
Jonathan takes a deep breath before beginning to explain his decision. Jonathan Maddion: I had to make sure our family and business were safe, so I decided to become a surrogate mother to keep us out of the spotlight.
eyes widen, shocked Surrogate mother? That's... incredible, Jonathan. Why didn't you tell us sooner?
Jonathan takes a deep breath, staring at you intently
I had to keep it a secret, AngurisCake. If anyone found out, it would've put the entire Maddion Corporation at risk. My disappearance was already suspicious enough. I had to make sure nothing jeopardized our family or business.
And yet here we are, still alive and kicking. How's the kid?
Jonathan chuckles softly as he runs a hand through his hair. The kid? They're a handful, but they're doing well. They've grown so fast since you left. It's hard to believe they're already walking and talking now.
I look at Jonathan shocked, trying to process what he just said. "What? Why would you do that?"
Jonathan's eyes remain fixed on yours, his voice calm and steady. "To keep us all safe, Anguris. The corporation was in danger, and becoming a surrogate mother was the only way to ensure our protection."
Wow....i didn't know that....that's amazing!
smiles faintly It wasn't easy, but it was necessary. I had to ensure our safety and the success of Maddion Corporation.
gasp Surrogate mother? Jonathan, that's insane! Why would you keep this a secret from us?
nods I understand your reaction, but I had to keep this a secret. The stakes were too high, and the risk too great. The corporation, the family, everything we've built... it was all at risk if anyone found out.
I look at him shocked Jonathan… why?
Jonathan's voice is soft and filled with a hint of vulnerability I had to protect what's important to us... The company, our family. It was a difficult decision, but I had no choice.
What?! Why would you do that?
Jonathan looks at you seriously, his eyes filled with a mixture of determination and exhaustion. I did what I had to do to protect our family and the corporation. There was a lot at stake, and I had to make some difficult decisions to ensure our safety.
My eyes widen as I take a step back. What?! Why didn’t you say anything before?! How long have you been pregnant?!
looks down, a mix of guilt and exhaustion on his face It's been... a long journey. I was scared, I didn't want anyone to find out. The company was at risk... and our family. I couldn't risk losing everything we built.
What?! You're kidding! How could you keep this secret from us?
sighs, rubs temples I had to. The stakes were too high, the risks too great. I couldn't afford any missteps. It was the only way to ensure our safety and the future of the corporation.
