One Night With The Billionaire

When Chase saw her, his excitement seemed to be watered down. He felt himself become little. He hadn’t really seen her after the miscarriage.

But seeing her now, he admired her again. She looked like the beauty she was when he just met her. He couldn’t imagine that she would be back to her old self within the shortest time.

“Rosalinda” Chase called and walked closer to her. He didn’t mind the fact that she was embraced by another man who obviously seemed to have come over to pick her.

Rosalinda paused without turning sideways to glance at the direction where the voice came from. She recognised the voice.

She knows who the caller was. What the heck does he want there? Why did he call her? What else did they have in common?

He said horrible words to her and because of the shock she experienced with him, she miscarried her baby. She does want to have anything to do with him, ever again.

She thinks she still loves him. But such mean guys like Chase Hudson don’t deserve to be loved. He doesn’t know how to love neither can he recognise it even if it stares at him in the eye.

She ignored him and let her friend walk her towards the car. But again, Chase called her “Rosalinda” . He walked closer to her and said “Can I have a few minutes of your time?”

Chase’s tone was respectful and pleading. He walked and stood by the two adults. A bouquet of flowers in his hands.

Rosalinda glanced at her friend and he nodded. He glanced at the dude holding flowers and recognised him as the playboy from the Hudson’s family.

He is the promiscuous lover boy that Rosalinda once dated. The sight of him aroused a fury within him. He desperately wants revenge on him for all he’d done to Rosalinda.

He took a few steps away from Rosalinda and waited from the sidelines. Rosalinda sighed softly and turned to glance at Chase.

She eyed him and swallowed hard, putting her self restraint together to hold back from the outburst. She felt like jumping on him and scratching his face.

She lost her baby because of him. He doesn’t want him but eventually makes her lose him. What else does he want from her?

Chase felt a trace of excitement crossed his mind. He didn’t expect that she would respond to him. He thought she would snub him and walk away with her friend.

He drew closer to stand before her. He stretched out the flower to her and said “How have you been, Rosalinda?”

Rosalinda neither reply nor attempted to collect the flower from him. She ignored him sneering at the flower he stretched to her.

Seeing Rosalinda was not answering nor interested in accepting the flower, he sighed softly and said “I haven’t seen you in a while. I came to check on you.

You haven’t been answering your phone nor responding to any of my texts. I missed you and I came to say, I am sorry for every pain I have caused you. I’m sorry about the past. Please forgive me” Chase apologised.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“What are you apologising for, for calling me several unpleasant names or for making me lose my child?” Rosalinda demanded.

“Both. I am sorry for both and for the emotional trauma I made you go through. I regretted all my actions. Please forgive me” Chase said.

Rosalinda couldn’t imagine that the fellow that talked to him was actually Chase. Where is his arrogance, his pride and lofty looks?

She nodded and walked out on him. Her friend saw her coming and met her midway. He held her in a french hug and held the door for her to get in.

He walked over and slipped behind the wheel, zooming past Chase Hudson. The latter remained standing and saw Rosalinda’s cold stare and attitude.

He knew right there that she hadn’t forgiven him. Her wounded heart hadn’t healed enough to forgive him. He glanced around in embarrassment.

Thank goodness no one was watching. Those passing by didn’t pay attention to him or to who he is. He took the flower back and threw it at the back seat.

Richard pulled his fingers off and turned to glare at Tessa sharply “Are you crazy?” He snapped at her.

“Don’t be too harsh on me, Richie. I’m still your Tessa” Tessa retorted back, standing by his side and folding her arms across her breast.

Richard gnashed his teeth. Always appearing at odd times. Always showing up to ruin every single chance he has to be with Genesis. Can’t she just hide her face away from him, just for once?

He turned to glance at the direction that Genesis went and his eyes locked with hers. She was staring at them with an expressionless face.

Richard knew his efforts to woo Genesis back had only gotten tougher. If he needed just sixty steps more to get her, it has only returned back to a hundred steps again.

“Stay away from me, Tessa. You’ve caused enough harm to me and Genesis. Don’t let me embarrass you” Richard thundered.

Senator Adrian Delmark and Abby Santiago hugged each other. The latter had publicly stepped down for his friend of over three decades.

It was a great moment of a happy reunion. And he said that Senator Adrian Delmark was more worthy of the office of the Prime minister, than himself.

Besides being his friend of many years, he is the father of his only niece. He called her Arianna Delmark.

Abby Santiago reunited with Jane Delmark, putting the grudge of his sister’s death and her one sided love behind him. He seemed to let go seeing Arianna.

He also acknowledged Richard as his niece’s only brother. The two old friends sparked up their friendship again and Abby Santiago declared that he was leaving.

Senator Adrian Delmark became the only candidate contesting for the position of the Prime minister.

“Arianna” Senator Adrian Delmark called in a quiet emotional tone. “Thank you,” he said.
