One Night With The Billionaire

Chapter 163: Lunch together



Chase Hudson drove and he suddenly halted and parked by the side of the road. He placed his head on his steering wheel and thought about what Pricillia said.

Maybe he shouldn’t come over to check on her again. Maybe his presence was irritating them and as a matter of fact, he was too mean to her in the past.

He deserved the harsh treatment from the Black’s. He was also harsh and unkind to Rosalinda back then. He’s just getting a fair deal of his inhumane treatment towards her.

He wouldn’t come to her mom’s place to look for her anymore. He would always get in touch through social media and see her in her office, that would be better.

Arianna cleared up her desk and went to meet Jace in the hotel address he’d left her. When she arrived there, Eduardo was waiting for her.

He held the door for her to get in and Arianna did. She stepped in and found Jace was inside, the room was large, a quiet place for business and privacy.

There were sofas and a giant TV, a dining table and a medium sized desk with four chairs surrounding it.

Jace was having his shirt on his pants. His suit was draped over a swivel chair and a different meal was set on the dinning.

“My love,” he said, standing up and walking over to hug her. He kissed her temple and glared into her eyes with a broad smile.

“Darling” Arianna said, circling her hands around his waist and placing her head on his torso. She inhaled his body fragrance as Jace kissed her temple again.

“Come over” he said and pulled a chair out for her. She sat down and he did the same, sitting opposite her. They stared at the meal before them and each picked what he or she wanted.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

They are quiet. Jace just stares at her at intervals. He is madly in love with her. But he is worried if she would accept whatever he says that day.

A part of him assures him that she would listen. He hopes so. If she loves him as much as he does for her, she would accept.

Jace’s phone rang and he saw the caller ID, his mother. They’ve not really seen each other after that day that Chase ruined their supposed dinner.

“Hello mum” Jace said, placing his cutleries down. He glanced at his fiance, she also paused.

“How are you honey?” Amelia asked. She missed her favourite son. He’d not been able to come around these days. He probably has a lot more to do now than before.

“I’m fine mum. How are you too?” Jace replied. The conversation until Amelia said he should bring Arianna over for dinner. Jace said he would see if they could make it that day.

Soon the lunch was over. Arianna cleaned her mouth with a tissue and Jace poured them glasses of juice.

He offered her one glass and said “Come over here” he said, and walked towards the desk. He pulled a seat out for her and he sat opposite of her.

Arianna stared at him expressionlessly. What does he want to say to her that he couldn’t tell her the previous night? He insisted that they meet for lunch and talked about it.

“I had invited you over because we needed to talk. A few things that need your positive decision and response for it to be. It’s all your decision my love. And I want you to give me an assuring response, please” Jace said and cleared his throat further.

Arianna nodded.

“I want to talk to you about three things, and I’m starting with the most pressing one in my heart. You and I have been together for a while now, and I’m wondering if we can live legally as a couple?

I didn’t mean to rush you, but I don’t feel like waiting anymore either. I don’t know what your opinion is on that, are you willing to marry me soon?” Jace asked, fixing his gaze on her.

Arianna swallowed hard and looked away. He wants to marry her and own her legally. It’s amazing but she felt it’s still so early considering the fact that he just got engaged to her recently.

She glanced at her engagement ring and caressed it. It took a while and Arianna hadn’t responded. Jace was quiet, waiting for her to say something.

“How soon do you want us to be married?” Arianna asked.

“In a fortnight. I would have wanted it earlier but there’s a lot of work in the office and I will be a little free in two weeks. So we would be able to go on a trip for our honeymoon” Jace explained.

“Okay then” Arianna said, raising her chin and glared at him. She saw Jace’s countenance brighten up for excitement. He was so happy that he stood up, came over and pulled her to himself.

“You’ll be my wife soon,” he said and kissed her lips. It’s amazing. She accepted to be married to him soon? He’s so happy to hear her say yes.

“Okay, what are the other two things you want to talk about?” Arianna chimed, caressing his chin.

“Alright, sit down” he said and went back to sit down.

“The second thing is, that it would be good for you to change your last name to your dad’s last name. You can’t keep using Jason as your last name henceforth” Jace advised.

Arianna sighed softly. That’s not a problem at all. If he wants her to change her last name, that’s not a problem at all.

Since she had reconciled and accepted Adrian Delmark as her dad, it really means that she uses her dad’s last name as hers.

“If I change my last name to Delmark, when we get married, will I also be changing it to Hudson?” Arianna asked.

“You might have to do so too. But first, change your last name before we get married. I have a reason for suggesting that to you” Jace answered.

“Okay, I’ll go ahead with it,”Arianna agreed.

“You don’t need to worry about that. I will have my lawyer handle it and that settles it” Jace offered.

Arianna nodded and thanked him. She’s glad that she has someone who is ready to bear her burdens and ask her to relax and enjoy herself.

“The last thing I want to discuss with you will be a little difficult but I want you to agree. I will do whatever you want in return” Jace stuttered.
