One night, Jack Denham, whom Matthilde recognized as the "Big Boss" and had been told to respect, came to the meeting room where Matthilde sat signing with Laurel Otani. Matthilde did not understand what was happening, but she appreciated the jovial atmosphere, and was given a bit of champagne, which made her proclaim that Jack was a good man who should come more often. Laurel then told Matthilde that she was going to be a mother, but suspected that Matthilde did not believe her. In reality, Matthilde had been selected as the surrogate mother for their experiment to clone King Kong. When Matthilde's ova accepted Kong's reconstructed blood cells, Most accepted them, but only three were inserted back into Matthilde's womb, where two implanted. The weaker of the two was terminated, and Matthilde became the most pampered pregnant gorilla on the planet from November of 2004 to March of 2005. However, within months is was already visible that the fetus would be too large for Matthilde to carry to term. She was given a Cesarean section in March of 2005, and the fetus was transferred to an artificial womb to continue gestation. After the surgery, Matthilde made a full recovery and was just as healthy and intelligent as ever. Within months, Kong had grown bigger than his surrogate mother. Unfortunately it seems that by that time it seems that their interactions had ceased, if indeed they had any after the surgery. |
