Why not

I (52) own a business and am divorced, no ongoing payments to my ex-wife and she has remarried. My business does fairly well, and I employ 5 staff members all women, mostly married. The one exception is also the youngest of them at 34, not bad looking and divorced has one child a girl now 4. As her ex-husband left and didn't pay any support, she was having quite a hard time making ends meet. Normally I wouldn't care or take any notice, but the availability of single/unattached women in our area is quite limited. Her being the closest to my age group that was passable in looks. I just wanted a fuck every so often no relationship required. At first, I wasn't thinking of trying it on with her, but then her rental was condemned as unsafe after an electrical fire highlighted its many deficiencies. She was in a bind, nothing she could afford was available and even moving away wasn't an option for her. I'd had a spare house, cottage really just 2bedrooms and it was right next door to my 4bedroom home. I hadn't thought of renting it out, only bought it to stop someone redeveloping the site. If rented it would be too expensive for her anyway. But as you probably already realized I'm quite mercenary in my outlook on life. Her desperation and my wanting a sex life again since before my divorce. Well, I finally got the idea of using her desperation to my advantage and made her the offer of free rent and utilities for her sexual services. I held all the cards as they say and she was shocked, but in position to refuse. Mainly because child services were investigating her ability to care for her daughter. No suitable home they would take her daughter for certain, so she agreed and I'd to meet with the child services to convince them she would be employed long term. It was easy as I said she was a trusted employee, and I was willing to watch out for her. Otherwise, I would've let her have the cottage, with them off her back. I started my use of her regular sex, but I'm not totally heartless. I do treat her well, helping out with little things like groceries. Mainly because she cooks my meals, getting to and from work (dropping off her daughter on the way) and as I said utilities. I pay low wages, but without utilities and grocery costs her financial situation improved. My sex life became very satisfying to me, and I think she gets enjoyment as well. That was March 2023, and she has since moved in with me. At first because my home and cottage were purchased by the city to enlarge the intersection for large trucks. I bought another 4bedroom home and had her move in with to keep the sex continuing. But like they say mistakes happen and I got her pregnant, my fault as I used an old condom, I'd found in my desk drawer. I used condoms mainly to stop accidental pregnancies, she didn't take precautions because I used condoms. My being a cheapskate caused her to get pregnant, but I was by that time really comfortable with them living with me. Once she tested positive to being pregnant, I took the easy way and married her. Thus, saving myself her wages as my wife she isn't on the payroll anymore. But she has access to my bank account, but she isn't a big spender. We also going shopping together mostly and I'm quite happy that she got pregnant. It improved my life even more than before and I'm in the process of adopting her daughter.
