One Night With The Billionaire

In that depressed mood, Genesis called Richard. Seeing the caller ID, Richard sighed for relief. He answered the phone “Glad that you called” Richard said and sniffled.

Genesis perceived unhappiness in his tone and asked “Are you alright, baby?” This is not the usual vibrant Richard that she used to know. Something is amiss.

“I’m not. There isn’t any way I can be alright tonight. After how irrational I talked to Arianna, I’m far from being alright” Richard replied.

Genesis sighed. “Okay now, tell me what is wrong exactly. What happened?” She inquired. The three of them are best friends. Whatever caused a fuss between them that made Richard talk irrationally to Arianna, she wants to know.

“Something happened at home. Mom invited Arianna and Jace for dinner. But then, we all found out that Arianna is my sister. She’s dad’s daughter. She’s the daughter my father was trying to find.

It brought a feeling of shock, pain and hurt to her and she called my parents names. I wasn’t comfortable that she dragged my Mom into it, and I lashed back at her…”Richard took his time and explained everything that happened.

Genesis was quiet for a few seconds. Richard wondered why she wasn’t saying anything. He asked “Are you going to be quiet and say nothing to all I just explained to you?”

“No, Richard. Was just wondering that all along, my suspicion was right” Genesis stated.

Richard blinked his eyes and said hurriedly “Have you also known before now?” He asked. What is wrong with him? Jace knew and now Genesis?

“No, but I guessed. I suspected it. The first time I went home with you and met your dad, the curiosity was so high and the suspicion was hard on my mind.

I asked you if you have a relative in Z-City and you said no. I saw the semblance between the Senator and Arianna and the slight resemblance with you.

You both share a similarity with your dad. But I couldn’t say anything more. But then, why did you get involved and talked irrationally to Arianna? Isn’t she your friend anymore?” Genesis asked.

Richard was quiet. He remembered that Genesis asked him that question back then. He told her his uncle was abroad and his aunt was late leaving no child behind.

“We are siblings, Genesis” Richard stuttered. It’s now clear that Arianna is his younger sister. The bond they shared is stronger than ever.

“Yes, she’s your sister. That explains why you love and care for her so much. It’s amazing being an elder brother. Isn’t it? Genesis chimed.

“I don’t understand that feeling yet, but I guess I will soon understand it. And beyond being an elder brother, I am an uncle. That seemed more amazing to me right now”Richard stuttered and smiled.

He wondered if he was now smiling. He guessed Gene’s call had done the magic.

“I will coax her to forget your utterances. But you have to apologise to her as well, is that clear?” Genesis asked.

“Sure, thanks, ” Richard replied.

Daisy couldn’t sleep. She watched her husband turn his back to her and slept peacefully. She eyed him and gnashed between gritted teeth.

If he hadn’t gone to be involved with Arianna, she wouldn’t have gone to find her in the office. Now things have gotten complex and complicated because of what he made her do.

How on earth is she going to get such a huge amount of money to clear off her debt? That man CEO Jace Hudson was more cruel and terrible than she’d heard about him.

His words were followed by echoing as it sounded like a time bomb in the ears and heart of those who got a share of his ruthlessness. One person lost her Job, others are going to get half salary and she was going to pay a huge amount to compensate him.

What kind of a man is he? No wonder he has no girlfriend and is not married at his age. Shouldn’t he have settled down with a woman and raised kids?

But no, his arrogance, ruthlessness and lack of interest in women wouldn’t let him achieve what his equals have achieved. She hates him. Besides his wealth and handsomeness, there isn’t anything about him that interests her.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

But how will she get the money? The cruel bastard gave her just two days. Where on earth will she get the money? He has the power to send her to jail and make a case against her.

Oh! Her days. What had she done to Arianna to deserve this? That scheming bitch has caused her this anxiety. She will ruin her and disgrace her in the entire Z-City until she will either leave forever and not return or got depressed and commit suicide.

The battle line has been drawn. Arianna and herself. Tooth for tooth, an eye for an eye.

Next morning, Arianna woke up to find Jace holding her close and her head was directly below his chin. He was still asleep. She tried wiggling out of his grip, but he tightened it the more.

There hadn’t been a day when she woke up before Jace. Besides the day he made love to her, it hasn’t happened again. She remained in the exact position.

The realisation that the man she respected so much is her father. She had always admired and held him in high esteem when he was simply a Senator to her. But now, things have changed.

He is more than a Senator, he is her father. Nothing is going to remain the same in her relationship with Richard and Senator Adrian.

Can she ever forgive Adrian Delmark and Jane Delmark for what they did to her mother? They hurt her, betrayed her and didn’t care about what she felt.

They were selfish and thought only about themselves. Jane Delmark betrayed her friend just like Daisy did to her. Yes, she and her mother are alike.

What Richard said was true. She’s just like her mom, unable to keep their men and lost them to their friends. What happened to her Mom was exactly what happened to her.

She is an illegitimate daughter of the Delmark’s family. No matter what happened, she would always remain an outsider to Jane and Richard. But much more than that, she is not acknowledged as Adrian Delmark’s child.

The same happened when she had Eli. If Jace’s Fiance Clara hadn’t died, he definitely would have ended up with her and her son would also be an illegitimate son.

Why is her life taking the same trend with her mom’s? It seemed to be going in coaches, taking the same path with her mother Susan Santiago’s path.

She started sobbing again. She sniffled, it hurt her that her life had taken this turn.

“You are sobbing this early?” Jace grumpled. His half opened eyes glared at Arianna. He couldn’t see her face but her hair. He kissed it and gently raised her to lay on his torso and raised her chin to glance at him.

“I hate to see you have a different expression than that of excitement ” he declared.
