THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

In Santiago de Leon

The next day, Genesis, more relaxed, calm and happy that she had agreed to go out to dinner and dance with Elian, arrived at her workplace. She put aside the worries she felt about the low sales, during that month, at the travel agency.

They analyzed that it was suddenly due to the fact that the last month of the year was about to begin. The quotas for that period had been sold out beforehand. Besides, many people wanted to spend these dates with their families in Santiago de Leon.

-Don’t worry, Genesis,” said Elian, “everything is working perfectly. You will realize that every company has its ups and downs, so this situation is normal.

In any case, insist on advertising through the networks, offering links and numbers of links,” he affirmed, thinking that there was something about her that attracted him very much.

-Please, Elian! Stop looking at me like that, you make me nervous,” she said, blushing and putting her hands to her face.

He was staring at her, impressed that at this point, a woman as determined and independent as she was, was blushing. As she is, she observed with tenderness the two dimples that, on his cheeks, were drawn as she smiled broadly.

-Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha! You’re the one who makes me nervous,” he declared, smiling.

-Then go away so I can work! -she ordered coquettishly. Genesis didn’t want to delude herself, but something made her sense that he was attracted to her.

“According to Amber, I have a good eye for knowing when one person is attracted to another and at this very moment, I feel that way with Elian” she thought, reflecting on their glances.

-Elian, do you remember that tomorrow Christopher’s godparents are going on a trip with their daughters?” she asked, curiously, to divert his attention.

-Yes, I have everything ready,” he said calmly, “Please call them, remind them of the time they must be at the airport!

Christopher asked me to treat them as he would treat himself,” he repeated, remembering that he had not provided them with transportation to the air terminal.

-I ask if they require transportation to the terminal? -Genesis asked, guessing his thoughts.

-Yes, please!” he replied with a smile, “You read my thoughts! Ha ha ha ha!

-I guess I’d better! If I can always guess your thoughts, then everything will be perfect,” she assured him, smiling and looking again at the two dimples on his cheeks.

Elian left Genesis’ office, whistling a romantic melody that betrayed the state he was in. This was astonishing to many, because up until now, he has been a very serious person that they have rarely seen smile, let alone humming a song.

He made his way up to the floor where the CEO’s offices are located, which have restricted access, only for management and extremely trusted personnel. Here he met Christopher, who informed him that he would be accompanying his sponsors on the trip, because the Island’s Foreign Minister had called him to talk to him.

In view of this, Christopher will take advantage of the flight, to go and return with the crew to Santiago de Leon. Besides, that way he would leave his godparents and daughters well installed. This idea made him bite his lower lip on the far right, remembering something pleasant.

-What are you thinking,” Elian asked, discovering in him an interest in someone on this trip, “Don’t tell me you like one of your godfather’s daughters? In the passports, all three look very beautiful -assured his assistant, with a smile.

-Aha!” agreed Christopher adding, “I see you smiling a lot lately. Genesis is doing an excellent job,” he affirmed with the intention of diverting the conversation.

-Don’t divert the conversation,” replied Elian, “I know you! I’ve been working with you for many years, do you like any of your godparents’ daughters?” he asked, smiling.

“And so, how does the new conquest look like to Amber?” asked Elian with a wide smile.

-That’s a class apart! -She’s the woman of my life, my stiff drink, all the others are just pastries,” he assured, smiling and patting his assistant on the back.

Next, Christopher left for his Penthouse, to pack his suitcase. Besides, he had to organize the documentation requested by the Minister of the Island, because they will discuss and sign new agreements.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

-Michelle, daughter! What have the lawyers told you about your case? I miss you too much in Santiago,” said Hildegart Fontain sitting in front of his daughter with a glass of whiskey in his hand.

-Daddy, they won’t grant me any benefits because I ran away! -This is also detrimental to me in terms of the length of my sentence, which could be double that of the others, because I am the mastermind.

-I don’t know how you put your trust in people like that! -He added, “We have always been careful not to leave any traces or let others know what we are doing,” he assured.

-Nothing, I have no excuse! I just got complacent, Dad. I thought he wouldn’t betray me,” she explained, watching the news on the net about Christopher’s new business and his travel agency, to which he has incorporated his fleet of airplanes.

-Those traitors! -she commented angrily, reading the review.

– Apparently, he is doing very well,” confirmed her father, making a gesture with his mouth, observing over her, what he was reading on his Tablet, about Christopher.

-Yes, it seems so, father! He is overcoming the near ruin that Amber brought him to,” she criticized with anger and disgust.

-That’s not our problem! Let him have his fun and keep playing at being the richest young businessman on the planet,” her father said.

Let’s wait for the list published by F magazine this year, tomorrow is the last month of the year and we’ll see who appears on it as the richest people in the world,” he added.

-My money’s on Dylan, father. This year has been extraordinary for him,” she said, turning her face to her father and raising an eyebrow.

-The same for us, daughter! Don’t forget, in all of Dylan’s recent business dealings, we’ve been with him, sharing a fifty-fifty,” her father said, with a smile.

When his wife arrived from shopping, he said goodbye to his daughter, because he was going back on a private flight to Santiago de Leon. He had to return that weekend, because on Monday of the following week, he had the hearing in the Court, in the morning hours…
