Chapter 227
His face suddenly got covered and before he could make a meaning of what was going on, he became
unconscious and by the time he became conscious, he realized he was in a different large room. He was
only on a pant and was tied from the chest to the foot of the pole behind him.
He thought this was a dream. How could he, the most powerful man in NorthHill be treated in this
manner? Who dared to do this to him?
The light in the room suddenly shone brighter and Broderick walked in with an angry face.
“You! How dare you?” Michael shouted angrily.
“You killed an innocent man. Did you really think I will let you go? How did you expect me to feel about
the fact that an innocent man died on my behalf?” Broderick asked as he walked over to him. “I will make
your life a living hell. I tell you this, you will regret the day you were born.”
Broderick commanded two of his men to appear and once they do, he commanded them to give Michael
a hundred strokes each.
Broderick sat on a wooden chair as he watched his men flog Michael mercilessly. Michael kept

canes hit him on different part of his body.
By the time the men were done, he had almost given up on life. He coughed a number of times, thick
saliva pouring by itself from his mouth. He had scars all over his body and was feeling terribly hurt in his
body.
Broderick dismissed the men that just flogged him and crossed his legs,” we are just getting started.”
Michael was too weak to even speak, he just lowered his head like someone that would die the next
moment.
Broderick received a call during this period and seeing that the caller ID was Jane, he answered it and
Jane’s voice came through,” sir, miss Amy is having a serious fever and headache. I have persuaded her
to let us go to the hospital but she refused.”
“I’ll be there,” Broderick said and stood. As Broderick made an attempt to walk out, Michael spoke,” If I
ever get out of here alive, not only will you suffer, your children will pay earnestly for it?”
“It’s smart you used the word ‘if to start your sentence cause actually, a murderer like you will never
make it out of here alive,” Broderick said and walked out.
He went to Amy’s mansion with his escorts. He can’t afford to drive alone during this period cause he
had to be security conscious now.
He stepped down quickly and walked towards Amy’s apartment. The door wasn’t fully locked so he
simply pushed the door open and once he saw Joan, he asked, “Is she in her room?”
“Yes.”
Broderick immediately walked inside the room and saw how weak Amy looked.
“Amy!” Broderick called caringly and Amy looked at him, she swallowed and said,” I don’t know why I feel
so hurt about Callan’s death. I have not been able to eat!”
“It was Michael who killed him,” Broderick broke the news to her.
Amy adjusted to sit while Broderick went to sit beside her, “will you lay your head on my chest?”
Amy laid her head on his chest and curved her arms around him,” Michael is such a heartless beast. So
he actually wanted to kill you.”
“Yes but don’t worry, he will beg for death,” Broderick said and added,” let me bath you, please.”
Amy didn’t respond, she couldn’t stop thinking about how cruel Michael was, yet he had presented
himself to her as a gentleman when they newly met. She hated Michael even more. She hated how
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdesperate Michael was, how could he even think of murdering Broderick? His own brother.
Broderick pushed her away gently and positioned himself in such a way that he will be able to carry her,
he carried her and took her to the bathroom then began to undress her. Amy was not shy at all, maybe
because they already saw each other’s nakedness a few days ago. After she was naked before him,
Broderick placed her in the bathtub and began to bath for her like a father bathing his daughter. After he
was done bathting her, Amy felt refreshed and the heavy burden she felt on her became light. Broderick
helped her out of the bathtub and dried her body with the towel.
Afterwards, he carried her on the bed and laid her gently on the bed, “I don’t think you have a plan of
going out today?” “I don’t. I couldn’t sleep all night but I think I feel better now,” Amy said Broderick
smiled. He was also happy seeing her. As if they were eachother’s dose of happiness. When Amy saw
him smiling, she also smiled. Broderick laid beisde her and covered both of them with the duvet. “Who
sleeps with a suit on?” Amy chuckled. Broderick giggled,” I just want to help you to sleep then I’ll leave.”
“You want to leave me after I have slept?” Amy expressed a sad but playful face. Broderick caressed her
cheek and said,” I’ll be here with you until you let me go.”
