THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

Meanwhile in Croatia

After leaving Italy, Christopher and Amber landed in Zagreb, Croatia, where they first visited St. Mark’s Church, located in the Gradec district. Christopher, as an architect, was very interested in observing the styles of architecture, just like in Italy.

-Observe, my love, this beauty! -Christopher suggested, pulling Amber into his embrace.

-Yes, my love, I am fascinated especially with those statues,” she replied, putting her arm around Christopher’s waist.

-They are fifteen gothic statues, but what attracts me the most are those two huge coats of arms that occupy the entire roof. Also, look at that is the Stone Gate, a defensive wall, the only one that is still preserved.

-Spectacular! -she added.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

-Let’s go now to the Stossmayer promenade! It’s right here in Gradec, there is a great variety of terraces, where we can listen to music and attend open-air cinema.

-Let’s go! -she said, excited but already showing a bit of tiredness.

Once in the place, it was a pleasant experience. They said goodbye the next day with a visit to the Zagreb Cathedral located on Tkalcica Street, a very lively street with dozens of terraces and a great atmosphere where they could browse through the perpendicular alleys.

Then, they left for Greece because they had little time left to return to Santiago de Leon, so their visit to these last three countries, Croatia, Greece and Turkey, was completed in one week.

In Greece

At the Athens International Airport, Amber began to feel the hot and dry climate of that country at that time of the year. However, being the cradle of Western civilization, she was ready to tour archaeological sites, markets, viewpoints and Orthodox churches.

-Well, my love, we will start our tour at the Acropolis, which is more than one hundred and fifty meters high, one of the most important places, they open at eight in the morning, so we can see the top and enjoy the Parthenon,” he said.

-As you order my beloved guide! -commented smiling Amber, who upon arriving at the hotel, took a shower and went to bed thinking she would rest. However, Christopher did not think so, as he had not made love to her for several hours.

-You can’t comment that you were in Greece, without remembering how and how much I loved you,” he said, with a mischievous smile.

-Impossible, not to remember everything we’ve done, in full flight! -she added, pleasing him immediately.

So that first night in Athens was unforgettable for both of them, they loved each other until they were exhausted, satiated and satisfied. They got up early the next morning to continue their itinerary. Starting the tour, as he had planned, by the Acropolis.

Then, they went down to see the archaeological remains in the site. Afterwards, they climbed the small Areopagus hill, also entering the Acropolis Museum.

Afterwards, they went to the neighborhood of Plaka, with narrow streets, beautiful facades of 19th century buildings and old taverns, where they devoured a good moussaka.

Moussaka is a pie of minced lamb or veal, eggplant and bechamel sauce, which is baked au gratin, which they both loved. Also, the gyro, meat roasted in a vertical oven that was served in a pita bread, accompanied by vegetables, french fries and sauces.

In this City, they toured the Lycabettus Hill, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Ancient Agora, the Central Market and the Psiri neighborhood. The Filopapo Hill, with its one hundred and forty-seven meters of height, became one of the best viewpoints of the City, for them.

Finally, they spent two days in Turkey, from where they returned to Spain and from there to Santiago. They were awaited with much longing by all their family, especially by Sabrina, who missed Amber very much.

In Santiago de Leon

Joshua, when he came out of the bathroom and saw Angie sleeping, he contemplated her in silence, he himself did not know for sure, what he felt for her, but he had the need to take care of her and protect her, even from his own family, because so far, apparently, they have not been a good influence for her either.

He came out of the bathroom and put on his pajamas, lying down next to Angie, gently pulling her body to him, kissing her gently on the head, caressing her soft and delicate back with his hands.

-I don’t know how I feel about you! But since I saw you the first time, you made the flame of desire and passion rise in my body, I wanted to make you mine,” he whispered softly so as not to wake her up, feeling something growing inside him.

“Being away from you, makes me want you more, I miss you, when I don’t see you. You’re an addiction and I mustn’t let you control me because you’ll sweep the floor with me” reflected the giggler, settling down to sleep, hugging this one.

The next day, Joshua got up early to go to the hotel. Ready to leave, he went to the bedroom to kiss her goodbye. When he entered, he found her standing up all dizzy, holding tightly to the lintel of the bed.

-What’s the matter, my love?” he asked, worried and running to her so she wouldn’t fall, taking her in his arms.

-I want to go to the bathroom, but I got dizzy,” she replied, pouting, about to burst into tears, resting her head on Joshua’s chest.

Immediately, he took her to the bathroom, sat her on the toilet and while she was urinating, he called his assistant.

-Cancel, all meetings now in the morning! Reschedule them and let me know with a message,” without waiting for an answer, he hung up the call and took her back to the bedroom.

-How are you feeling? -He asked, kissing her on the lips and placing her on his lap, holding her close to his body.

-With the dizziness, I don’t know what’s moving, the ceiling or the floor,” she said.

-What did your mother tell you? Do you know any gynecologist who is also an obstetrician? -he asked.

-Yes, my godparents’ daughter, but she was going to contact her and make an appointment. Besides, she told me she wanted to go with us,” she added, leaning fully against his chest.

-I need a solution now. Let’s call her and ask her to give us her name and phone number so we can reach her. I need her to see you today and if it’s not her, then I’ll go to the clinic nearby and have someone else see you,” he said, dialing Angie’s mother’s number.

-Good morning, Mrs. Sindy! -He greeted when Angie’s mother answered, “Sorry to bother you, but I need to take Angie to a gynecologist urgently, can you give me the name and cell phone number of the one you offered.

-What happened?” she asked, she is worried.

-She almost fell, because of a strong dizziness she had,” he added anxiously.

-I’ll send it to your WhatsApp,” she answered, quickly looking for the contact and sending it to him.

-Don’t let her get up! It’s better to be safe and just starting the pregnancy, falls are extremely dangerous,” she advised.

-Yes, I will, and thank you, I’m waiting for your message! In the meantime, I’m going to take her to the bathroom and then get her dressed,” he commented, which pleased her, because he was really behaving like the ideal husband.

-I think it’s excellent! But you must relax a little, it’s not good for Angie to see you nervous, otherwise it will be worse for both of you. One of us must keep calm,” she ratified, because despite the mistake made by her daughter, she made the right choice even though they are not married…
