THE LIE: DECEPTION TO THE CEO

The following weekend

In Santiago de Leon, a few days before the end of the summer season and welcome autumn, with very high and hot temperatures, in which the days are usually longer, Christopher invited his whole family for a yacht ride.

Despite having invited Genesis and Elian, they did not attend because she was already in her eighth month of pregnancy and they did not want to risk it. Besides, this trip will only be for a weekend, so Christopher hired a crew to enjoy it as well.

Since he owns several yachts, which he rents, as well as airplanes, he booked the largest and most luxurious one. It has additional cabins, with a VIP suite in addition to his own suite. It also has a Jacuzzi and a swimming pool with a social area, as well as a kitchen and dining area.

-My love, I’ll take the baby up! -he said, upon arriving at the port of embarkation.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

-Yes, my love,” agreed Amber, “I’ll wait for you, so you can take me on board too, because if I don’t get seasick,” she assured him, with a smile and winking at him.

-Relax! When I left the baby in Sabrina’s arms, she came down for you,” he explained, with a broad smile, indulging her.

“I’ve got her super spoiled and pampered,” he reflected, watching her with narrowed eyes and a look charged with infinite love for her.

-Amber, don’t put on your bathing suit! The crew is made up of young men and I don’t want to fight with some of them, if they should look at you with desire.

-As you wish, my love! -she confirmed.

-It’s the first time I’ve hired personnel for the yacht! It’s always Elian who takes care of all this,” he commented in a whisper to her and looked a little suspiciously at the crew.

-Well, Mr. Morillo, let’s stop the paranoia! Let’s concentrate on enjoying this ride with our loved ones,” she pleaded, with a wide and flirtatious smile, which is like a spark of electricity for him.

-Mrs. Morillo! Since I will not be in command of the yacht, I will be in command of your body, so it will be forbidden for you to be more than one meter away from me, and you will not wear a bathing suit, except when we are both in the Jacuzzi,” he ordered, in her ear.

-As you order, Captain,” she replied, smiling and giving him a military salute.

In spite of his wife’s optimism, Christopher decided to activate his personal location, that is, the GPS of his cell phone so that Elian would track his ride all the time, because he felt like something was not right.

He hired the captain, the chief engineer with an assistant and the chef de cuisine with his assistant. Still, he was not satisfied, so he sent Elian his itinerary, so that he could monitor the trip and even activated the yacht’s interior and exterior security system.

It has basic cameras with wifi connection. It has night vision and motion detection to trigger alerts. Throughout his fleet of yachts and jet skis, he has a security system with motion detection.

Even so, he still has a feeling that something is not right and decided to call Elian just before setting sail.

-Elian, I mailed you the credentials of the personnel who will be accompanying me on this trip.

I preferred to recruit them, to ease your workload, since you are in the last days of your wife’s pregnancy,” he commented, worried.

-If you had consulted me, I would not have allowed you to hire personnel without having them reviewed by the port. In any case, I have already checked,” he assured him. “Remember that there are many mafias, especially pirates, who are hunting for tycoons or relatives of tycoons, to demand a reward.

-Yes, my friend. The problem is that I’ve got everyone here on the yacht and we’re already setting sail!” reflected Christopher.

“I didn’t even get a heads up from the captain and we set sail. I don’t know, but it gives me a very bad feeling,” he added, looking towards the chief engineer.

-Okay! I’d rather be safe than sorry, especially when you’re carrying your whole family, I’m going to try a transfer, so you can really enjoy your trip. In a few minutes I’ll get back to you,” Elian answered.

-Yes, please, I prefer that you send another of my yachts, with security personnel, to guard us,” he affirmed, with feelings of guilt for not having taken all the necessary security measures in this case. And as if that were not enough, his father approached him.

-Who hired that and which captain?” asked his father, with distrust and doubts.

-I did, Dad. I think I made a mistake, I already passed all the information to Elian. He is taking care of everything, so be prepared for a possible transfer to another yacht,” commented Christopher to his father, who very discreetly talked to Thiago.

They concentrated on the upper deck, around the pool, without changing because they were all aware of Christopher’s suspicions about the crew. They had to act normally, so as not to arouse suspicion in the group.

While there, he received the information from Elian, all the crew belonged to a gang, belonging to the piracy mafias at sea. Consequently, he had to take extreme care of the children on board the yacht, as well as the women.

He did not give this information to Amber, because it would be worse and she is breastfeeding the baby. He had to lock them in the safest cabin, which for him, was the one he always occupied.

So, Christopher took them all, along with the children, to the suite he always uses, which provides greater protection, in case there is any confrontation. In view of this, the group immediately suspected that they had been discovered and for this reason, they advanced their actions.

As Christopher left the cabin, he heard a shot, but was surprised and hit savagely in the head, so he almost fell to the floor. He quickly reacted and rushed at the offender, who was armed. He squeezed the wrist of the offender’s right arm to make him drop his weapon…
