Chapter 177
She left his presence and walked painfully towards the door, when she held the knob of the door, tears flooded her eyes. If Broderick cannnot help her, then there was no one who can.
“Miss. Cleo,”Debby suddenly called and ran to Amy. She hugged Amy tightly.
Amy cleaned the tears on her face and carried the little girl whereas, Broderick was watching.
“Are you leaving us now?” Debby asked Amy, almost crying. She had heard Broderick shout on Amy. “Your dad wants me to leave. I have to,” Amy said and the uncontrollable tears find it’s way down her cheek.
Debby looked at Broderick and said,” dad, didn’t you promise me that you will settle the disagreement between you and miss Cleo.” I
“Yes, I did. But that was when miss. Cleo and I have a minor agreement but now, miss Cleo and I have a major agreement. She’s getting married to another man on Saturday. Here is her with her husband,” Broderick walked over to Debby who was in Amy arms and showed her the screen of his phone. It was the picture of Amy resting her head on Michael’s chest and huggung her.
Debby’s heart broke. Was her mother planning to marry someone else? Then how will she fix them? Debby was dissapointed in Amy, she turned to Amy with a dissapointed look. Amy understood how she felt and dropped her gently,” miss. Cleo, why are you getting married to someone else and not our dad? Don’t you know our dad will be hurt?”

“It’s complicated and I have explained to him,” Debby said.
“She’s not worthy of being your mother. Don’t worry, I will find a cultured woman with self respect who will love you dearly. She will come and act as your mother,” Broderick said.
“We don’t want,” Elijah, Elisha and Moses who had been secretly listening to the conversation suddenly appeared. “If Miss. Cleo can’t be our mun, then no one else can,” Elijah said.
Michael turned to the three little handsome boys, “miss Cleo has fallen in love with someone else and will get married on Saturday.”
“Stop the marriage, dad,” Elisha said.
“Huh!” Broderick was stupefied.
“See Miss. Cleo’s eyes,” Moses pointed to Amy’s eyes, Broderick trailed after Moses’s hand and went to look at Amy’s eyes, not seeing anything else apart from tears, he turned back to the kids,” what’s in her eyes?
“Love. Miss Cleo loves you. Whoever she’s having a wedding with on Saturday must be forcing her. to, cancel the wedding, dad and make her yours.” Moses declared. Broderick was stupefied to hear the kids speak this way. Broderick walked over to the boys and showed then a picture of Amy resting her head on Michael and hugging her, “did you still think that the man is forcing her?”
The boys were also surprised to see the picture, they looked at Amy and wondered if she was truly in love with another man. Being in love with someone else is like abandoning them cause once she
marries someone else, Broderick would eventually get another woman who would act as their mother.
Amy almost cried. She didn’t know that Michael took the picture of her resting on him and sent it to Broderick. She was only trying to comfort him, she wasn’t doing that cause she loved him but who will beleive her? The picture speaks a volume and everyone now sees her as a bad person.
Amy looked away shamefully, she regretted many things she has done. Michael only took advantage of the fact that she had a very soft heart and couldn’t stand someone get hurt.
“You guys can go inside, “Broderick said after a few seconds of silence.
The boys exchanged a surprising look, they didn’t know what to say again. They can’t assume that a man is forcing marriage on their mother when infact, it was their mother resting comfortably at the bossom of the man.
