Chapter Thirty Six

Third Person POV.

Richard stared at Amber, annoyance etched across his face as he demanded an explanation for her unexpected presence in his room.

Amber stood frozen in place, shock pulsing through her veins, rendering her speechless. His irritated tone only fueled her discomfort, and she struggled to find her voice amidst the brewing tension in the room.

“Why… why are you staring at me like that?” Richard’s voice dripped with irritation. “Are you some kind of pervert?”

Amber snapped out of her daze, her wide eyes widening even further as panic coursed through her. “N–no I’m not a pervert,” she stammered, her words tumbling over one another in her haste. “I–I apologize

if I looked strange. That wasn’t my intention.”

His annoyance seemed to deepen, Richard’s brow furrowing as he regarded her carefully. “Then what are you doing in my room?” he asked.

Amber’s stuttered response spilled out, her words faltering as she struggled to compose herself. “I… I tried to call for a servant to help me with the zipper on my wedding dress, so I could take

it off. But no one answered, and… and I didn’t know what to do. You were the only person I could think of for help.” She finished her explanation.

Richard let out a long sigh, his impatience seemingly overshadowed by exasperation. “You could have at least waited outside my room,” he retorted. “You’ve infringed on my privacy by barging in without

permission.”

Amber’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she dropped her gaze to the floor. “I… I apologize,” she murmured. “You’re right. I shouldn’t have come in without asking.”

Richard’s stern expression softened slightly as he looked at her. “Is it only your wedding dress that

you need help with?”

Amber nodded meekly, unable to meet his gaze. “Yes, that’s all,” she replied.
