Chapter 217
“Amy, please give me the honour of driving you home?” Michael requested. Amy was already angry that
Broderick dared to make an attempt to slap her, in order to get back to him, she accepted Michael’s offer.
“Sure,” Amy smiled and Broderick watched as Michael opened the door of his car gentlemanly for Amy
while he went to sit at the driver’s seat and drove away.
“Bitch!” Martha cursed angrily. She really wished Broderick slapped Amy hard. Broderick felt bad. Not like
he wanted to slap her, he would never do that. He only wanted to scare her and see if she would be
scared but before he could let his real intention known, the bastard Michael appeared.
“You should go back to the hospital to rest,” Broderick said.
“Please lead me back inside,” Martha pleaded.
Broderick wanted to bluntly refuse at first cause he just loathed this woman. Even him did not know why.
He was only forcing himself to stay with her in this marriage cause of ‘their’ six kids.
“Sure,” Broderick surpressed all the emotions he was feeling and led her back to the ward. After she had
laid back on the bed, he excused himself and went to the children but he was surprised that they were

Were they given a sleeping pill? Broderick thought as he starred at the kids who were laying on the bed.
Cause how can they be asleep for hours? “Dad!” Debby suddenly called and he immediately walked
towards her,” my baby, you are awake.” He caressed her head gently and kissed her forehead
lovingly.”do you feel any
pain?”
When Debby saw the bandage in her hand, she asked, “No dad what happened to me?”
“You and your sisters had an accident,” Broderick said.
Debby furrowed her brow in shock and sat upright, she looked to the left and right and saw her sisters
laying quietly on the bed,” are they fine?” She asked about her sisters from Broderick
“Yes, but they are asleep. We will just wait for them to wake up,” Broderick said. She heaved a sigh of
relief and said,” dad, I had a dream.” “A dream?” Broderick sat on the edge of her bed and requested,
“please tell me about it?”
“Did you remember that woman that came to our house a couple of weeks ago? The one we were
scared of?” Debby asked.
“Yes, I do.” Broderick responded. “I saw her in our dream, she was… It was like she was our mother. She
was living with us in the same house,” Debby said. Broderick furrowed his brow in surprise,” oh! How did
you know she’s your mother in the dream?”
*My brothers and my sisters and I were calling her ‘mum.’ I saw us playing together with her,” Debby
said, trying to recollect every details of her dream. “oh! Dream can be somehow, don’t worry about it,
okay?” Debby thought about her dream for a couple of seconds and said to Broderick,” but what if she’s
our mother truly? No one knows who our mother truly is since we lost our memories.”
“She can’t be your mother, trust me. Have you ever doubted Martha as your mother?”
Debby thought quietly and said,” she’s a nice woman.” *A nice woman?” Broderick was stupefied at how
Debby described Martha.
“Has Martha hurt you in any way?”
“Not that I can remember of but there is one question that she will never be able to answer,” Debby said.
“Tell me about it.”
“Mum can’t provide our pictures of when we were young. Is it possible for us not to take pictures when
we were little? Of course not. Every parents always take their children’s picture when they are young and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmas they grow. How come she doesn’t have any of our young pictures?” Broderick thought about what
Debby said and saw that it really made sense. “Dad, you also lost your memory so you can not really be
so sure of the truth. Don’t you see that none of us has any resemblance whatsoever with mum?” Debby
asked. Debby and the girls and the boys had deliberated about this matter a number of times, they didn’t
trust Martha hundred percent that she was their mother no matter how much Martha tried to be good to
them
Now that Broderick thinks about what Debby said, none of the children had any similarities to Martha.
“How about a DNA test?” Debby asked.
What did you know about DNA?” Broderick asked his little girl. He was even surprised that she was
talking maturedly. Not many kids of her age can speak in the same way that she was speaking. Speaking
with Debby was like he was speaking with an adult. And now, his daughter even knows what DNA İS.
“I made research about how a child can confirm whom her biological parents are and apart from
resemblance, one of the ways listed was to perform a DNA test. Since we are all in the hospital now, why
don’t we perform a DNA?” Debby asked.
Everything was coming so fast to Broderick. *From the day you saw that woman who came to our house,
you haven’t thought about her, right?” Broderick asked
“I was even scared of her. How can I think about her?” She asked.
