Chapter 13 Summary: “Amber”

Amber is still reeling from humiliation after Daisy Ann publicly accused her of murder. As Amber and Remi leave the event, Amber bursts into tears, reflecting bitterly on the fact that the other women in Bishops Harbor have always looked down on her. Remi questions Amber, who admits to having been married to Daisy Ann’s father but paints herself as a victim of the woman’s hostility. Amber recounts meeting and marrying Jake Crawford, who was an older, wealthy widower. She also claims that after Jake died in a hunting accident, Daisy Ann turned against her.

Privately, Amber recalls carefully planning her relationship with Jake and even going as far as to mimic his late wife’s interests and appearance. Her calculated efforts were successful, but she was left with nothing after his death due to Daisy Ann’s control over the family estate. Amber now feels wronged both by Daisy Ann’s accusation and by the fact that her careful scheme did not yield the financial reward she anticipated.

Remi is disturbed by the news of Amber’s past marriage, especially when Amber admits that Daisy Ann accused her of shooting Jake. Amber internally berates herself for attending the event without researching White Orchid Designs.
