WAIT UNTIL THE RAGE IS OVER!
Two months later…
Two months have passed since Amber and Christopher’s visit to the Attorney’s mansion, and they are still sleeping in separate rooms. Although they initially tried to disguise it, she ended up taking him out of the room.
By virtue of this, Christopher had been sleeping outside of his conjugal room for eight weeks, in one of the guest rooms. Although all the staff at the mansion knew about it, none of them had dared to tell their mothers, not even Piero.
Christopher, in order to avoid further deepening his differences with Amber, devoted himself to working hard on his companies. He managed to put them into full production, dedicating himself to them body and soul, from dawn until late at night.
-Christopher, what happened, my friend, did you sleep here in the office? asked Elian, when he saw his personal room open in his office, and it was barely seven in the morning.
-I fell asleep on the desk! It was so late that I laid down for a while to rest and fell sound asleep. I think, it’s getting to me not getting a full rest. So, I’m going home to sleep and I’ll be back in the afternoon,” he said.
-Did you check on Amber,” Elian asked, worried about his friend.
-No,” he answered, shaking his head from side to side, “As I told you, I fell asleep and I woke up just a few minutes ago.
-Dude, but this is worse! Who knows what Amber supposes now?” questioned Elian, without giving any opinion, neither for nor against, because of the respect and love he feels for both of them.
-I know! But I swear, it wasn’t intentional, I was overcome by sleep,” he said, holding his hands to his head, in a gesture of total tiredness and weariness.
-Why don’t you try to fix this situation with your wife? According to what Genesis told me, Amber is suffering from insomnia. She can’t sleep and has had problems at the law firm,” he commented, arousing Christopher’s curiosity.
-What problems does she have?” he asked immediately.
-Apparently, two of the rookies made serious mistakes in a trial. This is jeopardizing the reputation of the firm, due to their inexperience and, fundamentally, to the lack of timely diligence.
-Find me all the information, to see how I can help her without her finding out, please,” he declared, putting on his suit jacket to go to the mansion, “I’ll be back in the afternoon.
-Don’t worry, I’ll have all the information for you. Look, I already hired who will be in charge of organizing Chris’ party, he called me to ask me about the theme of the party,” Elian consulted.
-My son is sticking with the same theme, Spider-man,” he answered with a smile.
-Okay! I’ll let you know, although I’d like to ask Amber, too.
-You call her, because she won’t answer my calls,” answered Christopher, with displeasure and boredom.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
-She’s still as angry as ever,” he replied, astonished. “My comadre is a tough cookie, she doesn’t give in so easily. Now I understand your dread when it comes to Maggy’s case,” commented Elian, anguished.
-That’s why I dodged and avoided every woman who approached me all the time. I had a hard time getting Amber to forgive me,” he clarified in a weak voice.
-Christopher, what I don’t understand is why, if the kiss happened before you got back together with her, did she get like this? It’s been two months already, separated, although living in the same house -questioned Elian, very worried about them.
-Aha! And what do I do? She’s the woman of my life, I’ve already lost her once and I don’t want to risk it again, I have no choice. I have no choice but to wait until she gets over her rage,” he said, sadly and with much regret.
When Christopher left the office, Elian waited about ten minutes and called Amber.
-Hello, Amber! Sorry to bother you so early, but is Christopher here yet? I’m worried, because he stayed late to work,” he paused briefly and added….
“He fell asleep and when he woke up he went straight there. I didn’t have time to take him, because I have to attend a meeting first thing in the morning.
“Please let me know when he arrives. I’ll thank you, I’m worried about him,” Elian assured.
-Not yet, he hasn’t arrived! What’s more, I was very worried, because he didn’t even send me a message to let me know he wasn’t coming to sleep. And don’t worry Elian, I’ll let you know as soon as he arrives -she answered, feeling a great relief since she was worried, seeing that he didn’t arrive all night long.
-Oh, by the way! I wanted to ask you about Chris’ party, will the theme be Spider-man again? I asked Christopher and he told me that.
-As he told you, he is more of an expert than I am,” was the answer, announcing him that I was coming.
-Ok! Then I’ll leave you, I’m more relaxed to know that he arrived well, have a happy day,” he declared, hoping that they would really make up.
-Thank you and the same to you! -she said, hanging up the call and looking at Christopher who was going to the stairs.
(***)
-Christopher! Are you going to have breakfast?” she asked, surprised, because he didn’t even say hello.
-No! What I want is to sleep! I wanted to work late, but I got sleepy and fell asleep on my desk. Don’t worry, I’m fine,” he assured her, with a dull and tired look, continuing his ascent up the stairs to his room.
Amber felt hurt and regretful. She was sorry for what she was doing to her marriage, knowing that Rocio always sought to separate them. However, remembering the kiss again, she felt jealous and angry.
She had only confided this problem to Genesis, her friend, who could no longer find anything to say to her to make her change her attitude. However, Amber remained in the same stubborn and stubborn position, without being convinced by her pleas.
In the end, she waited a prudent time and went up to the room he occupies, without making any noise. Seeing that he was asleep, exhausted and a little haggard, she felt sorry for him. Besides, it seemed that in these two months, he had lost some weight.
She went out and closed the door carefully. She went to her room, where she called her friend Genesis and unburdened herself to her.
-It hurt me so much to see Chris like that, emaciated, exhausted and sad. I hadn’t looked at his face for days, because we stopped even eating together,” she admitted regretfully.
-I told you days ago, that I saw Christopher very emaciated and I even think he has lost weight. This has hit him hard,” said her friend, feeling empathy for him.
-And what about me?” she said angrily, “Do you think it doesn’t hurt me?
“I’m used to him making love to me, waking me up with kisses, bathing me, feeding me from his own mouth? -she confessed, sadly.
“Anyway, there are so many things, Genesis. I feel like I’m missing everything, not being close to him,” she stated, letting her tears run down her cheeks again.
-But, it was you, Amber,” her friend replied, “who took him out of the room, who separated him from you and suddenly even from the children. Because I know from Elian, he’s in the office all day.
“Girlfriend, the staff has been muttering and complaining for days because he spends all day there, he doesn’t even go out to eat and he’s constantly grumpy.
-God!!! The kids ask me about him. Christopher, he leaves very early, before dawn and arrives very late at night, when they are already asleep -I cry silently- I don’t know what to do, friend?
-According to what Elian told me, he is hurt, but convinced that he won’t do anything to upset you. So he’ll wait until your anger passes.
“So if you’re waiting for him to come after you, he won’t,” Genesis assured her, to motivate her to do something.
-“It’s not easy! Because just the thought of him kissing her and getting turned on by another woman makes me furious.
-I remember you once told me that one of the promises you made to each other when you got back was to seek the truth first, listening to the other, before sentencing him, words more, words less, something like that, you told me,” her friend reminded her.
-True, Genesis! But I can’t control this jealousy, it makes me furious to imagine him kissing someone else.
-He told you clearly, Amber,” Genesis insisted, “he didn’t kiss her,” it was she who kissed him.
-Yes, but he let her! -she added angrily.
-Oh, my friend! With that stubbornness, you are going to lose your marriage. Christopher, from what you yourself have told me, is a very passionate, ardent and hot man. At any moment, those who are waiting for you to fall, will console him.
-Do you think so? -she asked fearfully.
-I’m sure! -announced Genesis.

Amber was very worried about her friend’s last comment. For this reason, calculating that Christopher would be awake, she took the children to his room, so that they could see him.
Knock, knock! Knock, knock!
-Yes?” he asked, opening the door wrapped in a towel from the waist down.
Christopher was bare-chested and still wet, because he was coming out of the shower. He smiled at the sight of his children who excitedly shouted “daddy”, which broke down any wall of resistance.
Amber, for her part, had a smile even in her eyes as she enjoyed the scene of her children happy with their father. Besides, being disturbed by his adorable physique.
-Can you have a snack with us? -she interjected, making use of her charms, with him.
-Yes, of course! Let me get dressed,” he begged, grabbing his clothes from the bed and going into the bathroom to get dressed.
-Daddy, are you grounded?” asked little Chris, walking behind him and entering the bathroom with his father. Meanwhile, Amber stayed in the room arranging her daughter’s sprouts, listening to what her son was saying.
-No, my love, why do you say that? -Christopher asked his son.
-Because one of my little friends, in karate, said that when his mother punished his father, he slept in the guest room and that’s how you are,” clarified his son, looking at his mother.
-This is temporary! I promise,” he replied, raising his right hand in an oath. Looking at Amber, who was also not taking her eyes off him, regretting this separation, for so long.
-But my little friend said that after this, his mom and dad got divorced! Daddy, I’m a big boy now,” he said, “Please answer my question! Are you and Mommy getting divorced?
Once little Chris asked the question and his voice broke, about to cry, his father picked him up. He hugged him and Amber ran to them, convinced that she was the one to blame for this situation, for which her son was suffering, without saying anything.
-No, no, my love! We are not getting divorced,” Christopher answered, dismayed.
He kissed him and hugged him again to calm him down, looking disdainfully at his image in the mirror. This look was also captured by Amber, who was strongly hurt by this gesture. She wrapped her hands around his waist and hugged him tightly.
-No, son! I promise it won’t be like this,” Amber exclaimed, resting her head on Christopher’s naked torso, on the other side, letting her tears flow.
-Don’t cry, my love! -asked Christopher to Amber, hugging her tightly against his body, looking for her lips, which he kissed very softly, in front of his son.
-For my stupid jealousy, I was emotionally affecting my children and I didn’t realize it.
“I was so selfish! I only thought about what I felt,” she confessed, crying and regretful…
