Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 14

-They lived, I think I'm in love, at last, after so long, I found love, just at this time when I have so many problems. -Angelo, I'm glad, the best time to get love is now, it will never come later, do I know the lucky one, is it me, master?

-No Vivían, you know that we are friends, boss and assistant, that we made the mistake of being overconfident due to loneliness and desire, because you are a very beautiful woman and no man would resist your charms, what happens is that we knew each other since we were little and we were friends first, that we let ourselves be carried away by our impulses like sheep was something very different.

-That's what you suppose and that doesn't mean it's true, if I hadn't felt something more than friendship for you, I wouldn't have gone into the seas of your sheets, now we're here alone, me like a fool waiting for you to tear my dress and, on the other hand, you throw that bomb of cruelty at me.

-I never meant to hurt you, for me you're my best friend and more than that.

-Yes, of course, Angelo, more than a friend who couldn't even become a girlfriend, let alone a wife.

-They lived, we both agreed that we wouldn't complicate things, I really don't want to hurt you, I'd like to make you happy, although I can't do it the way you want me to.

-Angelo, you never think about me, about my feelings, the truth is that you have hurt me these days, you don't know how I suffered imagining how you made her yours a thousand times, I don't even think that you went into the sea, because you didn't leave her room. The truth I cried silently, I locked myself in the bathroom, avoiding the boys to see me, being the boss, I have to look strong, and I am, but even armadillos have a soft heart.

-I'm sorry, I didn't think my joy was your sadness, I was supposed to celebrate with you this new sensation that I hope one day you will experience, I was hoping for a congratulation or a blessing, instead, I replace discouraging walls of spite and unreason. -Angelo, well I congratulate you, I hope you marry her, have many children and live happily ever after and I'll be eaten by a dog, I'll fall in disgrace to a rubbish dump, I'll die alone, choked by my pain.

-I'll die alone, I'll die alone, I'll die alone, I'll choke on my sorrow.

-I'm at this crossroads because I'm open to it.

-Come on, don't be a victim, you are an empowered woman and that is one of the things I like most about you.

-Well, Angelo, darling, anyway, we can go on as we see, I'll make you a very special bachelor party and then we'll see what happens, if the water keeps running even when the river calms down.

-I'll live, your imagination flies and light speed, I'd better get you to give me the report of my enclosure.

-We've found the place where they were hiding, we've found the tracks in the computers we've installed, it's an orchestration of this danger and they actually had in their possession the files of the Ximene hill, photos of their cessation, We had two bejes, but we exterminated them all and burned the place, erasing all evidence, I believe that their enemy is out of danger.

-Do I think or are you sure?

-I'm sure about this side, I don't know about the other, her wife has a jewellery company and they have an emerald mine concession in Meripi, that's another level of reluctance.

-Angelo, fortunately you are very cute because you tell very nice jokes, and by the way, your grandfather came and mentioned that your wife is looking for you so that you sign the divorce papers once and for all, I just don't understand the reason for you to avoid those crumbs, let's go! Close that circle once and for all, you won't be able to marry Ximene if you are in a marriage, that's bigemie, in many countries it's considered a crime and besides, Don Joseph is the one who's going to hang you from your things. -Don't be so dramatic Vivían, let's remember our past with joy and treasure the changes that are coming, with your beauty it won't be difficult for you to get your prince charming, you just have to open yourself to that possibility. -I'm at this crossroads because I'm open to it.

-Come on, don't play the victim, you're an empowered woman and that's one of the things I like most about you.

-Well, Angelo, darling, you're not married yet anyway, we can continue as we are, I'll give you a very special bachelor party and then we'll see what happens, if the water keeps running even when the river is channelled. -Vivian, your imagination is flying at light speed, I want you to give me the report of my assignment.

-Of course boss, well, we found the sewer where they were hiding, we found the clues in the computers that we seized, it was a highly dangerous organisation and indeed they had in their possession Ximena's car plates, photos of her house, as well as tracking videos and other things, they gave us a fight, it was a shootout of about an hour, we had two casualties, but we exterminated them all and burned the place, erasing all evidence, I think that her lover is out of danger. -I think or are you sure?

-I'm sure on this side, I don't know about the other, her family has a jewellery company and they have a concession for an emerald mine in Maripi, that's another level of quarrels.

-Yes, of course it's complicated, and I suppose you've worked out what happened to the fallen in combat.

-Of course, I took care of all the funeral expenses and I sent economic compensation to the widows and relatives, most of them are from Italy, we should get people from here to simplify those procedures.

You know it's complicated to get reliable people, there must be some here, it's just difficult to replace them, lest a policeman infiltrate us or one of our enemies, or worse, my ex-wife.

-Angelo, fortunately you're very cute because you tell really bad jokes, by the way, your grandfather called and mentioned that your wife is looking for you to sign the divorce papers, I don't understand why you're dodging those papers, come on! Close that circle once and for all, you can't marry Ximena if you're in a marriage, that's bigamy, in many countries it's considered a crime and besides, Don Joseph is capable of hanging you by your little things.

-I swear Vivían, it's an extremely complex matter, this is twisting my guts, I don't know what to do, sometimes I want to run away without direction.

-Now you're the victim, poor little Angelo, with so much money, power and beauty, how you suffer.

-I assure you Vivían, many times I've wanted to leave this life, to disintegrate these networks, the only thing that stops me is my grandfather Joseph, with his nonsense about the family business created by his predecessors, that I shouldn't, that I would leave many people without work, but look what happened to those two guys, I have faith that one of these days I will dissolve this organisation or I will give it to someone else, to Luis or to you, and I will dedicate myself to what I like.

-Angelo and for sure you know what it is, you would be able to leave a life of luxury to be a teacher and a boxer, what a solid combination, you should take a course in psychology, to give and receive blows.

-That must be it, I had asked for permission to be absent from university classes for a few days, I had even found a replacement, I'd better go, giving classes calms me down, sharing my knowledge helps me to cope with so many charges of conscience that I carry on my shoulders day after day.

Don't pretend to be a martyr, cruel Angelo, you have never killed innocent people, every mother's son who has been shot by our bullets is because they have deserved every ounce of lead; by the way, I would like to enrol in your classes, just to sit in front of you in this mini-skirt until you notice that I am not wearing pants, just like at this very moment.

-I'm worried about you, this city is very cold and you might catch a cold or something, bye, I'd better go to college.
