One Night With The Billionaire

Flashes of camera were all over them. Some journalists were asking questions about Jace and Arianna’s relationship but he didn’t even spare them a glance, he treated them as air.

As they approached the large garden where the party was being held, Richard and Genesis came out and welcomed them. The stewards bow slightly when Jace passes by them.

“Good to have you here, CEO Jace Hudson” Richard paid courtesy. Jace nodded but didn’t show any slight interest in shaking hands with him.

“You’re welcome, Miss Jason,” Richard said and kissed Arianna’s chin. Genesis hugged her friend but was surprised that Jace didn’t leave Arianna’s hand.

Jace stood at a strategic place, many people started walking over and paying him courtesy. He would talk in one or two sentences and wouldn’t say anything else.

He sighted Chase Hudson, his brother, holding the hands of a woman. He sighed softly and looked away. Women are not a scarce commodity to Chase.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“CEO Jace, can we leave the ladies for a few minutes?” Richard requested politely. Jace shrugged and glanced at his intertwined hand with Arianna and towards her face.

“Stay close together” he declared and gave a slight nod to Genesis. He let go of her hand and walked with his glass of wine with Richard.

“My dad has publicly declared his intention to run for the position of prime minister,” Richard declared. He was walking Jace towards his parents.

His dad was talking to someone in whispers and smiling. Jace Hudson was saying hello to the dignitaries present and many were coming towards him to say shake hands with him.

“I’m finally going to meet Senator Adrian. I’ve looked forward to this day” Arianna chimed. She held Genesis hand and the two friends giggled.

“You will like him when you meet him. He is such a great person to be with. He’s sincere and respects everyone equally” Genesis assured her.

The two women were dressed gorgeously. The sight of them scares ordinary men away.

“Have your parents been able to find a bride for the eldest master of the Keyamo family?” Genesis whispered.

Arianna sighed softly and looked around before saying “I don’t know Genesis. They should sort themselves out. It’s their problem” she declared and gently tapped her friend as if she’s a distance away.

“The truth is that I am not Ned Jason’s biological daughter. I don’t know who my father is. But I promise myself that I will find him. Who he is and where he lives. Dead or still alive. I will know who my real father is” Arianna stuttered.

Genesis looked towards where Senator Adrian stood, talking to some dignitaries and smiling broadly. She had been restless since the moment she saw the semblance between Arianna and the Senator.

She doesn’t know her father, Ned Jason is not her real dad despite being surnamed Jason. Can there be any connection between Arianna and the Senator? Can they really be father and daughter?

No, she’s thinking too much. It’s a mere coincidence. Sometimes people look alike and yet, they are not related. This should be it. Senator Adrian and his wife Jane love each other too much.

Richard can only be the only child the Senator has. He can’t possibly have had Arianna illegitimately. No, the man is transparent and honest. He can’t. Even if. He does, he would have acknowledged her already.

“Hey, girlfriend. Lost in the romantic memory you had with Richard?” Arianna teased. She expected Genesis to say something but she became usually quiet. What the heck?

“Maybe, thinking just how we fucked each other last night. Gosh, girl it was sweet” Genesis chimed. The two women giggled quietly.

Just then a woman walked towards them and smiled, trying to initiate a friendly conversation. Genesis frowned upon seeing her. There is something about the woman she doesn’t like.

“Hello, I’m Tessa Wilson, Richard Delmark’s friend, ” she said, stretching her hand towards Arianna. The latter took it out of politeness and quickly withdrew her hand.

When Tessa stretched her hand towards Genesis, the latter glared at the hand for a few seconds before taking it, grabbing it firmly “I am Genesis, Richard Delmark’s girlfriend” she said.

The smile on Tessa’s face disappeared. She glared at Genesis hostile and quickly forced a smile. She withdrew her hand from Gene’s grip and looked from her head to her toes.

Arianna sensed something wasn’t right. She doesn’t like the woman. Tessa glanced at Arianna and then smiled. The smile was so obvious that anyone can tell it’s a fake smile.

“Arianna Jason” Arianna said, her face devoid of a smile. She glared at the woman, making her read her expression that she’s not welcome as a friend.

Good enough, Tessa nodded silently and moved on. Arianna and Genesis exchange glances. The latter sighed and said “I guess, Richard’s ex”

“Oh! I see” Arianna mumbled. She wanted to keep talking but saw that Tessa was walking towards Richard and Jace. She wants to see what she’s up to.

Tessa got behind Richard and turned to glance at Genesis with eyes that showed she still matters to him. She placed her hand on his waist and caressed his back.

Richard, who stood with his back to Tessa, didn’t pay attention to it. He felt it’s Genesis but when the hand went up to his back, caressing it, he felt the hand was familiar but not Genesis’.

He turned abruptly and came face to face with Tessa. Jace Hudson saw what Tessa was doing when she walked over but was waiting for Richard to react to it.

He immediately disliked the woman. He looked at where his girlfriend and Genesis stood and saw the fury on Genesis’ countenance.
