Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)

Chapter 154 Maybe, Mrs Devonte?

VICTORIA'S POV ...

I took the slice of the apple in my mouth and watched Alessandro's frowning face under my lashes. For

God's sake, he is angry!

Till the moment he barged into the dark cell and beat the shit out of Manchini, I know half of his rage

was because of me. Since then he did not talk to me for once, yet he has taken care of me all the

while.

I don't know how to start my words at this point. The only thing I know is, he is gonna burst as soon as I

open my mouth. So, I decided to keep quiet.

I heard from Antonio that, when Aless didn't find me and realised the ring was lost, he immediately

asked for help from Alexander Rossi! I mean, the Iquarayon Emperor, actually helped him save me! I

don't know how he is connected to Aless, but it's quite surprising that he helped a member of Edwards.

Antonio was surprised too.

When Aless reached the place where we were kept, they found Maximo with his men there. Well, both

of them reached out at the same time to save their loved ones.

However, I am really curious, how he actually convinced The great Rossi to help him both times! Once

in the competition of Adornet Art Gallery and now this time. I will ask him, but not now, of course.

Currently, we are all in Diane's house. Diane Martinez, my mother. Biological one. It's quite surprising

for me that, Diane Martinez, that means my Biological mother was once the Mafia leader and now, her

adopted son, Mario Martinez. She didn't get married after our Biological father died.

She still loves him and that really mesmerised me.

After giving me the last slice of apple, Aless left with Trey. As soon as he left, I heard,

"Is he mad for some reason?" It was Christine. She is also sitting a little away from me with her fiancé,

Maximo Lombardi.

I know this man. He is one of the royals of London. Quiet a famous and prestigious man. But, seemed

a little psycho to me. I don't know but he seemed pretty obsessed and domineering toward Christine,

yet softly handling her.

I pursed my lips and nodded, knowing how obvious Alessandro's behaviour is. "Yeah, I guess so.

Well... It's my fault in the first place. If I am not wrong, I know why he is angry." I sighed.

Maybe because I have hidden things from him. I couldn't find any proper reason other than that. And

honestly, I also know I was wrong.

"Oh..." Christine parted her lips. "But, he loves you enough." She complimented and I nodded with a

smile. "Yeah, he does."

I watched Maximo silently standing up and going away with the food tray. He looked like he never did

these things before. His aura hits differently.

It was like in his eyes, only one person exists and that is his fiancé.

As he was gone, I turned to Christine, who was staring at her fiancé's back.

She was quiet and seemed in deep thought.

I cleared my throat, gaining her attention. "Is everything alright, Christine?"

She blinked, maybe startled and then turned to me. "Ye..eah, I am fine." Her eyes lowered and she

sighed before looking up at me again. "It's a little complicated for us." She spoke lowly. "We broke up

and it was pretty bad. I never really thought I would see him again."

I nodded in understanding. Recalling our past. Both I and Aless went in our separate ways and came

back again with deeper love.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. In a relationship, lots of phases appear. You just need to hold on

with patience."

"I hope so. He still has to go a long way." She replied.

We both fell into silence, not knowing what to say. When,

"How are you doing girls?" Diane walked inside with her graceful aura along with Mario. Even I

watched Antonio, Sage, Aless and Maximo followed them.

We smiled at her. "Fine, I guess." I turned to Christine and she nodded. "Yeah, we are good."

Diane came to us and sat in the middle, holding each hand. She hold our hands to her lips and kissed

them.

"I have never thought that this day will ever come in my life. I will get to see my both daughters alive

and free. I may be given birth to you, but thanks to those people who brought you up so beautifully.

Especially, Victoria."

"I would really like to meet your parents and thank them for growing you up with such grace and

confidence."

I smiled at her and nodded. "I will surely bring them here..."

************

Soon, it's time for us to go back. Even though Diane wants me to stay here, I need to leave to my son

and family. I need to tell them and of course, melt my man's fury, that is still kept him on his toes.

However, Christine is going to stay here. I have heard a little about her family and honestly, they were

not even considered as a family! So horrible! I am glad she is going to stay with our mother, accepting

the fact.

Hearing about her life, I also realised that, I am so lucky to have a family like Edwards. I can't really pay

their debts for what they did for me.

I hugged Diane, Mario and then Christine. I slowly turned to Maximo and nodded at him. His

expression is still blank, yet he nodded lightly.

Then I again turned to Mother. "I will be back soon, as soon as I organise everything back home."

"I will be waiting for you." Diane kissed my forehead and wiped tears from the corner of her eyes.

After bidding our goodbyes, I walked out of the Martinez mansion with others. Mario's men safely

dropped us at the airport and he even insisted we take his jet, which we accepted gladly. Mostly, it was

Aless because he is not gonna trust any other pilot at this point. So, he chose the safest option without

any argument.

Soon, our plane take off and I watched Aless going to the cabin for rest. Nodding at Antonio, I followed

him like a lost puppy. However, as soon as he watched me entering behind, he was about to leave but I

stopped him.

"Aless, please..." I hold his hands.

His expression was blank and he moved his hands away from me. "You take rest here, I will be

outside." He wanted to leave but I hugged him tightly.

"Please, don't go. I... I am sorry, Aless. Please, don't be like this." I looked up at him, hopelessly

begging him to stay and he sighed.

"Sorry for what, Victoria? For being kidnapped? Or for hiding everything from me?" He shook his head

and rubbed his face. He seemed frustrated as fuck!

I parted my lips to speak yet he stopped me, "Don't Victoria. I don't want to hear a single word from

you! How could you do that to me!? All the while I was thinking our problems were solved and all! I was

thinking that we were going on a vacation! But, all of it was a pure lie! You were doing such a

dangerous task alone without letting me know anything! I was going crazy and stupefied hearing

everything! Do you know how I felt at that moment!? No, you don't! Why Victoria, why?"

"How could I tell you when I watched you happy, Aless! Would you tell me if you were in that situation?

Seeing me happy and relaxed, would you?" I asked and he stopped. I shook my head. "No, you

wouldn't, Aless. So, didn't I."

I sat on the edge of the bed. "I know, I was wrong for not telling you everything beforehand. Trust me, I

tried. Yet, I couldn't whenever I have seen you moving around happily. I am sorry, Aless. I... I didn't

know what to do!"

I covered my face and cried in frustration. Suddenly, I felt a touch on my thighs as I removed my hand

and found Aless on his knees on the floor before me.

His eyes were teary as he hold my hands.

"At some point, we both were at fault. But, I don't want to feel like this anymore. I can't explain what I

felt when I woke up from a deep sleep, Victoria. All the while I was scared and thought stupid things

like losing you. I didn't know what I was doing. I was helpless, mad, angry and whatnot."

"Promise me, Victoria. In future, no matter what the situation is, you won't hide anything from me. Not a

single thing! Promise me!"

I caressed his head before holding his hand and nodded. "I won't hide anything away from you, Aless.

You need to promise me too the same thing."

"I won't Victoria. We will share everything. I promise." He said and hugged me by the waist, hiding his

face in my chest.

"Umm... Aless..." I called for him.

"Hmm?" He hummed without looking up.

"How did you manage Alessandro Rossi?" I pursed my lips and heard him chuckle.

"Just gave away one project. You are the most important Victoria. Nothing seems worthy before you."

He murmured.

I could not utter a word in front of his words, only hugged him tightly.

After a few seconds, he broke the hug and looked up at me. His expression was strange as he cleared

his throat.

"What should I call you now? Victoria Edwards or Victoria Martinez?" He asked and I arched my brow.

"Maybe, Mrs Devonte?" I smiled, pursing my lips and his eyes shone before it started darkening.

"Well, for that..." He hold my left hand and caressed my ring finger with his thumb. I felt my heart

tightened. I lost the ring he gave me.

"Aless, I..."

"Sshh." He hushed me, pressing my lips with his index finger and brought something from his pant

pocket and hold it in front of my eyes.

The sapphire blue diamond gleamed and I felt a strange tickle in my heart. My ring! He saved it too! I

could not help the tears that rolled from my eyes.

"Victoria Edwards Martinez, would you like to be Mrs Devonte and give this stupid man who loves you

like crazy, a chance to take care of you for the rest of your life?" He watched me with expectant eyes.

It's not the first time but it felt like the first time! My emotions are high and I am a crying mess. In

between, I nodded my exam vigorously, "Yes!"

Alessandro grinned and put the ring back in its place and kissed my hands... "I am gonna plan our

wedding this fucking month! No more delaying!" He announced.

Fuck! I love this man so much!!!
