One Night With The Billionaire

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 adoption, then so be it.

“None of my ex girlfriends ever insisted on keeping their pregnancies except you. Besides, I don’t usually drill my dick into every woman unprotected” Chase responded.

Rosalinda sighed and pouted her lips.

Chase drove to the orphanage with Bella. Rosalinda insisted that she would go with him and he allowed her. As they went, his mind was filled with different thoughts.

He is afraid he might lose Bella. The little girl had become an integral part of him and she came into his life at the time he went into depression as a result of Rosalinda’s miscarriage.

Her presence took away the pain of losing an unborn child. He can’t do without her and she also played a role in bringing Rosalinda back into his life.

He hopes her real parents haven’t come to find her? The matron of the orphanage told him back then that her parents didn’t really put her up for adoption.

They might return someday to get her. He had pleaded with them to let him have her. When her parents come, they would find a way to go about it.

And now, he had been invited. Will they take his daughter away from him? He loves her now and Rosalinda cares a great deal about her. She’s their daughter and they want it to remain so.

Bella giggled playfully and Rosalinda laughed out loud. These two are really fond of each other. Did Rosalinda’s baby return to her in the appearance of Bella?

Chase prayed a silent prayer in his heart. He doesn’t remember when last he prayed but at that moment he needed help from God. He really needs it. He doesn’t want to lose custody of his daughter.

When he drove into the premises of the orphanage, Bella’s eyes shone in disappointment. Has her daddy brought her back to her former home?

She doesn’t want to stay there. She doesn’t want to be that lonely girl in the orphanage again. She’s got friends in school and at home.

Eli, uncle Jace and Aunt Arianna, her new mother Linda and her daddy. Every one of them loves her. Why has her daddy brought her back to the place she once lived?

As Chase’s chauffeur drove to the parking lot, Bella’s tears dropped and she held Rosalinda’s hand “I don’t want to live here anymore. Don’t send me away from you, I’m your daughter Bella…” she started sobbing .

Chase turned and glanced at the back seat where Rosalinda and Bella were seated. He saw Bella sobbing and he locked eyes with his wife, they both glared at each other speechless.

Chase felt an emotional connection between himself and Bella at that moment. She doesn’t want to leave him just as he doesn’t want her to leave as well. Oh gosh!

“Your daddy and I aren’t going to leave you. We will see what we can do to bring you back home with us” Rosalinda coaxed, holding her in a hug.

“Then take me away from here this minute. I want to leave. I hate coming here daddy. Please take me away” Bella requested amidst tears.

Chase swallowed hard. How can he calm her down and tell her that he came because he was called. He hates to see her sob, it causes an adrenaline rush in him.

“Your daddy will bring you home, okay? He was invited and he has to come. It’s probably some documentation or something” Rosalinda persuaded.

“Exactly baby. Linda is right. We will get back home together. You are our darling daughter, we aren’t going to leave you behind when we leave” Chase coaxed further.

“Then promise me” Bella demanded, raising her pinky and intertwining it with Rosalinda’s. She raised herself and drew closer to Chase, raising her pinky to him.

Having been assured by their promise, she cleaned her tears and tried to be cheerful. Now, she’s certain her parents aren’t going to leave her in the orphanage.

They alighted. Chase’s heart was still beating fast. He still hasn’t told Rosalinda about the details of his dream but he hopes the event for which he was invited will not prompt him to do so in haste.

Rosalinda held Bella, giving her that reassurance that a mother gives to a child who is afraid of failing an examination.

The chauffeur waited patiently as his boss and family stepped into the building. It didn’t take Chase any hustle to locate the matron’s office, after all, he’d been there before.

As they stepped in, a woman was sitting with her back to the door. Chase glanced at her back view briefly and somehow found her familiar but cannot remember where he knew her from.

“Welcome Mr Hudson. I’m glad you are able to make it without a prior notification…” the matron was saying when Amanda Smith squinted, Mr Hudson?

That name reminds her of the scoundrel who kicked Bella into her belly and requested an abortion when he knew she was pregnant.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She decided to turn and glance at the fellow called Hudson. When she did, Chase also at the same time glanced at her direction. He expects the woman to leave when the matron starts talking.

He’s there to see and probably talk with Bella’s parents and courtesy demands that she excuse them. But when he locked eyes with the woman, his heart beat almost skipped, what?

Amanda Smith’s complexion turned pale.

“Chase?” Amanda exclaimed.

“Amanda Smith?” Chase called in a whisper-like tone.
