Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival by Jobet GraySon

Chapter Forty Nine

Amber’s POV.

My entire world started to spin ten times faster as soon as Kayden mentioned to me that Richard was

also in the car when he hit my mother and killed her.

I found it hard to process his words at first until it hit me that not only did I marry the man who killed my mother, but I also ended up marrying the man who was an accomplice to the crime.

My heart fell to my stomach as the puzzle pieces started to fall in place and my legs started to

wobble to the point where I almost fell, but Richard’s hands quickly grabbed me. As soon as I felt

his touch on my skin, I flinched, immediately throwing his hands away from mine.

I stared back at him, secretly waiting for him to deny Kayden’s words, argue with him, and just say

something to prove that Kayden was only trying to mess with me, but he said nothing.

He said nothing, and the guilt in his eyes was enough to tell me that Kayden wasn’t lying. When I

couldn’t contain my anger anymore, I stormed out of the restaurant, trying to walk straight despite

the fact that my tears had blurred my eyes, and I didn’t even know what to do or where to go.

I could feel Richard coming after me, so I tried to pick up my pace and get away from him as quickly

as I could. When I realized that I couldn’t outrun him, I halted in my tracks and turned to look at

him with the most disgusted frown that my face could muster.

“Stay away from me, Richard!” I warned him, hoping he’d just listen and get away from me.

“Listen, Amber, I know you’re most likely confused and annoyed right now, but I’m going to have to

beg you to calm down. Let’s just go home and we’ll talk this out, I beg you,” he said.

“Talk this out. What exactly are we going to talk about, Richard Romero? Are we going to talk about

how you’re the most despicable and miserable bastard to exist on earth? Will we be talking about how

you’re nothing but a liar and a murderer, or will it be about how you’re not any different from the man you supposedly hate?” I snapped.

“Amber, I know this seems a certain way, but I promise you, it’s not what you think. I’m not a

murderer, and I didn’t mean to lie to you,” Richard responded.
