All Chapters of Perfect Lie: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

+I woke up, confused and groggy - the effect of drinking too much. Why did I have to drink more than three bottles of vodka? It took me a while to realize that I was on the couch. I sat up, grimaced, and held my throbbing head. I deserved it, but it still sucked, especially since my life was hanging by a thread. Carefully, I opened my eyes and was surprised to see a bottle of water and some paracetamol pills on the table in front of me. I took them, swallowed two pills, and drank the whole bottle of water. I locked myself in the study because I wanted to be alone and gather the courage to enter the room I would be sharing with her. Hmm... it seems like someone helped me get into the room, but they couldn't get me into bed. They did leave a nice touch, though, covering me with a small blanket. I collapsed onto the carpet, and I honestly don't feel like getting up - I'm sure my brain would spill out of my mouth, and my eyes would pop out. I don't think I'll be going to the company to

+Entering the room, I start pacing back and forth, feeling flushed and overwhelmed. That kiss has affected me so much. Oh my goodness! I thought I could control myself, but now that I'm in the room, I feel lost. I must be completely insane! If it weren't for his grandmother, I'm sure I would have given in. I can't control what my body feels. Noooo... I promised myself I wouldn't be with any man, wouldn't mix work with sex, and definitely wouldn't indulge in so many kisses. What am I doing? Lucero was right. She warned me that my blessed and desperate body could take over at any moment. "Is everything okay?" he asks seconds after I entered, "my grandmother is worried." Is he following me? No, I requested to come alone, not for him to accompany me. "Umm, no, not at all." "My grandmother advised me to accompany you and not to leave you for anything in the world," he says after closing the door, "you should have waited for me." "No, it was better that I left, but now that you're h

"Go ahead," she says seriously, crossing her arms. "Where's the sheet, since it's clean?" I point to the side of the bed, where the white sheet and quilt are stained with blood, and now I don't know how to wash them, since I'm too embarrassed for anyone to see. "I don't want anyone to know, I'm too ashamed," I give a heavy sigh. "Lucero, I lost my virginity, and he found out after it was all over, imagine how hysterical he got, as if he had committed a crime." "Oh my God!" She coughs as if she's choking on her own saliva, and it's logical that this confession is enough to make you die. "I lost my virginity," I bite my lower lip. "I'm not going to deny that your boss, who is my husband, is amazing in bed and I enjoyed that huge animal today," I gasp. My skin tingles as I recall that unforgettable moment. "Dirty!" She's enjoying herself, and now I'm waiting for her to tell me, "I told you so!" and that it's not a sin to be with a man and that they're not a complete distraction from

++GISELA+ I get out of the taxi, saying "thank you and have a good day" as I close the door. Taking a step forward, standing in front of my law firm, I let out a deep sigh. "Oh my God." I have come to the company to talk to my ex-boss again, I have to insist that I can no longer continue coming to work and that I am too grateful for the opportunity he gave me. Nonsense! I am here because that man has not stopped asking when I will be free from the commitment to work. At this moment, I had no intentions of coming, but taking advantage of the fact that he was not at home and that grandma went to her daughter's house, it was as if everything fell into place, giving me the opportunity to leave. Although the CEO does not speak to me, I have to fulfill the contract. Well... I don't want to remember what happened yesterday and how two strangers, full of shame or questions, slept in the same room, swallowing what they had to say to each other. You could say that both of us were complet

+Noooo, I'm dead, what am I doing? The more I walk, the more I mess up. I can't keep my legs closed for another day. Losing my virginity wasn't enough to stop me from sleeping with him again. And once again, no condom! That's not all, I'm a sinner, I don't have God's forgiveness. How could I do it inside a car with the driver right there? "Okay, now that we're alone, you can tell me what's going on. Why did the boss suddenly call me? I want to know why we're in my apartment," she enters the room that was once mine. He decided that at the last minute. Apparently, it's better here than in the apartment he bought. He even had the nerve to call Lucero to be with me. "Lucero, I need you, please give me that pill again. God, what am I going to do!" I start pacing back and forth, the idea of getting pregnant terrifies me. "Not that you're asking, but I just did it in the car. Please, you have to help me. I don't want to get pregnant." "Don't fuck with me... Gisela, once is understandabl
