Chapter 142
“Yeah…” Amy looked at the boats parked at the parking lot of the sea and imagined how it will be like,
only Broderick and her sailing the sea! How sweet would that be?
The weather changed all of a sudden and the slightly cold atmosphere began to get very cold. When
they both looked at the cloud, they could tell that a heavy rain was about to pour.
The wind began to blow and Amy curved her hand around her body, “it’s getting so cold.”
Broderick removed his suit and covered her body with it, leaving him with his white shirt.
“You will feel cold this way,” Amy said, it was obvious his white shirt can not prevent the heavy cold that
the weather was currently producing.
“I have a strong body, I can survive it. Let’s wait a few more minutes for Brett then we can leave here. Is
that alright by you?” He asked,
“Yes,” Amy responded, shamelessly looking at his cute face.
A few seconds of silence passed between them then Broderick spoke, “Or would you come closer to me
so I can keep you in my hug?”
Amy blushed and nodded shyly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBroderick gestured for her to come closer and she did. She laid her head on his chest gently and curved
her two arms around his back, hugging him so closely.
She remained there and felt warmth despite the heavy wind blowing around. A car suddenly drove
roughly into the arena they were and Brett immediately stepped down from his Lamborghini.
He walked swiftly towards Broderick and looked at him with a teary gaze. Amy pulled away from
Broderick’s hug slowly and when she saw the look on Brett’s face, her heart skipped wondering what has
gone wrong.
“Tell me what happened,” Broderick requested, he was still able to put his destabilized emotion under
control.
“The Alessandro’s family had laboured so hard from generation to generation to build the biggest
building in not only our country but our continent. This building is what you currently own and where our
company operate from. Sir… Just a couple of minutes ago, the building caught fire and the more the fire
extinguisher men try to quench the fire, the more it explodes. It was as if there were so many gas that
had been placed in different rooms of the building. Though the fire had stopped but the building was
badly damaged and we lost every single thing in it,” Brett said, tears streaming down heavily from his
face.
“I insured my family’s company against fire accident. The insurance company must answer for it,”
Broderick said.
“The insurance company went bankrupt a month ago and their CEO alongside their major executives
travelled out of NorthHill just a week ago,” Brett responded.
“This seems like a planned work. From the freezing of my account to destroying my fore father’s sweat.
Whoever is behind this must be a very powerful person in North Hill.” Broderick said thoughtfully,
Amy was staring at Broderick in shock, she had thought he would break down but despite the huge
loss, Broderick didn’t break down at all. Or maybe he was just pretending.
“Sir, what do we do?” Brett asked.
“Send me the names of all the powerful families in NorthHill and their previous dealing with the
Alessandro’s family, Broderick commanded. “There won’t be any need for that,’ a figure appeared behind
a tall tree that was not too far from them.
When they all turned to see this figure, it turned out to be Michael Alessandro. His face was calm as
usual but his aura was strange.
“Mr. Michael, what are you doing here?” Amy took a step further to Michael and asked.
Broderick held her hand and pulled her closer,” don’t go to him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Huh?” Michael smiled and walked closer to Amy. He handed Amy a big portrait and she received it
slowly, Amy checked the portrait and saw her childhood picture, she was resting on the shoulders of
Michael who also looked very young in the picture.
Truth was, when Amy was ten years old, her stepmother pushed her from the top of the stairs and she
fell with her head to the floor making her loose her childhood memories. She had amnesia as a result of
that but had moved on since then and didn’t really see it as a big deal anymore.
Amy expressed confusion and when she wanted to say something, Michael placed his finger on her lips
to shut her up. “Some things are better not said before…” He motioned to Broderick and then held Amy
on the second hand,’ please come with me, I need to tell you something.”
Amy looked at Broderick who was still holding onto her hand, she removed her hand from Broderick’s
grip and took a few walks away with Michael.
“Mi Ami, Michael said and caressed Amy’s hair down gently.
Amy was just looking at him confused.
“Mi Ami was the name I was found of calling you when you were young. I remember how we run races
together in my father’s yard. I always tell you not to come over during weekends to my place cause my
father is always around but you will still come cause you miss me a lot. Mi Ami! Oh Mi Ami! I have
missed you so much, Michael said.
