Richard stared at Amber with a worried look on his face. He could tell that she was extremely

agitated at the moment, and it made him wonder what Kayden and her sister could have said to her to

rile her up so much.

“Listen, Amber, I can’t tell you that I understand what you’re going through right now or how you’re

feeling, but if there is one thing I can assure you of, it’s that your anger towards Kayden is

something I can relate to, to an extent,” he started.

He knew that what Amber was feeling now was an emotion that he could not relate to, and he could also

sense that she was holding back from expressing her feelings in front of him, most likely because she

didn’t trust him.

“Now, as much as I love that you agreed to my proposal, I do think that it is essential for both of us to talk things through before getting into it,” he said, his tone serious. “As much as I don’t

want to scare you, I have to tell you that I’m a pretty strict guy, and I never like to cross lines

that shouldn’t be crossed. So, for both of us to get through this, we need to make clear lines that

neither of us is allowed to cross, and until we get those boundaries out of the way, there will be no

wedding.”
