Chapter Twenty Three
Third–person POV
Richard waited anxiously in his car outside Amber’s apartment building. They had agreed that he would pick her up so they could go together to meet his parents. He had called her the previous night to inform her of the meeting, and to his surprise, she agreed immediately, her voice filled with unexpected confidence as she assured him that he had nothing to worry about.
But Richard couldn’t shake off his nerves. There was a lot at stake, and he didn’t want Amber to make any mistakes or say anything that might give away the fact that their marriage was a contract, a business arrangement. He wanted her to blend in seamlessly to win his parents‘ trust and approval.
After what felt like an eternity, he finally caught sight of Amber making her way down from her apartment. The sight of her took his breath away. She looked completely different from what he was accustomed to seeing.
Today, she had dressed elegantly, exuding a sense of sophistication that he hadn’t witnessed before, and he couldn’t tear his eyes away from her, studying every detail, from the way she carried herself to the grace with which she moved.
Amber, noticing his intense gaze, arched an eyebrow and asked, “Is there something wrong with how I’m dressed? Did I miss the memo on the dress code?”
Richard quickly composed himself, realizing that he might have been staring for too long. “No, no, nothing’s wrong at all. I’m just… surprised. You look absolutely beautiful, Amber.”
She scoffed, a hint of amusement touching her eyes. “Well, Richard, just because you’ve only seen me in casual fits or like a black widow doesn’t mean I can’t pull off looking stunning every now and
then.”
A smile tugged at Richard’s lips, and he shook his head. “No, of course not. I just… I didn’t expect this, that’s all.”
Amber smirked and threw him a playful look. “Careful now, Richard. Don’t go falling for me just because I’ve glammed up. We still have a contract to uphold, remember?”
Richard chuckled, a knowing t
