Chapter 36
It’s Not What You Think
The following day was weekend, since Amy wasn’t really busy, she thought she could go and pay Mike a visit and most importantly tell him that he would be reinstalled back and that she would stop working there. She would have called him on phone but she thought it would be more proper to pay him a visit. Plus, she doesn’t plan on visiting him again after today.
offered her a car either. Wondered what sort of his husband he is. This was someone who had more than fifteen latest and most expensive car in his garage. Once Amy got to where she could take a cab, she took one that transported her to Mike’s house. Once she got there, she allighted and walked to the entrance of the bongalow, she pressed on the doorbell and in a jiffy, the door opened. Mike furrowed his brow in shock when he saw her, “oh my gosh! Amy, I never expect that I would see you.” Amy was alll smiles and then he gestured for her to walk in after which she did, “please have your sit.” He said, very happy to see her. “Thank you,” Amy sat gently. “What would you like to take? I can get whatever you want for you,” he said. “Well… How would I tell you I’m okay? I kind of ate before I came. But thank you. If I feel hungry or need a drink before I leave, trust me, I’ll tell you,” Amy said. “It’s fine,” Mike smiled and sat, “so how are you doing?” “Well, I’m fine. I’ve got a good news for you, you will be employed again,” she said. “I was about to tell you that I was asked to resume work on Monday. You can’t imagine how happy I was when I found out, how did you know though?” “Well, I have someone as a

“Won’t the break up hurt you?” She asked. “It will hurt me so bad but I am getting prepared for it. I can’t tell her to choose me just to be on the bad side of her family. Maybe our relationship aren’t just meant to work out,” she said.
“Maybe, or is there something you could do for her family to accept you?” She asked and before Mike answered, a call came through to her phone. Seeing that the caller ID was Broderick Alessandro, her heart thumped loudly and she swallowed the saliva she didn’t even know was stored in her mouth. “Are you fine?” It was impossible for Mike not to notice her nervousness. “I am, a second please,” she requested.
Once she answered the call, Broderick’s voice came through,” in Mike’s house, huh? You have three minutes to return here.” The call came to an end before she could even say a word. “There is an emergency, I need to leave,” Amy said and stood immediately. “Oh! Please be fine, okay?” Mike asked and also stood. “Sure,” Amy answered as she walked swiftly to the door and opened it, “bye Mike.” “Bye, Amy,” Amy walked out and quickly prayed to get a cab, while waiting for a cab, she turned and saw that Mike had walked back inside. Mike must be wondering why she was suddenly this nervous, well, they won’t even get to meet again after this so he can think whatever he wants. She suddenly sighted a cab approaching her, before the cab could get to her, she felt a hand scratch her neck with it’s fingers and she winced in pain as she turned only to see the person running away. What? Who the hell is this? She didn’t have time to think of why a random stranger will scrub her neck and run away, she quickly got inside the cab and was being transported to Broderick’s house. Perhaps, the person who harassed her in the neck escaped a psychiatrist institution, it was absurd to her. She checked her wrist watch and saw that three minutes had passed, oops! She paid the cab driver immediately the cab arrived at Broderick’s mansion. She didn’t even know why she was nervous. It’s not as if Broderick will hurt her, or maybe she was just concerned about Mike, Broderick may actually hurt him. If he can fire him just for eating with her, what will he do then since she went to his house? Amy walked inside but couldn’t find anyone at the living room, also, the house seemed extraordinary quiet and that gave her goosebumps. She dialed his number but it was only dropping, she walked quickly to his room and saw that the door was slightly opened, she pushed the door open but didn’t see anyone in the room. A figure appeared behind her and suddenly slammed the door closed, making her heart almost jump off her throat. She turned and saw
