THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

-Heh, heh, heh! My love, my mother insisted that at least a few hours before, we have a fast, to fully enjoy our wedding night. Please, let me indulge her at least in this!” said Amber, kissing his lips softly.

-I always get hurt!” he exclaimed, pouting, which made Amber hug him and shower him with kisses.

So to please Sabrina, the two of them refrained from making their huge marital bed that day.

The next day…

That day, in the morning, Christopher as soon as he woke up went to Sabrina’s room, where Amber slept with her mother.

Good morning, Sabrina,” Christopher greeted his mother-in-law, kissing her cheek and asking her to call Amber to talk to her. However, this one, answered him….

Good morning, my dear son-in-law. Amber is not awake yet. Last night she had a hard time sleeping, I don’t know what was wrong with her, maybe it was the nerves from today’s event, it took her a long time to fall asleep,” Sabrina said with a smile.

-I was the same, mommy,” he assured, smiling, “But well, thank God, the big day has arrived. So let’s enjoy it. According to my parents’ tradition, I can’t see her today until we meet at the altar.

-Yes, I’m of that opinion too! Even though you’ve been living together, I’d rather you didn’t see him,” Sabrina commented.

“It’s only a matter of a few hours, remember that the civil wedding will be at five in the afternoon, you will be able to see her and kiss her which I imagine is your great desire,” her mother-in-law said with a wide smile.

Mother-in-law, please don’t make fun of my great need for her,” he begged. Whereupon he made his mother-in-law guffaw.

Tell her that I love her and that I will be waiting for her with great longing,” he begged, giving up and leaving the room where they had slept.

-Quiet, son! I’ll give him your message,” replied Sabrina, as she saw him turn around to walk toward the stairs.

-Thank you, Mommy! For all your support and especially for your immense love,” saying this, he went back to Sabrina, hugged and kissed her, thanking her for always being by his side.

-I love you very much son, since Amber took you to that apartment where we lived for the first time, I knew you were the man for her. You are the love of her life or as they say, her soul mate. Make her happy! -she pleaded, very tenderly.

-Yes, Mommy! I will do everything possible, and impossible, to make it so,” he assured her, committing himself to his mother-in-law.

“Will you come and live with us? I won’t take no for an answer, because it’s a huge house, a palace like this one, so you can’t argue that we need privacy, because we’ll have plenty of it there,” he commented, smiling.

“Ahhh! And please, tell my beloved, that I can’t see her, and I’ll still be calling her, for anything,” he replied, showing a look and a smile that betrayed his immense happiness.

-Perfect, son! It’s better to have everything under control, although I think that with your parents as hosts and in charge of everything, it’s more than enough,” added his mother-in-law.

-Ha ha ha! That’s right,” he replied.

Once his mother-in-law closed the bedroom door, he went downstairs to meet his father, with whom he went downstairs to have breakfast and to settle some matters related to the wedding, such as security control.

-Dad, I don’t want any surprises! Especially, from Dylan who has disappeared so far, I think it was him, who the authorities of the island were looking for,” he clarified, remembering that when they caught Michelle’s father, one of those involved with them, had escaped.

Although the wedding will be celebrated without fanfare for the society of Santiago de Leon. For their family and closest friends, they will. Therefore, security could not fail them. Besides, they do not want paparazzi or drones flying over the airspace of the mansion.

Meanwhile, Amber in the room she shared with her mom, was too nervous?

-Calm down daughter! Take this painkiller, it’s for your nerves and it’s natural,” explained her mother, getting her to relax a little.

Christopher’s mother, who had also gone upstairs to help Sabrina, when she entered and realized the state Amber was in, was amazed. Amber was always in control of her emotions and was a nervous wreck.

-Mommy Michelle, I feel a strong fear in my stomach, it’s like a premonition. However, I don’t give space to those thoughts and I reject them outright, but they come to me again,” she confirmed, on the verge of tears.

-“Cling to God, ask him to be with you and help you fulfill this dream,” Michelle advised, hugging her tenderly, massaging her back gently to calm her down.

“I imagine, this is a consequence of everything you had to go through, to get to this day with my son,” Michelle assured her.

-I swear, I don’t want to feel like this,” she said, crying.

Outside, Christopher’s voice could be heard. He knocked on the door to find out what was going on. It had caught his attention, that the women of his family came in and out of the room, with a worried face. While Amber, he had not been able to see him.

Amber, calming down a little, said to her mother….

-Tell Christopher I’m fine, I’ll call him right away to reassure him,” she assured her mother.

Immediately, Sabrina left the room where the designer and the stylist hired by Christopher were already in the room and passed the message to Christopher, so that he could calm down. Calling him Amber, at that very moment.

-Hello! My love, it’s me, I’m fine, I’m just nervous, which apparently is normal. I want to ask you something, please do not leave the mansion under any pretext,” she requested, anxious and nervous.

-Yes, my love, I will!” he answered, who was calm when he heard and felt that nothing was happening, “Something special for you to make this request?

-Yes, a feeling! -she confessed, calmer too, being able to talk to him.

After this, the day went by very fast, being the time for the civil ceremony, Amber went down in her first attire, accompanied by her mother, towards the internal reception hall on the first floor of the mansion, with capacity for about a hundred people.

However, their guests were very few, since they did not want any publicity or advertising boom for it. They only wanted to legalize and formalize their relationship. This, however, did not take away from the elegance, glamour and waste of millions of dollars in the event.

Christopher, accompanied by his parents, sister and brother-in-law, was standing at the side of the table decorated for the celebration of this civil ceremony. Seeing Amber wrapped in the gown he himself chose for this event, he smiled with pride and satisfaction.

-Definitely, parents, she is the woman of my life, she was born for me,” he declared to them, feeling a strong emotion in his heart.

-Yes, my love,” answered his mother, “I knew it, I felt it from the moment you brought her to the house for the first time. She looked so childlike, so angelic and pure,” she reaffirmed.

-I agree with your mother, son. Please be happy and make Amber very happy! -begged his father.

-Yes, daddy! That’s my life’s goal from now on, I promise! -said Christopher, filled with joy and happiness…
