Summary
At 21, Penelope Featherington is a prodigy, finishing her PhD in Biomedical Engineering at Oxford, having skipped nearly a decade of schooling. She is brilliant, studious, and entirely focused on her academic future. A routine, minor gynecological check-up at a top-tier London clinic is supposed to be a quick, forgettable appointment.
However, in a catastrophic technological and administrative error, the clinic’s artificial intelligence system malfunctions during a routine procedure. Penelope is accidentally inseminated with a frozen sample belonging to the exclusive "elite donor" list—a sample belonging to 28-year-old Colin Bridgerton, frozen two years prior during a hedonistic, restless phase of his life before he assumed a higher role in his family's mysterious "shipping conglomerate."
The Bridgertons are not just famous billionaires; they are the heads of the world’s most powerful, elite mafia organization, running legitimate empires alongside shadowy, ruthless enterprises. Penelope, a middle-class student, is a complete stranger to them.
When the clinic realizes the error, they try to cover it up, but the pregnancy is already viable.Bookmarked by Waterguy6789123

“It is insane.”

“I can give you a hundred!”

Summary
Penelope is quiet for a long while after he nodded his head and confirmed he was inquiring about whether or not she has changed her mind about having a baby with him.
"I…" she starts before swallowing once. "Well, I suppose as the years have gone on… I have imagined it a time or two, yes."
Colin knows she is telling the truth, and for the first time in a long time, he is also able to read her and surmise there is more still she is holding back.
"Is that something you wish for?" he asks cautiously. "A babe? One of your own?"
Pen's big, pale blue eyes blink at him twice slowly before she starts nibbling on her lip in a decidedly nervous gesture. "That is… We did not… We married for other purposes. I do not expect—"
"I am not asking what you expect," he interrupts, keeping his tone gentle, though, so as not to scare her out of this spell of vulnerability he's found her in tonight. "I am asking simply what you desire for yourself. Do you want a baby, Pen?"
"Yes."
--
Or, regency era Penelope and Colin have been in marriage of convenience for five years and decide to have a child together—platonically of course.
