One Night With The Billionaire

Jane Delmark glanced at her son and saw him fix his gaze on Genesis. She sighed softly and whispered “You’re still in love with her, right?”

Richard closed his eyes, trying to hold back his tears. He still has feelings for her. If he wasn’t sure before, he was damn sure after he went to get the CCTV footage of the event that happened that night, at Arianna’s engagement party.

“Yeah,” Richard responded and then added “more than before”. Genesis was actually the victim. Tessa played the victim to earn his sympathy and made the real victim the bad guy.

Genesis was hurt back then, but she endured it. She would have forgiven him but the worst happened when she caught them together in his bed.

He even abandoned her and concentrated on Tessa. He wouldn’t even listen to her own version of the story. He believed Tessa and everything was ruined.

Now Genesis was not interested in talking about it with him. She wouldn’t want to listen to him and she’s right to take such a decision.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t rest, until I get my love back” Jane Delmark urged her son just as Genesis sighted her and walked over, giving the older woman a sweet hug.

“Mrs Jane, Mom” Genesis chimed. She smiled as if nothing happened. She was excited. She took a wrist band and slipped it through Jane Delmark’s hand.

“My beautiful daughter,” Jane said and kissed her temple. “I missed you very much,” she added and glanced at her wrist. A band with her husband’s name.

“I missed you more, Mom,” Genesis responded. She turned and glared at Richard. The latter looked away, avoiding her gaze.

“Hello Richard” Genesis chimed. She forced a smile. But the smile was completely different from the one she had when talking with Jane Delmark.

The smile was a fake one. She was trying hard to make it appear as if nothing happened. But she was still feeling hurt over what happened between them.

“My love,” Richard said, wearing a calm expression. His face was relaxed but he wasn’t totally smiling. He stares at his ex, wishing things could get going with them again.

“You bring your wrist, ” Genesis said and held his hand, bringing it closer to herself and tying the wristband on it.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Richard fixed his gaze on her and saw her, enthusiastically putting the band on his wrist. His heart yawned and wished he could hold her close and kiss her lips.

Her unique femininity captures his heart and soul again. He doesn’t know how to begin to plead with her to forgive him or tell her that he knew the truth about that night.

Jane glanced at her son and saw him fix his gaze on Genesis. She doesn’t know if she’s to step in or stay calm and allow Richard to handle the mess he’d created.

She walked away to join Arianna, who was actively talking to her dad. She seemed to be full of life and happy. The three of them stood together and talked in whispers.

“I know everything about that night. Tessa was wrong” Richard blurted just as Genesis was done tying the band on his wrist.

Genesis paused and glanced up to stare at Richard with moist eyes. “Hmmm, I see,” she commented.

She wanted to leave and Richard added “I’m sorry Genesis, for everything. I love you more now, than before…”

Genesis closed her eyes and held back her tears. She nodded and said “I wish you and Tessa a good life. Excuse me” she declared and walked away.

Richard saw her left and his heart sank deep into the lowest part of his soul. His excitement ceased. His smiles and cheerfulness disappeared and he looked moody and sullen.

He just told her that he loves her now more than he’d ever done. And she wished him and Tessa a good life. Why is she acting as if she doesn’t understand him?

He was still contemplating when someone walked over to him and intertwined her fingers with his. Richard immediately knew she was, her body scent cannot be mistaken by him.

Jace was moody. He hadn’t been able to get Arianna pregnant. He’d been working hard and had nothing to show for it. Is he alright at all?

He probably needed to go for a check up that evening. He wants to know if something was wrong with him or not. If he was fine, he needed to get Arianna go for a check up as well.

He still hasn’t found out if Arianna’s cycle the last time was actually a period or something he was afraid to think about. Anyways, once the election is over, he’d take her for a check up.

But he needed to visit his polling unit to cast his vote. Heaven knows, he would be voting Senator Adrian Delmark. He is Arianna’s father, he is also his son’s grandfather and his future father in-law.

Meanwhile, Chase Hudson was hanging around Rosalinda’s workplace. Once she closed the office, she would find him waiting.

He had just returned from a two-week vacation. He couldn’t concentrate on anything else except thinking of Rosalinda. That’s why, he came over to see her as soon as he returned.

He only hopes she accepts him. It’s been a few weeks already. If she would forgive him and just talk to him. He really wants to make up with her.

Chase kept glancing at his wristwatch at every interval. She would soon step out. It’s going to be a surprise to find him waiting.

He bought her a bouquet of rose flowers. He got a box of diamond jewelleries and waited. Full of hope and excitement.

But when Rosalinda stepped out, a Benz drove to the parking lot and a tall figure alighted, went over to give her a hug.
