One Night With The Billionaire

On a spiral staircase stood Jace Hudson in a robe. He looked boyish in his morning appearance. His night robe was below the knees, giving a full glare of his white milkish muscular feet.

He wore slippers and his hair was rough. His hairy chest was slightly exposed and he just stood midway through the stairs, staring at them.

His eyes fixed on Arianna expressionlessly and didn’t respond to Chase. He looked younger in his early morning appearance but then, he still possessed a unique handsomeness with it.

No matter how he looked or appeared, he has a kind of cuteness with it. He didn’t say anything but simply turned around and went upstairs. Arianna kept his eyes on him as she saw him disappear through a corner.

She sighed and glanced at Chase. After telling him no the previous day, he suddenly saw her in his Mansion early the next morning. It appeared like a surprise to him.

“You’ll stay in the guestroom, I’ll have the servants prepare the room for you” Chase declared. No one knew she would be coming that morning, hence the room might probably not have been taken care of.

Two servants came over and bowed “Good morning second master” they greeted. Chase nodded and next told them to get ready, the guest room. They said okay and soon left.

“Will Jace welcome me to his Mansion?” Arianna asked. She can’t tell if he approves of her coming anymore. After he left the hospital the precious day in anger and didn’t know she would eventually be persuaded to come over.

“Jace loves you. Besides his late fiance, no woman has been here besides mom. If he doesn’t love you, he already would have walked you out “Chase declared.

He glanced at Arianna and saw that she looked aloof. “Arianna, I meant it when I said Jace has fallen for you. Just give him a chance, you will love his beautiful nature. He’s one kind sweet guy, “he added.

Arianna went to take a bath but had no dress to change into. She wore the same dress again. She would have Genesis bring her some of her dresses. She is not convenient, putting the previous already dirty dress after a bath.

She saw it was almost quarter past seven, she decided to step out, if she could find Eli. She did and saw her son, dressed cutely in a school uniform. Her heart beats for joy.

“Mommy”Eli chimed and Arianna carefully walked over. She was glad that Jace was not there. She kissed Eli and said he looked handsome in his uniform.

The cook and the servants that were in the house with them were dazed. They exchanged glances. This is the mother of the young master?

They’ve been wondering when the eldest master made a baby. For those of them who knew Miss Clara, she was never pregnant for the master. That only implies that the young master’s mother was someone they’d not known.

But seeing Arianna now, they smiled. Finally they were going to have a madam in the house. It’s enough that the eldest master and his son should be living alone.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Daddy said I would start school again” Eli chimed. He’s so happy to be able to go to school again. His daddy had stopped him for a few days and now, he said he could return to school.

“That’s amazing honey,” Arianna said. She decided to sit and have breakfast. She had just been served when she saw the tall figure walk over to the dining room.

He was dressed in a fitted designer suit and a leather customised pair of shoes. His hair was combed into his usual style and he walked over and sat down.

“Good morning, dad,” Eli chimed. Stretching his little palm across the table to his dad. He was smiling profusely when he saw that both of his parents were sitting to have breakfast together.

“Good morning my son,” Jace said, taking Eli’s hand and giving it a soft squeeze. He smiled at him and turned his gaze to the cook. “I asked you to make me a sobering soup, right?”

“Yes, eldest master” the middle aged woman nodded, and offered a plate of soup. Jace took a few spoons and pushed the dishes aside.

“Good morning,” Arianna said, avoiding his gaze. She had been quiet, trying hard not to have an exchange of words with Jace.

“Good morning” Jace replied and started having his breakfast. Unlike Arianna, Jace was staring at Arianna who happened to be sitting in front of him. He Wondered who convinced her to come over to his Mansion.

He meant it when he said he wasn’t going to be concerned about her anymore nor will he let her be with his son. But now that she’s there, he would be responsible for her.

Midway through the meal, Chase walked in. He went to Eli and hugged him from the back “Good morning my super nephew. I love you very much” he said, kissing his neck.

“Good morning uncle. When are you taking me out to the swimming competition?” Eli asked. His uncle had told him that they would be having a swimming competition in his daddy’s pool.

“This weekend will be fine. Your mom is going to be the referee and your dad will be the judge” Chase declared.

“Don’t even presume that you will win if I am going to be the judge,” Jace commented and drank from his juice. He glanced at Arianna again and saw her glaring at Eli.

“You can’t swim, Eli,” Arianna cautioned. How can he talk about a swimming competition when he barely knows how to dive into the river.

“I can swim mommy. My daddy taught me how to swim”Eli replied. Arianna sighed softly and pouted her lips. She glanced at Jace for the first time since he came to the dinning and their eyes met.

His ocean blue eyes glared at her expressionlessly. She thought Eli was still that poor kid raised by his mom alone and living in that dirty street and apartment.

Jace stood up and said “Eli let’s go” and lifted Eli up. He took a tissue, cleaned his mouth and kissed his chin. “You’ll be a good boy and don’t talk or go near strangers, okay?”

Genesis went home. She’s been alternating between home and the hospital. She would visit her mom and return to be with Arianna in the hospital. But now that her friend has been discharged, she will return home.

Richard went to drop her off. As he arrived at her home, he stepped out and went with her to see her mom. Jennifer Armstrong was excited to finally get to meet Richard.

Her daughter had told her that the man that always comes around to drop her off is her boyfriend. She scolded her daughter for not bringing him in to say hello and for her to get to meet him.

Richard bowed slightly in courtesy. He was offered a seat and Mrs Jennifer went to bring him a glass of coffee. He appreciated her and took a sip from it.

He soon stood up and said he would come over to check on her another day. He was passing by and decided to stop by. Jennifer was pleased. She said she looks forward to seeing him again.

When Richard got outside, he paused and held Genesis’ hand and kissed it. “I will take you home tonight for dinner. Mom and dad want to meet you” Richard coaxed.

Genesis nodded. She smiled and said okay. She would be waiting for him to pick her up. Richard said alright, by 7 pm he would be there to pick her.

Arianna was home alone. She was surprised when one of the servants brought two big bags of dresses. Another servant brought in toiletries and body wash.

They went ahead and arranged the dresses in her wardrobe and the toiletries were taken to her bathroom. Her makeup was also arranged. Everything was so quick and yet unique.

“Was it Jace who ordered these?” Arianna asked one of the servants. She knew it would be him, no one else would do such things for her besides him in his Mansion.

“Eldest master did. His assistant brought them and told us to do the arrangements” the servant replied and Arianna nodded.

Rosalinda walked out of the hospital. She was beaming with a smile. Thank goodness it came out positive. Chase needs to know about the good news.
