He no longer cared about his life. He was just curious about the person who had wanted to save him from both Markus and Jason, as both of them were truly eminent figures.
Those who had the power to go against both of them could be counted on the fingers.
"You'll know soon." One of the two n said, keeping a watch over Aaron.
Aaron simply shut his mouth, talking no more as he knew he couldn't make these n speak. So it was better to wait for the person to make an appearance by himself.
*3 AM, MARKUS's HOUSE, A CITY*
Markus tiptoed inside his bedroom, considering Kizy was asleep. He quietly closed the door behind him and was about to climb the bed when....
"Where were you?" Kizy asked.
"Why are you awake wifey?" Markus asked, trying to divert the topic.
"Don't try to change the topic." Kizy said sternly.
"Had so urgent business, so had to go at midnight." Markus replied nonchalantly, acting as if his job was sothing way too simple.
"No. You left even before midnight." Kizy said.
"Maybe that could be true. I didn't check the ti in particular." Markus spoke, still acting.
"What kind of business?" Kizy asked.
"Why are you interrogating ?" Markus asked, a little frustrated as there was literally no one who ever questioned him since he had assud his position.
"Just curious at what kind of business made you leave your precious sleep in middle of night." Kizy spoke.
"Ohh please!! I have been a hardworking man since the beginning. I have already made so many sacrifices to build this empire, not to ntion just my sleep." Markus said cockily.
"Yeah yeah. Who was the one who had cursed because of waking him up to save him from scolding?" Kizy said, rembering an old incident from their college days.
"Are you serious? To save from the scolding of that old geezer? Or to save yourself from being scolded and getting your impression ruined in front of that oldie cause you were the class representative?" Markus asked in an exaggerated voice.
"That's not even the main point! We were talking about your hardwork and your sacrificed sleep." Kizy said, rolling her eyes.
"Fine. I went to et a client who had an appointnt with us tomorrow. But he is suddenly leaving the country." Markus said, lying through his teeth.
"Why are you injured then?" Kizy asked.
"What? Injured and ? Why would you imagine sothing like that stupid woman?" Markus asked in a little awkward voice.
"Just spill the beans." Kizy said annoyedly.
"I am not injured." Markus replied more confidently this ti.
Kizy simply glared at him without speaking anything, as if waiting for him to speak the truth.
"Ok I am slightly injured. But how did you know?" He paused before exclaiming.
"Wait. Did Joel tell you? If that's the case, I am literally going to skin him alive-" Markus was speaking when Kizy interrupted.
"I slled blood the mont you entered inside." Kizy spoke nonchalantly.
"What!!? Seriously!!?? You slled blood? I can't even sll it." Markus asked in an astonished tone, trying to sll his own body.
"I am sensitive to sll." Kizy said.
"Oh yeah!! You had slled that poison in grandma's cake as well!! Can you sll anything else?" Markus asked excitedly, hoping Kozy would sll his brand new cologne.
"Yeah." Kizy spoke while nodding her head, concentrating on the sll.
"What is it?" He asked with a smile.
"Gunpowder." Kizy said, suddenly making him all riled up.
Markus simply didn't know whether he should laugh at her reply or cry for expecting too much from her.
"Let's sleep." He said monotonously, climbing the bed, no more astonished by her sense of sll.
"Did you get that treated?" Kizy asked while chuckling a little, before shifting to her side. She was about to close her eyes when Markus suddenly pinned her down
"Stop laughing at or else…" He said while making a suggestive face.
"Get off ." Kizy spoke with wide eyes, shocked at the sudden attack.
"No." Markus now said in a husky voice, gulping hard, his Adam's apple moving up and down visibly.
Kizy was suddenly confused at his voice change.
Markus ignored her innocently sparkling but confused eyes, which were clouding his thought process.
He bent down, his face nearing her's, making Kizy tightly close her eyes reflexively.
But this woke Markus up from his trance, making him realise what he was doing on the very first day after their reunion. He gulped once again, before bending more.
Kizy who had already closed her eyes, tensed up, feeling his hot breath getting closer to her.
Markus leans down even more, his lips almost touching hers. Just when Kizy is anticipating a romantic kiss, Markus moves a little upwards, giving a gentle kiss on her forehead before rolling down to his side.
"Good night wifey." He speaks in his still husky voice.
Kizy, who was expecting a kiss was left frustrated, not knowing why Markus did that.
'Co on Kizy!! What the hell is wrong with you? You were anticipating this kiss?? No, no. It must be my shock which made my heart beat faster. Why would even the thought of him kissing , make my heart run faster? It was definitely a shock." Kizy thought to herself, more like convincing herself.
Whereas on the other hand…
'What were you about to do? Cool down Markus!! She was treated so harshly by that shit hours ago, and you were about to force a kiss on her?
How can you lose your control just by looking at her eyes!!! No. It must be as grandpa said. I have gotten used to her presence but was not able to be with her for the past two months. Thus my body is acting weirdly. But I am perfectly fine.
This happened because we t today after a long ti. This won't happen, again. I am Markus!! Nothing can beat my self control.' Markus convinced himself, even nodding his head at his great thoughts.
*NEXT DAY MORNING, 11 AM, MARKUS's OFFICE*
Kizy was resting at ho while Markus had specifically called Joel to his office.
"Broadcast that I will be announcing so big news today. Previous venue, 2 pm." Markus said to Joel.
"Yes boss." Joel said and bowed, before leaving to make necessary preparations, knowing what his boss wanted to do.
After Joel exited, Markus made a call to Kizy, who picked up his call after a few rings.
"Are you deaf? What took you so long to pick up the call?" Markus started with his usual tone as soon as the call got connected.
"There are more important things than your call." Kizy said, answering him back in the sa tone.
"You just like to get on my nerves right?" He said and took a deep breath.
"Anyways, I have arranged so people to get you ready. My driver will pick you up at 1.30 pm." Markus said, coming to the main point.
"What's the occasion?" Kizy asked in a confused voice.
"You will know once you co here." Markus said with a smirk before hanging up, giving no ti to Kizy for replying.
*11.30 AM, MARKUS's HOUSE*
Butler called Kizy down, saying so people were there for her.
Kizy ca out of her room, looking at the newcors who were familiar faces. They were the fashion and makeup artist along with the hairstylist who had dressed her up for grandma's birthday.
"Hi!!" Kizy said cheerfully.
"Hello Miss Kizy." Both the man and woman replied politely.
"So what have you planned for this ti?" Kizy asked excitedly.
"You will know that soon. Hope you would like the results though." The man said with a smile before the trio went inside Kizy's room.
*2 PM, PRESS CONFERENCE, A CITY*
Though Markus was involved in an affair two months ago, news of his continued success had covered it up.
Plus all the negative lilight was on Aaron at the mont, for faking identity and dealing weapons in black market.
Along with him, the mber who was being discussed the most was none other than Kizy.
Thus right now, Markus was sohow back to his original popularity.
Therefore the venue was already packed even before the conference started. People were ready with their caras, so going lice while so noting it down, simply ready to capture every mont and everything that Marlus was about to speak.
Exactly at 2 pm, the doors to the hall were pushed open, with Markus clad in an all black formal suit, entering the venue in loud cheers.
"That's my male god!!"
"I can die in this mont."
"Does he have to look so good?"
"But why are we having a sudden press conference?"
"Him and black are currently my most favourites!!"
"I don't care. As long as I get to see my man of dreams, I can literally wait like this every single day!!"
"Did you read about how they finalised their international deal yesterday?"
"Oh my god, I am about to faint!!"
All types of comnts were made by the ti he went up to the stage and settled in his chair.
"Good afternoon everyone. Sorry for the sudden conference without prior notice." Markus began and just like last ti the entire venue was in pin drop silence.
"So today's conference is to apologize to all of you." Markus said and suddenly the audience was in a frenzy.
