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

understanding. “That makes sense, I guess. But I don’t think showing my face now is the right timing. I mean, I only just divorced Kayden, and since you two are kind of rivals, the public could end up speculating that I was having an affair with you while I was still married to Kayden,”
