THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

-When you visited me at the checkpoint, there were many unanswered questions, which remained unanswered, such as why did I come to that room where you were with Dylan? -Christopher asked, to start watching these videos.

-Right! How did you know I was there? -she asked in a surly voice.

-Because, I started to receive pictures of you on my cell phone from an unknown number….

Because I didn’t answer, I got an anonymous call telling me that you were betraying me,” he answered, turning his face to face her and handing her his cell phone so she could see the pictures and messages.

But Amber did not believe him even when she took her cell phone and began to review the photos he mentioned along with the messages.

-In these photos I don’t see anything that compromises me, so that you would doubt me,” she commented, returning the cell phone, with a murderous look.

-Before you start imagining anything, please! Look at this video,” he pleaded, removing himself from her side, so that she could watch it calmly and in detail.

Amber concentrated on the entire video, while he stood at the side of his office window smoking a cigarette. When she finished watching the video, she approached him.

-What did you want me to see? -she asked, arrogantly and haughtily.

-Everything! Don’t tell me, you didn’t realize the whole plot, scheme and manipulation that was used to separate us? -He asked with astonishment and agitation, leaving his cigarette in the ashtray.

-The content of the video makes us presume more, it does not prove reliably, what I already know,” she declared with disdain.

“There is no evidence that I slept with Dylan, anywhere. So? -So?” she asserted, opening her arms, placing the palms of her hands upwards.

“In any case, if you had asked me, I would have replied, “At no time, I slept with Dylan.” I didn’t cheat on you,” she replied haughtily, shaking her head from side to side, “I guess you don’t believe me, I don’t care what you think!

-No, it’s not just that, Amber! And yes, I do believe you,” he interrupted, taking her by the arms, “It’s for you to know, that I got there because of a trap and I fell into this one, like a fool,” he confirmed angrily.

-And I, was I supposed to pay the consequences of your stupidity? -She asked ironically -So, was this the famous information you had, that could help me? No shit, Christopher! I considered you more intelligent -she affirmed.

-Please, Amber! Everything was armed and prepared by someone, to separate us -he assured trying to hold her, but she struggled with him and freed herself from his hands.

-Oh, come on! What you want me to see is that someone manipulated you at their whim, ha! I already knew that. That you were set up? I knew that too,” she added with a hostile voice and moving away from him.

-Then, why didn’t you defend yourself when I slapped you? -You kept quiet,” he said.

-How did you want me to be? You didn’t give me time to react. You assaulted me, you hit me, you insulted me -she answered, angrily.

“The man who said he loved me, adored me, who was dying for me, at the first hitch, doubted and distrusted me. He beat me and didn’t give me the slightest chance, to defend myself,” Amber declared with bitterness and loathing for him.

-But I had the evidence in my hand and before my eyes, seeing Dylan, bare-chested and panting before the balcony of the suite, as if he had just made love,” he replied with fury and jealousy.

– “My conscience is clear, I never betrayed you,” she confessed, not caring whether he believed her or not.

“Every day that passes, I regret having committed the greatest stupidity, falling in love with you and thinking that you loved me the same,” she replied with rage and sorrow, walking towards the exit of the office.

However, Christopher followed her and taking her again by the arms, he held her to confess to her,

-Never doubt how I felt about you! I loved you, you were everything to me,” he said, regretfully, “Put yourself in my place for a minute, if it had been the other way around, what would you have done? -he asked with disgust.

-I would have called you, I would have waited to talk to you and clarify the situation, I would have given you the benefit of the doubt, something you didn’t do with me,” she said angrily.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

-Still observing, why would I go into a hotel room with another woman? -He interrupted violently, staring at her with a look that burned her. She felt it burning on her skin, on her body, which he pulled closer to his.

-Why didn’t you call me? -She asked in her icy voice, letting go of his arms and walking towards the chair where her bag was.

-I did call you, but your cell phone went straight to voicemail,” he clarified in a calmer tone of voice.

-Well! Fighting about it at this point is out of the question. The thing was, you believed in what others wrote to you and who, by the way, didn’t even show their faces to you. Thank God I didn’t marry you! -she declared, with a satirical smile.

-Amber, did you see the whole video? -He insisted, anxiously. “Did you read the messages I received? -he asked, incredulous at her answers and attitudes.

-Of course, I saw them! It is evident that you didn’t give me the opportunity to defend myself, but you judged and condemned me right off the bat,” she confirmed with resentment.

-But understand me, I was jealous, angry, she was the woman I loved, for whom I was ready to do anything. I wish you could put yourself in my shoes,” he pleaded again, approaching her again.

“I lost all capacity for reasoning,” he explained demanding and bold, dragging her to the wall and placing his hands at her sides.

-“Even so! I had a right to defend myself,” she cried, “I had a right to be heard, but no, it was easier for you to believe any lie than to seek the truth,” she cried in a surly voice, trying to get out of the confinement of his arms. However, he would not allow it.

“Don’t provoke me Chris! -She growled, “Or you’ll come out worse, than the last time you kissed me. I figured you’d get over the urge to provoke me,” she warned in disgust…
