Eden had decided that she would reschedule her meeting with Caesar because even though she didn't agree with his previous remarks about her she now knew she needed the money.
She was now officially 1 month pregnant and Jackson said with both her and her donor being taken advantage of by the clinic that it was going to be a long enduring process. Jackson didn't see a way for it to be solved in her favor and without it going public. He then suggested that they settle out of court and maybe even a custody agreement that was set in stone.
Eden wasn't a fan of anything he had suggested but the last thing she wanted was to go to court, her business out in the media, and her baby in an all-out tug of war for shared custody with a stranger.
It was only after hearing that the donor had cancer and this was likely his last chance to have a kid made Eden more susceptible to hearing him out, so after a few weeks of their lawers talking they finally agreed to meet without lawyers and to just talk and see if they could come up with an agreement.
The donor still remained anonymous and it only made her more curious to who he actually was.
She even did a search but nothing came up for a celebrity with cancer, at least not as of lately.
She was sure he was some rich old man like bill Gates, especially the way Jackson acted.
As she sat in the empty meeting room she glanced around.
"Defintely rich." She said.
Eden found herself humming and grabbed her notepad.
It was a random thing she had picked up over the years as a writer.
"Your date had some things prepared before your arrival." A waitress walked in with a spread of fruits and veggies.
On the opposite side were cakes, cookies, and pies.
"What the hell." Eden mumbled.
She had to admit they were things she liked and even random things she had been craving.
"Well if you need anything else let us know, I'm your server Paris." The woman said before she exited leaving Eden to curiously walk around the food.
As she did so, Caesar walked into the restaurant alone with his hat pulled down as far as possible.
As he did he noticed a woman with the name tag Paris pass him without a second glance.
He had actually become used to that.
Caesar was glad that he had Palmer make reservations in a back meeting room, he did order food, mostly on his family's suggestion. Hana had told everyone about the whole donor situation and then explained the mix-up. Surprisingly enough they all didn't think it was weird and teased him for having a baby with a woman of every background.
It was Ocean's idea to order food. She and Hana compiled their cravings and Dolores made her suggestions with his aunt. It was a team effort like no other. All that was left was to get the mother to agree to give him his child, or so he thought.
Caesar walked into the meeting room shutting the door and Eden, was now in front of the fruit table turned around and looked at him.
She was mid-bite as she stood with a full mouth.
Caesar was sure there was a mistake.
"Oh hey, I think there must be a mix-up. I still would love to talk to you about working with you. Honestly." He said still confused.
"But I'm meeting someone else here." He said and she nodded.
"Same, this room is actually reserved." She said trying not to seem rude but she was just as confused as Caesar was.
