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

    It is now certain that Senator Adrian Delmark will be the next prime minister of Hilton City. The various headlines were congratulating him in advance for his success. Arianna had never felt so proud in her life like she was that day. Her uncle stepped down for her dad. It's all because he loves her and wants to see her happy. Her father thanked her and said she's the pivot behind his success. Though he might have still emerged as the winner even if Abby Santiago went ahead to compete with him. But then, Adrian Delmark said his daughter was the reason he came out victoriously without sweating it out. He hugged his family and took photos with them. Genesis was also a part of the family that Adrian Delmark acknowledged. It was indeed a time of jubilation. Jace joined in the mini party, Chase also came over to be with his friend Richard and it was lively. Tessa seemed lost. Besides Richard, no one else really noticed her. She's an outcast.

    Genesis just stared at the woman who just spoke and kept staring at her from his rear view mirror as she walked away. As much as the sight of Tessa annoys her, she must confess that the tone with which she spoke was of someone who felt defeated. She almost sobbed. Her voice was shaking and her eyes were moist. Was she right when she said he took her mistakenly? She sighed and rested her head on the seat. She remembered the recording, he moaned her name. She was furious then why he would be making love to Tessa and then moaned her name. Richard really looked remorseful. He wants to make up with her. He wants them to continue from where they stopped. But then, can she trust him again? They were all having dinner when Arianna's phone chirped. There was a text from Genesis. She read it and stood up, "excuse me, I need to see Genesis" Richard's attention was drawn to her at the mention of the name Genesis. Is she still within the premises? "She hadn't

    Arianna turned and glared at Chase. Was he joking? This dude cannot do without drilling his dick inside a woman in a day. How did he do it, several weeks without a woman? "Can you talk to her for me? I just can't stop thinking about her" Chase added and pulled the towel off his neck and wiped the sweat off his face. "I'm glad you are acting like a man in love. I personally look forward to seeing you experiencing true love" Jace chipped in. "I will see Rosalinda soon. But that would be after Eli's fifth birthday. It's coming up this weekend" Arianna announced. She glanced towards Jace and his face shone with excitement. It's obvious that he was happy. His son would be five years old. "After the birthday, you and I will be off to Switzerland. I'm taking you and Eli on vacation" Jace promised. "I feel Jealous, Jace," Chase stuttered and they all laughed. At breakfast, Pricillia Black waited for her daughter to be through with her breakfast. She needs to

    Jace's eyes immediately went dark. This cannot be. It shouldn't be what he is thinking. Arianna dare not abort his child. No, he doesn't want to think of the worst. Because, he cannot say exactly what his reaction would be if it ends up being what he thought. He must know what really happened that day. "Are you sure?" Jace demanded, his complexion going red. Was his suspicion becoming a reality? "Yes,100% certain" the doctor replied before adding "to be clinically proven, we can carry out some examination on her if you so wish" Jace was pleased. He needs a clinical ascertion. That's the only way he can be sure that his claim is real. Otherwise, Arianna might tag it a speculation. "Fine, I'll come over with her to be examined. But she mustn't know why she's being examined…" Jace instructed. After he hung up, Jace's eyes almost went teary. If Arianna did abort his child because of the so-called career, he would never forgive her for it. *********

    Since Arianna was the CEO's fiancee, she can see the most senior physician in any department she visits. Hence, she went to the office of the senior genealogy. The doctor stood up and shook hands with Arianna. He said he was taking out a routine check on her. A woman should carry out such check up as often as possible in order to detect the presence of an early form of cervical cancer. Arianna shrugged. She doesn't understand why Jace would persuade her into coming over for a routine check up. She'd not done it before and yet, she'd always been fine. Whatever, she was told to lay on a couch and examined. She had an ultrasound done and next samples of her blood and urine were collected. The doctor kept making records and asking her a few questions. After some time, he said she could leave. When Arianna returned, she met Richard sitting next to Genesis. "I told you to stay with my girlfriend and you left her alone?" Richard asked, stretching the word "girlfriend".

    Arianna was lost. Had to do with something else? Was Jace suspecting her or something? She glared at her brother, not knowing how to respond to his words. "Did Jace know about the miscarriage?" Richard asked and Arianna immediately replied "No, not in the slightest" She's certain, he doesn't know a thing. She told him she's in her period, and he believed her. Jace has no reason whatsoever to doubt her words. "Fine. You will go home and watch his actions. Perhaps it has nothing to do with what we're thinking. He might just be having you checked, that's all" Richard shrugged the whole idea off. Arianna nodded and told him goodnight. When she slid behind the steering, she drove towards the house. She missed Jace and Eli. Richard returned into the building and sat next to Genesis. For a while, they didn't say anything to each other. He desires to hold her, to cuddle her and tell her that he loves her and greatly desires to get back with her. He knows

    He pulled her to himself, letting her rest her head on his chest. His chin on her hair, calming himself and he guessed Genesis would be doing the same too. He brought her to sit on his thighs and held her hand "I'm sorry for everything, Genesis. I treated you unfairly and said unpleasant words to you, I'm sorry. I didn't premeditated to cheat on you with Tessa. I swear I didn't. After I left your place that evening, I was sad so I went to the bar. I got drunk and struggled to get home. When Tessa arrived, I only saw you. I was hallucinating and remembered I said "glad you came" and everything else happened. I'm sorry Gene, really sorry. I won't let this shameless act ever repeat itself,I promise" Richard pleaded. Genesis just glared at him without a word. If she can let that intimate act of his and Tessa go, what about the aspect of his words of Humiliation? He said she forced a kiss on him. How can he say such words to her? That's humiliating and em

    Chase was dazed. His heart was beating fast. For a few seconds, he couldn't respond to her question. He just kept his gaze on her, speechless. Arianna's eyes had gone teary. She saw the little girl and imagined how much she wished to have someone she could call her father. She likes Chase and decided to ask him to be her father. Jace just kept his gaze on the girl and next on his brother. What is he thinking at the moment? Will he accept her as his daughter or will he decline her request? Chase Hudson carefully squatted and held the little girl in his arms "What is your name?" He asked. He feels affectionate towards her at the moment. "My name is Bella," she said in a sweet feminine voice. Her tears ran down her cheeks and Chase hugged her immediately. "Yes, I will adopt you. You will become my daughter and I will be your father" Chase declared, lifting her off her feet and carrying her in his arms towards the administrative building. It was there that Chase

    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 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
