Chapter 9 - 9. Selling Away Your Daughter

"Oh my god. I never knew that such an outstanding man was waiting with so much pain for Kizy all these years. I know she is a little cold, but that is just her external appearance. Because of her nature, she never share many thing with others. If would have told me about you earlier, i would have personally given my daughter's hand to you. She just has a tough personality, but rest assured that she is very warm hearted. For people she care, she doesn't think twoce even when she has to risk his life. You can see for yourself, just to save me, she married you without any complaints.

And how can i make myself to punish you who has already suffered this much. I just want my daughter to be loved, cherished and protected for all her life. If you can promise me all these, i would seriously forgive you for forcing her into marriage" Kate said.

Though she was always a smart woman, but when people are emotional, they tend to not notice small details. Not to mention that Kizy was the only person she cared about.. The only worry she had was what will happen to Kizy once she wasn't around. She knew how coldly her duaghter treated others. She just wanted to watch her settle down with someone who would love her which would melt away her coldness. And now that she had finally found someone, how could Kate use her logic in this place.

"Kizy my child, you are so lucky to have Markus. I truly have no more wish left from this life of mine" Kate said while turing towards Kizy.

"Hehe mom. Are you just selling me away like that? Anyways you should just focus on your recovery. After that we both will stay together" Kizy said.

"Yes mom. I have already shifted all your belonging to my home. You should stay with us from now" Markus said with Kizy.

"No my child. How can i commit the sin of living at my in-laws place. I just wanted Kizy to settle down properly. Now that she has found you, i want to devote my life for some good work. I have my plans but we will discuss it some other day." Kate said with affection.

The trio then had a peaceful lunch and then Kizy left with Markus for searching for new job. Kizy was silent for the entire time. Even after entering the back passenger seat, she was staring at Markus.

"What? Don't tell me that you have already fallen for me?" Markus said with a smirk.

Kizy immediately came back to her senses and turned her head towards the window. She seriously needed to stay away from this devil who could even fool her intelligent mother this easily.

Markus dropped Kizy near a company where she wanted to go for an interview and left for his own business.

Kizy cleared her head before entering the building. Though she had a good experience, but after knowing the past company she worked at and why she had left it, this company rejected her.

Same things kept happening at rest of interviews. While she was leaving from the last company she interviewed today, one of the judges came to meet her.

"Miss Kizy, I have seen your performance, and i can see that you are very capable. But the person you have infuriated is powerful. If you seriously want to find a job, i suggest that you go for Stardust business. Only they have the power to go against your previous company." The senior suggested good naturedly.

"Thank you for your guidance sir. I will definitely think upon it" With that Kizy bowed and left for Markus's home.

Today Markus was already home before her. Both of them had there dinner with usual bickering and left for there room. Kizy knew that she won't be able to escape his room, and her brain started working at a high speed to find an excuse.

"Markus, i have some work left and i will have to make a few calls. That will disturb you, so i will go to the terrace" With that Kizy immediately rushed out of the room with her laptop and mobile.

She worked till ten and when she was sure that a long time has passed and Markus must be asleep, she went back to room.

With yesterday's memory fresh in mind, she didn't dare to mark the boundary. She knew she had bad sleep habits, and didn't wanted to embarass herself again. She climbed the bed from her side and shifted her body to the extreme edge, far away from Markus while her back faced him.

Suddenly a hand encircled her waist and pulled her behind. She could feel a firm wall of muscles rhythmically moving up and down behind her. Kizy looked at Markus, but he seemed fast asleep. She tried to remove his hand, but instead he tightened it around her and pulled her even more towards him. He snuggled and little and finally rested his head between her neck and shoulder and breathed slowly.

Kizy no longer dared to move now. There was no gap left between both of there bodies, and she wasn't sure how Markus would move after this again.

She silently cried in her mind before trying to sleep.

Next morning she woke up earlier than Markus, and thankfully he had removed his hand from her waist, which made her able to get up easily.

Like yesterday both of them had breakfast and went to hospital. But today Kizy left early to find a job.

She hadn't told Markus about interviewing for Stardust as it was his company. Unknown to her, Markus had alloted two men to watch her safety. He knew that being his women, if the news was leaked, almost all his enemies would go for her head.

Kizy was entering the building when one of her bodyguard made a call.

On the other side, Joel ended the call before informing his Markus.

"Boss, I think ladyboss wants to join our company. She is here for interview today."
