One Night With The Billionaire

Arianna nodded and followed behind. Sarah knocked and the thick masculine voice answered. They stepped in. It was the same as the last time she stepped in.

Jace was head bent, writing on a file. A glass of coffee was in front of him and the two women just stood, waiting for him to raise his head.

Arianna admired him. It’s nice waking up to see his cute handsome face every morning. This is the man who held her in his arms until she slept off the previous evening.

He placed his pen down and raised his head to glance at the two women before him. “Yes,” he said, glancing from one to the other. His face was expressionless and it doesn’t seem as if he’s met Arianna before.

“Our new Chief designer sir. She’ll introduce herself” Sara said and bowed slightly. She glanced at Arianna and the latter nodded.

“Good morning sir. I am Arianna Jason, the new designer for the company,”Arianna said and bowed slightly.

“I think you should say a returnee employee. Anyways, welcome Miss Jason. It’s nice to have you back” he declared, without a smile.

“Thank you sir” Arianna replied. Sara led the way and they both went away. He kept his gaze on her until she was out of sight. Then he smiled. Thank goodness, she finally came.

Next they went to see Chase Hudson. “Chase Hudson is the second master of the Hudson’s family. He is the CEOs younger brother” Sara briefed as they approached his office.

Then looking sideways, she whispered “He is cute like his brother but the CEO looks charming and romantic than him. But he is a womaniser. He can fuck anything and everything feminine” she gossiped and knocked.

“The door is open,” Chase announced. Just like CEO Jace, his office was also translucent. When they stepped in, Chase glared at them both.

“Good morning sir. I’m Miss Jason and I am a returnee employee” Arianna introduced herself. Chase nodded and said “You are welcome back. You actually returned at the right time” he said.

She was introduced to the other two designers she met there and they were impressed that she came. They are a male and a female.

But from the look of things, Arianna would be the boss. She has her office separately and works alone.

Mr Ryan was furious when he saw Arianna. It appeared she returned with a higher position. Her looks and dressing was different from what it used to be.

Her skin was glittering and shiny. Her dress was the most expensive type and he suspected that she’d been going around with some rich dude.

He would make sure he tripped her in this company. This conglomerate would reject her eventually.

When Arianna returned to her office, Jace sent a text sorry about the embarrassment a while ago. It was my fault.

Arianna replied and said everything is fine. It wasn’t quite one hour after she settled into her office that she received a call. All the designers in the company are going to have a brief meeting with the president.

Arianna stood up and went. She sat down and soon Saw Chase Hudson walked in. They all stood up until he took his seat.

The CEO walked in and everyone stood up including Chase. His tall slim figure and his cute charming looks attracted Arianna.

“There is a contest coming up and you all would be involved. You have to prepare the best draft design and present it to me, for assessment. Then we’ll make a selection and work on it…” Chase explained in detail.

“You have told us before and we’ve been able to make good designs. I think you don’t need to bother about anything. We have it covered” Lily Ambrose replied sharply.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Jace just sat down and watched. He saw the calmness on Arianna’s face. He saw the agitation in the other woman’s face and squinted.

“The design you have submitted so far doesn’t match what I want to see. It’s shabby and substandard. I want you all, the three of you to make another design individually and submit it for assessment” Chase instructed.

“We both are the ones on this project before. Let it remain the both of us. Miss Jason is just coming and needs to be trained properly on what we do and how we do it” Stanley voiced an opinion.

“Exactly my point. To allow this woman to get involved in our preparation means you doubted our competency, President” Lily Ambrose added.

Arianna said nothing. She smelled conspiracy on what they said. Are they suddenly hating her? They hadn’t even had a proper discussion and yet they want to push her aside?

She’s in the Hudson’s holding because Jace insisted. She’s not after being the best or something. She just wants to get busy, doing what makes her happy.

“We are aspiring to come back with a gold medal. Miss Jason is here and she’s going to be a part of the work. If the three of you don’t satisfy my desires, I will get a fourth. Is that clear?” Chase Hudson snapped at them both.

The two designers exchanged glances and sneered. Ryan’s words are already getting fulfilled. The President was already taking her side. Looks like they won’t have a happy life in the conglomerate with this woman around.

They needed to do something fast. They can’t just stay quiet and let her take over the department from them. After what happened to Ryan, they needed to learn and act fast.

“Miss Jason, I am interested in seeing your draft. I want to know how competent you are at your skill” Chase Hudson instructed.

“Okay sir. What is the theme of the contest?” Arianna asked and Jace squinted.
