Chapter 189 - 189. Coma
*THREE DAYS LATER, UNITY HOSPITAL, A CITY*
Markus was sitting beside Kizy’s bed, his face pale, while he was holding Kizy’s hand, between both of his palms, while Kizy was lying on the bed with her eyes closed.
His eyes were surrounded with dark circles, while his hairs were dishevelled, his face covered with stubble, as he sat there, looking lifelessly at Kizy’s face, which had regained a little color from the treatment of the past two days.
Three days ago, he came limping to the hospital with an unconscious Kizy in his arms.
He still remembers rejecting all the attempts that doctors and other medical staff along with his family and Jason’s team made, to get him treated.
But he sat there unmoving, looking at the closed doors of the operating door, praying to gods that he never believed existed.
Finally after four long hours of sitting there, with his wounds untreated, clothes completely drenched in blood, without moving even once, the doors to the operation theatre opened.
But lady luck was still not in his favour. Doctor had announced that she had fallen into a coma. Though they said that there were higher chances of Kizy recovering soon, as she was young and her injuries weren’t that severe, Markus felt his world falling apart.
Till now he had always felt that he was attracted to Kizy, maybe even liked her a little.
But when he saw her crying and struggling, going away from him, he felt like he couldn’t breathe anymore.
When Aaron had stabbed him in the wrong place purposefully, Markus had understood that he would be saved.
But he was even more shocked after finding that not only had Aaron not stabbed him in any fatal area, but even the blades were mildly poisoned, instead of the deadly poison Professor used.
That was the moment he knew that Aaron didn’t want any harm. Plus Aaron asking him to save Kizy confirmed his suspicion. And thus Markus knew that though Aaron was acting to take Kizy away, he would somehow destroy the professor’s plan.
But even after knowing all this, he felt as if someone was taking out a part of his heart, forcefully tearing it away from him.
Markus never knew that Kizy was so important to him, until the last moment, when he saw her being taken away, her face tear stained, her throat parched from crying his name, while she struggled to break free and come near him.
And that was the moment he understood that he couldn’t live without Kizy. He not only liked her, but had fallen for her through and through, and now he only wanted to wake her up and scream about how much he loved her!
Thus knowing that Kizy might not wake up soon, he decided to stay with her and not leave her side for even a second.
And since that day, he had been with her 24×7. The moment Kizy was wheeled inside this VIP room, Markus had entered with her, eating, sleeping, talking to her without going away.
Markus’s injuries were tended in the VIP ward itself. Though Jack had performed the first aid treatment while they were in Aaron’s base, Markus’s body was poisoned.
But he still sat beside Kizy, refusing to rest. He would occasionally take a small nap, but would wake up with a jerk, either dreaming that wretched day or fearing that someone might take Kizy away.
His own injuries were healing normally, which made him do all tasks for Kizy.
On the first day, all his family members including Mary, Nicole, even Nina and Joel stayed for the entire night at the hospital, accompanying the couple. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
But the very next morning, Markus had forcefully sent all of them back home.
Since then he would take care of Kizy, which even included combing her hair and sponging her body.
Though they had already assigned two caretakers for Kizy, Markus insisted on doing all this for Kizy by himself.
Nicole, grandma and Mary would visit them every day, while managing ‘Stardust’ as well.
Due to the false rumours spread about Markus, ‘Stardust’ had taken a major loss. But grandpa understood that Kizy should be Markus’s first priority.
Thus from the second day itself, he had taken the control in his hands while grandpa helped him out like in the old days.
Even Nicole had joined the company, reducing Joel’s workload, while he would take out some time to spend with Nina.
Three days ago, Professor had almost succeeded in wrecking Markus’s life, kidnapping his and Kizy’s friend and family, destroying their business while planning to kill Markus and take Kizy away.
But thanks to Joel, his grandpa’s team, Nicole and Jason’s team, who had saved them from the crisis.
*THREE DAYS AGO, AN OLD WOODEN HOUSE, NEAR SOUTHERN MOUNTAIN RANGE*
Nina, who was kidnapped by two men while returning home, had been tied to a chair,her mouth covered with a tape while four men were guarding her.
She was still confused about this entire incident, when one of those black dressed men took out her cell phone and called Kizy, making her understand their motive.
But she just couldn’t understand why someone would target her best friend, who never did anything wrong to others. She knew how Kizy was cold to others and never interfered with other’s business.
Plus these men didn’t look simple at all.
But when she heard the last statement, where they mentioned killing her, she was truly afraid.
Tears started flowing down her eyes while she was shivering visibly. But those men didn’t care.
Though Nina always behaved maturely, this was her first time witnessing a life death situation, that too for threatening her friend to reach some base destination.
She was confused and scared at the sudden turn of events, but she was helpless against them, as she couldn’t even utter a word or even move slightly.
Those men didn’t say anything after coming here, making her fear them even more.
But suddenly a window broke and a man entered through those broken glasses, scaring the hell out of her.
