Richard glanced at her and couldn't answer her question. He is confused at the moment. He had thought Chase Hudson was the man. He had always suspected him to be Eli's father. He didn't know that he wasn't. Jace Hudson is not friendly like his brother Chase. Of course he sees him on TV, newspapers and on social media. But he is highly a private person. There is no history of him being in chains of relationships like his brother. He never knew he was the man that fathered Arianna's son. "I'll ask for a day off while we go in search of Arianna" Richard informed. Genesis couldn't bring herself to stop sobbing quietly. She nods vigorously. For the next two hours, Richard and Genesis were searching for Arianna anywhere possible. First, they went to her house but she's not there, her apartment is under lock. Next they went to the Hudson's cooperation but were told none of the two brothers came to work. Definitely Arianna can't be there, so they didn't bother going in.
Jace Hudson nodded and said she could come in. He felt remorseful about the way he tortured her the last time he was with her. It turns out that she had nothing to do with Chase and he's 90% certain now that she is not a spy. Whatever happened between them was simply a night of pleasure and nothing else, no strings attached. He hadn't been able to apologise to her or call her back to her job. And now, Eli. They have a son together. His paths and Arianna's paths will forever cross because of their son. She has a right to Eli just as he does. The door pushed open and Arianna walked in. She was looking furious and grieved. She stared at the back view of Jace Hudson and snorted. She never would have believed that someone so good looking would have a stinking putrefying heart. His personality and nature was in total contrast to his looks and appearance. She had stopped seeing his physical outlook but his heart and the terribleness of it. When she saw him the previou
That evening, Jace and Chase Hudson arrived at the Hudson's family house. They came over for dinner as invited by their parents. But what they didn't expect was that they would be having guests. Festus Dante and his wife Selina Dante were present with their daughters Tayo and Flora. As soon as Jace stepped into the sitting room and saw the family, he remembered his dad's words about his friend's daughter, one Tayo Dante. "Welcome sons," Henry Hudson said, smiling broadly. His both sons have arrived and it's going to be an evening of fun and dinner. "Hello Dad" Jace said, feeling uncomfortable with the thoughts crossing his mind. His father can't possibly be serious about what he said the other day, right? He doesn't understand why his family and another family should come so close. "Jace dear," Laura Hudson chimed, coming over and hugging her son happily. She did the same for Chase and pulled them in to introduce them to their guests. "Come over," Henry declared
Chase almost laughed out loud. That serves Jace right. He had refused to date any woman hence they had to find one for him. And of all women in Z-City, this kind of a woman is the chosen one by his parents. "Her beauty is on par with Jace's handsomeness" Henry declared and Tayo shyly bowed her head. Chase felt like puking blood. He cannot tolerate the condensed atmosphere when he said "I want to take a walk, excuse me please" "You should, dear," Amelia approved with a forced smile. She wants him to leave so they can ask Jace to have a blind date with Tayo. "I'll keep you company" Jace offered and stood up, his brother was leaving, he had to leave as well. He can't take this nonsense. "Let Tayo accompany you. You both need to get to know each other more" Henry suggested, making eye contact with Jace. "Bro, don't stay too long, your son would be lonely at home" he advised sarcastically. Jace enodded "I need to leave, I want to read him his bedtime stories tonight"
Arianna's eyes were moist and she sniffled. He's done the worst, he's gone the extreme. A temporary restraining order against her? What on Earth had she done to this fellow surnamed Hudson? Why is she experiencing so much pain in this life? First, she didn't get the privilege to be raised by her mother. She only has a vague memory of her before she died. She was barely five when her mom left her. She was with her father before Emily came into their lives. Growing up in Jason's family house was hard. And Ethan came into her life. The last thing about Ethan that she is trying hard not to remember was his betrayal. He cheated her in love and that led to that club. Of all the men who worked as gigolo in that club that day, why does it have to be that arrogant brat that she collided with? Why was she so unfortunate to stumble upon him? Now, that she thought her life was taking shape, that she has put the pieces of her life together and wants to live her life to the f
When he drove into the hospital, the nurses came with a stretcher. Richard had placed Arianna in a recovery position in his car the entire way to the hospital and Genesis couldn't stop herself from sobbing. Arianna was placed on the stretcher. It seemed like she was lifeless. There are no signs of breath in her. Her lips and fingers have a bluish tinge and her skin was cold. She was breathing, at least that is what Genesis could conclude. "She's in a coma already. She doesn't have much time left, take her to the intensive care unit.."Richard was dishing out instructions and the nurses immediately went into action. Richard removed his suit and shoved it into Genesis arms. He went after the stretcher Arianna was on and was saying "Set the dialysis machine and get a respirator handy…" Richard was saying when Arianna was wheeled into the Intensive care unit and the door shut. Genesis stayed out and started sobbing. "Oh Aria, what have you done to yourself?" She was sobb
Richard exchanged glances with Genesis and the latter shook her head in disapproval. Arianna has no family who is interested in being by her side in times like this. "I just told you she's more of a family to me. Do you still have to ask after some other relative?" Richard asked and the nurse apologised. When the nurse stepped out, Richard asked "You know her family, right?" Glancing at Genesis. He really doesn't know much about Arianna except that he was attracted to her and seemed as if her well being is his responsibility. He doesn't know why, but from the moment he sets his eyes on her in X-City, he has this pull towards her that he cannot explain. There's something about her that he's yet to find out. "Yes, I do. But she'd not be in close contact with them for years. Her mom is dead and her father is glued to his wife and daughter that Arianna appears like an intruder to them" Genesis explained. "Invariably, she doesn't have anyone besides herself and her
At that moment, Jace Hudson was stepping his feet into the vast compound of the Hudson's family house. He had told his parents that he was coming over for dinner. He had told his parents over the phone that he was not ready for any arranged marriage or blind date they were trying to shove down his throat. But to make everything clear, he would come over for dinner and express his disapproval of it. They shouldn't give the poor lady and her family a false hope. He was dressed in a plain shirt and pants exactly as his son, Eli. The boy is a spitting image of his father. Jace ensures whatever he orders henceforth, must come in his and Eli's sizes. Eli's hair cut was same as his father. As they stepped out of the car, he lifted him off the floor into his arms. Hecsaw the look of puzzle on the boy's face. "Dad, is this a palace?" Eli asked. Such a big house with plenty of men and women in uniform. There were lights everywhere and the place was glittering like a palace
