One Night With The Billionaire

Jane Delmark was dazed. Susan? She called the name in her mind. She fixed her gaze on Adrian, not knowing if it meant good or bad for him to see her.

“This is the second time I saw her in my dreams since the news of her death” Adrian declared. The first time he saw her, it seemed she was sobbing, unhappy that he was unfair to her.

But this time, she was telling him something that he couldn’t grasp. What was she trying to say? He laid on the bed and covered himself with the quilt.

Jane just laid back on the bed and crossed her arms around Adrian’s waist. They both didn’t say anything, but were lost in their thoughts.

The guilt filled conscience of Jane and the unfilial attitude of Adrian made them both know in their hearts that they did wrong to Susan. She was their friend but they treated her unfairly in the end.

The worst of it was that even at her death, they didn’t show her love nor respect. Years later, they talked about it and blamed themselves for being a pretentious friend to Susan, at least that’s the best way they could describe their attitude towards their friend.

Next morning, Jace woke up and decided to check on Eli. He was not going to the office early. He wants to spend time with Eli and then take her to the hospital to see Arianna.

When he got to his son’s room, he saw that he was still in bed, covered with a quilt. Jace went to him and kissed his chubby cheeks.

“Daddy” Eli called out, stretching his little hands and hugging his father. He hadn’t seen his dad for two days and the servants wouldn’t take him to school either.

“Son,” Jace said, mimicking the way his dad usually called him when he was a little boy. The scene seemed to play itself before him and he smiled. Now, he is the father and like he was then, Eli is the son.

“I missed you daddy,” Eli said, raising himself to sit down. Jace kissed his temple “I missed you the most, my son” he said.

“You know what, I am taking you to see someone today. Get up, take a bath and let’s head to the hospital…”Jace stuttered.

“Okay daddy, I will join you for breakfast”Eli declared and got out of bed. Jace smiled, Eli is an intelligent boy. He doesn’t seem to be three years and a few months old. He talks and behaves like a six year old.

He nodded and blew kisses before stepping out of his room. Each time he glares at Eli, he sees a picture of himself, a miniature of himself in his son.

The same ocean blue eyes and an explicit replica of himself. He didn’t expect that a child could bear so much resemblance with his father that the only way to differentiate between them is their age and body sizes.

While Eli was going to take a bath, Jace went to the basement. The assassin was a shadow of himself as he laid like a dying man on the floor, his wounds were bound up but he seemed to have gone without food for two days.

“Don’t worry, let’s see if James Maslow is capable of saving your wife and daughter from my wrath”Jace declared.

The man snapped his head up and glared at Jace. How did he know, did he do research on the email he showed them? Oh gosh, he shouldn’t have let him know about those emails.

His refusal made him lose his toes and his front teeth. And now his darling wife and daughter would suffer the same fate. And still the billionaire brat knows.

“Surprised that I know? Hahahaha I am Jace Hudson and I get whatever I want. Let that sink into your damn criminal skull” he bellowed.

Turning to the bodyguards, he instructed “Knock him out and threw him on the street ” and walked out

Arianna woke up early. She couldn’t sleep anymore. Richard had gone home and Genesis was sleeping peacefully. She stayed calm and wished her phone was with her.

But hopefully, Jace Hudson would bring it to her like he said. But beyond the phone, she wishes he can be kind enough to bring Eli along. She missed her son, she really long to see him.

She hoped when all of these challenges were over, he would lift the ban of the restraining order. She would be able to be with her son as often as possible.

When it was dawn, Genesis woke up and planted a featherlight kiss on Arianna’s temple. Arianna was looking perfectly well except for her injuries. Her complexion and her beautiful face was radiating in excitement.

“I’ll take a shower and change clothes, then we’ll have breakfast together. How about that, Aria?” Genesis asked, staring at her friend with a megawatt smile.

“Sure, I’ll wait for you” Arianna said as her attention drifted to the door, someone was stepping in. She fixed her gaze on it until she saw a tall slim figure walk in.

She walked in and the first thing caught Arianna’s attention was the engagement ring on her finger. She has this feeling that the woman has a relationship with Jace Hudson.

Tayo Dante walked in and looked around the exquisite apartment they call ward. This woman must have been appreciated by the Hudson’s family for allowing her to stay in the family ward.

Genesis didn’t go to have her bath like she said because of the stranger that walked in. She has this air of pride around her and from the way she passes a glance at the ward, she was definitely not there for good.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Finally, Tayo Dante rested her gaze on Arianna. She glanced at her with much irritation and said “You are actually prettier than you appeared in photos” she forced a smile but quickly let it disappear.

This is the woman whose picture was placed side by side with Jace Hudson’s on social media. She was tagged ‘the billionaire saviour ‘

But seeing her now, it appeared she’s more beautiful and attractive than how she looked in the pictures.

Ignoring her words, Arianna asked “who are you and what do you want here?” She demanded, her eyes diverted towards the door and back to the woman standing before her.

Who is she that she was allowed to get in here? Didn’t Jace Hudson set men at the door to prevent intruders and unwanted guests from coming in?

“Oh, forgive my manners. You probably don’t know who I am” she stuttered and pulled the chair towards her, sitting and crossing her legs. She placed her designer bag on her thighs and her left fingers spread out over the bag.

She raised the finger that contained the engagement ring and ensured she flashed it before Arianna. She stared at the woman on the bed and hoped she would guess already, who she is.

Genesis walked over and wanted to tell the rude brat to stand up, but Arianna waved a hand at her, and she paused.

“I am Tayo Dante, the eldest daughter of the electric magnet Festus and Selina Dante. And I am Jace Hudson’s fiance”Tayo announced and then smirked before continuing:
