One Night With The Billionaire

Chapter 5: Meeting the CEO



Arianna arrived at her address and told Genesis to pull up. The latter was happy and parked. She got out of the car and followed Arianna towards her apartment.

“You will get to meet my son, Genesis,” Arianna chimed. She was happy that she found her friend again. She, Genesis and Daisy were best friends until she caught Daisy with her fiance a day before her wedding with Ethan.

She decided not to contact Genesis again. She lost faith in friendship. But now, she felt that love and friendship bond was back when she sighted Genesis.

“Son, you have a son, Arianna?” Genesis asked. Arianna really has a son with her lover? She doesn’t want to believe Ethan’s words, but having a son is making her doubtful.

“Yes. He’s three years plus” Arianna answered, not paying attention to Genesis’ surprised question. She is just happy to find her friend again.

She pushed the door open and asked Genesis to sit. She would fetch her son and introduce him to her. Genesis said okay and sat down.

The house looked poorly furnished. The wall decor was outdated and the furniture was cheap and not in Vogue anymore. Arianna must have been through a lot to survive after she cheated on Ethan and escaped.

When Arianna returned, she came in with a cute adorable boy. The little boy’s eyes were ocean blue and his skin was white, he looked so sweet and Genesis opened her arms and pulled him into a hug.

She couldn’t say a word for a few minutes. Arianna is a very beautiful woman, she’s the most beautiful girl in their college days but this boy is way more cute than her.

Her eyes welled up in tears. Such an adorable little guy. She wished she had a son like him, it doesn’t matter to her what people say or think about her, this boy has made her fear disappear.

She sniffled and Eli didn’t know why this Aunt sniffled. She felt her tears drop on his shoulders and carefully free himself from her grip and looked at her in the face.

“Why are you crying, Aunt? Mummy said brave people don’t cry” he said placing his little chubby hands on Genesis’ chin.

“No, baby. Aunt is not crying out of weakness, love. Aunt is so happy to see you. You’re so cute” Genesis declared, forcing a smile.

Genesis was right, the boy looked way too cute to be in a shabby apartment like this one. But despite it, his cuteness was still there intact and attractive.

“Don’t make me go emotional, Genesis” Arianna interrupted them. She doesn’t know why people cannot pass without passing a second and most times a third glance at her son.

Some would even pull over and take his hand, pecking it. They claimed he’s so cute and adorable. But she didn’t see anything so special about Eli’s facial looks and that of the other kids she’s met.

Hence, sometimes she doesn’t want to take him out. Seeing Genesis’ long hug, her moist and tear filled eyes, she wondered if seeing Eli was the reason until she said it.

“Arianna, you always amaze me. This is your son, you gave birth to him yourself? I mean to ask, did you adopt him?” Genesis asked.

This boy would make her a billionaire for just a single child model. She can’t believe he is truly her son, birthed by her.

“Of course he is my son. I Carried him in my belly for nine months and gave birth to him myself, not even through a caesarian section” Arianna replied and chuckled aloud.

“Arianna, I love you” Genesis said and hugged her again. “I have an appointment. How about we meet tomorrow evening?” Genesis asked.

“Yeah, it’s okay. But first, let me offer you something” Arianna said and stood up. Genesis stood up and gripped her hand “No. I will eat my fill next time. I will always stop by often to check on you and this cute guy” she said and blew him kisses.

Arianna Chuckled and said “His name is Eli” . These cute sweet words in describing her son didn’t really go down well on her.

When Genesis left, Arianna remembered she bought something for Eli. She told him to close his eyes and the little boy did, using his little palm to do so.

She went and got the toy and cap and said “now open your eyes, Eli” and she raised the gift up for him.

“Wow…I love it,” Eli chimed. He hugged his mother, circling his little hands around her thighs. Arianna was happy that Eli liked it.

She gave it to him and he immediately put the cap on. “I will wear this cap every day, mummy,” he said, touching the cap on his head.

“I’m glad you liked it,” Arianna said. She doesn’t have much, but the little she’s able to afford in buying things for Eli, he always appreciated it. She’s glad she’s got such a good kid.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She was supposed to meet her friend Dr Richard but decided to suspend the meeting since she was going to be with Genesis the next day.

She can’t afford to go out that day again, leaving her son all alone by himself. She called him and told him she got the job but would not be able to meet up with him until the next day.

He said okay and he would adjust his schedule and ensure he takes her out for dinner. When Dr Richard hung up, he sighed.

Arianna is always scared of being with him. He had tried several times to help her back in Z-city, but she wouldn’t want to have anything to do with him. She avoids him like plaque.

The next morning, Arianna arrived at the office. She met Mr Ryan who was already in the office and greeted him.

“The CEO is in his office, go and introduce yourself to him before anything else” he instructed and Arianna said okay.

She kept her bag and went to the CEO’s office. She saw Sara had arrived and said good morning to her. She told Sara she was there to introduce herself to the CEO.

“Yes, he’s in” Sara said and Arianna went to the door and knocked gently, she was totally cautious. She was going to Meet the CEO for the first time.

“Come in,” the deep masculine voice said. She pushed the door open and went in. He was working on his computer and didn’t raise his head to see who came in.

“Good morning sir. My name is Arianna…” Arianna was introducing herself when he said “Sit down” he ordered and Arianna sat down on the sofa.

She glanced at the CEO and felt she might have met him. His side view is somewhat familiar.

Few minutes later, he shut his laptop and raised his head to look at the new employee and their eyes locked:
