A couple of hours later, Amy stepped down from Michael's land rover that had just parked before her house. After he drove off, Amy began to walk towards her apartment with a big bag in her hand.
Once she got before the door, she sighted a long shadow and she knew at once that someone was nearby, looking up, she saw Broderick appear before her. His face was cold and too stern.
"Hi!" Amy greeted.
Broderick just stared at her blankly, Amy pretended not to notice his hard gaze and then unlocked her door. She pushed the door open but then thought that it will be rude for her to walk inside, leaving him outside here.
She turned to him and asked," Mr. Broderick, are you here to see me?"
"I need you to follow me somewhere," he said strongly.
"Where could that be? I've just returned from the mall and I'm kind of tired," Amy said.
"When we get there, you'll know," Broderick said. He didn't sound like he was a
Do men cry? Amy thought. Amy had seen women cry on many occasions but this was the first time she will see tears on a man's face.She withdrew her body back slowly, feeling pathetic for the father of her children."I'll take my leave, Mr. Broderick," Amy said and Broderick nodded simply. She turned to the door, pushed it open and walked outBroderick cleaned the single drop of tears on his face. Though he didn't like the way Amy saw tears on his face as it made him feel weak before her but it was uncontrollable. He suddenly sighted something strange from a tall house, as if someone was pointing a long gun to...He traced the direction of the gun to Amy and his heart skipped, seeing that the person was about to cock the gun, he pushed the door open and ran towards her, covering her body with his.The bullet penetrated hard into his back and he coughed out blood, his hand shivering as he fell to his knees. Amy was shocked at w
"I'm not willing to engage in anything romantic with you, Mr. Broderick," Amy suddenly said.Broderick freezed and pulled back. It was surprising but amazing to him that she was able to resist his charm."Okay, is it comfortable for you to lay here for a couple of hours?" Broderick asked."Yes, it's not a problem but I have to leave very early in the morning," Amy said."Alright," Broderick laid gently.A moment of silence graced their midst. After Amy confirmed that Broderick was asleep,she waited a little longer before finding her way to her children's room. She went to the girl's room first and although she felt like she would be disturbing them by waking them up, nonetheless, she thought it will be better to let them know that she came around.She switched on the light in the room and woke the children up one after the
Broderick arrived at the address that Amy had sent to him but to his surprise, the place looked very quiet. There was only a small house there and a large sea before it. He stepped down from his car and wondered if Amy and Michael had decided to perform their wedding over here.He leaned by the door of the car and placed a call across to Amy, he began to hear ringtones of a phone and he turned and saw Amy walking over to him. But what's surprising to him was that Amy was not dressed in a wedding gown. Were they done with the wedding already? Broderick thought."Where is the wedding holding?" Broderick asked."There is no welding holding, Mr. Broderick. I've just been teasing you," Amy said with a smile.Broderick was surprised and at the same time happy, "but why?" He asked."Nothing really," Amy responded."Does that mean you and Michael don't have any relationship at all?" Broderick asked."Our re
Amy took few steps further as if scared. Actually, she can't even read her own emotions at this moment but she was sure she didn't want to stay close to him.Amy turned to Broderick and began to walk back towards him," I seem not to understand what your brother is saying?""What did he say?" Broderick asked her with a frown."You can't discuss our conversation with a third party. Remember we both have secretes, you won't like it it be exposed here," Michael said."Are you threatenIng me, Mr. Michael?" Amy asked with anger."I am not, I just don't want you to tell him our conversation. It should remain between us," Amy interrupted."Were you the one that burned down the family's company?" Broderick asked calmly."I did." He responded."You fucking bastard! You burn down t
Nell ignored Martha's question and said to him," Mr. Ba, it's so much of an honour to meet with you. I'm the first lady of the Alessandro's family. " Nell paused, expecting the man to say something but he just kept mute, so she continued," Broderick Alessandro, my godson was the reason behind our company's fall. He's full of himself and sees himself as god. Hence, he made a lot of enemies. He does not know how to be civil.""What's the point?" Ba asked harshly."I'm saying that although we have lost everything and will soon become the ridicule of the society, my second godson, Michael Alessandro is working hard to take the company up to where it use to be. So I'll like for your family and mine to be friends," Nell said."If you want your family be friend with me, bring Broderick Alessandro here and let him bow before me, then I'll consider your request," Ba said."That wouldn'
Amy walked inside A resturant, straight up to the VVIP longue, when the guards standing by the door saw her, they checked the picture that Michael had given to them and confirming that she was the one that Michael was waiting for, they let her in.Amy walked straight to 'table 4,' Michael could be seeing smiling as he watched her walked towards him. He adored her beauty and her awesome choice of cloth."Please sit," Michael gestured gentlemanly and Amy sat."You are welcome, Amy," Michael said."Thank you," Amy said. Amy had only come over here for the purpose of Broderick. She was worried that Michael may hurt Broderick the more if she didn't come. Since Michael seem not to be capable of hurting her, then he would hurt Broderick, most definitely cause he will think that Broderick was the person who didn't let her honour his invite.Amy thought that Broderick had lost so much, she didn't want him to loose even more.
Broderick sat in his office before his underground personal assistant, the short man who always wear white clothes and shoe, Irvin."Make a public announcement that we are erecting a company twice as big as the burnt Alessandro family's company and that interested companies and groups who are willing to apply to bid for a contract in the various works of the building only have forty eight hours to do so," Broderick commanded."Alright, boss," Irvin said and walked away.Broderick then relaxed back to his chair for a few seconds after which he picked up his phone and put a call across to Amy, she answered almost immediately."Hi, Mr. Broderick," she greeted."Miss. Cleo, if you aren't too busy, I'll like to invite you over to dinner in my mansion. I'll use that opportunity to introduce you to my six kids. You will like them, I assure you," Broderick s
Nell stepped down from the cab that took her to the mini building that was built before the large piece of land that Ba's mega company was to be bult. When she was about entering the mini building, she heard someone call her name from behind and on turning, she saw Martha.She immediately remembered that her father's company were also focused on Designs and Decorations. Were they also here to bid for a contract. If the mayor's family bid for a contract, then she and Broderick doesn't even have a chance to win. She was thinking about this as Martha approached her."Hey, Miss Cleo," Martha greeted. It's been a couple of months that Amy hasn't seen Martha so she greeted back gently."Hi, miss." Since she was putting on a new identity, she had to pretend like she doesn't recognize her."I'm Martha, the daughter of the mayor of this City. I've heard a few things about you and it's really nice to see you," Martha said.Amy s
