Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 20

Hey Ximena, I don't understand how we ended up on this cruise.

-Mia friend, what's wrong with you, now it seems that you're the one who doesn't remember, remember how many tricks we did to avoid Angelo at university.

-I remember when we went around the university building to avoid him and we met him face to face.

-Yes, that was a very embarrassing situation.

-You should be used to it by now, like when we fell in the mine, that was crazy, I even ate mud, I still haven't been able to get rid of that taste, maybe with a packet of crisps from my favourite delivery. -Oh Mia, don't tell me you got the drop on the snack packet delivery boy!

-It was hard, I got annoyed, I called him to my house with the excuse of an order, I made him follow me, I put on a mini skirt and I looked for several excuses to bend down, trying to provoke him and other strategies, but nothing helped me, but then I invited him a beer so he would be uninhibited and he downed it in one sip, I invited him a meat in sauce that I was making for my lunch, the poor guy got stuck while I put on my high heels, he even reminded me of your clumsiness. -What a bad girl you are, and what a bitch too, and what happened?

-He went to the bathroom, he had to stick his fingers in to take out the piece of meat that he tried to eat whole, he started to get anxious, he was worried about finishing delivering the day's orders, he had to go to the clients, they might steal his car, in the end I decided to let him go, I forgot to lock the door and when I went out, my miniskirt mysteriously came off, the poor guy's eyes almost popped out, I turned around and pounced on him, at first he told me that he couldn't, that another day, and then his intentions became what I wanted, We gave him hard, what vitality, nothing to do with the old man from Hawaii, of course that man knew a few things, we had a good time, only when we left my house his tired face turned to anguish, because his biggest fear materialized, his cart was gone, the poor boy didn't cry because I was there, we called the police, his bosses, he had to punch himself in the face to say that he was almost killed for stealing it, the complicated thing is that it was already too late, so despite my testimony his bosses fired him, poor boy, I'm going to give him some work.

-The boy will never forget that afternoon.

-He brought me roses and a letter with a poem that I didn't even read.

-So you ate it and became disenchanted.

-It's not that, he was incredible, it's just that he doesn't have the appeal of his car anymore.

-ha-ha-ha-ha -his brand new float of snack packets and did the police replace him?

-Not yet, by the way, Ximena, what did the handsome Inspector Das tell you?

-He confirmed my suspicions, that there is someone interested in sabotaging the company and in making me do badly, I suspect my uncle.

-Ximena, and maybe it's not your disgusting uncle, but your enigmatic husband, how do you know?

-That's why we're here, I told you several times, but because you were looking at those handsome lifeguards you didn't pay attention to me.

-Wait, it's not my fault that they're so delicious, Ximena, tell me again without so many entanglements.

-It's that some jewellery that was stolen from my parents, Detective Das discovered that they were going to be auctioned on this cruise and he thinks they might have some pitas, it's just that this man is very mysterious.

-You mean clues, that's what investigators do.

-Yes, we have to buy them, whatever it costs, we'll buy what belongs to me, that's an abhorrent thing to do, but we have to do it.

-Well doll, let's get our wallets and our charms ready, suddenly I'll rise up a real sheikh or a real prince.

...

On auction night, the main hall sparkled with the beauty of Mia and of course Ximena, which overshadowed the bidding treasures, making many wish they were included.

The next item is pre-Columbian jewellery, emeralds, oil drops, the best in the world, the bidding starts at four thousand dollars.

-I'll give them," Ximena started and another mysterious bearded man offered six thousand.

-Ten thousand," offered Mia wanting to kill the deal, but showing a need to acquire them.

-Twenty thousand," offered a fat bearded man in a sultan's hat.

-Please wait, those jewels belonged to my family, please gentlemen, let me buy them," said Ximena in a loud voice.

-Madam, this is an auction, not a charity centre," mentioned an obese lady with gold glasses.

-Thirty thousand," shouted Mia, silencing the auditorium.

-Thirty going once, thirty going twice, did anyone say more, -no one bid more, so the closer sentenced with the hammer, -sold to the beautiful girl, I'd love to put them on her.

To Mia, the jewels didn't seem like a big deal, to have paid that much, just because they mattered so much to her friend.

...

From a private suite Angelo watched the spectacle of the auction, he was tempted to intervene by giving her the necklace because Ximena seemed to care so much, she was suspicious of the bearded men and her intentions were complicated by the fact that they began to follow them everywhere and tried to break into her rooms to steal it. -I need to talk to her, I have to warn her.

-Sir, that would be bad, she would be suspicious and upset.

-something occurs to me, I need to create the circumstances for a chance encounter.

...

Ximena, don't turn around, I think that's Angelo, it can't be, I told you not to turn around!

-Yes, that's him, what's he doing here, is he following me?

-Ximena and Mia, what a nice surprise, definitely what a small world.

-What a coincidence, Angelo, it's always a pleasure to see you," Mia said, biting her lips.

-It's not a coincidence, Angelo, you're following me, you're stalking me, what are you up to, that scares me.

-Ximena, you're wrong, you're misunderstanding me, it's really a nice coincidence, I'd better invite you to dinner so we can talk calmly.

-I'm sorry Angelo, but I can't accompany them because I have an appointment with Sheikh Al Rayan.

Really Mia, you don't like married men and you're going on a date with one who has six, I guess he's looking for one for every day of the week, suddenly you'll be his Sunday.

-I was already falling in love with that man, although the only thing I understood him was when he gave me jewellery.

-Please, don Angelo, leave us alone, we don't want..." Ximena was stunned when she saw the man called Carlos, who managed the mine and was also a member of the board of shareholders of the jewellery factory, and without saying anything she went to follow him.

-Wait," Angelo grabbed his forearm, before he left.

-Angelo, let me go, I saw someone very strange, don't interfere. -He said, letting go.

-Wait Ximena, you're in grave danger.

-Yes, of course it's because of you, Professor D. that's not from Doug of flour, but from "Danger" danger in English.

-Please Ximena, that's absurd, they call me D because of my grades, that's the grade I impose the most because I'm very demanding, come with me, I'll show you something very important, that I'm sure you'll be interested in.

-Come on Ximena, by the way we don't hide that lying Sheikh, don't worry, I will protect you from all evil.

-Mia, but you are evil incarnate.
