Chapter 110

Third Person POV.

Amber strode into Richard’s office, a mischievous glint in her eyes as she called out, “Surprise!” Her smile was infectious as she greeted him, catching him off guard with her unexpected visit.

Richard’s surprise was palpable as he took in her presence, a hint of delight appearing on his face at the sight of her.

With a warm smile, she gracefully seated herself at his table, her gaze unwavering as he stood up from his seat to stand in front of her, leaning casually against the table. “I didn’t expect you to visit, babe. You didn’t even tell me you were coming.” he remarked. It was a rare occasion for Amber to visit him at work, especially without prior notice.

Amber chuckled softly at Richard’s words, her eyes glinting with satisfaction that stemmed from how excited she was deep down. “I thought I’d drop by to say hello since I was nearby,” she explained, her voice light and playful.

“How come you were nearby?” Richard inquired, his curiosity piqued.

She shifted in her seat before responding, “I met with Helena earlier to give her what you got for me earlier. Richard’s expression softened, with a hint of confusion and apprehension coloring his features as he processed her words.

He didn’t think that Amber would quickly meet up with Helena, especially since he had thought that Amber might end up rethinking her decision and changing what she had in mind for the time being.

“You’re quicker than I expected,” he remarked with a faint smile.

Amber’s demeanor shifted slightly, a sense of urgency flickering in her eyes. “I need to be fast now. Richard. I can’t afford any more surprises by being slow.”

She went on to mention her conversation with her cop friend, adding that she had mentioned Antoinette’s assault and also the possibility of Anthony’s drug use to him.

“I gave him the video of Anthony assaulting Antoinette, but I made sure to give him a blurred video for now.” She then turned to Richard, her gaze piercing. “Have you contacted the reporters, as we

discussed?” she asked, her words laden with expectation and a touch of urgency.

He nodded. “Yes, just as you asked. I submitted the video of Anthony’s attack on Antoinette,” he confirmed, his tone resolute. “I’ve also submitted the security footage of Marlene’s actions, as you directed. I only sent in the part where she ran into your car on purpose and then hit you after.”

Amber smiled in satisfaction. “And you didn’t send it with audio, right? I don’t want the world to know what we talk about just yet,” she mentioned.

“Don’t worry, Amber. I did everything the right way, just like you asked. The reporters will have the article published tomorrow, and it’ll be a whole lot of chaos.”

“Thank you for your help. I can’t wait for tomorrow,” she expressed, her voice soft.

Richard simply nodded in response, a contemplative expression crossing his features as he fell into a moment of introspection.
