THE BLONDE SHADOW

XIMENA

“I myself was in charge of transforming that paradise into a hell. I bore that man to the point of exhaustion, I was jealous enough to leave him; I even thought of killing him so that if he wasn't mine, he wouldn't belong to anyone.

My security level was higher, and I thought I wouldn't have any problems because no woman would harass him. How wrong I was. It turns out that there are many who thought the same thing, or because of eye problems, they thought he was beautiful.”
