On a spiral staircase stood Jace Hudson in a robe. He looked boyish in his morning appearance. His night robe was below the knees, giving a full glare of his white milkish muscular feet. He wore slippers and his hair was rough. His hairy chest was slightly exposed and he just stood midway through the stairs, staring at them. His eyes fixed on Arianna expressionlessly and didn't respond to Chase. He looked younger in his early morning appearance but then, he still possessed a unique handsomeness with it. No matter how he looked or appeared, he has a kind of cuteness with it. He didn't say anything but simply turned around and went upstairs. Arianna kept his eyes on him as she saw him disappear through a corner. She sighed and glanced at Chase. After telling him no the previous day, he suddenly saw her in his Mansion early the next morning. It appeared like a surprise to him. "You'll stay in the guestroom, I'll have the servants prepare the room for you" Chase declared. No one knew she w
She got into her car and called him. Twice he didn't answer his phone and the third time,he did. "Hello Chase, we need to talk," Rosalinda said. Chase said he would reach her when he's free. Rosalinda said alright, she would be looking forward to receiving his call. When Chase hung up, he shook his head. He was tired of being with a woman like her. She's too demanding and wants to make the relationship seem serious. He is not interested in any serious relationship with any woman. He only wants to enjoy the ride while it lasts. Why should he be thinking of starting something serious with anyone and she in particular. Any woman who he fucks and doesn't beg him to let her go or even sob, he would not be pleased. But Rosalinda would drain him of all the strength in him and wear him out. He would not be contacting her or trying to see her. She could just forget about him. He doesn't care about her. They're over after their last adventure. But Rosalinda was all
"Hello CEO Jace," Richard said, sinking into the bed in the guest room. He hadn't checked on Arianna that evening. Probably because he got busy with Genesis and his parents. Genesis went into his room and saw the King size bed. She saw his room, decorated with a modern bedroom ceiling and fully air-conditioned. On the wall was Richard and a lady's picture. She immediately felt jealous. This definitely must be Tessa, his ex girlfriend. He saw a bag of clothes from one of the best boutiques in Z-City laid at the edge of the bed. She sat on the sofa, and waited. She has to wait for him to return first. Soon Richard returned and saw her seated. "Jace wants to know the schedule for Arianna's medical checkup" he briefed. "Arianna might not be cooperating with him. She might not even be talking to him despite being in his Mansion" Genesis was sobered. "From what I saw as a Man, Jace Hudson already is in love with her. He wants to make things work out together betwee
"... promise me that you won't leave me. I'm afraid of another heart break. Don't ever hurt me" She said in a solemn voice. Richard caressed her arm and said "I won't. I don't have the intention of leaving you whatsoever. If everything goes well, we'll get married and raise kids. I do not intend to hurt or break your heart" Genesis raised her head and glared at him. He looked cute. She saw a faint sign of Arianna's face in his and looked away. She smiled but Wondered within her, why is Richard and Senator Delmark having some resemblance with Arianna? Well, it might just be a coincidence. Richard took his Pinky and linked it with Gene's. If Tessa hadn't been a flirt and even slept with his colleague in his lounge, he wouldn't have left her. But she wasn't even remorseful about it. That's the height of her betrayal. Cheated and feel it's a norm. She's not a woman a man can leave behind and go on a trip and have a peaceful sleep. "Tonight is supposed to be my wedding night. Since I can't
Emily stood to rescue her daughter but was knocked down with a pistol. Her already swollen bandaged nose was not enough as she tumbled over and quickly. "Please take me instead. I'm still very active " she pleaded. Ned Jason felt like puking blood. Emily is going to give herself to be fucked by this rascal? Does she think he would spare Elisa and take her instead? How dare she disrespected him before these rascals and these products of a mistaken conception? Has she been cheating in their marriage that willingly she gave herself up to be fucked? Once this is over, they are getting divorced. He would leave her for real and find happiness elsewhere or better still bring Arianna back to himself and love her as his own daughter. After all, he raised her. Larry Keyamo paused and glared at Emily. She's not bad either. It seemed that he would have his fill that evening. His supposed wedding night would be celebrated by sliding his merciless dick into a young fresh pussy and
"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 fi
Arianna was dazed. He called her what, his love? Everyone turned to glare at Eli's parents and Jace suddenly realised what he's done, he turned and glanced at Arianna, but she quickly turned her face away. "I will not go into this kind of contest again until I also have a son and my girlfriend is there to applaud me. I am the one who has been cheated here. And yes, Eli you won. You are the winner and I promise to buy you the latest model of computer game. Since your parents are here to cheer and celebrate with you, I will now leave, my parents are not here to applaud me" Chase teased and Arianna laughed. "Chase, don't be jealous. And yes, Jace and I are happy for Eli. I think you should also think of helping Eli get a cousin soon" Arianna teased. Jace came out of the pool. His hair dripped and droplets of water stuck to his clean body. He got a towel and wrapped it around his waist, to keep eyes away from a certain part of his body. He got a glass of wine an
Arianna went into her room and laid on the bed. She turned from one side to the other on her bed. Jace's face was just in her memory, she sent a text "Aren't you engaged to Tayo Dante?"Jace has opened the wine and poured himself a glass. He gulped it down and was going to pour another glass when he heard a text message notification.The message read itself to him and he paused. He took the phone and read it himself. Arianna sent him a message "No, I'm not" he texted her back.Soon another text message came in "but she said she's engaged to you" he read it and replied "She lied. I don't have anything with her or any woman. Just believe whatever I tell you""But you didn't believe me back then when I told you I am not that kind of a woman that you took me for. Now you want me to believe you?" Arianna texted him back.When Jace read her text, he sighed softly. She's right. Perhaps if he had believed her at first, things wouldn't have gotten so complicated between them.He texted her back
When the couple alighted, Chase held Rosalinda's hand, intertwining his fingers ders with hers. They drew closer, and a few securities walked over to their boss. When Chase walked over he turned and glared at the securities in hostility "the next time you opened that gate to some unwanted guests, your job in this house is ended!" He thundered. "We are not unwanted guests Mr Hudson. We are law enforcement agencies with a search warrant…" One of the police officers was saying when Chase snapped at him. "If you have a search warrant, do you also have a gate pass?" He asked, his usual arrogant personality taking over the calmness he portrayed at the orphanage. For a few seconds, none could say a word until the man next to Amanda Smith introduced himself "I am Barr. Clifford,Miss Amanda Smith's lawyer" he said, dissipating the awkwardness in the air. "We have a search warrant from the head office to search your mansion for Miss Bella Smith, a girl you adopted fr
How dare he say she needs the advice the most when he was the one who hurt her and rejected the baby? How can he refer to himself as Bella's father after ordering her to have an abortion back then. If she had gone ahead, she would have flushed Bella away. Now, he brought his face before her and said he is Bella's father? She's not afraid of him anymore. What she wants is her daughter and nothing else. "Amanda, I know that you are hurt. I also know that I made you hurt. But please, I'm begging you let's talk about our daughter please" Chase pleaded. "Yes, Miss Amanda. Just give him a chance and talk to him. This mother is pleading with you as a mother, listen to Chase" Rosalinda coaxed. "I don't have anything to talk to him about. You wanted me to have an abortion back then. You paid for it and told me not to come before you again. And I didn't, I never came to find you ever again. And today you call yourself my daughter's father? How is that possible?
The both of them stared at each other in shock. Chase remembered the dream. Everything played fresh in his memory and he was afraid of the rest of the dream becoming a reality. Amanda Smith glared at him. She was thinking about him without knowing he was standing next to her. What is going on here? She remembered the past. How she was involved with Chase and became pregnant. How he urged and persuaded her for an abortion. He transferred a large sum of money into her account and told her not to come before him again or return someday with some damn baby to blackmail him. He is a Hudson. A billionaire and has power. But she's a nobody. She had to hide away and carried her baby in her belly and gave birth to her without his knowledge. She doesn't have the ability or the name to fight him. Now, after a few years she met with him again. But she hopes he's not the man who adopted her daughter? From the words of the matron, she hopes her daughter hasn't found h
Chase kept his gaze on her confused facial expression. He chuckled softly and said "No. She's my daughter by adoption. And now, the orphanage wants to see me along with her" Rosalinda shook her head in disapproval. She'd always thought she's his daughter for real, that is, by blood connection. And she didn't bother asking him about the girl's Mom. And the resemblance, how come about it then? She takes after Chase 50% in appearance. Her eyes looked a lot like Eli and his dad. "But Bella looks like you and your family…" Rosalinda interjected. This is unbelievable. If Chase hadn't told her himself, she wouldn't have believed it if someone else told her. "It's a coincidence. We're not related by blood" Chase replied, smiling. Somehow the girl looks like the Hudson's. That's one other reason he insisted he would adopt her. She would fit perfectly into the family. "Are you sure none of your ex…"Rosalinda trailed off. It's enough. If Chase said she's his daughter by
The matron nodded and smiled. The only kid in the orphanage that goes by the name Bella was the one adopted a few months ago. "Can we get the information about your daughter and the legal documentation you signed? Amanda smiled and brought out all the necessary documents and placed them before the matron. After glancing over it and comparing it with the copies in the orphanage. She realised that it's her daughter indeed that has been given off in adoption. "We waited for you for many years. Other parents returned to get their kids and many were adopted except Bella…"the matron trailed off. They couldn't reach her. She changed her address and her contacts were forever switched off. Since there was no information about her, they couldn't inform her that her daughter had been adopted. "I'm sorry about that ma'am. Life was unfair to me so I decided to go away for a few years. But I'm back now. I have a job and I've returned to fetch my daughter" Amanda Smith
Jace couldn't curtail the excitement surging in him. Arianna is pregnant again, it only means he's eventually going to be a father again. "Thank you" Jace chimed. He smiled broadly. Richard smiled too. He can't wait for the day when he will also receive such good news as an expectant father. "Watch her diet Jace, if you can. Especially the intake of alcohol is not good for the baby" Richard advised. "Yeah, sure" Jace nodded. He glanced at the direction where the ladies went and felt like going after her and hugging her affectionately. She's carrying his child, Eli will have his request granted in a couple of months. They had hardly finished the party when Jace had Arianna come upstairs. There's a kind of excitement in him that she hasn't seen before. He almost was going to spoon-feed her. This deep expression of love, she doesn't know what she'd done to deserve it. Anyways she accompanied him. "You'll have to do a test. I bought five different brands
Her heartbeat almost skipped. She stood gazing at the two people she least expected to come and see her. Is she dreaming or hallucinating? She blinked her eyes and opened them again, but they remained at the same spot, smiling broadly at her. She turned and glanced at Chase,the latter shrugged. Chase went to see them, is that why she didn't wake up to find him next to her? She swallowed hard and wanted to say something but her words choked in her throat. Chase has impressed her over and over with his ability to reconcile people together. "Congratulations baby" Pricillia Black was the first to make an utterance. She opened her arms and walked towards Rosalinda. The latter mumbled "mummy" and her eyes went cloudy with tears. She got into her mom's arms and hugged her. Her tears gave way and for some seconds, they both couldn't say anything but remained in each other's arms. "Mummy,I missed you," Rosalinda confessed. She sniffled and swallowed hard. Her mom's t
"... I'm sorry . I know I have been stupid in the past. I trespassed. I bruised your ego and I said demeaning words to you, but I sincerely apologise to you and I seek nothing but your forgiveness. Even if you don't want to forgive me, for your daughter's sake, forgive me. Rosalinda is broken and unhappy. For the rest of yesterday, she's sobbing secretly. Do you want your daughter to be unhappy? No mother or brother ever wishes so for their daughter and sister. I humbly request you to forgive me for her sake. Rosalinda loves me a lot. She hadn't stop loving me for once. I fell in love with her after she miscarried my baby. I swear that I regretted my actions. I tried to apologise, but you both didn't give me a chance. I am a different person now. I love your daughter more than anything else in this world. Please give us your blessings, dear mother inlaw…" Chase pleaded. Pricillia Black was speechless. She doesn't know if she's to be angry or just walk away. Bu
She had been unexceptionally quiet all the way from the registry. After her encounter with her family, her excitement went down and she had only been forcing herself to appear happy. But Chase wouldn't forfeit the pleasure of his wedding night simply because the bride wasn't looking cheerful. He has to take his conjugal right. Rosalinda was not giving him the expected cooperation. She wasn't in the slightest mood or interested to consummate her wedding. If Chase can just spare her that night. Before the next day, she would have been able to put her emotions together and willingly give herself to him. And she cannot tell Chase about it. And the latter refused to interpret the attitude she was giving him. Chase just doesn't want to understand at all. "What's happening Rosa? Don't you want me to make love to you?" Chase asked, feeling annoyed already. He had to undress her and despite that, she was stiffening her body. He suspected that she doesn't want to cons
