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
"It's nothing serious, I'd like to keep it personal," Amy said to Broderick as he drove. Broderick wondered what Irvin could have gone out of his building to discuss with Amy. Even if Amy forgot something on his table, Irvin would rather wait for her to come back for it rather than to leave his office to give her or was it because he respected the relationship that may subsists between Amy and him?Irvin was however one of the few people he trusted the most in this world. Broderick ignored and concentrated on driving, "will you like to spend some time with me or do you want to go home?" "I kind of have a lot on my mind, I'll like to go home," Amy said. "Alright," Broderick didn't stress her at all. When they got before her house, they both stepped down from the car. "Miss. Cleo, did you remember that I said I once have a gift for you?" Broderick asked. "Yes, and that's the flower you presented to me, right?" Amy asked. "Over there," Broderick pointed to something big that was co
Mayor, Edith and Nell have received the news of Ba's presence outside, they all ran outside to see for themselves. Ba had told them that he wouldn't come yet he seemed to be present here. However, when they got outside, they were shocked to see Ba holding Amy's hand possessively. There was so much rage in his ugly and scarred face and he looked like someone who will burn down an entire city. Nell quickly walked towards him and bowed slightly, " Mr. Ba, it's such an honour to have you here." Ba looked at her with an angry look and turned to Michael who was just trying to stand from the floor, " next time you touch her, I'll kill you." Everywhere became as quiet as graveyard, he took her inside his car and his driver drove away.Amy was first of all glad that she escaped Michael's evil plot but why does Ba sound so much like Broderick? Or was that just a coincidence? Even his stature was like that of Broderick. Amy was scared to look at his face though she beheld it secretly when h
"And so what? As if it was entirely his fault. Infact, you were the reason behind it," Amy said. "Miss Cleo!" Michael called and walked towards her. "Please don't come close to me. Tell your godmother to leave here with these people," Amy said. Nell had an angry look on her face," you must be feeling yourself now because the most powerful man in NorthHill identified himself publicly with you and even called you his woman. Speaks so much of whom you really are, a slut! You have seduced the most powerful man in NorthHill with your craftiness, wow! Wow!" Nell clapped. Amy became very enraged at Nell. How could she refer to her as such name? "Mother, please don't call miss. Cleo a slut. She's not. She's going to be your daughter in law soon so please be understanding towards her. Ba must be mistaken when he announced her as his womam," Michael said. Amy smirked at Michael's foolish words," If Ba made a mistake in identifying himself with me and announcing me as his woman did he also
Irvin immediately parked and called again," boss!""This is the second time I'm seeing you with my woman. It's even more suspicious that you brought her to this private place," Broderick said. "She's my sister," Irvin responded and Broderick was surprised. "I lost her many years ago when I ran away from home. But I'm glad I found her now." "What did you think I'm supposed to know about this sister of yours?" Broderick asked. Thinking that there were some things that Amy might be hiding from him but would definitely tell her brother. "We haven't really spoken much. I confirmed she's my sister today and we plan to meet again in the future," Irvin said. "Drive," Broderick said and Irvin began to drive. "What's her real name?" Broderick suddenly asked as they drive. "I don't believe her real name is Cleo. If she's truly your sister, you should know her real name. Brett made a research of her name in the data base of all the names of every citizen of NorthHill but her name can not be
