Chapter Fifty Five

Amber’s POV

Sitting at a secluded table in the corner of a small restaurant, I anxiously tapped my fingers

against the smooth surface, my gaze fixated on the entrance.

After my emotional conversation with Richard, I knew it was time to take control of things, and get

myself together. My number goal was to seek revenge on Kayden and Marlene, but I didn’t want to

solely depend on Richard to come up with our next line of action.

Even though we were only married for two years, there was a lot I knew about Kayden and his family,

so I intended on doing things my way from now. And the first step to getting what I wanted was to

find my people, individuals who could serve as my loyal eyes and ears, reporting back every little

detail about their actions and plans.

I had reached out to Helena, the head servant in Kayden’s home, earlier in the day and requested a

meeting. She was one of the servants there who I knew cared about me, and might still have some sort

of loyalty toward me since I had been nice to her while I was married to Kayden.

To my relief, she had been more than willing to see me. Now, as I waited for her arrival, my mind

raced with possibilities. I wondered how she was going to react to my request and I was also

anticipating what she might reveal to me, should she decide to help me.

Minutes stretched into eternity, but finally, Helena’s figure appeared in the doorway. She hurried

over, a broad smile stretching across her face as she curtly bowed to me. “Miss Amber,” she greeted

warmly. “I’ve missed you so much. It’s been too long. How have you been?”

I rose from my seat, mirroring her smile, and embraced her tightly. “Helena, it’s good to see you,” I

replied, my voice genuine. “And I’ve missed you too.”

Finally settling into our respective chairs, Helena’s smile faltered for a moment as she offered an

apology. “I’m really sorry, Miss Amber, for not reaching out to you after your divorce from Mr.
