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

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

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.
