Kizy sighed before folding the paper and keeping it in her pocket while sitting back, tears threatening to fall from her eyes while digesting all the things that Markus had mentioned.

She looked down, eyes closed, taking deep breaths to calm herself down, thinking all the things through, even though they didn’t make any sense.

“Sorry for shouting at you earlier, grandpa. I was being way too rude with you.” Kizy said, her voice full of guilt and self remorse, knowing that she had done something like this for the first time, because Markus’s thought had made it unable for her to think rationally.

“You don’t have to feel guilty, child. Just know that we are there to support you. Thus I hope you’ll similarly support Markus and think while keeping yourself in his shoes. If the situation that you have was faced by Markus, would you even think twice before going all out?” Grandpa asked, his tone calm but firm.

“No.” Kizy said, still lowering her head as she was feeling ashamed for arguing with an elderly person, that too with grandpa who always had his nest of thoughts for her.

“That’s exactly what he is doing. So you stay here and support his business in your way.

And my grandson isn’t weak to be in danger by such tasks. He is Markus Evans, Satan for the whole underworld in country B.

And if someone dared to harm him in any way, these old bones wouldn’t mind slaughtering everyone one last time.” Grandpa said, rubbing Kizy’s head while chuckling at his last statements.

“Hmmm.” Kizy said, finally lifting her head while nodding.

“Good. Now that you are already here, why not stay for dinner? I will ask the chef to make something of your liking.” Grandpa suggested, his voice like that of a grandfather who simply wanted to spoil his grandkids.

“No grandpa. Maybe some other day. Anyways, now that I am alone, I will be disturbing you on a regular basis.” Kizy said jokingly.

“You are always welcome.” Grandpa said and had a hearty laugh.

“Also, Nicole will be shifting to your place and accompanying you along with your team from tomorrow. Maybe she will arrive at your place tonight or early morning tomorrow.” Grandpa informed Kizy.

“Okay, I will ask the butler to make proper arrangements.” Kizy said.

“No need, that brat had already made all the arrangements.” Grandpa said, feeling proud of his grandson who infinitely loved and doted on his wife.

Hearing grandpa, Kizy teared up once again, her throat choking from all the emotions.

She took another deep breath and gulped hard, before talking.

“What about grandma? Where is she?” Kizy asked, trying to divert the topic from Markus as she knew that she might end up crying if they were to keep talking about him.

“She has gone to attend a function.” Grandpa answered.

“Alone?” Kizy asked.

“No, she and Mary have gone together. They will return after having dinner there.” Grandpa explained.

“Ok. What about you? Do you want me to cook something for you?” Kizy asked.

“No child, no need to worry. The chef has already prepared everything. He will serve whenever I ask him to.” Grandpa said.

“Then grandpa I will take my leave now.” Kizy said, standing up and ready to leave.

“Take care of yourself. I don’t want that brat to question me about your health once he returns.” Grandpa said while standing up.

“Yes grandpa.” Kizy said, feeling even more sentimental.

“And don’t overexert yourself for the company as well. You can always turn to me when you need anything. Just stay healthy.” Grandpa reminded her once again.

“Yes grandpa.” Kizy said with a smile, before quickly turning and leaving, tears flowing down her face.

“She is such a tough and mature person for her young age. Still acting brave just because she didn’t want me to think that she is weak. She is way too similar to my Markus in some aspects.” Grandpa said, sadness filling his heart.

By the time she reached the car, she was already sobbing, trying hard to not cry loudly.

“Young madam, are you alright?” Suddenly Joel asked in a worried tone.

“Joel?” Kizy asked, quickly wiping her tears away.

“Yes.” Joel replied.

“What are you doing here?” Kizy asked, trying to normalise her breathing.

“Boss asked me to pick up and drop you off everyday. He has also warned me to not leave you alone during office hours, as well as whenever you are visiting any place other than your home.

I was busy checking on the latest project hence I didn’t know when you left the office. By the time I was notified, you were already inside the mansion, so I drove here. Sorry for my negligence.” Joel answered politely.

“You don’t have to be sorry Joel. Let’s go back home.” Kizy replied, Markus’s thoughtfulness making her hate herself.

Joel nodded and opened the car door for Kizy, signalling Jack and Alex to follow in a different car while he sat on the front passenger seat.

He could see that Kizy was truly heartbroken, no matter how much she was trying to act calm, and must be blaming everything upon herself for what Markus would face.

He kept quiet for the entire ride, thinking how to make his Young Madam understand that she should not blame herself.

“Have you had your dinner?” Kizy asked while stepping out of the car.

“No Young madam.” Joel replied curtly.

“Do you mind joining me for dinner?” Kizy asked, hoping she could at least ask some details about Markus to Joel.

“Young Madam, the thing is I never have dinner without Ruth. Even when we have company meetings, I go back home and have a light dinner with her.” Joel replied, affection visible in his eyes.

“Oh okay. Maybe bring her with you next time. It has been a few days since I met her.” Kizy replied before she remembered something.

“Also how is it going with Nina?” Kizy asked.

Joel was instantly on shy mode, not knowing how his young Madam could ask questions out of the blue.

“You don’t have to answer if you feel uncomfortable. But I would just tell you one thing. You might be Markus’s PA, but for me you are no less than a friend. And now that you are courting Nina, I am more than happy to have two friends of mine date.” Kizy replied before turning, ready to enter her house.

“We are officially dating now!” Joel replied suddenly, watching that Kizy was about to go.

“What!! Woah!! You two are truly fast. But I am genuinely happy for you both.

Just that Nina is a very simple girl. She doesn’t belong to our world. So protect her and understand her. And don’t ever dare to break her heart or else this friend won’t mind breaking your bones.” Kizy said, laughing at the end.

“No young Madam, I won’t dare to.” Joel replied instantly, even stuttering a little.

“Congratulations to you and I definitely want a party for this.” Kizy said, smiling.

“I will plan for that soon.” Joel replied respectfully.

“Go now, Ruth must be waiting for you.” Kizy said before turning back, entering the house.

Joel kept looking at her figure until the doors were closed.

‘Young madam is truly the only one who can suit the boss. Boss is good at everything except maintaining relationships, and Young Madam turns out to care about this part the most. No matter if it is a servant, or high ranking official, she treats both of them with affection if they are close to her.

But she was acting very weird today. I hope she will be alright. Boss please return soon. I miss watching you both together already.’ Joel thought before dejectedly turning towards the car, leaving for his home.

“Young madam, should I serve your dinner?” Old chef asked as soon as Kizy opened the door.

“No. I don’t feel hungry today. You all have your dinner. I will go and sleep properly.” Kizy said, about to walk past the old chef.

“Young madam, please eat something. Young master had warned us to not let you skip meals.” Old chef said, feeling sad for Kizy who looked so pale on the very first day after their master had left.

He couldn’t imagine how she was going to survive the next few days until Markus returned, and thus just like grandpa and Joel, even the old chef and butler prayed for an early return of Markus.

Kizy paused, thinking what to do. She wanted to hug and slap Markus at the same time.

She so wanted to be angry at him for leaving her in the dark, hiding what dangers he was walking into, while she was left alone, guarded by all. This wasn’t the life she ever wished. She always wanted to stay by his side no matter if they were walking on smooth roads or a path full of obstacles.

Instead she was left behind, saved by a prince while being damsel in distress. No, she had always been her own hero, not wanting others to be in danger to make sure that she was happy and safe. This was definitely not what she wanted.

But at same time she wanted to hug and kiss him, wrap his arms around her waist, hear his heartbeat, feel his warmth while she couldn’t thank him enough and express how grateful she was for having such a considerate partner for lifetime who only knew to put her first, leaving all other priorities beside.

“Give me a glass of milk. I’ll have that.” Kizy said, not wanting to disobey Markus and similarly put the old chef in a difficult position.

“Yes young madam.” The old chef said, quickly bringing a glass of warm milk, before placing it on the dining table.

“Please sit and drink.” The old chef said before retreating inside.

Kizy slowly came near the dining table, sitting on her usual chair, taking sips of milk.

She was thinking to quickly finish it up before rushing back to her room when her eyes fell on the chair beside her, the one that belonged to Markus.

This made her feel broken. She instantly gulped the entire glass of milk down her throat, the hotness unable to wash her thoughts away.

She rushed back to their room, running all the way to the second floor before slamming the door hard and kneeling down with a thud.

She wasn’t a weak person to begin with, not the one who would sit and cry in such situations. She was made of ice, born to freeze the world with her wrath.

But it was Markus, who had slowly, step by step broken her walls, melted her heart with his warmth, made her feel emotions she never knew existed.

And thus here she was, feeling helpless as Markus had left her with his people, protecting her all the time while not letting her leave city A.

“How can you do… do this to me?” Kizy cried to herself, finally breaking down into tears.

That night even Kizy didn’t know how long she cried and when she finally drifted off to sleep while sitting in the same position on the floor.

ONE WEEK LATER, STARDUST OFFICE

“Discuss with the other side and set the date and timing for the meeting of this project before the weekend. I will personally meet their CEO.” Kizy said in a monotonous voice to Joel, without even lifting her head from the next document of which she had already completed reading the first page.

“Young madam, you have already scheduled eight meetings this week along with starting three major projects. Your schedule is tight and you will be exhausted by all this. Let’s postpone this meeting to next week.” Joel said politely, worried that Kizy was definitely wanting to court death by the way she was working.

“Joel please-” Kizy was about to reply when the office door opened from outside.

“Listen to what he is saying.” The person entering said.
