《Married To Mafia》chapter 23
Advertisement
I couldn't believe that Ammi is Khalid's real mother. Why is she here? Why doesn't she live with us ??
Did Khalid put her here ???
What kind of son is he ??
But then again that day he looked so broken that his mother hates him , he even begged in front of her but what Khalid did was so bad that his own mother developed hate in his heart ???
I know ammi , she is the sweetest person I know on this earth then what could have happened so bad .
Is Khalid really a bad guy ???
Ohh no what kind of a person I got married with .
Negative thoughts swirl inside my mind, not letting me sleep the whole night. I just turned from this side to another one .
Just then I heard fajr Azan hearing the azan , I pulled away the blanket over my body and went to pray .
" Tesoro ..." I turned to Khalid's 's voice , yes he started calling me tesoro whose meaning I have no idea what. my eyes quickly scanned him from head to toe , wearing denim jeans and navy blue tight fitted shirt , looking handsome as always and I look like I just came from zombie apocalypse but then I quickly seek forgiveness from Allah s.w.t since my lord created everything beautiful and in best form including me and that's why we shouldn't change the creation of Allah s.w.t .
I put my hand on my waist. " What does tesoro mean ??" I raised my eyebrows .
" Idiot " he dug his hand in his pocket towering over me .
Damn his height!
''I scowl " mean " I look away .
I swear from the corner of my eyes I saw his lip twitch .
" Ahem Anyway " he cleared his throat .
" Tonight there is a business dinner -" he was saying when I cut him off .
" So you came here to invite me " I clasp my hand with a huge grin .
" No, " my smile dropped. " I came here to tell you not to come out of your room tonight. " His face held seriousness .
" Why? " I furrowed my eyebrows.
He took a step closer surrounding my nose with his addictive cologne " because I don't want you to create any mess Tesoro " . His voice wasn't harsh while his eyes were speaking something else .
I press my lips getting mad at him " so you think " I poke his chest " I am some " I turn my index finger toward me " ill mannered girl who will make you embarrassed ?"
" Yes " , his agreement made my jaw drop .
I pushed his chest , he stumbled slightly taken aback by my outburst " you are so rude , mean , insensitive DEVIL " my mouth worked on my own .
He looked completely shocked at my audacity of pushing him and saying bad things as well .
My eyes widened in realisation " sorry ! Sorry ! Sorry ! Sorry ! " I patted his chest softly then stepped back giving a sheepish smile .
" I - I won't co- come I promise " I chuckled, twisting my finger nervously .
His eyes flamed with anger so I looked down quickly .
Stupid stupid hand I glare at my hands frowning.
I look up to see him walking away , I lean on the nearest wall sighing in relief " Alhumdulillah " I look up " please warn my brain before my stupid hand or mouth work " I whine seeking forgiveness .
I snack my head " how many times I have to tell you Amira think before speak , he would have kill you today " I scolded myself.

" One day my big mouth will definitely land me into big trouble " I shook my head .
" What kind of a nonsense person I am " I banging my head lightly on the wall .
" Are you sure the doctor didn't throw you on the floor the moment you were born?'' My eyes flew open to see Nafisa looking at me weirdly .
I crossed my arm " do you know what doctor said when you were born " I told her in a sickly sweet voice .
She rolled his eyes " you didn't even born that time "
Point !
Yes surprisingly she is older than me and looks betrayed sometimes .
" That's not the point " I hiss in anger which made her step back .
" When you were born doctor said eww what happen " I laugh but received a bored look from him .
" Is this supposed to be a joke " she raised her eyebrows insulting my joke .
" Yes it is " I gave her challenging look.
" I don't like jokes " she mimic my voice .
" I don't like you... " I drag the word .
We both glared at each other not wanting to back down .
" Anyway " she put hand around my shoulder " bhai arrange a business dinner , you are coming right " we started walking downstairs still her hand hanging around my shoulder .
In this span of time , we have become best friends , we are so comfortable around each other that I fear if Seher will know she will eat me alive .
I pout " No hel refrain me from coming "
"What why? " she scowled at my words .
I shrugged " I don't know "
" I guess I am an embarrassment to him " I slop on the couch feeling upset.
" No, maybe he thinks you won't be comfortable, " she dropped beside me .
"Well" I roll my eyes " it's not like I am going to a party " I shrugged " it's just a dinner "
I heard her laugh " awe my Amira want to come ?" She cooed pinching my cheeks , I smack her hand frustrated.
" Your sweet talk scars me more than you " I huff .
'' Okay , listen there must be some reason I am sure " she tried to cheer me up but my insecurity brought the worst out of me .
I know he thinks I am embarrassed .
I was reading some book which I found in my bag when I heard a knock" What are you doing here? " I narrowed my eyes at Myra wearing a revealing red gown and I don't know if she wore make-up or did she do it .
" Wear this and come downstairs " she slammed something on my hand .
It looks like some uniform type of dress .
" What is this ?" I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.
" It's a maid uniform , wear it and come downstairs " she was about to turn " help the rest of the servant in the dinner "
" Sorry " I stop her " Khalid prohibited me from coming in the dinner tonight " I gave her back the dress with a smirk " and by the way I won't wear this "
She started for a few seconds then dropped the cloth on the floor rudely " it's Khalid order " with that she turned on her heels walking away .
I pick up the dress slowly then close the door behind me .
" But ? He himself said " I couldn't help but feel confused .

" I don't mind working with other servant in the dinner, no work is small for me but -'' I sat on the edge of the bed .
" He said I cannot come in the dinner and now " I sigh .
" Maybe he changed his mind " I shrugged my shoulders .
I stared at the dress throwing it away " I will wear my Abaya work doesn't need dress code , it's time for work " _______________________________________
Khalid Mirza p.o.v
" Good job Osman " I sip my drink while observing everything in front of me .
Osman did a good job arranging the dinner for our exclusive client at such a short notice .
" Wow ... is that really you ?" He chuckled with a mischievous look in his eyes .
I frown " what do you mean "
" Nothing " he shrugged " never heard of you compliment me before"
" By the way I have done great job earlier too " he add " just saying "
" By the way , where is Amira " the moment he took his name I felt my blood boil in anger , I clench my jaw trying my best not to show that his stupid crush on my wife effecting me .
When did you accept her as your wife, my subconscious mocked me .
I didn't reply to his nonsense , I walked away attending our special guest , whom the dinner I held .
" Welcome Mrs Gabriella " I extended my hand .
" Nice party Mr. Mirza '' she shakes my hand , her eyes take my body .
I mentally rolled my eyes at her behaviour. She must be in her late 40s wearing a sea green gown . No one can tell her age by her appearance, she is married and older than me yet giving me a seductive look .
Her husband came with a huge grin on his face " Khalid... Khalid... Khalid looked dashing as always " he gave a brief hug . Being in his 70's , he has really old white hair covering his scalp while his stomach looks like a giant ball . No wonder his women desiring me
I cleared my throat " Thank you Anderson it's good to see you " I nodded .
" I am so happy that we will work together now " Gabrielle snake her hand around her husband's arm while giving me a seductive look .
" We will Rock the business world " Mr. Anderson raises his voice way too cheerfully .
I narrowed my eyes " is he drunk? " I questioned Gabrielle .
She looked slightly embarrassed " oh no... you know him right just excited " she patted her chest smiling but it looked forced .
" Anyway please come inside " with a small smile I lead them inside .
Everyone was doing their chores to serve my guest in the best way. Just then I saw Amira came with a glass of water wearing loose Abaya . Even though she was covered fully , her face was visible to us this time . I guess , she saw the age of Mr. Anderson .
I clench my jaw lowering my eyebrows .... at her direction .
WHAT THE HELL !!! Her audacity to cut my word.
" Excuse us " smiling through while baring my teeth
I grab her arm , her innocent hazel eyes widen , I drag her away from the guest who gave her judging look , I took her to the kitchen .
" Ouch " she whimpered as I pushed her harsly .
" Didn't I warn you not to come downstairs? " I gritted glaring at her .
Amira p.o.v
" But you told me to-" before I could defend myself he grabbed my arm harsly .
" How dare you go against my order " the way he glared made my soul shiver in fear .
" Devi- no I mean Khalid I am doing what you -"
" JUST SHUT UP !" he slammed his hand on the wall near my head and I whimpered, bowing my head .
I felt hot tears burn my eyes as his flaming eyes stared at me with tight lips .
" What is going on here ?" we both looked at Osman who gave us a confused look but the moment his eyes landed on me , he quickly came to my side .
" Amira what happened, why are you crying "
I shook my head wiping the tears " nothing I was just -" my eyes met the Khalid who was still fuming in anger .
" Move " he ordered Osman who stood in front of me protectively .
" I . Said . Move " Khalid took a step forward in a challenging way .
Osman looked down, moving away, poor him ..
A burning in rage Khalid came closer , I can smell his cologne I kept looking down avoiding his eyes " If you mess up anything in this dinner I swear tesoro you will see the worst side of mine "
I look up " this isn't your worst side? " before I could stop my mouth the word flew out .
I covered my mouth , Osman looked stunned and Khalid looked like smoke was about to come out from his ear.
I was just asking genuinely. I mean if this is not worse then what the hell is this politeness???
He pointed finger " mark my word any mistake I will show you hell today understand "
He slammed his fist on the table " UNDERSTAND " I flinched at the pitch of his voice .
" Yes ... yes " I blink back tears .
" Ana are you okay " Osman ask as soon as he left the room.
" It's not my fault , I was just doing what he asked me too " I sob, covering my face with my hands crying
" Shsh... it's okay don't cry " he looked at me helplessly .
" Amira "
" Hm... " I wipe my tears .
" Please don't cry '' unknown emotions swirl in his eyes which I didn't understand . Maybe he sympathizes with me .
I nodded feeling uncomfortable
I took the tray of juice in my hand and walked away while I felt his gaze burn my back
The moment I stepped outside in the hall ,Khalid's eyes met mine for mere seconds before he looked away but my eyes followed Myra clinging around his arm sending smirk toward my direction .
Myra is disgusting... the way she is smiling it won't take a genius to guess it was her plan .
Damn her plan ! I should have been careful .
I put the empty tray on the kitchen counter, filling more glasses. " So I heard Khalid finally showed you your place today. " I turned to see Myra leaning on the door frame, smirking on my way .
I bare my teeth in annoyance. I swear if she won't go away from here I might punch her face .
Ignoring her remark I continue to fill glasses .
" What car got your tongue? " I heard her say .
Please lord please give me patience. I don't want to break my promise.
Picking up the tray I was about to go back to the party when she blocked my path " this is just a trailer if you ever try to get close to Khalid I will make sure you will be thrown out of this house " her eyes blazing fire in jealousy .
I gave her a tight sarcastic smile " please do I would love... " I drag the word " that my husband by the way mine.." I intentionally pressed the word mine " set me free "
When I realised she was not moving I picked one of the glasses to throw on her dress .
She shrieked moving away " What the hell " she hurriedly brushed her dress .
" Thank you for moving " giving her one last sarcastic smile I walked away leaving her face flushed .

Pre - cap " Didn't I warn you " he took a step closer baring his teeth .
I step back in fear " I - I am " I felt my throat dry as the words refused to come out .
" Khalid , she is a innocent it happened by mistake " Osman always tried to defend me .
" Do you remember my word Tesoro? " His voice was dangerously calm as he stepped toward me .
I nodded, stepping back .
" What did I say? " he asked calmly .
I stayed quiet, darting my eyes on the ground .
" WHAT DID I SAID ". His voice roared, making me shiver in fear .
" Tha - that I will see your worst side " I stumbled on my words.
" Correct " all of the sudden he grabbed my hand dragging me. I have no idea where .
