“Stop the car for a while, Richard,” I requested, not confident that I could respond the way I wanted to if the car was in motion.

Thankfully, he didn’t seem to have a problem with my request, as he quickly drove into a corner and parked the car.

“Do you have an answer?” he asked.

“Look at me.” I demanded, and he obeyed.

“Good,” I muttered. “Now listen, Richard, all my life, I have always been seen as the gullible and easy–to–please one because of how much I accepted and looked away from a lot of bullshit. I have been

herself. As for my family, I want them to lose everything they have and be sent into extreme poverty

and dejection. So to answer your question, there’s nothing I want more than to see those people ruined

me,” I said, making myself as clear as possible.

look at me, Amber. If I’m your stepping stone, so be it. I’ll be your stepping stone and you’ll be my weapon. I’ll use you to take down Kayden, and I want you to know that
