Chapter Twenty Nine

Amber’s POV.

My patience was wearing thin as I glanced at my watch for what felt like the hundredth time. Richard

was late, and I couldn’t help but feel a twinge of annoyance creeping in. We had agreed to meet at the bridal shop at 1 p.m. sharp, and yet, here I was, waiting for him since he was running late.

I didn’t like the idea of being in a bridal shop, which was why I didn’t want to waste any time here, but Richard just had to waste my time by running late.

Letting out a tired sigh, I shifted uncomfortably in the plush seating area, feeling the eyes of the

female staff drilling into me. They must have noticed my restlessness.

I ignored their staring and continued waiting quietly until one of the staff members approached met

with a hint of condescension in her voice.

“Are you sure you’re still interested in shopping. Miss Grey?” she asked, her voice dripping with false politeness. “Our bridal shop welcomes a lot of important clients, and one of them is on their way. If you’re unable to sort yourself out in the next ten minutes, I’m afraid I’ll have to escort

you out of the building.”

My frustration swelled, but I fought to keep it in check. I didn’t want to cause a scene, especially not before Richard arrived. I took a deep breath, reminding myself to stay calm.

“Look, I’m waiting for my fiance to arrive,” I replied, my voice steady but tinged with irritation. “We had planned to come here together. I will start shopping as soon as he arrives.”

Janice’s smile faltered for a moment, her gaze flickering with uncertainty. “Well, Miss Grey, time is limited. I suggest you make a decision quickly. We have an important client coming in, and they
