Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 18

In the surveillance room the girls were scared, while Angelo was banging on the walls saying: -That dog, I know him, he's Max's man, damn you, I'm going to kill you all.

Ximena looked at him increasing her fear, maybe Angelo besides being her husband, who was up to something, was also a ruthless killer, he could be one of those crazy people who have several personalities, under that beautiful face lived a legion of poles, that reaffirmed to her that she had to separate from him, to get away from him, she had to put a lot of land between the two of them, she could suddenly sell the shares of the company to go with her parents and sister to the most remote place on the planet to raise goats or kangaroos, change her identity, dress as a man, paint her beard, or anything as long as this multifaceted man couldn't replace her.

-Ready, my love, I've done my part, now it's your turn.

-No, Angelo, I don't remember anything, I promised you something.

-Remember that you have to go to dinner with me.

-I wish they'd blackmail me to have dinner in a fancy restaurant," smiled Mia, her green eyes sparkling with mischief, and she bit her lips.

-Well, the three of us are going," Ximena proposed, trying not to be alone.

-I'm tired of being the nosy one, it's uncomfortable to see them kissing, it makes me blush and blush, I'd better go and accept the invitation to Sheikh Al Rayan, to see if he scratches me, let him tell me how married life is with seven women.

-It must be fun, even when they start to talk," joked Angelo, looking at them to see if it would make them laugh.

-I'd better go, I hope that sheikh has some good jokes that make me dry up laughing. - And Mia left, heading to the Emir's place, while Angelo and Ximena went to the cruise ship's luxury restaurant. -Ximena, you can order whatever you want, or if you prefer, I'll order for you.

-How about Don Angelo, if I'm the one ordering for both of us.

-I agree, but please don't order traditional oriental food, I swear I'm not capable of eating rats or dogs.

-I wouldn't be able to either, although that's not traditional, I hear it's because of overpopulation that they've had to increase the culinary possibilities.

-I don't know, sometimes what is unpleasant for some people can be a delicacy for others, for example stuffed meat, have you eaten it?

-Of course Angelo, it's delicious, humanity owes a debt to the man who invented the idea of stuffing pig intestines with rice, blood and peas, it's delicious.

-That Ximena, there are many people who don't eat pork and haven't tasted a piece of that delicacy, if they tried it with an open mind they would surely throw their beliefs out of the window.

-Yes, Angelo, how about eating dog sweat is a delicacy.

-I'd have to try it, though you don't know when you're eating sausage.

-I can't imagine the handsome, elegant Italian with green eyes and an athletic body, dressed in a tie, tasting a piece of salami with a beer on the table.

-Ximena, I've done it several times, with lemon, but it's not the strangest thing I've eaten, in Spain I tasted barnacles and sea urchins, they're eaten raw, but they're very delicious, also in Bucaramanga I ate ants.

-Angelo, I can tell you like to try everything.

-Ximena is that I don't like to refuse the food they give me, except once in Mongolia, where the table h as a small hole in the middle, they put the head of a live monkey, two children have it under the table, the leader arrives and with a knife he opens its head and they start to eat its brains, I almost fainted because I was so terrified, I couldn't eat that, I didn't even try, I had to say that my religion didn't allow it to avoid them getting upset.

-Angelo, sometimes it is convenient to have a flexible religion.

-Why do you say that?

-It says in the Bible that you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, and look at you, trying to seduce a defenceless married woman.

-I'm sure you're not helpless at all, that slap the other day still hurts, you should be a boxer, you'd knock everyone out with one punch.

-I practice jiujitsu sometimes, I guess you know that, if you keep following me around.

-No Ximena, most of our encounters have just been coincidences, it's just that the universe wants us to be together.

-Angelo, you should tell me the truth once and for all, stop being a hypocrite," he said slapping the table,

-Ximena, I swear that sometimes I don't understand you, you honour the saying "who understands women?

I think that's a two-way channel, I wish you would talk to me straight, you don't need to lie to me anymore, you should tell me what you're up to, I already know everything.

-Dear Ximena, it's really been a series of coincidental events, the truth is that I'm very interested in you.

-Angelo, I don't know what to think, it's true that I'm interested in you, but you intrigue me a lot, I wish I knew what your true intentions are.

-Ximena of my heart, my only interest is to love you for the rest of my life, to live a dream life with you.

-I know that you are....

A beautiful woman with black hair, brown eyes, a mole near her full lips and the body of a lingerie model passes by the table and focuses her gaze on Angelo as if nothing else existed, at the risk of tripping over something, she decides to stop, saying: -Angelo, is that you, yes, yes it is, how lucky I am, -the very bandit threw herself at him kissing his mouth.

-Speaking of coincidences," muttered Ximena angrily, trying to get up, holding back the urge to run away.

-Hi, Catherine, this is Ximena, this is my wife," he said, removing her from his mouth and pointing to his companion who was about to run away.

-Hello, what a shame, please excuse me, I just tripped, my name is Catherine, I'm Angelo's girlfriend, sorry, ex-girlfriend," he said, stretching out his hand with a hypocritical smile.

-Nice to meet you, Miss Catherine, you're in luck, you found your ex, it's possible that you can get back together, second parts are sometimes better, like the exterminator, second part, it's the best of all those fifty movies and series, by the way as that robot said "hasta la vista bebes", I'm leaving so you can remember old times. -said Ximena getting up, with a red face full of anger.

-No, wait Ximena, we still have to talk about that important matter, look, with Catherine we were boyfriend and girlfriend for a long time, we just stopped seeing each other because our jobs and commitments didn't allow us to see each other.

-Yes Ximena, Angelo and I couldn't flow, because of the distance, it turned into a telephone romance, I was really about to give it all up, but I run a big investment company and that demands a lot of time, besides a lot of jobs depend on it. -That's why I'm leaving you, this is an opportunity for you to resume relationships,

-No, Ximena, wait," Angelo grabbed her forearm, staring at her, "don't go, let's sort things out.

-Ximena, you are very lucky that Angelo chose you, with all due respect, I feel very flattered that by leaving me, he got himself such a beautiful woman, much better than me, that's why I better leave you alone, I'm leaving.

-I'm leaving too, Angelo, we'll talk later, when you've decided to be honest with me.

-Wait Ximena, you didn't even order anything, if you want you can order fringe or something exotic?

-No thanks, so much coincidence has made me lose my appetite, or well, I just want a soda to get rid of this bad taste in my mouth and this slutty smell that your little friend left behind.

In a corner Catherine was watching, dead jealous, she couldn't conceive that Angelo had another one for whom he hadn't even seen her cleavage, she remembered the samples they had given her from a pharmaceutical company, a new treatment for female frigidity, her brain was working at light speed, she looked for a waiter and said to him:

-Mr. Maitre d', I have a business for you, do you want to earn some extra money?

-What's my turn to do, is it my turn to take my clothes off?

-Look at that table over there where I was, that's my friend who has a birthday and we want to give her a surprise, look, this is an aphrodisiac, look, just pour it in her drink without anyone knowing," and he put a wad of banknotes in his pocket. The waiter, guided by greed, did it that way, and Ximena drank it before leaving, looking at Angelo with contempt.

Catherine glided across the room, avoiding Angelo's gaze.

-Wait Ximena, please, I feel very sorry, I just want to tell you that, I better warn you, Angelo is not what you think, we never broke up and besides he's married, I just want to protect you, it's a matter of female solidarity, do you understand me? -Yes, of course, Catherine, I'm the wife, please, I don't feel well, could you accompany me to my room?

-Of course, Ximena is this way, how come you are his wife, in that case you would be the second one, the first one is in Sicily.

-I'm the one who was in Sicily, the one who got married alone, hey, I don't think it's around here.

I heard about the bride alone, it's very sad, let's go this way, it's a shortcut.

Her slow and confused steps caused by that experimental drug were guided by Catherine, who took her to another bedroom, where her cousin was.

-Hi Ben, I brought you one just the way you like it, do me a favour and give it to him hard.

-Oh, how delicious, she's just like she wants, did you bring her from a reign?

-Yes, and you're the one who's going to crown her.

-Too bad I drank too much, it doesn't matter, I'll just put in a few lines of dust and I'll be like Popeye the sailor, as I'm on a boat I'll keep the nickname.
