One Night With The Billionaire

Jace’s countenance became dark. He glared at Arianna “Why are you talking to me like this? Why are you disrespecting me by being rude?

You and I had a past and I was unfair to you at a time. I apologise and I told you that I am sorry for what I did. But I won’t let you disrespect me. I won’t take it from you, Arianna Jason nor from anyone else” Jace was furious.

“So whatever you want, I will not interfere with your decision. Go back to that shithole and stay there. You’ll come over to the hospital when you need a doctor’s help, I don’t care anymore.

But I won’t let my son come over there to visit you. I will withdraw the restraining order and you will let me know when you want to see him. If it’s okay and convenient for me, I will allow him to meet you.

I won’t let you disrespect me again, I won’t give you that chance. I know you risked your life to save me and I will be ready to answer your call whenever you need me in the future.

I will pay your hospital Bill and sign the necessary documents. But I won’t be coming to check on you again” Jace bellowed and turned around, leaving the ward.

He almost bumped into Richard and Genesis on his way out, his eyes spitting fire and the cold aura emanating from him made them both paused and glared at him.

He didn’t pay much attention to them but simply strode past them and told the bodyguards that they were relieved of their duties.

He went straight to the receptionist. The young woman who sat before the desk saw Jace Hudson and she stood up quickly, bowing before him. “Send the hospital Bills of Miss Jason to my email” he declared and went away.

He got into the car and the chauffeur drove him off. How can Arianna talk to him that way? He’s not going to check on her anymore. If he finds an opportunity to help her, he would.

“What happened between you and Jace Hudson?” Richard asked as soon as he stepped in. He saw Arianna had helped herself to stand up and was walking towards the window.

She didn’t reply but rather cleaned the tears on her face. Genesis went to her and asked “Jace looked infuriated when he walked out of here. What happened, he almost bumped into us and didn’t give a damn”

“He wants to request that I be discharged. And I should come over to his Mansion and stay with him and Eli while getting treatment. I refused and he said I raised my voice at him.

So I raised it well enough for him and asked him to choke me to death if he could. After all it isn’t the first time he would almost strangle me in fury. That’s why he left…”Arianna explained in a shaking voice.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“He’s withdrawn his bodyguards. It only means he’s out of the hospital for real and might not be coming to check on you” Richard declared.

“He already told me that. I want to be out of here” Arianna requested. She glared at Richard. The latter sighed. Arianna cannot be alone by herself, she needs to be around people who care for her.

Jace drove to the police station. He was told by his lawyer to endeavour to come around. He was told the two assassin’s were sentenced to jail but the first one couldn’t make it, he died.

He said he appreciated the efforts of the police department in bringing the culprits to justice. And asked if they know anyone else who might be involved in the act with the apprehended ones.

He was told that none else was mentioned after interrogation. He could be at ease, everything has calmed and his life wasn’t in danger anymore.

When he left the police station, he decided to answer his phone. His phone has been ringing but didn’t answer it while he was in there.

“Why are you furious with Arianna? You shouldn’t have put her words to mind” Richard cautioned.

“I don’t want to talk about Arianna anymore. If you don’t have anything else to say, I’ll hang up” Jace declared and hung up.

Adrian Delmark couldn’t eat beyond a few bites. He hadn’t been alright the entire day. He couldn’t concentrate on anything and he seemed to be having a migraine.

Jane Delmark couldn’t help but feel anxious. Her husband has become unusually quiet from the moment he stepped out of bed. He probably was worried about the dream he had.

As they had their dinner, Jane asked if he needed them to make an inquiry about Susan. There might be something her soul wants him to know, that’s why she visited him in his dream.

“I’m not doing such. I just knew I treated her unfairly. That’s all. I would have gone to visit her in her tomb but I practically don’t know where she was laid to rest” Adrian Delmark stuttered.

Jane nodded. When Richard comes, she definitely would assign him to investigate her dad’s best friend. That would be easy for him without Adrian knowing of it.

Richard told Arianna that she should utilise the opportunity that Jace offered her and stay in his Mansion. She would be safe there and she would get to be with her son as often as she wanted it.

Genesis also coaxed her and told her that if she would be able to avoid the arranged marriage the Jason’s family were forcing down her throat and she would be able to get to be with her son, until she gets better.

Arianna reluctantly agreed.

The next morning, Jace was awakened by the noise of Chase’s car honk. He knew he drank a little too much the previous evening, because Arianna’s attitude upset him. Her rudeness made him feel bitter towards her.

But then, he groggily dragged himself to the glass window and looked out. It was indeed Chase’s car and he saw that the security guards had let him in.

He glanced at the bedside clock, it’s some minutes before 6 am. He squinted, it’s unlike Chase to come to his apartment at such an early hour of the day.

Or could it be that he went to spend the night with one of his numerous women? Whatever, he could do whatever he likes for all he cares. But he would have driven to his Mansion rather than his.

Anyways, he went to relieve himself. Then from the CCTV in his room, he saw that he went to park his car at his garage. He decided to go downstairs and see what’s up with him.

Chase held the door for Arianna and she stepped out. Jace’s Mansion impressed her. She knew he was wealthy and expected something classical about his house but then, it still impressed her how beautiful his Mansion was.

The morning dew was dropping on her as she walked behind Chase towards the house. The environment was bright and well lighted, flowers were grown around and Chase paused, crossing his arms around her waist.

As they approached the door, it opened on its own Accord. Chase gently helped Arianna into the house and then went in after her.

Arianna stepped in and saw the sitting room. The room was magnificent with an advanced architectural design. The floor seemed to be made of crystal as it reflects their image.

The cushion was made of the best quality of leather material. The ceiling is made of tile design. The chandelier is golden and emits lights. The ceiling tiles design has its lights.

Arianna knew the sitting room decor worth a fortune. It’s beautiful and glamorous. The sight of it will want to propel you to sit and ask for a glass of coffee.

“Good morning bro” Chase said and that brought Arianna back to her senses. She turned and glanced at Chase and next followed the direction of his sight…
