Amber's POV.
"Everything will be okay in the end if it's not okay it's not the end".
"Amber got up early. Her driver packed up the car, and they were headed to the country. She couldn't wait to see Karlie and just hug her. She wanted her to know she was there for her come what may. She was also happy because Karlie turned 20 years old this weekend, June 29.
She and Karlie's mom and sisters had been planning the biggest surprise party for her. She knew with all this mess, it's a good thing she didn't involve Anthony in any of the planning. He had already gotten her the most lavish gift. He had purchased their home that they would live in when they got married. He had a whole staff ready for her to design it into whatever she wanted it to be.
He had purchased a farmhouse exactly like Karlie's dream home that she had drawn as a little girl. Amber was so confused, what would become of that home now?
There was so much in the works for them, and Anthony ruined it by being dishonest and disrespectful. But who knows, maybe things will work out, but nothing is going to ruin her birthday. I'll make sure of it."
"They drove for hours. She slept in the car. This time she had her lady maid with her. She wanted to make sure she had all the help she needed to make sure Karlie's birthday turned out amazing.
More now than ever, her friend needed a win. She finally arrived at Karlie's house. 'Martin,' she said to her driver, 'I need you in town this time, okay?' 'Madam, so I'll have you stay in the hotel not too far from here?' Her parents never liked when she was without her driver and bodyguard.
Being a Sterling came with consequences. They wanted to make sure their baby girl was safe at all times. With all the bad people that her parents had come in contact with, this is the most freedom Amber had ever gotten since she met Karlie. Her parents are a lot more open to the fact that she's growing up. It was quiet at Karlie's house."
