Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

“What is it, child?” Grandpa asked gently.

“Should we go and surprise mother in country A? We will stay there and cheer her on for her competition while we can also enjoy it as our family time or maybe a family trip!!” Kizy said excitedly.

Markus immediately slapped his forehead, not knowing that the normally cold Kizy would become excited at such small things.

“That’s such a great idea Kizy!! Anyways we have never gone to support Mary. And I know that even though she acts all cool and savage, she will truly love being surprised by all of us.” Grandma said, ignoring Markus’s reaction.

“You agree with it?” Kizy asked, surprised at grandpa and grandma being supportive of her.

“Of course.” Grandpa said before turning towards Markus.

“You cancel all your upcoming meetings for this week or let Joel handle it. Go and pack luggage for both of you.” Grandpa ordered Markus.

“Why should I pack her stuff? In fact, shouldn’t the wife be the one packing for both herself and her husband?” Markus asked, dumbfounded at his grandpa’s statement.

“And isn’t the husband the one who takes care of her and treats her gently. A perfect husband is someone who never lets his wife do extra chores and help her out as much as possible?” Grandma said, her voice showing her irritation.

“Grandma? Like seriously?” Markus asked, disbelieved.

“Of course!! If you are going to carry such narrow thoughts even after our teachings, then this is how I am supposed to talk to you.” Grandma reprimanded him.

“Grandma it’s ok. I can pack for myself.” Kizy said.

“No. Let him do this. Anyways, I am already angry at him.” Grandma said.

“Now what did I do?” Markus asked confusedly, not knowing what he had done to piss his grandmother so much.

“You have been married for how many months?” Grandma asked.

“Almost eight and half months.” Markus answered sincerely.

“Exactly. That’s what I am angry about!!” Grandma said in an annoyed tone.

“What’s so wrong about being married for eight months?” Markus exclaimed.

“Brat, she means you have been married for eight months, yet you didn’t plan your couple trip.” Grandpa said, trying to hint at grandma’s point.

“Aren’t we going on a family trip? Isn’t it better than some random couple’s trip?” Markus asked, still confused about what was wrong with his grandparents.

“Is a family trip and honeymoon the same for you??!!” Grandpa shouted, not expecting his own grandson to be so dense.

“Cough.. cough… Honeymoon??!!” Kizy who had been sipping her soup peacefully choked on it.

‘Was this brat not dumb enough? Why is Kizy acting the same? Are they trying to compete for the best ‘high-IQ-low-EQ’ couple?’ Grandma thought, not knowing whether she should laugh or cry at the pair.

“Yes child.” Though grandma thought like that, she still smiled and replied.

“We can plan that next time. Let’s just go with the initial plan of the family trip this time.” Kizy said awkwardly.

Grandpa and grandma gave each other an understanding look before grandpa said.

“Okay as you say. But we will be having one more member along with us for the family trip.” Grandpa said.

“Who is it?” Kizy asked with a confused expression.

“You’ll know that soon.” Grandpa said.

“Uh Huh.. ok.” Kizy said while nodding.

“I think you both should go back to the office and work till evening. Then we can take a night flight for country A.” Grandpa said.

Kizy looked at Markus, as if asking for his opinion, and he nodded at her.

“We will do as you say, grandpa.” Kizy said politely.

Soon both of them left for office while grandma and grandpa watched them from behind, affection visible in their eyes.

“What do you think? Who would be the extra member for our family trip?” Kizy asked Markus in the car.

“That’s a secret.” Markus said, smirking.

“Wait a minute. Does that mean you already know the person?” Kizy asked in a surprised tone.

“Of course. In fact I was the one who had asked that person to accompany us.” Markus daid mysteriously.

“Who is it?” Kizy asked, curious to know the identity of this person.

“As if I would tell you.” Markus said, his devilish smirk was pasted on his face as usual.

“Boss we are here.” Joel announced and both Markus and Kizy climbed down the car, entering the office building instead of their usual elevator no. 1.

“Why are we taking this route?” Kizy asked.

“To remind people that you will always be their ladyboss.” Markus said.

As soon as both of them entered the 1st floor, all the employees stood up, wishing Markus and Kizy

“They truly look so good together.”

“Miss Kizy is still working, even after being engaged to such a wealthy man. This shows her independent personality.” ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​

“So do we start with the next level PDA now?”

“Wow both of them are wearing the same colors – couple goals!!”

“She literally looked like a goddess yesterday.”

“And boss, the only male god exists on this earth.”

All the employees started whispering amongst each other, but there was one thing common. All of them were praising this couple.

The initial criticism that both of them had faced for the previous months was nowhere seen.

“Today I announce that Miss Kizy will resume her position. Let’s welcome her back with a round of applause.” Markus said and started clapping with the rest of the crowd.

“Welcome back Miss Kizy!!”

“Good to see you back.”

“You were awesome Miss Kizy!”

“Live long boss and Miss Kizy.”

The people welcomed her cheerfully.

“Thank you for your warm wishes. Please take care of me.” Kizy said politely, even bowing before the employees sincerely.

‘She is so down to earth.’ All the employees thought at the same time.

Both Markus and Kizy left for his office using the elevator.

“What a show off!!” Markus said as soon as the door to the elevator closed.

“I knew you would say that.” Kizy said nonchalantly.

“Then why act like that?” Markus asked with a smirk.

“That was something I did genuinely. Leave it, I don’t want to ruin my day debating you.” Kizy said, turning her face to the other side.

“Ruin your day? Isn’t it the other way round?” Markus said.

“Yeah right. You’re ruining your day. That’s the correct statement.” Kizy said, rolling her eyes.

“You.. you… just wait and watch.” Markus said angrily, his cheeks puffing up.

‘Boss, young miss, at least pay attention to your image. Bickering like small kids all the time. Even in my presence!! Or do you not consider me at all?’ Joel, who was standing behind the couple, thought to himself.

And thus, for the entire day, Kizy had to work without any breaks, a result of angering Markus earlier.

“Don’t be so petty. I didn’t get to sit for even a minute!!” Kizy said, pouting.

“Is this how a PA is supposed to talk with their boss?” Markus asked with a smirk.

“Is this how a boss avenges himself? By misusing their authority?” Kizy exclaimed.

“My company, my rules.” Markus said with a cocky face.

“Let me call grandpa. We will see who this company belongs to.” Kizy said, taking her phone out.

“Okay, okay, wait. Have some rest. Do you have to act so childish, complaining about such silly things to grandpa?” Markus said, panicking a little.

“That’s better.” Kizy said before going and sitting back on the sofa.

‘Boss shocks young miss rocks!!’ Joel thought to himself before leaving with the signed documents.

Thus the entire day was spent with frequent bickering, arguments and rare peaceful moments, though they were truly rare.

Finally after a day full of work, Kizy and Markus entered their car, tired enough to not argue with each other.

Within fifteen minutes, they were back to Evans mansion, as grandma had called them to visit her before going back home and packing for country A.

“Grandma, we are back!!” Kizy said enthusiastically as soon as they entered.

“Oh child! You must be tired. Kitchen needs fifteen more minutes to prepare the dinner. Till then go back to your room and freshen up. Have a nap, I’ll call you once the dishes are about to be served.” Grandma said lovingly, hooking her arm within Kizy’s, and walking ahead, while Markus, who had entered along with Kizy, was completely neglected, and made to stand sulking at the door.

“Get inside. Nobody is gonna welcome you.” Grandpa who saw this seen while exiting his study spoke and went back to his room, a smile seen on his face.

“I am now sure that I was adopted.” Markus said to himself before dejectedly going towards his room.

Both Kizy and Markus freshened up, before resting on the bed, checking their cell phone and laptop respectively.

“Kizy!! Markus!! Dinner is ready. Come down.” Grandma shouted from the first floor.

Both of them quickly got up, and started climbing down the stairs. But Kizy abruptly stopped in her tracks, shocked after looking down at the person sitting on the dining table.
