WHAT HAPPENED HERE AMBER?
Two hours earlier, on Islander
When Christopher disappeared from Amber’s vision, there was a loud silence that echoed louder than any scream. Apparently, there was an inability to articulate words, which would clarify what he had just stated and Amber did not refute.
Dylan, a little recovered from the shock of hearing that she was back together with Christopher, despite all that she had done to him in the past, decided to withdraw. Sabrina was looking very bad, besides, she was really angry.
-With your permission, I’ll leave,” he said, hiding the dejection he felt, “Have a good rest,” and he left without approaching Amber.
Once he closed the door Sabrina stood up and that’s when she could emit a sound, as she had never done before:
-WHAT HAPPENED HERE AMBER?!” her mother shouted loudly, dismayed as she had never been before, with disgust and rejection towards her daughter.
-Mother, I was going to tell you!” answered a frightened Amber, since she had never spoken to her like that before, this was something new for her.
“It’s true mother, I was going to tell you! But, between so many problems and the change here, I forgot,” she answered, looking astonished at her mother.
-How can I believe you now? That night was the day you arrived late, a little drunk and you didn’t want to face me. Was that how you were going to tell me? -asked her mother ironically, very angry with her.
-I know I should have told you at once, but it’s true, I was going to tell you! Only, I was waiting for the right moment to do it. And yes, I was with him that night you say,” she confessed, clasping her hands and looking out the apartment window.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“We went to the country restaurant, then to his Penthouse. I don’t know, whether it was because of the drinking or just because I felt vulnerable in front of him,” she declared, letting her tears flow, because this has only proved to him… that she still loves him, despite everything.
-That, is something I don’t like either! You didn’t consume any liquor before and now you do, last night you were like that, as you say, “vulnerable”, but this time with Dylan,” her mother stated with displeasure and anger, as she had never been with her daughter.
“What’s going on with you, where did the principles I instilled in you go? Now I ask you, did you take care of yourself when you were with Christopher?
Amber, opening her eyes like a plate, before that question from her mother, did not know what to answer, taking both hands glued together and covering her mouth, because until now she had not thought about it.
-If you’re going to know who it’s from,” her mother growled, getting angrier and angrier. Getting up from the sofa and going to her room, but not before telling her….
Buy me a one-way ticket to Santiago de Leon, I want to leave tomorrow. That way you will be free to do whatever you want with your life, without me interfering in your affairs”, saying this, he went into his room to pack his suitcase again.
Amber, taking a seat in one of the armchairs in the living room of the apartment, was speechless, crying, at all the words her angry mother shouted loudly at her. Never before, in her twenty-three plus years, had her mother treated her this way.
It was a hard blow for her, to observe her mother in this state, especially to hear from her own lips, all that she stated.

Meanwhile, Dylan arrived at his apartment and smashed the first ornament he could find against the living room wall. The rage and hatred against Christopher, made him lose control of everything. And on top of that…
“Stupid Amber, she’s still in love and lusting after him. But, this is over, from now on the first chance I get she will be mine by hook or by crook”, he thought, smiling with a malevolent laugh.
After this, he walked to the bar and began to drink liquor, scornful for what Amber had done to him. He could not conceive that having been punished so harshly by Christopher, she was still in love with him.
That night, in his apartment, he dedicated himself to listening to rebound music and consuming liquor. With this, he tried to forget Christopher’s words that hammered in his mind: “You did it to me again… You slept with me. But now being with him…”.
Dylan, cursing both Christopher and Amber, threw himself on the couch, bottle in hand, drinking and listening to music. When checking his iPhone for social media, he found the news, which brought him back to peace, calm and life.
[Breaking news: from the Islander airport air base, they are reporting the disappearance of a private plane, property of the tycoon, billionaire and CEO of Constructora e Inmobiliaria Internacional Morillo & Wood, a company linked from its beginnings to the political power of the nation].
[Latest news: it is not officially known who was on the private plane that apparently crashed in the night hours of today, in the region of Islander].
[TV Network: we report the disappearance of the plane owned by Christopher Morillo Wood, in the eastern part of Islander, apparently with him on board].
Each one of these news, already passed thousands of views and comments, lamenting the accident and the physical disappearance of Christopher Morillo and his crew. Some reported having seen, at noon, the tycoon leaving his plane from his private hangar at the airport of Santiago de Leon.
Dylan, at this news, smiled and raised a glass to toast, in his apartment, to the late Christopher Morillo, smiling and celebrating his death, commenting on each one of these news: “Q. E. P. S. D.”
-What happiness I feel! We didn’t even have to lift a finger to finish him off. He went off on his own. Ha ha ha ha! ha ha ha ha!” Dylan shouted out loud, celebrating Christopher’s demise.
At that same moment, in Santiago de Leon
Genesis, accompanying her boss, in the transmission room of the company, had not received any news about the rescue group hired by Elian, to find out if they had already gone out in search of the apparently wrecked ship.
She was dismayed and uneasy, she was sure that he had gone after Amber. What she did not understand was why he decided to return that same night to Santiago, if he had already been notified about the terrible weather conditions to fly over the area.
At midnight, Genesis told Elian that he should go to his apartment, after that it would be more difficult to find transportation to leave. He apologized for the delay in her departure and offered her a ride, which she accepted.
