Chapter Seventy One

Amber’s POV.

I lay there, my face buried in my pillow, the weight of embarrassment consuming me. I couldn’t believe I had made such a fool of myself in front of Richard. The memory of my impulsive action replayed in my mind like a never–ending loop, intensified by my raging self–consciousness.

Richard had questioned me; his words were filled with disbelief and a tinge of worry. I remembered that the first thing he had done was ask me if I was sober, reminding me that I had a few glasses of champagne before we left the party. My cheeks flushed with embarrassment at the implication, and m actions suddenly seemed even more foolish.
