Shehnaaz had gone to the hotel to meet Mr. Sidharth Shukla . While in conversation with him, she got to know that he wasn't married. Shehnaaz was shocked when he revealed the truth to her. She pulled herself together and asked, "What?What did you just say? Mr. Sidharth, you are not married. I thought that you and your wife would have been planning for a baby and that is why I was called here. "

"Yes, you have guessed it right, but partially. I certainly want to have a baby and I have sought your help in this regard. Only if you do not have any problems, "Sidharth replied to her.

Shehnaaz responded quickly, "umm...No way...There is nothing like that. Actually, I thought that it would be a married couple to whom I would render my service. "

Yeah, I understand. Whether I am married or not, this shouldn't be a matter of concern. You can trust me on that. " He responded assuringly.

"As you have mentioned, you are not married. And also, you are young in age. Then why do you want a baby through surrogacy? Why did you choose this medium to have kids through? "Shehnaaz inquired, confusingly.

Sidharth inclined forward and posed a serious expression on his face before making a statement. His eyes looked intense when they were focused on shehnaaz.

"Look, Miss shehnaaz, before we talk any further, I would like to make a few things clear to you. I don't like being questioned or interrogated. And you're not supposed to ask me questions. This should not be your matter of concern. Why in the world am I doing this? Or why have I chosen surrogacy to have a baby and all of that? If we proceed further with the contract, you will have to be cautious about this in the future too, "he stated seriously.

Shehnaaz had her eyes glued to sidharth . She was somewhere lost in his deep blue eyes. His voice had a husky pitch and sounded rough. It was weird for shehnaaz to hear him say that he wasn't married but wanted to have a baby through surrogacy. She could not process the thought.

Shehnaaz leaned back on the couch in a relaxed manner and asked her after a few seconds of silence, "You are pursuing a law degree?"Aren't you? "

Shehnaaz was confused to be asked such a question, and her eyes grew wide in surprise.

"How did you know that?" She questioned

"If you remember, you filled out a form at the fertility centre and mentioned your educational qualification in the application form," Sidharth replied, smiling.I went through the form once, while shortlisting you for surrogacy. "

Shehnaaz nodded her head in affirmation and asserted, "yes... I'm just a semester away from completing my degree. I will soon become a law graduate. "

"Do you have any boyfriends, Miss shehnaaz ?" Sidharth asked his next question.

This particular question left her feeling awkward. Shehnaaz did not expect sidharth to ask such a question of her.

She was irritated as she replied, "no, I don't have a boyfriend, but what does it even matter?How is having a boyfriend related to surrogacy? "

"It does matter to me," Sidharth said, looking her in the eyes. "In fact, it's a great matter of concern for me, Miss shehnaaz. Anyways, you have mentioned in your profile that you haven't had a physical relationship with anyone yet.

This was yet another awkward question that Sidharth had asked. With every passing minute, her desire to walk out of the room grew stronger. Shehnaaz was agitated when asked such weird questions by him. She wondered how these questions were related to the surrogacy procedure.

Shehnaaz had to control her restlessness as she replied, "Yes, I have never had physical relations with anyone. And I'm sure this question was highly important for you to get the answer to. "
