Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival

Third Person POV.

Richard, who had been busying himself in the kitchen, preparing dinner for himself and Amber, moved around with ease as he prepared everything according to how Amber had said she liked it.

Tonight was meant to be a peaceful evening, a quiet moment shared with Amber after what had been rather tiring day.

As he stirred a bubbling pot on the stove, Richard’s thoughts drifted to Amber, assuming she was at the hospital visiting Antoinette as planned. However, a sudden vibration in his pocket shattered his reverie, the familiar chime of his phone’s ringtone piercing the quietness of the kitchen.

Frowning in confusion at the unexpected interruption, Richard retrieved his phone, noting the caller ID that read ‘Chief Security–Main Gate‘

Puzzlement furrowed his brow as he accepted the call, bringing the device to his ear. “What’s the matter, Mike? Why are you calling me at this hour?” Richard’s tone held a note of irritation, as the last thing he wanted was to deal with any issues that’d interrupt his dinner plans with Amber.

The voice on the other end crackled with tension as the chief of security relayed the distressing news. “Sir, there’s a serious situation happening at the gate. Mrs. Romero and some strange woman are having a heated argument, and it’s escalating rapidly. You need to come down here immediately.”

The urgency in Mike’s voice confused Richard, and he struggled to comprehend how and why Amber would be in a heated argument with anyone.

Confusion mingled with a growing sense of alarm as Richard demanded further details, a furrow of concern deepening on his brow. “Who is the other woman? What is going on?”

The chief of security’s response sent a wave of disbelief crashing over Richard as he processed the shocking revelation. “I don’t know who she is, sir. She seems to be someone your wife knows quite well, and she’s… causing a scene, sir.”

With a frustrated sigh, Richard placed the call on hold, his mind racing with a flurry of thoughts. Fingers quickly navigating through his phone, he accessed the security camera feed of the gate. his eyes widening in disbelief at the scene that was unfolding on his screen. There stood Amber, her face

illuminated by the glow of the streetlights, facing off against none other than Marlene, whose deranged presence sent a shiver down Richard’s spine.

Reconnecting the call with Mike, Richard’s voice was steely with resolve as he issued swift instructions. “Call the police immediately and get that woman away from my wife. Make sure she’s restrained until I arrive. I’m on my way.”

The urgency in his tone brooked no argument, and he felt a surge of anger at Marlene’s audacity to come to his house and try to cause a scene with his wife.

With a swift movement, Richard discarded the apron he wore, the clatter of metal against marble echoing through the kitchen. Not wasting any time, he’d walk out of the kitchen, grab the nearest car keys, and immediately leave the house to drive down to the gate.

The sting of Marlene’s slap still lingered on Amber’s cheek as she stood face–to–face with her deranged sister. She was both furious and irritated, furious at Marlene’s audacity and irritated at the dirty word Marlene had just thrown at her.

The security guards had tried coming out to interfere, but she was quick to stop them, warning them not to get involved or they’d be fired. She’d then turn her attention back to Marlene, her rage evident.

“How dare you come here and accuse me of such a despicable crime, Marlene? How could you shamelessly throw such accusations at me? Do you think I’m anything like you?” Amber’s voice quivered with anger.

Marlene’s response was a cold scoff; her lips curled in a derisive sneer as she leveled a chilling gaze at Amber. “Oh, spare me your false innocence, Amber. You know exactly who you are. A murdere just like me.”

The words dripped with venom, causing Amber’s confusion and cluelessness to deepen.

Amber recoiled, disbelief etched across her features. “A murderer? What are you talking about. Marlene? What gives you the right to even say such a thing?”

Marlene’s laughter was a chilling echo in the night as she hissed her next accusation, a venomous gleam in her eyes. “Don’t play the innocent fool with me. Amber. You know what you did. You killed m unborn child just to exact revenge on me, didn’t you? Just like I took away yours with Kayden?”

The shock that swept across Amber’s features was palpable, a wave of disbelief crashing over her at the sound of Marlene’s careless confusion. She didn’t want to believe what she had just heard,

believing that there was a possibility that she was just hearing things.

“What are you talking about, Marlene? What revenge are you yapping about, and what’s about you taking away my child? What’s that supposed to mean?” she questioned, a voice coming out a lot more shaky

than she wanted it to.

With a sinister and almost psychotic laugh, Marlene would respond, wanting nothing more than to hurt and break Amber just as much as she was hurt and broken. “You’re quite good at pretending, Amber. But like I just said, it was me, dear sister. I was the one who made sure you lost that child, just like

you’ve made sure I’ve lost mine. Are you finally happy now, knowing that you got your revenge? We’r

both equal now, aren’t we?”

Amber’s eyes widened in a mixture of shock and horror, the pieces of the puzzle falling into place with chilling certainty. She had always wondered how she suddenly lost her baby from one day to the next when she hadn’t been feeling any sort of pain or irregularities. And with Marlene admitting that

she was responsible for making her lose her child, everything started to make more sense to her.

Her hands trembled with a mixture of shock and fury as she stood before Marlene, her heart heavy with pain. In a shaky voice filled with raw emotion, she confronted the psychopath she couldn’t believe shared the same blood with her, her words laced with disbelief and anger. “Do you realize what you did to me, Marlene? How could you… how could you do such a thing?”

Marlene’s response was a chilling sneer, her features twisted into a mask of twisted satisfaction as she reveled in the pain she could see on Amber’s face. “Oh, Amber. It was quite simple. I just had to make sure you wouldn’t use that stupid baby to tie Kayden down and stop him from leaving you. So, I took care of it myself, like the kind auntie that I am.”

Her words dripped with malice, a twisted pride seeping through her gleaming eyes as she recounted her heinous act with a sickening glee.

The revelation struck Amber like a physical blow, the breath stolen from her lungs as Marlene callously boasted of her wicked act.

A wicked laugh bubbled from Marlene’s lips, a chilling sound that echoed through the night. “I gave you that drink, Amber. The drink that would ensure that the baby you carried would never see the light of day. And you, foolishly trusting me, drank it all. How deliciously naive you were, big

sis.”

The twisted satisfaction in Marlene’s voice sent a shiver down Amber’s spine–a realization of the

depths of wickedness that lurked in her sister’s heart.

The shock of Marlene’s confession left Amber momentarily stunned, her world spinning on its axis as the truth of her loss unfolded before her. But amid her turmoil, a white–hot rage ignited in her

storm of fury that burned with an intensity that threatened to consume her.

Without warning, she lunged towards Marlene, her hands shooting out to seize the bitch who had

orchestrated her deepest pain. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

With a furious hiss tearing from her throat, Amber’s fingers closed around Marlene’s throat, the desperate grasp of a woman driven to the brink of sanity by the weight of her rage. She squeezed with

force born of primal rage, yelling in a voice that echoed through the night. “You… you did this

to me. You not only took my child, but you took away my future. You made me into someone who can have children, you crazy bitch! How dare you, Marlene? How dare you do this to me?”

Marlene’s eyes widened in a mix of shock and fear as Amber’s hands tightened around her neck, the air stolen from her lungs in a choking gasp of desperation.

As Amber’s rage consumed her, her world narrowed to a singular focus–sucking the life out of Marlene And it was in that moment of searing emotion that Richard ran outside, his heart pounding in his

chest as he witnessed the scene unfolding in front of him.

Third Person POV.

Richard rushed to Amber’s side, immediately grabbing her from behind. As he pulled Amber away from Marlene, he could feel Amber struggling against his grip, with her hands still tightly wrapped around y wrapped around

Marlene’s neck, until he finally managed to pull her away completely.

Her eyes blazed with an intensity born of fury and pain, and her voice was loud and raw with anger as

she struggled against his firm hold. “Let me go, Richard! I need to make her pay for what she did.

She took everything from me, and she deserves to pay with her life!”

Richard’s grip tightened around her. “I know you’re upset, babe, but I can’t let you do what you have

in mind. She’s not worth it. We’ll handle this in a much different way, I promise, but not like

this.

He shot a quick look towards the security guards stationed nearby, a silent command passing betweer them as they quickly moved to restrain Marlene.

With swift precision, the guards immobilized Marlene, gripping her hands behind her back as she thrashed and screamed, a wild look in her eyes. Her defiance was palpable as she glared at Richard, her voice dripping with venom. “Let go of me! This is absurd! You can’t do this to me!”

Richard’s jaw clenched, his eyes cold with resolve, as he met Marlene’s gaze. “You’re trespassing on my property, Mrs. Black, and you assaulted my wife. You shouldn’t have done that without expecting repercussions.”

“You met her strangling me, didn’t you? Your wife tried to kill me! She assaulted me!” she yelled.

Amber, seething with unbridled rage, shot Marlene a deadly glare as she spat out her next words through gritted teeth. “You better prepare for the worst, you stupid bitch. I was having mercy on you because you had a baby on the way, but now that you’re no longer pregnant, I’ll let you know what it means to experience hell on earth. You have no idea what’s coming for you. You just wait and see.”

Marlene’s lips curled into a twisted smile, a sick amusement dancing in her eyes as she taunted Amber. “Oh, so now you’re admitting you killed my baby, aren’t you? How tragic, Amber. You claim to hate me so much, but at the end of the day, you’re not that different from me. You’re a murderer, just like I am.”
