One Night With The Billionaire

Chase felt embarrassed and humiliated. He knew she wasn’t saying the truth but since she said it so openly, it means he needs to back off from pursuing her.

He nodded, and turned to glance briefly at Alexander Hamilton before glaring at Rosalinda “Alright. I will not come anywhere around you anymore”

“You dare not. Henceforth use your head and not your heart whenever you remember the name Rosalinda. Stay off” Alexander Hamilton thundered.

“You don’t have to remind me that” Chase responded and glanced at Rosalinda again before turning around and left.

Rosalinda remained glued to the spot where she stood and watched his retreating back view. She chased him off. She’d always wanted to be loved by him.

Now, he eventually fell in love with her and came back to pursue her. But what she did was to chased him away. She threw away the love she had always yearned for. Chase has now offered it to her on the platter of gold and she refused it.

Her eyes welled up with tears and within the time it took to blink an eye, her tears ran down her cheeks. She sniffled and didn’t even care to glance at the man before her.

It was Alexander Hamilton’s turn to be embarrassed. Even after Chase had gone, she couldn’t stop staring at the direction he took.

A lot of people were staring at them. Some were already murmuring under their breath. She’s with a guy but her heart, mind and soul had gone along with the one who walked out.

“Rosalinda” Alexander called, taping her gently to make her realise that she’s acting weird by staring in that direction but he least expected her to flare up and accused him.

“What is wrong with you, Alexander? Why did you tell him to stay off, why?” She bellowed, her eyes glaring at him in hostility.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Alexander Hamilton glanced, to see if there were people staring at them. And as expected, a few people have their gaze on them. He turned quickly and stared at Rosalinda.

“I didn’t say anything inappropriate Rosalinda. Your words ruin everything, your words make your stand known. This has got nothing to do with me or what I said” Alexander Hamilton declared.

For heaven’s sake, she said a little too much to that dude a few minutes ago. Why wouldn’t she think and ruminate over her own words instead of finding fault with what he said.

“Your words were too insultive and demeaning Alexander” Rosalinda bellowed, her facial expression was that of someone that is furious.

She didn’t wait another minute but picked up her handbag and walked out briskly. Alexander Hamilton wouldn’t stay there another minute.

He paid their bill and walked out. When he stepped out, Rosalinda was nowhere to be found. He sighed softly, furious at this woman’s attitude. How dare she humiliated him publicly?

Chase drove back to the office. He was sad but he held on. Since she said it, it means he should stay away from her henceforth.

Those words might not be the truth, but he cannot help it. He would take it just the way she said it and back off. He wouldn’t want to ruin her new found relationship.

When the day’s work was over, he was eager to return home to his daughter. Bella was all he has now, and he loves her very much now. He would simply concentrate on raising her as a single father and perhaps, love will take pity on him and he would fall in love with another woman.

But when he arrived home, Bella was not home. She’s gotten addicted to her cousin Eli. The duo immediately bonded when they met.

They are always together, and Eli’s nanny looks after them both. Chase went over to his brother’s mansion and found them both in the garden, Bella’s laughter attracted him to them.

“Daddy” Bella chimed, running towards her father. Chase bent over and scooped her up, throwing her high in the sky.

“Uncle Chase, are you back?” Eli chimed, running towards him. Quickly, Chase placed Bella on her feet and raised his nephew “Of course I’m back, how else would you have seen me, if I’m not back” he replied as he scooped his nephew, throwing higher into the sky more than he did to Eli.

“I’m staying over with Eli daddy, his mommy is back” Bella chimed, excited that Eli’s mother is a sweet woman, she loves her too.

“Oh Arianna is here?” Chase asked in surprise. This woman has got guts. What if Jace returns and finds her in the mansion? Well, they both love each other and can handle each other’s temper.

“Yes, my mommy is home. She’s tired. She said she’s done a lot of work” Eli explained. He had asked his mom what work she did and she said, little boys shouldn’t know such kind of work.

If she had told him now, he would have just told his uncle. Maybe next time, his uncle would have helped her do the work and save her from such stress.

“Hmmm, she must have worked hard,” Chase responded. To have worked in his father’s office and on his bed, she must indeed have worked hard.

“Next time uncle, you will help my mommy do her work so that she will not be too worn out. I don’t want her to be stressed” Eli solicited.

Chase’s temple went blank.

He nodded and smiled. There are some kinds of work one cannot help someone to do such as his dad drilling his mom. But the young guy won’t understand.

The kids ran off to play. Chase was all smiles. The bonding between these two kids was awesome. It seemed as if they’ve known each other for a long time.

His daughter has found a brother forever. Eli and Bella remained best cousins and friends forever. He hopes to see her grow into a beautiful woman one day.

But more so, giving her a complete home. Giving her a mother that will cuddle her to sleep and make experience the love of a family.

Chase was still staring at the happy children when Arianna descended the stairs. She saw him gazing at the kids, a beautiful smile appeared on her face.

“They are so cute and amazing” Arianna stated, walking over to where Chase stood, her gaze on the two cousins as well.

Chase turned and glanced at her. He smiled quietly and said “they are absolutely good together. They both have gotten a sibling”

“Yeah, you’re right,” Arianna agreed. They stare at them a little longer before Chase asks “You left early. I went to see Jace and he told me he hired you to work in his…” Chase trailed off.

He cannot bring himself to utter the last word. Arianna was his elder brother’s woman. He must show her some respect as he did to his brother.

“Lounge” Arianna spilled it out. What’s the big deal about it? They are adults and Chase knew his brother fucked her. So why holding back.

Chase glanced at her and a quick grin appeared on his face. She looked worn out indeed. Eli was right. She hasn’t really recovered from Jace’s torture.

“You look worn out. Don’t you think you need to rest more, or possibly visit the hospital for medication” Chase suggested.

If she’s looking this way, he can imagine how she looked when she just arrived. It’s been a few hours and yet, she is still like this.

“I already consulted my doctor and I have the servant get me the medication. I’m better now. I will return to myself before tomorrow morning” Arianna replied.

Chase nodded. “Jace is something else entirely. He has this calm and quiet appearance, but he can be mean when he chooses to” he stuttered.

“It wasn’t his fault. I am to be blamed. He had done nothing wrong, but I, I was mean” Arianna defended.
