One Night With The Billionaire

Richard stopped by Genesis place that evening. Her mother came to help hold the door for him. She smiled broadly and said Genesis was in her room.

Richard nodded. He was glad it’s not Genesis who came to the door. From her mother’s excited smiles, it only means she hadn’t told her anything.

He thanked her and went to Genesis’ room. Not expecting anyone besides her mother, she didn’t bolt the door. She was sitting in the middle of her bed and doing whatever only she knows on her computer.

At the door, she raised her head and saw Richard. There was a rush of adrenaline that ran through her spine. She glared at the fellow who just walked in and for some seconds, she didn’t know how to vent her anger.

Richard walked in and shut the door behind him. He glared at Genesis and looked away, his words stuck in his throat as if he didn’t know how to utter them anymore.

He saw her eyes, filled with disdain for him. She was still furious with him. A few days have passed but she hasn’t been able to get calm.

“What do you want here?” Genesis snapped at him. She placed her laptop aside and stepped out of the bed.

“You. I came here to see you, my love” Richard stuttered. He swallowed hard and looked at the woman before him.

“You dare to come here, Richard” Genesis bellowed. He is already separated from her and he still came there despite knowing she wouldn’t tolerate his presence.

“I’m sorry Genesis. I’m sorry. Forgive me. I swear I didn’t know I was with Tessa…”Richard was saying when Genesis interrupted him.

“Shut the fuck Richard! Are you mad? Do you think you are talking to a baby? Do I look like an idiot to you?

Despite the scene that I witnessed and the recordings I received, are you still lying? What kind of a man are you?” Genesis yelled.

Gosh! Is this the kind of man she’d been dating? Why couldn’t she know him as a liar. Right before her, he still lied and denied it?This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

“I am not lying to you, Gene. I am telling you the truth. Whatever you saw that morning was because..” Richard was trying to explain but Genesis isn’t interested in listening.

“What I saw that day was Photoshop. You weren’t naked, yeah, I didn’t see anything. Tessa was not with you. Yeah, I was blowing the whole thing out of proportion.

But I am not interested in having a relationship with you anymore. I don’t go around with cheats and I am not going to tolerate it now. It’s over between us, Richard, it’s over” Genesis bellowed.

“Why don’t you listen to me? We can talk this over and get back to the way we used to be. I am deeply sorrow for hurting you, believe me, I am sorry” Richard pleaded.

“Did you listen to me when I tried explaining things to you about the fall that Tessa had at Arianna’s engagement party? Did you spare me a glance?

Weren’t you hovering over Tessa like a true lover? Didn’t you tell me that you were still in love with her? You said I forced myself…” Genesis’ words choked.

She started sobbing. She sank into the bed and sobbed helplessly. Richard felt remorseful and walked over to console her when Genesis yelled “Get out! Don’t ever come back here” she declared.

She stood up and pushed him out of her room and bolted the door. She then started sobbing afresh. Who said he should come over to her place?

When she said it’s over, she meant it. She didn’t say it out of an irrational hasty decision. She meant it when she said it.

“I’m sorry Genesis. I will go but I will keep hoping for a reunion with you. I love only you now, I swear I only love you” Richard pleaded and went away.

Genesis sobbed more. He loved them both in the past. Now he’s deceiving her again. She cannot fall prey to him anymore nor to any man.

Chase was worried. He couldn’t sleep. He decided to sleep in the room that would have been the kids room. If he still couldn’t sleep, he would drive out and go to a hotel.

When he stepped in, he stepped out again. No, he isn’t going to sleep there. What if the baby’s ghost was living there? He or she might be troubling him because he lives with him.

He went to his room, covered himself with a quilt and turned off the bedside lamp. But his eyes were opened as usual.

Does it mean, Richard’s prescription cannot help me get a good sleep? What is happening to him? Is he normal at all?

Sleeping pills fail to work even if he takes an overdose. Now, a doctor had prescribed medication for him and he had taken them, why couldn’t he sleep?

He hopes he won’t go mad one day? This is how mental imbalances begin. If he couldn’t sleep like this for a long time, he would lose his sanity.

Oh God, what has he done to himself? Could it be because he had hurt Rosalinda? Was this happening as Karma?

That must be it. He is really a terrible guy. How come he didn’t go to check on her again. She carried his child for a few months, went through that difficult stage of miscarriage.

He should have followed up on her. He should have checked on her and ensured she’s alright.

He would go to see her the next day. He would try to talk to her and then apologise to her. He needs her to pardon him in order for him to have peaceful days henceforth.

In Jace’s Mansion, Arianna already had a bath and went to dry her hair when Jace walked in. He had been with Eli, reading him bedtime stories.

Only after Eli had fallen asleep did he return to the bedroom. He knew Arianna was holding a grudge against him. He went closer to her and kissed her nape.

Arianna shook her body, trying to push him off. Jace smiled and then held her tightly against his body and said “I will grant your request tonight”
