Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 86

-Erik, show up, we're already late, please, we're already ready and they say that women are the ones who take the longest to get ready. -Ximena wore a beautiful black dress, it fitted her curvaceous body, and if it wasn't for the fact that her breasts had increased in size, you wouldn't have noticed that she had given birth to two beautiful children.

-We're going to be late for our friend Liz's wedding. I don't understand what she's doing in the bathroom. Emily spoke, she was dressed in a bright red mini-skirt, she chose it so as not to be overshadowed by Ximena, although now it made her uncomfortable because when she walked it rode up, revealing her buttocks, and on her chest it came down, showing more than it should have. She tried not to laugh, she had already prepared the trap for this cheat. Although they were going to a wedding, it wasn't Liz's, but that o Erik's uncle. Where they would hopefully replace out about the true story of their mysterious tenant.

-I'm coming, I just couldn't tie my tie. -Erik came out wearing a black dinner jacket, looking like a malnourished penguin. -It would be better to stay and watch movies and have a few beers.

-No, sir, we already got engaged, we are the bridesmaids, you can be the ring bearer. -Ximena tried to joke, putting on a long coat, trying to cover a beautiful necklace full of emeralds and to keep warm from the cold of the capital, since that short dress seemed to b painted on her body and the paint was finished without having finished it.

-I think he can't be a page boy, he looks too old for that, but we could put him behind the bride so that she won't regret getting married. -Emily arranged her jewellery, also with emeralds made by her company, and put on another long cloth coat, to avoid the harassing gaze of her companion.

The car picked them up followed by two vans with escorts, although Ximena was not used to them, it was better to avoid calamities. Although she didn't feel safe either, she remembered a piece of news she had heard a long time ago:

-"Emily, I remember a friend of my father's who owned a chain of restaurants. He recommended to my parents that he invest in a robust security scheme, similar to the one that protected him, well, my father listened to him in part, so he hired Mike, a tall and obese bodyguard, he looked like a wall, we called him fat-bodyguard; anyway, the complicated thing was that his own bodyguards were the ones who handed him over to the kidnappers. That was disgusting. Well, he was very good to everyone, he had a foundation for street children and he treated all his employees very well.

-It's envy, sometimes you can't see that someone is doing well in life, it's a saying "when a man carries a lump on his shoulder, there's another one watching him, who also wants to do it". Something like that. I got tangled up. -Emily rambled on while adjusting the side laces of her little panties that were making her uncomfortable.

-It's just that greed is a bottomless monster. It must be that the escorts were offered a lot of money to hand him over, or they were suddenly threatened, that's complex, would be to ask them what reasons they gave when they were captured? -Erik kept adjusting his tie, the knot didn't fit.

-As I recall, they stated that they had lost their way. Some of them were found with money they couldn't justify and others turned up dead. The relatives of the kidnapped man had to pay eight times the ransom. In the end, the businessman escaped and gained the trust of his captors. He gave them English lessons and helped with the work in the camp where he was being held. One night he left in fear, he says that he had to stay for a few days in a lagoon among some reeds where he fed on bugs. He walked through the jungle for a week, eating roots and drinking urine. Luckily he came across an army patrol. Poor man was never the same again, the last I heard he sold what he had left and took his family out of the country. -Ximena almost cried as she told this sad story.

They arrived at the church, a beautiful baroque construction. They both went downstairs and grabbed the arm of Erik, who came out with his head held high, with a smile from ear to ear that as he took in the scenery was closing in on him. Some of the guests were in silent amazement at the sight of him, petrified, their eyes bulging and their mouths wide open.

It can't be, it's Erik! a woman in her fifties, with a shiny grey one-piece dress that wrapped around her like a Christmas tree ball, due to her morbid obesity.

-Girls, we'd better go, I can't deal with this, I think we made a mistake, or did they set me up, this must be a nightmare, it won't take long for my clothes to dissolve. -Erik whispered, his face looked pale, and it seemed as if he was trying to squeeze it through his tie, which felt even tighter.

Six men came out of the church, their foreheads furrowed and their fists ready, one of them stepped forward aggressively, very excited, he shouted: "Get out of here, you're not welcome!

-It's all right, we're leaving now, apparently it was all a mistake. -Erik tried to turn back, but found himself pinned down by his companions who didn't move, they looked as if they had been petrified.

Hold on! I invited him, don't let him leave, please look at him. -An old woman came out from the midst of the women watching the scene.

-Grandmother, you shouldn't have invited him, after all he did, after his disgraceful behaviour. -A young man, judging by his dress, was the groom," replied a young man.

-He is now with one of those women, they look elegant and he had two beautiful babies. I've seen them, I've been to his beautiful house. -Grandma pointed to Ximena, who looked more like a lady. -It's not possible, he who is doesn't stop being one," interrupted a man with a mustache, "remember that this jerk swindled us all.
