Amber listened silently to her father as he began to attempt to justify himself. “Amber, the thing
that happened with Mary isn’t something I can easily explain. It’s all very complicated,” he said.
His response struck a nerve in her, and she could feel the anger bubbling at the mention of Mary’s
name. “I’m still curious, Dad. Go ahead and explain this
complicated story and tell me how it all
started. I’m sure it was all just a big mistake, right?” she retorted, her tone laced with sarcasm.
Martin shifted uncomfortably in his seat, hesitating for a moment before continuing. “Yes, Amber, it
was a mistake. I know you probably won’t believe me, but things with Mary escalated so quickly, and I
hardly even remember how it all began. A few weeks after… something happened between us. She car to me and told me she was pregnant. She said I was the father, and I was left with no other choice
but to marry her,” he admitted, his voice filled with shame and regret.
Amber’s eyes rolled involuntarily at his words, a wave of disbelief washing over her. “So, what you’re telling me is that you let yourself be seduced by Mary less than two years after Mom passed away? Was it that hard to stay away from Mom’s old friend and keep yourself from getting in bed with her?” she questioned, her voice filled with disappointment.
Martin opened his mouth to respond, but Amber held up a hand, cutting him off before he could utter a
word. “Save it, Dad. Now that I think about it, I don’t need to hear your explanations. You made your choice, and now you have to live with the consequences of all your actions, no matter how praiseworthy you think they are,” she stated firmly, her gaze unwavering.
A heavy silence settled between them as Martin sighed, recognizing the futility of trying to defend
himself. “Amber, I know I have no right to ask for your understanding, but everything I did was to protect you and the rest of the family. I just tried my best to keep us safe,” he implored, his voice
tinged with desperation.
Amber scoffed, her expression hardening as she shook her head. “Stop lying to yourself, Dad. You’re not fooling anyone, least of all me,” she retorted, her voice filled with a sense of betrayal.
She leaned back in her seat, crossing her arms over her chest as she fixed her father with a piercing gaze. “Even if I could believe that you agreed to work for the Black family for Mom’s sake and to get revenge for her, I know for a fact that you ended up losing your way because of your greed, Dad. No excuses you make can justify what you did too. You handed me over to Kayden, knowing he was responsible for Mom’s death. You practically sold me out, putting me in a situation where I was
