238 238. Markus told Jason
“I guess he left already.” Rose said in a low voice, knowing this would hurt Kizy.
“What!! How can he leave without informing?” Kizy asked in a surprised tone.
Rose was about to reply when Markus came from behind, wrapping his hand around Kizy’s shoulder.
“Your team members have average tolerance.” Markus said in a teasing voice, trying to deviate Kizy’s attention.
“Let’s sit and compete for drinks once I am back. Dare you try saying the same thing again!!” Rose challenged and left, internally thanking Markus for his timely interference.
“What are you looking at, wifey?” Markus asked, turning towards Kizy.
“Jason suddenly left without meeting me. I think they are facing some serious crisis on their side.” Kizy mumbled, lost in her own thoughts.
Of course how could Markus forget that his wife wasn’t some ordinary random woman who would easily get distracted by such childish tricks.
“Don’t think much about him. We need to send others back and return back home.” Markus said, dragging Kizy towards his group.
Kizy, Lisa, Catherine, Nicole and Ruth talked for some more time, while Markus, Lewis and Felix were seen in the extreme corner of the room, discussing in low voices.
“So you told Jason everything?” Lewis asked.
“Yeah.” Markus said, his voice a little cold.
“Is he agreeing to it?” Felix asked.
“Not at all. He asked me to drop this plan. But you know that I can’t stretch this any longer. And without his support, this task would become even harder. Alas I made him agree to it, though against his will.” Markus said, knowing that though Jason had agreed, he wasn’t happy.
“So you made him accept your plan? Is that why he left with the group?” Lewis asked.
“Yes. He needs to explain all this to his group members as well. I know this is very risky, but I can’t help.” Markus said, looking at the city through a glass window, his eyes cold and full of hatred.
“Nevermind. At least you managed to convince him into agreeing to this. Now, let’s go back, or else our smart sister in law would definitely know that you are hiding something from her.” Felix said, and the three men nodded at each other in understanding, before going back towards the ladies.
“You all can go now. It’s already very late.” Markus said while placing his arm on Kizy’s shoulder, receiving ridiculed expressions from his friends.
“Stop being so petty. We will go only when Kizy tells us to.” Lisa said, feeling nothing about Markus shooing them away.
“Kizy, tell them to go away immediately.” Markus said, turning to look towards his wife.
“Don’t drag me in between.” Kizy said, laughing a little.
“See, she said that all of you should leave.” Markus said, turning back towards his friends.
“Man!! We will go. Just stop being so pathetic.” Lewis said, dragging his wife along with him.
“Wish you both a long life, filled with happiness forever!” Lisa said before leaving.
All the others greeted Markus and Kizy once again before leaving one by one. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“No need to stay. Go back with them. We’ll go on our own.” Markus said to Joel, who was still standing.
“No boss, let me accompany you.” Joel said, immediately getting back to his PA mode.
“Just go back. We don’t need a third wheel in between.” Markus said, warning Joel to leave him and Kizy alone.
“Ok boss. I will go right now. Good night boss, good night Young Madam.” Joel said while literally running out of the room, knowing that he had saved himself from a thunderstorm.
“Let’s go back home, my little lamb.” Markus said while looking tenderly at Kizy.
“There’s one place we need to go before we go home today.” Kizy said, giving him a secretive smile.
“No no. We are going home, I have planned something important!” Markus said, his voice unable to hide his desperacy.
“Just one place, but we need to do some preparations before we go. Please, just this once!!” Kizy said, trying to look as cute as she could.
Finally, how could Markus resist her charm and cuteness?
“Ok, but please make it quick.” Markus said, giving in to his wife without arguing, something which happened way too rarely.
“Follow me!” Kizy said and walked ahead, leaving a speechless Markus behind.
‘How can she change her attitude so quickly after getting what she wants! Shouldn’t she try acting cute and please me more?’ Markus thought dejectedly before following behind his excited wife.
Both of them soon reached the parking space, only after being greeted by all the staff at Gazebo.
“I’ll drive.” Kizy said, blocking Markus from their car.
“No, let me drive. Just give me the location or maybe you can tell the directions for your place.” Markus said, his tone firm.
“Please just do this once! Can’t you grant me one wish on our anniversary? Please please please! Just this one time.” Kizy spoke, her voice over dramatic while she gave her best to act cute.
“Not again.” Markus said while looking at her pout.
“I drive well. Or maybe you can just sit on the front passenger seat and montior my driving. This way if something happened, it would be easier for you to control.” Kizy said, trying to make her excuse sound as logical as she could.
And though Markus could see through her plan, he finally gave in.
‘Anyways I am there by her side. What can happen? Even if she has mediocre skills, I have good reflexes. No need to worry unnecessarily.’ Markus thought to himself and let Kizy enter the driver seat while he sat on the front passenger seat, something which was happening for the first time.
But soon he was proved wrong, as Kizy not just had mediocre skills but she was way worse than beginners.
