Chapter 16: Likely Chase’s son

“We need to leave here now” Arianna declared and stood up. Richard lifted Eli and Carried him over his shoulders.

He knew it. The little fellow would attract attention to himself, he knew it. He’s so cute and for the fact that he looked like Chase Hudson, was another reason.

“This is the second time. That’s why I always prefer Eli to be home whenever I go out. He would attract attention and many would even pause to touch his hands” Arianna complained, her forehead covered with beads of sweat.

“Who said you should have a cute little guy as a son?” Genesis teased before saying “I wish I could get a cute guy to get me pregnant, Arianna” and glanced outside the window.

Richard glanced at her from the centre rear mirror and smiled. He likes such women. Genesis kept impressing him with her free open mindedness. He is getting attracted to her.

“Are you crazy, Genesis. You think I am not beautiful to have such a good looking boy? You are so annoying” Arianna feigned annoyance.

Richard was now driving out of the pack. Thank goodness the windows were all rolled up and no one can see Eli again.

“Common Arianna. You are a beautiful woman, no doubt. But this boy doesn’t look anything like you. His cuteness was definitely from his dad not you” Genesis analysed.

“You know my Daddy?” Eli asked, holding Genesis’ hand and tugging at her. The atmosphere in the car became cold and quiet.

Genesis glanced at the rear centre mirror, her eyes locked with Richard and next at Arianna whose complexion had gone ashen.

“Tell me Aunt Gene, do you know my Daddy? I want to meet him already” Eli asked and started sobbing.

“Eli.. my love…ha.. hun” Arianna was lost for words. She didn’t know he could understand Genesis words and picked it up from there.

“Eli dear. How about you call me godfather? You see it really doesn’t make a difference. Father, godfather, it’s almost the same. And I will love you like your real dad would” Richard demanded and pulled up by the road side.

“Really? You are my godfather?” Eli asked, Genesis pulling him into a warm embrace and cleaning his tears.

“Yes, right Arianna?” Richard asked and Arianna nodded “yes , honey, your godfather is Richard”

“How about you call Uncle Richard godfather” Genesis chipped in, planting a featherlight kiss on his temple.

“And will you be my godmother, then?” Eli asked, glancing up at Genesis. “Huh…” Genesis was caught unawares.

She glanced at Richard and his gaze was fixed on her. He wasn’t cautious but allowed his eyes to remain glued on her.

“Yeah, sure I am your godmother now” Genesis announced.

The picture of the cute Eli was sent to social media. And quickly, it went viral. Amelia Hudson saw it and was dazed. This little boy must be her grandson from Chase.

She hasn’t been able to talk Chase into taking a wife. He always has a way to wiggle his way out, using Jace as an excuse. He would claim that since Jace, who was older, hasn’t been married, he still wants to wait until his brother does.

But Jace is her innocent decent son. He doesn’t have a woman and he doesn’t have time to live a flirty promiscuous life like his younger brother Chase was doing.

She picked up her phone and Called Jace. “Jace, I want you and Chase to come home for dinner. I will tell your father as well. Meanwhile, a picture of a child is on the internet. Take care of it, it’s likely Chase’ son from his numerous love affairs” Amelia instructed.

“Okay, mum,” Jace nodded. He hung up and stared at the picture of the little boy that popped up on his phone. This boy might be Chase’s son. He looks very much like them.

Chase soon came over to his brother’s office. “Jace, did you see that picture? That boy on the internet…” he was saying when Jace declared “He is likely your son. That’s what happen when you fuck any woman that catches your attention. You have a son but don’t know about his existence.

Who knows how many more kids you’ve got that you do not know about?” Jace glared at him with resentment. “Mom wants us home for dinner,” he added.

“Until the DNA is done and I find the boy can I agree that he’s mine. I have ordered Nicolas to delete a trace of it from the internet. I don’t want to attract scandal” Chase updated.

“That’s better. I want that boy found. Send men to find out about him. No child of the Hudson’s family should be outside the family’s knowledge. You need to be careful with women you have sex with without protection” Jace instructed.

“Yes, I will have the child investigated and know who his mother is” Chase Hudson declared and went out. Jace is the eldest master of the Hudson’s family and he is now the head of the family while his father and uncle stayed by the sideline and watched him pioneer the affairs of the family.

He sighed and felt uncomfortable. He seemed to be familiar with that boy. Has he met him before? That boy looks exactly like him more than Chase.

But Chase is his brother, it is quite understandable if the boy looks like him being his uncle. He just wants the child to be found and a DNA performed.

If he was indeed Chase ‘s son, he would have him live in Hudson’s castle until his father is ready to get along with his mother.

Chase was the first to arrive at Hudson’s castle. His parents had scolded him, telling him he had a son outside wedlock. He was determined to bring the Hudson’s family down with his promiscuous life.

The name and reputation they have built over the years was going into ruin. Thanks to him, for not being able to secure his dick in his pants.

Jace arrived and met his parents scolding Chase. The latter looked silent, his head bowed and he couldn’t raise it or say anything in defence.

He hasn’t met the boy yet but the resemblance was striking. The cute fellow looks like him. He hadn’t met him and his mother but he hoped when he’s found, the DNA will confirm it.

“I’m sorry dad. I will do the needful and be careful next time when I am with a woman..”Chase apologised when suddenly, his mother interrupted him .

“What are you even saying, Chase? You will be careful when you are with a woman next time, huh? You should think about getting married and stay faithful to your wife.

I want you to bring a woman to me. I want you to find your son’s mother and get married to her, if she’s still single. Get married Chase and stop living like this” She yelled at him.

“Mom, talking about marriage, I think Jace should be the one you should be saying that to” Chase defended.

Jace glared at him and frowned.
