Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 94

He lay crying on the floor, he didn't believe this would happen to him, the feeling of impotence shook him, he hit the floor staining it with his blood. Ximena didn't even see him, she concentrated on the exhaust. The motorbike sped down the highways towards the airport.

What?... Okay, ... All right, ... Okay. Diego braked the bike to tell his co-pilot something. -Linda, apparently, they closed the airport, never mind this, we had already foreseen it, we should go to plan B. We hired a yacht in case this happened. The motorbike turned and changed course. In a few minutes they arrived at an old dock, where on top of a small boat, her sister Emily greeted her with her two children in a double pram.

-Hurry up, we have to leave immediately. -Emily's boyfriend loomed over the bow, waving as if swatting flies.

They were stuffed into a small compartment where it was very difficult to keep the children quiet. Darkness reigned for hours, they grew tired of sleeping. At one point they couldn't stand the hunger, they couldn't stand it, they tried to get out, and the door seemed to be welded shut. They screamed and it was as if only they heard it, desperation invaded them, they felt that the air could not enter them, Ximena hugged her children, she sat in a corner to cry. Emily could not stand it, the situation gave her a heart attack and she lay on the floor.

After a few hours or perhaps seconds of panic, a line of light on the wall widened, illuminating their hearts. A silhouette was revealed.

Are you all right? Sorry for the trip, we were accosted several times by police and mercenaries. Apparently they're looking for them under every stone. -Diego spoke differently.

Please help Emily! -Ximena shouted worriedly.

I'm going to give her first aid," the policeman boyfriend came out of nowhere and started massaging her chest and giving her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

-It can't be, you're going to kidnap us. Emily regained consciousness, formulating this idea that occurred to her in the lock-up.

-No,

miss, you're wrong. We couldn't open the door, we were under a lot of surveillance and we almost got killed by pirates. -Diego showed them a cut on his abdomen and they could see bruises on his face. Holy cow! I'm ashamed that this happened to them because of me. -Ximena blushed and lowered her face.

-Don't worry, ma'am. -Diego answered in a dry voice. -I didn't do it for you, what I want is to get revenge on Angelo. I would like to be able to see his face of despair at being abandoned. Ha, ha, ha.

-I did it for my girlfriend, I'm very much in love with her and I would do anything for her. -The policeman kissed Emily, lifting her off the floor.

-Let's move, we have a farm in the mountains of Colombia, we have to follow in a rental car. She should be here by now. -Diego put his hands on his hips and twisted his nose, staring at the empty road.

-Father, we can't wait. We'd better take a taxi to the airport and catch a plane.

-It's not smart, that way we'd leave a trail.

-You're forgetting that I'm a policeman here and I can get us on a military flight. -Emily's boyfriend was very helpful and knew several generals I could ask that favour of.

-You should have said so sooner. Diego stopped a taxi, where they squeezed into it, were driven to a military base where they were loaded onto a helicopter, which took about two hours to arrive at a two-storey house surrounded by miles of forest. This place is perfect, we'll stay here for a while. -Ximena breathed in the fresh air.

-Sister, that won't be possible, I can't stay here, I have to continue studying and I have to keep an eye on the company. -Emily raised her shoulders and twisted her mouth.

-I have to go and report to the command, I don't have any more days of leave left. -Emily's boyfriend put his hand to his forehead.

Does that mean I'll be all alone in this out-of-the-way place? -Ximena looked up at the sky, felt the icy breeze blowing through the mountains.

-Of course not. I'll stay to keep you company, as well as the cleaning and cooking staff, and we have the support of the boys from the mountains, in case that a*****e Angelo replaces us. -Diego greeted some armed men who were arriving in several vans. Are they guerrillas or paramilitaries? -Ximena was horrified, she was about to run and hide in the house.

-The way things are going, they'll be the same thing, and in the near future they'll be in the government. -Diego moved away to greet the commander who was lowering the glass to greet him.

-Señor Diego, it is a pleasant surprise to see you again in these lands. -The commander greeted him and ended up spitting, almost falling on his shoe.

-Commander, I love this region, I was born here. -Diego detailed him, he remembered that this bearded guy, who wore designer glasses, gold chains similar to those he had seen on an Arab sheik and on his wrist he wore a special edition Rolex. Even the Italian shoes contradicted what he preached, his insults to developed countries, to commerce and to the upper classes. You could sum him up as a king of the jungle, who proclaimed contempt for what he himself was.

-If I remember, my father worked for his father on this farm. That's why he liked it so much. -The commander smiled, showing a diamond embedded in a molar.

-Yes, you were kind enough to lend it to me, well, in exchange for the juicy collaboration I donated to your organisation. -Diego was getting annoyed with this man.

-That's what I was coming to tell him. It turns out that what we charge you is very little to protect Don Angelo's wife. Don't look so surprised, I may not be educated, I may only know how to shoot, but I have assistants who are educated and they found out through those apps where you can see women with strings on, that the lady blew off her wedding. Although that gentleman is no match for us, but I guess it won't be easy to fight him. His good reputation precedes him. The commander showed him a late-model mobile phone, which rolled up, Diego had never seen one of those before.

-Well, let me know the figure and we'll negotiate it. It must be fixed, I don't think it's fair that every day they ask me for more. -Diego furrowed his brow.

-Unfair what your ancestors did to my ancestors, they came and took away their lands, they exchanged gold for mirrors, that is injustice. -The captain raised his voice and got out of his truck, showing his prominent belly, which is why he was wearing an unbuttoned camouflage.

-Sir, with all due respect that happened 500 years ago in the conquest of America. -Diego stepped back a little and noticed other men getting out of the vans with rifles in their hands.

-Yes, but I found out about it a few years ago. That's why I took it upon myself to collect the ancestral debt. -The commander laughed in his face, then looked at him a few centimetres away.

-Sir, I'm sure that you are very fair, let me know and I'll see how I'll paint you. -Diego didn't move, he had a hard time resisting the urge to slam his fist in his mouth.

-That's if I'm very fair, now I'll send you a message with the request. I'm glad to see you again, make yourself at home. -The commander spat on the ground, pulled out a pistol, fired into the air, unloaded the pistol, spat again and drove off in the van with his entire entourage.

-He spat again and drove off in the truck with his whole entourage. "That bastard, this land belonged to my family until this plague drove us out the hard way, it's unfair that now I have to pay them even for their laughter, which by the way is horrible. He's got bad breath that will melt the diamonds in his molars. -Diego commented with resentment and in his mind he remembered the night he and his parents had to flee this beautiful land.

Emily and the policeman left in the helicopter after a tearful farewell.
