One Night With The Billionaire

Arianna paused in her steps and turned back to glare at Jace helplessly. She knows that he’s got a feud with Chase but in times like this, they need each other.

“I am not going to a place that you are not aware of. We are talking about Chase here, your only brother. Maybe I shouldn’t have told you I was going out.

I should have just disappeared from the office and returned later. You are trying to stop me from going over to see him. Why are you doing this?” Arianna queried, staring at Jace.

The latter’s eyes went cold, staring at her. He didn’t say anything. He needs to talk some senses into Arianna when they get back home.

She is giving him too many reasons why he wouldn’t be letting her leave home henceforth. Maybe it’s better she does other things and not works in the same company with him.

“Don’t let my relationship with you affect official matters. If you really want to go and see him, why don’t you use your lunch time to do so?” Jace demanded.

Arianna couldn’t answer his question and just left his office. Her phone was ringing and she checked who the caller ID was, it was Chase.

She glanced behind her, and walked briskly towards the elevator before answering the phone “Arianna please come. Rosalinda’s mother sent me away from the ward. I just want you to talk to her a little”

Arianna said she’s on her way and quickly went to the car, zooming off. Jace saw her from the CCTV footage, zooming off in her car and he gnashed his teeth.

Arianna defied him and went to see Chase contrary to his order? What does she mean by that? Is she trying to see just what he was capable of doing?

When Arianna arrived at the hospital, she saw Chase’s confused looks. He appeared lost and sad. He definitely had sobbed a great deal.

“Chase” Arianna called and held him in a hug. The latter seemed greatly relieved when he saw her. At least someone by his side at the moment.

“Have you told Mom and dad?” Arianna asked and Chase said no. He said he couldn’t call anyone at the moment. He was so confused and the only person he could reach out to was her.

Arianna nodded and went to see Rosalinda. She was still sleeping and Pricillia Black smiled through moist eyes.

Arianna walked over to her and hugged her shoulders. Pricillia was seated and she sniffled as Arianna held her. She was going to be a grandmother but it’s over now.

“It’s alright ma’am. Your daughter will be alright and some day, you’ll see your grandchild. Don’t let Rosalinda wake up to find you like this.

At this time in your life, she’d derive her greatest strength from you…” Arianna coaxed and Pricillia Black held Arianna’s hands and appreciated her.

She said she’s glad she found a man good at heart like herself. She wished that she and Jace never experience the loss of their child all their lives.

Arianna nodded and thanked her before stepping out. Pricillia Black watched Arianna’s back view and smiled, such a beautiful woman with a beautiful heart.

It wasn’t long, Amelia Hudson came around. Arianna had tucked Chase Hudson, urging him to tell his parents about it.

Amelia went in when Rosalinda was awake. The older woman stared at Rosalinda and smiled at her “I’m sorry that you have to lose your baby.

You have no idea how prepared I am to welcome my grandchild. He would have been my second grandchild after Eli. We all lost him my dear, we all, not only you and Chase..” Amelia sadly declared.

Pricillia Black nodded. She said she would have become a grandmother. But alas, she has to wait another time. The miscarriage came as bad news for her.

Rosalinda sniffled. Everything she’s being through, just to keep the baby, yet she lost him. It’s all Chase’s fault, he provoked her and she couldn’t take it.

The insults, the Humiliation and shame, all went to waste. Her frequent hospital visitation from the onset of the pregnancy, nothing to show for it. Everything is gone.

Now, her chapter with Chase was over. The only thing that connected them was gone. She’s herself again and he was free from the shackles and trap that the pregnancy placed on him.

She had learnt her lesson. She will never let any man have her heart and body again. That’s it. It’s going to be her resolution henceforth.

Chase had been loitering around the corridor. But seeing his mother and Arianna were inside, he decided to go in and see Rosalinda as well.

As soon as he stepped in, Rosalinda turned to see who came in and saw Chase. It seemed to her at that moment that he was the killer of her baby.

Her eyes went cold and teary as she said “Happy now, you finally killed our baby.. bravo Chase Hudson…”
