Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival by Jobet GraySon

Chapter Nine

Amber’S POV

On getting home, the first thing I did after getting rid of my clothes and taking a quick shower was get my laptop and prepare to write down a list of rules that Richard and I had to live by if we were going to live as a married couple.

The first rule I believe he had to follow was the no–touching rule. Although he didn’t seem like someone who was going to ever attempt to touch me inappropriately, I still needed to include that as one of the rules, because the last thing I wanted was to have any sort of relationship with a man.

A

Love and relationships were out of the books for me, and I’ve just concluded that after getting my

revenge on Kayden and Marlene, I’ll be done with Richard and men forever.

A few other rules that came to mind included Richard and I living our lives separately, without one

person interfering in the other’s life, except, of course, if it would ruin the basics of our false

marriage.

I also didn’t want him to ever act like he had any right over me or act as my husband when we were

alone. We shouldn’t even share the same room, much less the same bed, and last but not least, he

should never fall in love with me.

I knew the last rule was weird because it was obvious that he only saw me as a tool, but just to be

sure, I decided to include it on the list, just to let him know that I had no interest in ever having a relationship that exceeded business with him.

I was about to send the few rules that I had managed to put down to him when I suddenly stopped

myself and closed my laptop.

I decided that sending it now wasn’t the right timing, and I also wanted to give myself more time just in case some other things would end up coming to mind.

I tiredly went back to my room, picked up my phone, and decided to lazily scroll around until I got tired enough and eventually fell asleep.

Not so much to my surprise, the first thing I saw as soon as I opened up my favorite blog was several articles that kept writing about Kayden and Marlene’s honeymoon trip, including how Kayden was
