"Mr. Broderick, what are you doing here?" Amy asked with a palpitating heart, though she still has her shade on, she couldn't help the fear lingering in her heart. She felt very exposed before him.
"I'm not here for you, I am here to see the woman who lives here," Broderick said.
Once Michael drove off from where his car broke down, Broderick wrote the plate number of Michael's car and sent it to Brett, telling him to track the final destination of the car. Once Brett informed him that the final destination of the car was Amy's old apartment. He drove there himself without informing anyone since it was almost getting dark.
Amy knew the woman Broderick was talking about. It was the woman that Michael sent to temporarily occupy this place when Broderick was coming here few days back.
"Oh! She's out of town. Are you guys friends?" Amy asked.
"I should ask you instead if you are friend with her. Or should I rather say roommate,"
Whereas, Amy had been given access into the mansion. She walked straight to her children's room. It will be a surprise to them cause they had no idea she would be coming, she thought that to herself.Once she got before the door, she sighed merrily and twisted the knob, once the door opened, she saw each of the children burying their faces on their laptops. Each of them now has a laptop.There were so engrossed in what they were doing that it took another five seconds after she had entered the room for Moses to causally raise his head to see who had entered, once he saw Amy, he pushed his laptop to a side and screamed," mummy!" He jumped off the bed and ran speedily towards Amy.Amy carried him and hugged him dearly. Oh my! She had missed her kids so dearly. Other kids were already up and soon ran around her, hugging her dearly. Amy didn't know when tears began to stream down her face.Once the girls saw their mother crying, they b
Broderick was shocked to see her shut the door on him. He hasn't done anything wrong, he thought to himself. Broderick knew she mumbled aome angry words but he couldn't make a meaning of what she said.Perhaps, she was angry because she showed up early this morning. He turned and walked back to where his car was. His two hands gripped the steering. He tightened his hand on the steering as though he would break it, his head rest helplessly on the headrest of the chair.*Amy walked back to her sit after hearing Broderick's car zoom off. She walked over to her living room and sunk to the seat. Her eyes darted seldomly to the TV before her and all of a sudden, she sat upright with so much seriousness on her face and that was as a result of what she saw.She saw Broderick Alessandro being carried inside an ambulance, her heart sunk into sadness that she cluthed her fist hard. What in the world went wrong with him? Didn't he just leave this p
Broderick was quiet for a few seconds after her request then he asked," can we meet, please?""Erm... probably not now but once I'm less busy, I'll let you know," Amy said. It wasn't as though Amy had anything she was doing, she just doesn't want to be too available for him."Alright," Broderick didn't persuade her to let them meet at all. 'Being civil with her will make her feel comfortable around him' Broderick thought. They baded themselves bye after which Broderick dropped his phone back to the bed."Two days to the wedding, Theresa could be seen alongside her mothers and her father in the most luxurious shopping mall in NorthHill. Only the first class citizen of NorthHill were known to shop here.They were all in the section of the mall that has different wedding gowns, there was a particular wedding gown whose design was outside of this world. It was so glaring that this type of wedding dress was most definitely a lim
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
