One Night With The Billionaire

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”.

“I’m sorry, Jace had instructed me to visit the gynaecological department once I arrived here. But thank goodness you’re still around” Arianna responded and sat next to Genesis.

Gyneacolgy? Richard squinted. Why would Jace instruct Arianna to visit that department? It sends a cold chills down his spine when the idea of what might be the reason struck his heart.

But he said nothing. Only he and Arianna know about the induced miscarriage. Genesis didn’t know and shouldn’t know about it.

He nodded and said I’ll be back. “I’ll get you guys something to eat when I’m coming back” he declared and left.

Richard had barely left when Agnes was wheeled out of the ward. Genesis and Arianna stood up quickly and went after Agnes as she was transferred into a recovering unit.

Gene’s eyes welled up with tears. Her Mom is in danger. She’s unconscious at the moment. Will she be alright? Will she be able to walk again?

They were not allowed to get into the ward. The doctors said until Agnes regain consciousness, she should be left alone.

In the Hudson’s holding, at the CEO’s office, Jace was on the phone. He was pleased when the doctor told him that Arianna came.

“What did you tell her you were examining her for?” Jace asked. His girl is one smart woman. She’s an intelligent woman.

“I told her I was carrying out a routine check on her which would help in the early detection of cervical cancer” The doctor responded.

“And she believed you at once?” Jace asked, wearing a faint grin. Will Arianna readily believe such a lame excuse?

“I think she did,” the doctor responded, smiling broadly at the other end. Such a clever doctor he is.

“Did you dare let her go nude before you?” Jace suddenly asked. Examining her for cervical cancer might involve putting off her panties. Did he really see what he shouldn’t?

“I won’t dare CEO Jace Hudson” the doctor responded. He felt the boss’ tone changed when he asked him the question. He doesn’t want to cross him.

Without another word, Jace hung up. He can’t wait for the results of the diagnosis to be out. He wants to know the reason for such terrible bleeding that Arianna had.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

But silently in his heart, he prayed that what he suspects shouldn’t come true. It shouldn’t be that Arianna did the worst by…no, he wouldn’t think so horrible of his fiance.

***********

Few hours later, Arianna announced that she was leaving. She would check back the next day after Eli’s fifth birthday. He would be celebrating his birthday in a grand state with less privileged children.

Richard promised to be around. But Genesis said she cannot promise that. But she would send her birthday present to Eli, as expected of his godmother.

Richard walked her out and as soon as they were out of sight where Genesis could eavesdrop on their conversation, he pulled Arianna aside.

“What did you go to the gynaecological department for?” He asked, glaring at her with inquisitive eyes. Genealogy ward is not a place someone visits easily like the general out patient department.

“I already told you that Jace wants me to have a routine check up. And the doctor said it will help to detect early presence of cervical cancer…” Arianna explained.

Richard kept gazing at Arianna as she talked. How can Jace just decide one day that Arianna goes for a check up for the purpose of detecting cervical cancer?

Was he expecting her to have cancer? There is more to it. What he wants is way more than a mere routine check up. Jace is investigating something else.

“Did the doctor use a speculum on you?” Richard asked, trying his hardest to read Arianna’s facial expression.

“No. He only did an ultrasound and took samples of my blood and urine. He asked me a few questions and…” Arianna was still explaining when Richardvmade a fist with his hand and hit it against the wall.

“Damn it!” He bellowed.

Arianna was taken aback by her brother’s outburst. Is anything the matter with what the doctor did to her?

“Richard, is there a problem…” Arianna asked, glaring at him intently.

“Jace is investigating something else. Your routine check up has got nothing to do with screening for cervical cancer. It has to do with something else” Richard blurted.
