Amber’s heart raced as she and Richard remained seated in the dining room, the pen recorder now silent after playing the damning recording of Kayden’s sinister intentions. The weight of the truth felt heavy, overturning their once peaceful morning.
With a heavy sigh, Amber turned to Richard, her eyes betraying a mix of disbelief and anger. “So basically. Kayden is having Marlene drugged just like Marlene had gotten Alison to drug me,” she summarized, her voice laced with bitterness at the twisted turn of events unveiled in the recording.
Richard’s jaw tightened as he absorbed the revelation, a deep sigh escaping his lips. “I’m not shocked, to be honest. I always knew Kayden was capable of the worst. He wouldn’t be Kayden if he genuinely had compassion for anyone at all,” he hissed, his tone edged with resignation.
Amber nodded in grim agreement, her mind racing with the implications of the recording. “What do you think we should do with this recording?” she asked, uncertainty clouding her features as she searched for a way forward with the information she now had.
Richard’s gaze hardened. “Let’s see what’s on the SD card that Alison sent. It might shed more light on this mess, and perhaps, you can finally understand Alison’s reasons for sending you all this,” he suggested.
Leaving their untouched breakfast forgotten on the table, Amber and Richard made their way to Richard’s study, the discoveries heavy on their shoulders. With the letter, pen recorder, and mysterious SD card in hand, they entered Richard’s office, the familiar surroundings offering a sense. of calm.
Richard inserted the SD card into a USB drive, the soft whir of the computer filling the room as he accessed the files within. The screen flickered to life, revealing a series of videos that held the promise of further revelations to come.
As the videos played out before them, a chilling video of consultations and plotting between Alison and Marlene unfolded on the screen. Amber’s breath caught in her throat as she watched, her eyes widening in realization at the depth of betrayal and deception that had unfolded in her life.
“Alison left behind evidence on Kayden and Marlene and probably sent it to me because she wants me to

help her get rid of them,” Amber murmured, her voice heavy with the slight excitement of the incriminating proof they now held in their hands.
Richard’s expression darkened as he absorbed the implications of the videos, his mind whirling with the possibilities they had. “What do you suggest we do with both of them?” he asked, his voice low.
Amber sat across from Richard in his office, and they both felt a huge burden that stemmed from what they had just found out. As they deliberated on their next course of action, Amber’s mind raced with the possibilities of what to do with the incriminating recordings and videos that now lay at her feet.
“I’m not entirely sure what we should do next, Richard,” Amber began, her voice heavy with uncertainty “But the only thing that comes to mind right now is sending the recordings to Marlene. I’m really thinking of sending everything to her.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Richard’s brow furrowed in confusion at her suggestion, his expression a mirror of his perplexed thoughts. “Why would we send them to Marlene of all people?” he questioned, the confusion evident in his voice.
Amber’s gaze held a glint of seriousness as she explained her plan; her words were measured and filled with intent. “I don’t want to send the recordings and videos just yet. I think we should make copies first, and then I will consult with Helena to find out the right time to send them,” she outlined.
Seeing the confusion still lingering in Richard’s eyes, Amber elaborated further on her plan. “Since my plan to drive Marlene crazy is already in motion, and Kayden is indirectly helping me, I want to wait until the effects of my plan start to take hold even more. We both know that Marlene will lose her mind if she hears that recording, and seeing her own videos as well will likely trigger a panic attack,” she explained, a glint of steel in her gaze as she laid out her meticulous strategy.
Richard nodded in understanding, the pieces of the puzzle slowly falling into place as he grasped the patterns of Amber’s plan. “That does make sense,” he conceded, a note of approval in his voice as he processed the calculated approach Amber had devised.
After a moment of contemplation, Richard turned to Amber, his gaze steady as he sought confirmation. “Is that all you have planned?” he inquired, curiosity lacing his words as he awaited her next move.
Amber let out a heavy sigh, her thoughts already spinning with further avenues of action to pursue “I also want to look into Alison’s death,” she revealed, her voice tinged with a mix of determination

and concern. “I may hate her, but I can’t ignore how Alison made it clear in her letter that she was
murdered. I want to make sure we uncover the truth behind her death, whether she was killed or if she
truly took her own life.”
“Amber, while you’re working on your plan, there is something else I need to deal with,” Richard
said, his voice tinged with urgency as he locked eyes with his wife.
Perplexed by his sudden shift in focus, Amber furrowed her brow and inquired, “What is it that you
need to take care of, Richard? Is there something else going on? Is your dad still in trouble?”
Richard’s features hardened as he deliberated his next words. “It’s nothing serious; I just need to
handle H once and for all,” he revealed, his voice laced with determination as he made his intentions
clear.
Intrigued by his cryptic declaration, Amber’s eyes widened in surprise. “H? Has he finally set something?” she questioned, her curiosity piqued by the sudden urgency in Richard’s tone.
“I can’t go into details right now, Amber. But I promise, I’ll tell you everything once it’s over,” Richard responded, his words cryptic as he withheld the extent of his plans from her.
Furrowing her brow in confusion, Amber pressed on. “Richard, you can’t just leave me in the dark. Tell me what you’re planning to do with him,” she urged, the concern evident in her eyes.
Richard let out a heavy sigh as he prepared to share the truth with Amber. “H mentioned something about Kayden having a subsidiary company where his illegal money flows through. It’s the money from his dealings with drugs and other illegal businesses,” he divulged.
Amber’s eyes furrowed in confusion. “Is that all?” she asked, realizing that Richard’s earlier
secrecy did not match his words.
With another sigh, Richard took a deep breath before delivering the final blow. “The person in charge of that company is your father. He’s the figurehead,” he revealed, the look on his face apologetic.
