One Night With The Billionaire

“Congratulations father ” Genesis chimed. Senator Adrian Delmark smiled and nodded “Thank you my dear”

As Richard drove towards Jace Hudson’s Mansion, he stopped by a pharmaceutical company. He went in and got some contraceptives. He took a bottle of water and the pill and gave them to Genesis.

She gulped it down and saw a deep hickey on her neck. He smiled. He started the ignition and went on.

Arianna woke up and didn’t find Eli nor Jace in the house. She asked one of the servants and she said the eldest and young master are probably in the gym.

Arianna nodded and went back to her room after her breakfast. An hour later, she heard voices and a servant knocked at the door. She went to get the door and saw Richard and Genesis walking in.

A nurse accompanied them and Jace followed closely by Eli. Jace and Eli were dressed as joggers. They were coming from the gym indeed.

She smiled and Richard hugged her, kissing her temple. “So happy to see that you are fine, now Arianna”

“Thank you Richard,” Arianna said. She hugged Genesis and Jace opened his arms, Arianna hugged him briefly and went to sit down.

“I’ll dress your wound, Miss,” the nurse said. Arianna nodded and Richard said they all could go out. When the nurse is done, Arianna would join them.

Half an hour later, Arianna walked out, dressed in a loose gown and her hair in a ponytail. She already looked beautiful. Chase was around as well.

Jace had gone to take a bath and change clothes. Eli went to have a bath as well. Chase planted a featherlight kiss on Arianna’s temple before asking her to sit.

“You’re a beautiful woman, Arianna,” Chase complimented. Arianna smiled and said “thanks” Richard said her beautiful gene reflected in her son.

“I think the good genes of Arianna and CEO Jace were well blended in Eli. That boy would grow up looking more stunning than his dad” Genesis added.

“That’s why I said she should say Yes to Jace. They would make more babies. My brother loves her but Arianna doesn’t care a thing about him” Chase persuaded.

“That’s true Arianna. Jace loves you now. I might not be sure as your friend but as a man, I see another man in love. And you are the woman he is in love with. Just give him a chance, please ” Richard coaxed.

“Will you just stop talking about Jace being in love with me? I don’t…” she was saying when Genesis said “He loves you, Arianna. Just give him a chance”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Arianna smiled and said nothing else. Servants soon came over and served them drinks. Jace joined them and invited them over for breakfast.

They all said they’ve eaten and he said “Have you had breakfast Aria?” And the latter nodded. He said okay, he would take a bite and then walked them to the pool. Someone would be having a swimming competition with Eli.

Jace sighted Genesis neck and the hickey on it and smiled. Coincidentally, Arianna’s eyes sighted it and she looked at Jace. Their eyes met and lingered on each other. Eventually Arianna looked away.

“Gene, this is love Mark…” Arianna teased. She wanted everyone to change the subject of discussion. She already knew while in the hospital that Richard and Genesis had started seeing each other.

“I have decided to be quiet. I think I am not the only one who had a great time overnight relaxing with a lover” Chase teased.

“That’s my signature. And yes, you’re not the only man. I’m only worried about Jace and Arianna…” Richard trailed off.

Everyone laughed. Jace’s eyes were fixed on Arianna. He was already having a crush on her but she doesn’t like him. She hasn’t forgiven him.

“Jace can go without it for years. If I hadn’t seen Eli, I would have concluded that my brother has a problem and he couldn’t express it” Chase mocked.

“Thank goodness, he has Arianna now. They both can start their gymnastics from where they stopped after Eli” Richard chimed.

Arianna and Genesis were the ones who didn’t say anything. Gene was shy but Arianna was speechless. They both exchanged glances and Arianna said “Congratulations bestie. Richard is the right guy for you” she said.

“Thank you, Aria. And I hope you and Jace would patch things up and begin afresh” Gene said. Arianna smiled.

The swimming competition went well. Arianna, Richard and Genesis were spectators. Jace was the referee in place of Arianna and would still act as the judge while Chase and Eli were the contestants.

“If you dare try to win over Eli, I will cancel the contest” Jace warned. He sat down at the edge of the swimming pool in a swimming trunk.

Jace ordered his bodyguard to get him a new swimming trunk for Richard and Genesis. Except for Arianna, the rest of them would swim.

“We haven’t even begun. And you are already telling me not to win” Chase complained.

“Yes. I’m officially telling you as the referee that you mustn’t win the competition. Eli must win, ” Jace declared.

Eli went to Arianna and she kissed him. He went into the pool with his little swimming trunk. Jace Hudson said Chase would begin his swimming each time Eli is halfway through the length of the pool.

He blew the whistle and Eli was swimming like a little fish. Chase swam through twice and caught up with Eli. He overtook Eli twice and declared that he’s the winner.

Arianna’s heart was beating fast. She was shivering, when did Eli become a frog, swimming fast in the pool. She’d always been scared to let him go for training. She claimed he would start when he’s five.

“Daddy, Uncle cheated. I am the winner” Eli complained, reaching the shore a few minutes after Chase. He wants to be the winner and his uncle claimed he won.

“Liar. I didn’t cheat. I only swim despite your father making me a little later than you in starting” Chase defended.

“Daddy, Uncle is bigger than me. He has cheated. He has cheated ahhh ahhh..”Eli sobbed. His tears cannot be seen, the drops of water on his face made it difficult to differentiate between the tears and the water.

“You are a little rascal, Eli. Everyone saw us and can testify that I won. You’re taking advantage of the fact that the referee is your father. When did you become this naughty and the audacity you’ve got to sob” Chase reprimanded.

“Eli is right, you cheated. But to be fair enough. I will compete with you in Eli’s place” Jace declared.

“What kind of a referee are you? You are taking sides and now, you would leave your honourable responsibility to help a contestant?” Chase complained.

Arianna was laughing hysterically. She’s the reason why Jace supported and took part in the competition. He has work to do, but chooses to make Arianna happy.

“There are no such rules that I can’t help a contestant. Eli just has to win” Jace declared and dived into the water. His body was extremely fair. His biceps were alluring. His belly muscles were six packs and his legs were muscular.

A perfect physique. A cute face and an attractive body. He is tall but slim with a muscular body. As he dived into the pool, it took a while and when he raised his head, he was at the other end.

Chase was midway. Eli was now at the edge, sitting with his little body and applauding his father.“My daddy is the winner, daddy is the winner, my daddy is the winner”

“You have also cheated. Why did you swim without raising your head” Chase also complained.

Richard couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Now, it’s Chase’s turn to complain. He also needs someone to come to his aid.

“Fine. Let’s start again”Jace volunteered. The two brothers started and before everyone present, Chase lost again.

“Wow, Jace, you won in the place of Eli” Arianna chimed. She was excited and applauded.

“Yeah, my love, our son is the winner,” Jace said flippantly.
