THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

Once Christopher received Amber’s hand, he stood next to her at the large table, decorated for this civil ceremony. He watched her with tenderness, love and admiration. The two sat facing the first civil authority of Santiago de Leon.

At the beginning of the civil ceremony, everyone gathered around to witness the ceremony directly. As usual, it culminated with the classic questions of this type of marriage, anywhere in the world.

-The First Authority: Christopher Jesus Morillo Wood, do you take Miss Amber Maria Tovar Marin as your wife, to live together in holy matrimony, to love, honor, comfort and care for her in sickness and in health, keeping faithfulness to her for as long as you both shall live?

-Christopher: Yes, I do,” he answered with a wide smile that was reflected even in his eyes.

-First Authority: Amber Maria Tovar Marin, do you receive Christopher Jesus Morillo Wood as your husband, to live together in holy matrimony, to love, honor, comfort and care for him in sickness and in health, keeping him faithful, for as long as your lives last?

Amber: Yes, I do.

First Authority: By virtue of the authority vested in me by the laws of Santiago de Leon, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride,” the official finally said.

Christopher immediately took Amber in his arms and gave her a passionate kiss. He thus sealed this civil marriage in front of his parents, mother-in-law, sister, brother-in-law and godparents. In addition, they had the presence of their best friends: Elian and Genesis, who were his witnesses, along with his godparents.

After the kiss, they were loudly applauded and congratulated by everyone present, including Nairobi and Mildred, Amber’s two lawyer friends and colleagues. They were the only ones she invited from the firm, as well as Christopher’s other close friend Joshua.

Then, Christopher’s parents and prior to the church wedding, made a first toast for this act, wishing the best to their children. For them, through this marriage, they got a new daughter: Amber.

-To you, my love! -said Christopher, with a whisper to Amber, who smiled and looked calm.

-For you, my life! -she toasted, kissing him softly on the lips.

They looked happy, content and very cheerful, sharing with their guests, until one hour before the celebration of the main ceremony, they went up to their bedrooms to change and start with the other act…

Again, Christopher and his parents waited at the improvised altar in the mansion for Amber’s arrival. She came down from the room and walked on her mother’s arm, through the carpet made in the garden to where her beloved groom was waiting for her.

Christopher, moved by the beauty, candor and purity that emanated from her, was on the verge of tears. Amber looked so beautiful and the gown she so secretly kept for him, outlined her perfect feminine silhouette. She was a work of art, both she and the suit.

He held out his hands to greet her, as she arrived next to him. He thanked Sabrina for this delivery. He, again with his gaze, took a tour of the garden, detailing the people present at his ceremony, calming himself down to see that everything was under control.

Turning with Amber to the altar, he concentrated exclusively on the ritual of their wedding. As they continued with the proclamation of consent, the priest invited them to manifest it, with joined hands, before God and before the church, pronouncing the following words:

-I, Christopher Jesus Morillo Wood, receive you, Amber Maria Tovar Marin, as my wife and give myself to you, I promise to be faithful to you in prosperity and adversity; in sickness and in health and to respect you all the days of my life.

-I, Amber Maria Tovar Marin, receive you, Christopher Jesus Morillo Wood, as my husband and I give myself to you. I promise to be faithful to you in prosperity and adversity; in sickness and in health and to respect you all the days of my life.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The priest then proceeded to state:

-What God has joined together, let not man put asunder.

Afterwards, the priest proceeded to bless the rings, and then they proceeded to exchange them, repeating the words of this formality. And to conclude, once they were declared husband and wife, Christopher kissed Amber very passionately, so they were again loudly applauded.

At the conclusion of the ceremony, he walked proudly down the center aisle, between the chairs around the altar. He carried his wife on his arm, feeling immensely happy and blissful, for the realization of this dream, as did she. Their faces were beaming.

Once they had completed their walk down this central aisle, family and friends who accompanied them came forward to congratulate them. After this, they all walked to the reception area, which was intentionally separated.

As the two of them walked hand in hand, Christopher stopped her for a few seconds and said….

-Finally, my love! You are already mine and I am only yours,” he assured her, kissing her again on the lips.

-Yes, as you said, you are mine at last,” she commented, smiling and relaxing from the strong nerves she had been holding all day long.

-Mrs. de Morillo, welcome to me,” he said, opening his arms.

-Thank you, my love! -For everything, but especially for making this wonderful day a reality,” she thanked him, all excited and on the verge of tears, which she was able to control.

-I wish from the bottom of my heart to make you immensely happy, that every day of life we have together, we climb one more step of happiness,” he declared, kissing her again, with immense tenderness.

Releasing her, they both smiled and walked the final distance to the garden area where everything was set up for the reception. Before entering, he pulled her tightly to his body, hugged, kissed and caressed her face very tenderly. Saying in her ear…

-You are very beautiful, my love, radiant, I see you immensely happy and I feel the same,” he affirmed affectionately.

-I am. You have given me this happiness and joy, which shows on my face, making me look so radiant, as you say,” she expressed with pleasure and satisfaction.

-Now let’s enjoy our wedding,” he confessed, “but you know, don’t separate from me, not even for a second. As soon as I tell you in your ear that we’re leaving, we’ll leave quickly to elope to our honeymoon.

-Yes, my darling, as you say,” she answered, giving him a tender kiss on his lips…
