It had been precisely twenty–four hours since the fateful moment when Amber’s father, Martin Grey,

was accused and subsequently arrested for his involvement in drug trafficking and money laundering.

The events that had transpired made Amber feel a little disappointed and saddened, but she steeled

herself, preparing to face her father for the first time since his incarceration. She had

orchestrated this chain of events, providing Detective Garcia with the evidence necessary to secure

her father’s arrest, fully aware of the repercussions that would follow.

As she made her way to the visitation room of the prison, Amber’s thoughts swirled with a mixture of

apprehension and determination. She already knew that her father was merely a figurehead in the

illicit dealings orchestrated by Kayden Black, the true mastermind behind the operation, and she was determined to prove this.

However, Martin’s stubbornness and strange loyalty to Kayden had left her with no choice but to take

drastic measures to retrieve the evidence she needed. If her father refused to comply with her demands

she was prepared to let him face the consequences of his actions, knowing full well that he had willingly aided Kayden’s nefarious businesses.

On entering the visitation room, Amber settled into a chair, her gaze fixed on the door as she

awaited her father’s arrival. Martin had been swiftly incarcerated without the possibility of bail,

thanks to Richard’s connections with the judge, who had ensured that Martin remained behind bars

until his trial.

The evidence against the company was indisputable, leaving Martin with little recourse unless he

could provide evidence to implicate Kayden as the true architect of the illegal operations.

After what seemed like an eternity, the door creaked open, and Martin Grey was escorted into the

room, clad in the stark uniform of a prisoner. Despite expecting this sight, a pang of sadness tugged

at Amber’s heart as she took in her father’s disheveled appearance. She swallowed her emotions,
