250 250. Boss please return soon
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. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
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.
