Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival

Chapter Twenty Seven Third Person POV. Amber stirred from her deep sleep, her entire body weak from exhaustion. The abrupt sound of the doorbell ringing pierced her ears, jolting her awake for a few fleeting moments. She groaned, burying her face in the pillow, hoping that whoever was at the door would simply give up and go away. She desperately wanted to find peace in the comforting embrace of sleep, and the fact that someone had cut short her sleep, made her extremely cranky.

As she approached the door, she spared a fleeting glance at the monitor to confirm who it was that had interrupted her precious sleep at such an ungodly hour. Her eyes widened in surprise and irritation when she saw Alison’s face displayed on the screen. Of all the people she had hoped to avoid, Alison was at the very top of the list. “Oh, for crying out loud,” Amber muttered in exasperation, her annoyance palpable in her voice. She had been dodging Alison’s attempts to reach out for days, not wanting to deal with her persistent nagging for her to seek therapy. Therapy was the last thing Amber wanted at the moment, and facing Alison’s relentless insistence would only add more stress to her already chaotic life. She also didn’t want to have anything to do with Alison, because she was starting to think that Alison didn’t understand her pain as well as she wanted, and her nonchalance toward her anger had made Amber believe that she wasn’t on her side. With a resigned sigh, Amber reluctantly opened the door, the weariness etched on her face transforming into forced politeness. “Alison,” she greeted curtly, her tone laced with frustration. “To what do I owe this early morning visit?”
