“Pfft! Your skills have been deteriorating nowadays. At least you were good at coming up with some reasonable excuse back then.” Athena said, giggling a little.

“That wasn’t an excuse Miss Bartley.” Markus said, his voice calmer, trying to prove his point.

“Just call me Athena.” Athena replied, a smile pasted on her lips.

“We aren’t that close.” Markus replied straightforwardly.

“We can be.” Athena said, her smile turning into a smirk.

“I don’t want to.” Markus said, but before Athena could speak anymore, he immediately interrupted her.

“Anyways Miss Bartley, may I know the reason for your sudden visit.” Markus said, not wanting to talk much with Athena.

It wasn’t that Athena was lacking in any way. In fact there was a swarm of men running behind her. And why wouldn’t they be?

Athena Bartley, only heir of Bartley family, being filthy rich, CEO of Glitter, beautiful and intelligent. If there was anything that she lacked, then it was her IQ whenever she met Markus.

She had first seen him at a meeting and since then, she couldn’t keep a control on her heart.

She would stick to him like a little puppy, not leaving even when Markus gave her irritated look or death glare.

In fact, in the last meeting, Markus had literally shooed her away, making her dad go mad at Markus, but she still pleaded her father to not do anything against Markus, even going to the lengths of threatening her dad about how she would harm herself if he was to lay even a finger on Markus.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t see how irritated Markus would be whenever she approached him, but she just didn’t care about that. She only had one thing in mind – Markus. And no matter what, she knew that she will have him one day.

“Off course it is about our collaboration Mr. Markus. I wanted to personally handle thid major project.” Athena replied, her tone much more serious now.

“We can discuss the terms in the meeting room. Let’s go there.” Markus said while getting up from his seat.

Looking at Markus leaving ahead, Athena immediately got up, not wanting to be left behind.

But she lost her footing due to the sudden action, her heels making her lose her balance.

Thankfully Markus was quick enough in noticing this and held her, before she could fall on her back.

“Mark-” suddenly a cheerful voice stopped abruptly.

Kizy who was all smiles after joining the company for the first time, wanting to surprise Markus, was stunned at the scene playing in front of her.

Markus, her beloved husband was holding a beautiful woman in his arms, their proximity more than necessary.

“Young-” Joel was about to speak when suddenly Markus who was supporting Athena immediately removed his hands from her back, making Athena fall with a loud thud on the ground, her eyes wide in disbelief.

‘Boss you shouldn’t have saved Miss Athena if you were to leave her that way. Wouldn’t that have been better. Neither would have Young Miss misunderstood you, nor would you have to take the blame of making a woman fall down.’ Joel thought, shaking his head.

‘I am dead meat! I had already told Nicole that partnership with Glitter would only be trouble. Now look at this. I have already landed myself in trouble even before starting the partnership.’ Markus thought.

“Kizy it’s not like what you are thinkin-” Markus was still speaking when Kizy cut him off, but her statement and action surprised both Markus and Joel.

“Markus, is this how you treat a lady? Let me help you.” Kizy said politely before bending down and extending her arm towards Athena.

Athena just looked at her hand before getting up on her own, not wanting Kizy’s help.

“You should always be good to females.” Kizy said, not minding the way Athena ignored her help.

“Sorry Kizy. I thought you were angry because of the way we were standing.” Markus said, bewildered that Kizy was responding so calmly.

In fact it was her calmness that was making Markus feel terrified.

“How can she be so childish! You can still leave her.” Suddenly Athena said in between.

“Miss. Bartley, please talk nicely with her. I won’t tolerate-” Markus was speaking in an angry tone when Kizy once again interrupted him.

“Markus! How can you talk like that with a lady? It’s her fault or maybe her parents fault for not teaching her basic manners. But why are you behaving the same?” Kizy said, her tone still calm.

‘Yes! Finally Young miss is back!!’ Joel thought, even clapping for Kizy’s comeback in his mind.

“How dare you talk about my basic manners!” Athena said, her voice raising a little.

But this time Kizy ignored her, turning towards Markus.

“And why were you afraid of me being angry? I trust that you would never leave me for any random woman.” Kizy said, her gaze fleeting past Athena.

‘Trust? My foot! Let that woman go and I will show you what my trust is!’ Kizy thought in her mind.

“Random woman?” This time Athena seriously lost it.

“Miss Bartley, I think we can talk about the project some other time. Or maybe send some representative from your side. I think you must have work and responsibilities and you won’t have free time to come and visit me again.” This time Markus seriously made it clear on how much he wanted Athena to leave and not appear in front of him again.

Athena took a deep breath to control her anger before speaking.

“I will take my leave now. But I won’t forget this incident, especially you.” Athena said, pointing towards Kizy before leaving the office.

“Wifey, are you fine? I told you to rest. Your health is more important. You don’t have to attend the office.” Markus said with an exaggerated smile as soon as Athena was gone.

“Why? So that you could keep helping someone?” Kizy said, her tone completely cold.

“Is someone jealous?” Markus said, his tone teasing.

“Jealous? And me?” Kizy said, her tone completely careless.

“No no wifey. It is me who is always jealous. Sorry for the earlier incident.” Markus immediately said, his tone polite.

“What are you sorry for? You didn’t do anything wrong!” Kizy said dramatically before turning around and stepping out of the door.

“What were you doing!!??” Markus shouted at Joel before running behind Kizy.

‘Why are you shouting at me? How could a small employee like me dare to stop a leading female CEO? I just don’t have the power to do so! Why shout on my poor soul?’ Joel thought sadly.

“Kizy!! KIZYY!” Markus shouted behind Kizy who simply entered inside Joel’s office.

“Why are you entering Joel’s office?” Markus asked.

“This is my office.” Kizy said, finally looking at Markus.

“Huhh?” Markus asked, not knowing what Kizy meant.

“This would be my office. My health is not in good condition and I need to recuperate silently while doing my job. So Joel will be staying and working in your office while I will work here.” Kizy said while sitting on the chair behind the desk.

“Kizy please don’t be like this. How can I work without watching your pretty face. Joel’s face will only ruin my mood.” Markus said, trying to calm his raging wife.

“Just like you were working moments before my entry.” Kizy said, once again going back to her cold tone.

And Markus was stumped for words.

“Its not like that. I was just saving her from falling. And why are you getting so riled up over that. You getting angrier only proves that you were jealous.” Markus spoke.

“Why should I be jealous? Or wait a minute. You want me to return to your office. Right?” Kizy asked.

“Yes. Exactly.” Markus replied.

“Then I have one condition.” Kizy said, pointing out one finger.

“And what is it?” Markus asked, having a negative feeling about Kizy’s sudden condition.

“Only you will be the representative for Glitter’s partnership. And only that woman can be the representative from their side. The entire project will be done by you two.” Kizy said, her voice monotonous.

“What? Why? I mean why are you doing this?” Markus asked, not being able to believe that his very own wife wanted him to work with the woman who has actually caused this entire scene.

“Just to prove that I am not jealous of some woman.” Kizy said nonchalantly.

“Ok I trust that you were not jealous. Please just take your condition back.” Markus said, not wanting to have anymore contact with Athena.

Who would have known that the deadly Mafia king, Satan, would be seen pleading his wife to not push him towards another woman.

“No I won’t. Either you let me work in this separate office or you go with my condition. There is no other option.” Kizy said, knowing full well that she was going a little overboard, but somewhere deep she knew that in reality she was jealous of Athena, but it was something that she didn’t want to accept.

“Kizy, don’t make it difficult for me. I am truly serious. I promise I will stay metres away from that woman but no more conditions please.” Markus said, his voice complaining.

“No third option.” Kizy said, firm on her stance.

Markus thought for a minute before speaking.

“Fine. Get back to the office. I will go with your condition.” Markus said unhappily.

Kizy nodded her head before getting up and walking back to Markus’s office, followed by a dejected Markus behind.

“Why are you still here? Go back to your work.” Markus said angrily to Joel.

“Ye.. Yes boss.” Joel said.

‘Young Miss and Boss were talking in my office. How was I supposed to go and work there? Poor me.’ Joel said, almost crying internally while leaving.

Next few days were pretty normal, where Athena would frequently visit the company. But during all the visits, Kizy would excuse herself and go away.

Somehow Athena was well behaved these days as she was completely formal during the visits, without taking any initiatives against Markus.

Finally the last day arrived, when Markus was going to hold a press meeting along with Glitter for their recent partnership announcement.

All the media had arrived before the allotted time to capture the collaboration of two huge companies.

Alas Athena arrived in a white car, wearing white silvery strapless gown, her silver high heels making click clack noise, attracting all the attention.

“Woah! Miss. Athena looks so stunning today!”

“I think she will be stealing all the limelight this time.”

“Isn’t that the latest dress from Purple?”

“She definitely has my heart!”

The entire audience was immediately into a frenzy as soon as Athena stepped on the stage.

People were still busy admiring her when a black maybach arrived, making the entire crowd go silent, awaiting the arrival of their Power couple.

Markus, wearing an entire black outfit first climbed out of the car, before extending his hand for Kizy.

And the next moment, Kizy stepped out of the car, making millions of hearts stop beating for a moment. But the next second, the crowd went wild, especially after watching her outfit.

“What’s wrong with the outfit?”

“Are we shooting some drama?”

“Is the rumour about Miss. Athena impressing Mr. Markus true?”

“Is this truly a coincidence or a pre planning?”

The reporters atrated commenting on the dress.

Kizy and Markus, who could hear some of them immediately turned to look at Athena and finally understood what the people were speaking about.

“Well played.” Kizy said with a smirk.
