Chapter Seventy One

Amber’s POV.

I lay there, my face buried in my pillow, the weight of embarrassment consuming me. I couldn’t believe I had made such a fool of myself in front of Richard. The memory of my impulsive action replayed in my mind like a never–ending loop, intensified by my raging self–consciousness.

Regret swept over me, twisting my stomach into knots. How could I have let my feelings get the better of me? The thought of facing Richard now, after my humiliating display of vulnerability and my feeble attempts to brush it off as a joke, filled me with a wave of shame.

As I kicked my feet in frustration, my mind raced, replaying the events of the previous night. I chastised myself for letting my guard down so easily and for allowing my desires to blur the line between our contract and something more. I had broken a rule, and I regretted it so much.

“Why did I do that? What was I thinking?” I muttered to myself, my voice muffled by the duvet. The weight of my mistakes felt crushing, and the desire to disappear, to hide from Richard and the world. grew stronger by the second.

Last night, after we had bid each other goodnight and retreated to our separate rooms, my mind was suddenly filled with a strange desire–a desire to remain beside Richard instead of sleeping by myself. I had convinced myself that I couldn’t bear another night spent alone, so I made the impulsive decision to return to Richard’s door, knocking like a fool and then audaciously proposing

that we sleep together.

Of course, I had meant my words literally, wanting only to sleep in the same bed, but that wasn’t how

Richard had taken it.

The memory of Richard’s incredulous stare haunted my thoughts–the confusion and concern that etcl deeply into his features. I cringed at the recollection, humiliated by my own actions. How had I thought that such a request would be anything but absurd?

Richard had questioned me; his words were filled with disbelief and a tinge of worry. I remembered that the first thing he had done was ask me if I was sober, reminding me that I had a few glasses of champagne before we left the party. My cheeks flushed with embarrassment at the implication, and m actions suddenly seemed even more foolish.

And now, it was the beginning of a new day, but the embarrassment still clung to me. As I lay in bed.

I couldn’t help but replay the scene over and over again, the memory carving deeper into my

consciousness.

“I’m such a fool” I whispered to myself, my voice tinged with self–loathing. “How could I have been

in to the embarrassment was not an option–I had far too much to do. Slowly, I peeled myself out of

the comfort of my bed and made my way towards the bathroom, desperate to freshen up and regain s

semblance of composure.

Stepping out of the bathroom, my eyes fell on my phone resting on the bedside table. A hint of curiosity tugged at my thoughts, prompting me to check if the tabloids had seized on the events of last night.

With a mix of curiosity and amusement, I clicked on a few news headlines, bracing myself

for the inevitable.

“Amber Black, now Amber Romero, cheated on her ex–husband with his rivat she marries his rival after

divorce.

*Richard Romero has an affair with Rival’s wife; he marries her after they’re caught”

“Are Richard Romero and his new wife, Amber Grey, really Married? Or could it be a charade to Spite

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the absurdity of it all. The tabloids had certainly lived

up to their reputation, turning the events of my life into scandalous headlines. It was clear to me that Kayden, in his desperation and cunning, was behind each and every one of these articles. But what I couldn’t fathom was why he, as the one guilty of infidelity, would risk retaliating against me

in such a reckless manner.

so

The thought crossed my mind that if it were someone as foolish as Marlene behind these news stories, it would be easier to dismiss them as simple–minded revenge. But the fact that Kayden was also a part of such stupid tactics left me questioning his sanity. Surely he knew the potential backlash that could occur from exposing himself like this, or was petty revenge clouding his judgment entirely?

It was time to pay a visit to an old friend, someone with whom I was going to enjoy watching her life be ruined. I literally had a list of how I wanted my revenge to be arranged, and Alison, being the easiest prey, was first on my list.

With a strong sense of excitement, I quickly got dressed and made my way downstairs.

As I descended the staircase, my eyes landed on Richard, already prepared to leave the house. Suppressing the embarrassment from the events of the previous night, I mustered up the courage to approach him.

“Richard, where are you headed?” I asked.

He turned to face me, his expression one of confusion. “Oh, I have something to take care of today.”

he replied. “Why? Is there something you need?”

A small smile tugged at the corners of my lips. “Can you cancel your plans?” I asked. “Today is Alison‘ s birthday, remember? And her surprise gift is scheduled to be delivered. I don’t want to miss the opportunity to witness her downfall, but I don’t want to enjoy it by myself.”

Richard furrowed his brows, clearly taken aback by my request. “Wait, you already called the Colonel? And he agreed to help you?” he questioned, his voice tinged with surprise.

I nodded, a wicked grin spreading across my face. “Yes, Richard. It didn’t even take a lot of

convincing. Like you said, the man does have a strange likeness for weirdos like me, so when I told him I wanted to get revenge on her for what she did, he immediately gave me one of his people to contact for help,” I explained.

“And today, I won’t let Alison escape the consequences of her actions. I’m certain the police are on

their way as we speak, ready to apprehend her. And I have no intention of missing out on the satisfaction of seeing her being cuffed and dragged away like the criminal she is,” I added, already

loving, the thought of seeing her look hopeless and afraid.
