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

Chapter Eighty Five (Family Reunion)

Third–Person POV.

Amber stood beside Richard in the elegantly furnished living room of Bianca’s lavish home, her gaze flickering between the familiar face of his sister and the man standing by her side, whom she assumed was Bianca’s husband. Bianca beamed at them, her eyes lighting up with affection as she gestured

towards the man beside her.

“Amber, this is my husband, Stefano Marino,” Bianca introduced with a smile, her hand resting on Stefano’s arm. Stefano returned the smile, his warm brown eyes crinkling at the corners as he

extended a hand towards Amber.

“It’s nice to finally meet you, Amber,” Stefano greeted her warmly. Amber’s lips curled into a soft smile as she shook his hand, a sense of warmth washing over her in response to his genuine welcome.

I mean, Junior and Stefano aside, Richard is my favorite person in the world, so Pietro just seemed like the perfect choice,” she responded.
