SWNOVELS Chapter 20
Amy looked at the door of the room the children were and sighed, should she secretly run away at night? Her plan to run away th
e first time was jeopardized by Callan, perhaps, it could work out this time. She walked inside the room and sat by a side quietly,
Nell who was now done arranging the kid‘s cloth in the wardrobe, she walked over to her and said,” I left you because Broderick
gestured for me to leave, hope you understand?” “Sure,” Amy said and Nell placed her hand on her shoulder and
said,” I‘ll leave the room so can you spend time with your children.” “Thank you,” Amy smiled faintly and watched as Nell walked
out. Once the children saw that Nell walked out of the room, they ran towards Amy and swarmed around her. Amy was so happy
to be around her kids again. She could see the joy and happines on the children‘s face.
“Mum, we missed you,” Elijah spoke up. “So much, mum...” “We miss you,
mum,” the children said one after the other as they leaned on several parts of her body. Amy remembered how she almost die a
couple of minutes ago
in the hands of Broderick and the thought that she may never had seen her children if she had died scared her. She really need t
o escape this place. If she knew that the random gigolo she picked to have sex with years back was the most powerful man in N
orthHill, she would never had done that even in her weirdest dream. But it‘s even more strange that she kept colliding with him in
recent times. “I‘m so sorry that mama left you, I had an emergency at work and quickly travelled for
it, but I‘m back now,” she said, feeling so much comfort around her children. All of
them were very happy and then Moses spoke,” when do we stop calling Nell, mother and stop calling you, aunt?” Before Amy co
uld respond, Elisha added, “I don‘t really like to stay with Nell. I like to stay with you.” “Same here, mum,” Angel said. “Mum, let‘s
keep living together like we used to... We don‘t want to live with Nell anymore,” Queen added. “Is Nell unfair to you?” Amy asked
, wondering if Nell had done something wrong to her children when she was
absent that made them not to be willing to stay with her anymore. The children shook their head in response, it wasn‘t like they di
dn‘t like Nell, it was just that they were more comfortable with Amy mothering them than Nell. Amy sighed and said,” okay, we will
go back to our house today.” “Why?” Debby asked in her tiny voice before others could even speak. “Because...” Amy didn‘t kno
w what she can say that can make sense to her kids as regarding why
they had to leave. “I will explain to you all when we get home, okay?” She said and the children nodded.
He found her She played with them in the room for a couple of hours and when it was evening, she walked out of the room with h
er kids. was
When they got to the large living room, Nell, who was at the dinning, drinking tea sighted the mother and her
six kids and stood ,” Amy, where to?” “I need to leave, mother, I‘m sorry, please tell second mother that I
have left,” she said. Eventually, she has to put her happiness first before that of anyone. Nell nodded only and watched as Amy
walked out of the kids, her calm face turned into a frowned one at once and she walked very swiftly
to Broderick‘s room. She was almost planting a knock on the door when the door gave way. Broderick was at that
time about to walk over to his home office but he was surprised to see his godmother standing before his room. “Mother, is anythi
ng wrong?” He asked, seeing the look of urgency on her face. “Amy is trying to get away with my kids, I firstly wanted to confront
her but if I do, she may form a
lie and give the kids back to me but I‘m sure she may leave with them again someday, that is why I have decided to inform you s
o you can stop and warn her to avoid my kids and stop trying to run away with them. Nell said. “That woman tried to steal your si
x kids away from you?” Broderick asked angrily, his fist clenching very tightly, “Don‘t worry, mother. I‘ll
get the kids back to you. It‘s impossible for her to escape NorthHill without my permission. But not only will I warn her not to try s
uch anymore, I‘ll give her the punishment a kidnapper deserve.” He said and placed his hand gently on Nell‘s shoulder after
which he walked out With a deep
frown on his face, he walked out of the mansion but didn‘t see Amy and the kids. He placed a call across to
his personal assistant at once and said,” Brett, that woman who is my wife tried to escape with my godmother‘s six kids, find her,
when you do, inform me immediately.” “On it, sir,” Brett said after which he hung the call. The bus that Amy took with the six kids f
r Alessandro‘s mansion packed before her old house, she helped the six kids stepped down after which she did also, in a
jiffy, they were all inside the room. But Amy‘s heart was not at peace, Broderick was the most powerful man in North Hill and eve
n if she was a needle, he would most definitely find her. She tried to hide her look of anxiety from the kids and neither of them su
spect, she arranged food for them, cracked joked with them and help them to sleep. She didn‘t know how to inform them that the
y were going back to Southhill, it‘s necessary that she goes back to there cause that‘s the only way she
can avoid Broderick. Although her children will not get access to better education, but at least she would be able to be with them
peacefully without fear of Broderick ever finding out that the kids were his.
Cause if Broderick finds
out, then she‘s doomed. A cold man like him will only take the children away from her. She won‘t even tell the kids a thing, she w
ould explain to them when
they get to Southhi. She booked a ticket for a train online. The train was to leave by 6AM so she knew she had to wake very earl
y and leave with the
kids. It was even good that the train was leaving early, that way, even if Broderick was searching for her, he would not find her. Ar
ound 5AM the following morning, she woke the kids up, it was a whole lot of struggle for them to be fully awake cause many of th
em still feels sleepy. They were not found of walking this early. The kids were asking why she had wake them up to bath but she t
old them she would explain when
He found her they get to their destination, after ensuring that the kids took their bath, she went ahead and get dressed too. They
all walked out of the house. There were scanty people moving across the street and that was a relief for her. In a jiffy, Amy and h
er six children were at the train station. After the formalities of presenting her ticket and that of the kids,
they all walked inside and sat. Amy felt bad for waking the kids early but she assured herself that once they get to the city, she w
ould let them to get a proper sleep. The boys were seated on the seats before her while Angel, Queen and Debby were seated ri
ght beside her. Angel and Queen were resting their heads on her shoulder as they
were still sleepy but Debby sat upright. She was wondering why they had to leave early this
morning and was quiet sad that she may not get to see Broderick anymore. She loved the way
Broderick treated her when her and her brothers and sisters went to Broderick‘s office. “Mummy, see!” She smiled as she pointed
to Broderick who had just stepped inside the train. There was an intimidating aura that
his presence brings. The few people that had occupied the train were shocked to see the most powerful man in NorthHill
standing in the train. Some immediately had their head lowered while some were stealing glances at him. But
overall, everyone inside the bus were wondering what Broderick was doing here.
If Broderick were to travel outside of NorthHill,
he won‘t use a public train for any reason. Debby stood from her seat and ran to him, screaming,” dad!” Although Broderick
had a murderous look on when he walked inside the train, as soon as he saw Debby approaching him, his face
loosened and he arched his brow a little to welcome the little one in
his hand. Many people inside the bus brought their phone at once and began to take pictures and videos of the scenerio, everyon
were not so much similarities between the duo, anyone who looks closely will see the sound similarities that
exist between the father and daughter. “Don‘t stand,” Amy warned the other kids who wanted to also do what Debby
did and they sat back at Amy‘s command. Amy wondered why Debby was calling Broderick, ‘dad.‘ Did she finds
out already? Or did Nell tell her? Brett walked in and ordered for everyone inside the car to step down and immediately, everyone
with her to where Amy and the other five kids sat. Amy didn‘t expect that he would find her so soon. Could it be that it
was when he didn‘t see her this night that he assumed that she had ran away,
