Chapter 155
Chapter 155 Irvin sighed, “My life took a massive turn when I ran away from my father’s house. You can’t understand.” Irvin had lived a very dark life in the past, even now, he was still living in the dark. Amy wasn’t ready to reveal her identity yet plus she needs to be sure of what Irvin was saying first,” | don’t know her, sorry.” A sport car parked before Amy and Irvin at that moment and the door opened immediately, once Amy saw Broderick, she excused herself from Irvin and walked inside. “Did we secure the contract, miss Cleo?” Broderick asked as he drove. “Yes,” Amy replied dully. Her heart became very heavy ever since Irvin revealed his identity to him. With the way Irvin was speaking, there was an high chance that he was telling the truth. Broderick glanced at her and on seeing her dull face, he asked, “miss Cleo. You should be happy we get the contract, why are you sad? Did anyone bully you?” “No. Though the man who was receiving contract applications is a ruthless man but he didn’t touch me, I just hope we would be able to work with such a man with very high temper.” Amy said.
“As long as we deliver our job well, we shouldn’t have any problem with him.” “Right.” “Can I ask what that man was talking to you about?” Broderick asked. Before Amy could respond, her phone chirped briefly and she opened the text message that an unknown number sent, and it was a picture of her mother with the caption, “If you find my sister, tell her, brother misses her and that she should reach out to me to collect the gift mother kept with me to give her when she becomes an adult.” Amy knew the sender was certainly Irvin. With the picture that Amy saw, she was now getting convinced that Irvin may really be her brother. Afterall, only her and her father has her mother’s picture, no one else. What type of gift could her mother want Irvin to give her? “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 covered with black. Amy looked towards the direction of his hand and had a clear guess of what it could be based on its shape. She walked towards it quickly and removed what was used to cover it. She screamed merrily on seeing a brand new latest Bentley “You got this for me?” She screamed merrily and hugged him. “It’s yours.” Broderick said as he received her hug. After she disengaged and began to examine the car, Broderick said,” you are a very virtuous woman. You deserve even more.” Amy blushed. She remembered the days that Broderick used to call her a shameless and promiscuous woman. Now, he was referring to her as a virtous woman. Her already deflated mood was now elated. “Thank you,” she said shyly. This car was far beyound her dream car, Broderick handed over the key of the car to her and asked,” can you drive or shall I get you someone to teach you how to drive?” “I learnt driving when I was in college, yes, I can drive,” she said and when she was about to open the door of the car, she paused and turned to him, “but Mr. Broderick, you don’t even have much at the moment. Your accounts has been freezed and your company is down. How can you afford this?” “Don’t be worried, miss. Cleo. I still have some savings in our local banks. Plus we have just secured a
contract from a Ba’s company, so I would have more income,” Broderick humbly said. “Oh! Right,” Amy said. But she still thought that this car was too exorbitant. She got inside the car and started the ignition. The car sounded so cool. She drove it a few distance away and drove it back. Broderick smiled and watched as she drove the car. After she had driven the car, she stepped down and went to hug him agaim. After she disengaged, she said, “you can’t imagine how happy I am.” “I’m glad you are happy, miss Cleo,” Broderick smiled. Amy took a glance at the car again. She never expected this kind of gift.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
