Chapter 70


    Chapter 70 Greatest Disgrace


    “I’m not willing to engage in anything romantic with you, Mr. Broderick,” Amy suddenly said.


    Broderick freezed and pulled back. It was surprising but amazing to him that she was able to resist his


    charm.


    “Okay, is itfortable for you toy here for a couple of hours?” Broderick asked. “Yes, it’s not a


    problem but I have to leave very early in the morning,” Amy said. “Alright,” Broderickid gently.


    A moment of silence graced their midst. After Amy confirmed that Broderick was asleep,she waited a


    little longer before finding her way to her children’s room. She went to the girl’s room first and although


    she felt like she would be disturbing them by


    waking them up, nheless, she thought it will be better to let them know that she came around.


    She switched on the light in the room and woke the children up one after the other. They were all


    shocked and happy to see their


    mother, Amy yed with them for a couple of minutes before she pet them back to sleep.


    The few minutes she spent with them made her so happy. She examined the children’s merry and sleepy


    face then walked out


    happily from their room. She went to the boy’s room and woke them up also, she yed with them for a


    few minutes and wanted to lead them back to sleep but they had already stopped sleeping.


    She spent up to an hour with the boys, they were gisting about every single thing that had been going on


    with them both at


    school and at home with Amy and it was a lovely moment.


    The little ones eventually got tired and began to sleep one after the other. When the whole world seemed


    to be causing her pain


    again and again, her children will always be the reason for her happiness.


    Her mood became very ted and she walked back to Broderick’s room andid gently, just five minutes


    after she hadid, Broderick woke and turned to her,” didn’t you sleep at all?” “Not at all. I’m actually not


    feeling sleepy,” Amy said.


    Broderick stood from the bed and checked his watch,” I guess it’s time for you to leave, right?”


    “Yes,” Amy also stood.


    Broderickmanded his head of guards to lead Amy home.


    On Saturday at B Hotel, there was a big card at the entrance of the hotel that had ‘Broderick


    Alessandro Weds Theresa Roscoe.’ Inside the hotel, there was an unusual number of exorbitant cars


    parked.


    Inside the the most beautiful and luxurious hall were many powerful families in North Hill seated


    majestically around their tables.


    The mayor and Edith were also here. Nell sat at the forefront while Broderick and Theresa sat right


    beside her. Also there were a few journalists who were given ess to the building and there was a TV


    station videographer who was covering the event. Right from this moment, the TV station had started


    disying what was going on inside the hall for everyone


    seated at home to watch.


    Broderick was dressed in his tailored suit while Theresa wore an expensive wedding gown. Though the


    wedding gown she was wearing wasn’t the one she really wished she wear but Michael Alessandro and


    Amy went away with the limited edition gown at the mall leaving Theresa then no option but to go for the


    next avable gown.


    “Today is our wedding but your parents aren’t here,” Broderick said quietly to Theresa. He didn’t see any


    reason to see Theresa’s parents before the wedding but he beleived that at the very least, they were


    supposed toe to the wedding that was holding today but after secretly surveying the hall and didn’t


    see any notice of her parent, he had to ask. ‘Oh! I was supposed to tell you… My parents won’t be able


    toe because my father is sick and my mother needs to attend to him,” Theresa lies


    Broderick only hummed and looked away.


    Nell had his eyes set on Broderick and Theresa and she was happy that everything was going as


    nned.


    Edith was also very happy that everything was going as nned but the mayor wasn’t happy at all. Ever


    since Amy had ‘died, he


    had not truly been himself. He finds himself thinking about her often and he can’t help it eventhough he


    beleived that she was not his daughter.


    The emcee of the weddingmenced the wedding ceremony and all sorts of events rolled over and it


    were lovely sessions.


    Now, it was time for the emcee to call forth the bride and the groom. He did that and the couple stepped


    forward adorably. Everyone graced them with a p and many people who were watching from home


    pped too eventhough they knew the couple couldn’t hear their ps. Manydies discussed about


    how lucky Theresa was to win Broderick’s heart. It’s many women’s dream in North Hill to be


    Broderick’s wife. Despite how tough and stern Broderick was rumoured to be, many people still wished


    for him to be their lover.


    It’s weird how the women of North Hill loved the devil falling in love with them than an angel.


    “Mr. Broderick, did you ept Miss Theresa as yourwfully wedded wife? Either in good health or in


    bad health, in poverty or in riches, will you remain with her?”


    “Yes,” Broderick’s response was brief and a loud cheers could be heard from the crowd.


    The emcee set his gaze on Theresa,” Miss. Theresa, did you ept Mr. Broderick as yourwfully


    wedded husband? In good health or bad health? In poverty or in wealth, would you stay and be loyal to


    him?”


    “Yes…yes,” Theresa blushed and the crowds cheered them again.


    “Let the bride and the groom kiss,” the emcee said and a heavy cheers sounded from the audience,


    many even stood emotionally to watch the scene.


    It will be such an interesting scene watching the most powerful man in North Hill, who is known for his


    aloofness and sternness kissing…aww…how sweet will the sight be?


    Manydies who were watching from home even blushed on behalf of Theresa.


    Broderick had a straight gaze, it was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad.


    Theresa had dreamed so much for this moment, she leaned towards Broderick shyly and Broderick


    lowered his face gently to hers that their face was now an inch away. A loud voice suddenly errupted. It


    was unexpected. Everyone including Broderick traced where the voice wasing from only to see a


    large screen disying a video in front of everyone. The heading on the video was ‘How Miss. Theresa


    killed Mr. Broderick’s Mistress Out Of Jealousy. The heading alone shocked everyone, including people


    watching from home. Everyone never expected this twist. Many that were


    at home had to stand to watch this drama, their hands folded in all seriousness and many prayed that


    this channel won’t be cut


    off.


    Infact, news had immediately reached the ears of those who were not interested or too busy to follow up


    Broderick’s wedding. At this moment, almost everyone in North Hill, including a month old child had their


    eyes on the screen.


    Broderick took a step further to the screen, his phone rang at that moment and he answered it,”


    someone is trying to cause a scandal to you, shall we end the video?” “No, leave it, I want to watch,”


    Broderick told Brett who had almost given order for the video to be brought down.


    Therge screen disyed how Theresa was carefully looking around in Broderick’s kitchen to be sure


    that there was no oneing. The way she was peeping was enough to tell that she was up to no good.


    Many people began to rumor immediately but they soon kept quiet, they want to watch the video until the


    end before the began to judge Theresa,


    Theresa prayed for the ground to open and swallow her. Isn’t this shame that was about to befall her in


    public too worse than death? Tears were forming quickly on Theresa’s face.


    Edith almost ran mad looking at therge screen that had her disguised daughter in. Of course, an


    anonymous somebody sent them the video but in their weirdest imagination, they never thought that the


    video will be yed on a day like this.


    | Therge screen disyed how Theresa brought out a liquid drug from her pocket and sprinkled it on a


    particr food.


    The voice over the video then spoke,” it was this food that Amy, Mr. Broderick’s mistress ate that she


    began to foam. Many people only knew that Mr. Broderick’s mistress died, not many people knew she


    died of food poisoning. And Theresa was the one behind it.”


    The video then came to an end.


    Many people became very angry at Theresa, infact, if they could stone her to death, they would. There


    were many angry average


    people in the city who ran from their house to wait outside of the hotel. They assured themselves to


    teach Theresa a lesson she


    will regret for life.


    The General Inspector of police who was also watching had sent his men to arrest Theresa immediately


    and keep the ce in


    order cause he was sure that the ce would be disorganized in no time.


    Broderick turned from the screen and looked at Theresa with an angry look. Sincerely, if not for Broderick


    that was still on stage, many people would have stormed the stage and beat the fucking hell out of


    Theresa. The people were angry.


    How can someone be so wicked to kill someone else? Just because of what? Whoever can kill a soul


    can burn down an entire


    city,’ this was the mindset of the people of NorthHill. Theresa was scared. Very scared. Nell’s leg was


    literally shivering, she was a grandma and didn’t have much strength left in her to bear all these. Edith


    knew that if her child leaves here alive, then God had only decided to save her. No one could make a


    move yet cause of the presence of the most powerful man in North Hill, Broderick Alessandro. No matter


    how angry a dog is, it must respect and recognize it’s owner. “You killed Amy!” Broderick felt so much


    pain saying this but beyound that, he felt like burying Theresa alive. “This wasn’t the little girl I promised


    to marry when I was young. She was kind, lovely, amazing. She won’t even hurt a fly not to talk of killing


    someone else. How cruel are you? Amy is the mistress and you are the wife. Yet, you aren’t satisfied


    enough. You killed a mother of six kids,” Broderick shook his head as he said this. Broderick knew for


    sure that there was no way Theresa will leave here alive. She had angered the people of North Hill and


    she will let them handle her and treat her as they dim fit. Once Broderick turned from her, the crowds of


    people in the hall ran towards the stage like an hungry lion that was let loosed but Theresa quickly held


    onto Broderick’s leg making the angry crowd pause. The sirens of police car could be heard outside the


    hall already. Many were angry that the cops won’t let them serve Theresa a jungle justice. Broderick


    turned to Theresa and asked,” why are you holding onto me? Are you scared to face the consequences


    of your own


    2


    action?”


    *Please….please!” Theresa cried hard…”Please forgive me…I don’t want to die?” Theresa cried hard.


    She knows what was at stake


    if Broderick leaves her here.


    Fortunately for her, the cops were able to find their way up to the stage and immediately handcuffed her


    and lead her out.


    Broderick’s guard immediately stormed the ce and guarded Broderick out to where his cars were


    parked.


    Theresa became the headlines of every newspaperpany in NorthHill. Infact, those who posted the


    video on YouTube were getting traffic from all over the world. Numerous angryments were dropping


    every second on thement section of the youtube page While Broderick was being driven away to his


    house, a call came through on his phone and seeing that it was ‘Miss Cleo,’ he answered. He beleived


    she must have seen the news to,


    “Mr Broderick, I’m sorry for.”


    M


    He interrupted her,” good niddance to bad rubbish. Can youe over to my ce, please?”


    Did you not remember that I’m currently having a wedding with Mr. Michael?” Amy asked.


    Whereas, Amy was before her television, she had just finished watching the video she set up. She was


    eating her popcorn and


    laughing quietly victoriously. She wasn’t having any wedding with Michael neither, she was only teasing


    Broderick.


    “Send me the address of where the wedding is taking ce, I’lle,” Broderick said.


    “Sure.” Amy called out an address for him and hung the call upN?velDrama.Org owns all content.
