Chapter 2 - 2. Thank You
Markus stood behind Kizy for a moment before signalling his secretary, Joel. And he didn’t needed to be told twice. He immediately made some calls and soon an entire line of elite doctors was standing outside the door.
“Mr. Markus you should have told me before arriving. We would have welcomed you at our gate” head of Unity Hospital, Dr. Wen said.
Markus just fleetingly glanced at him before turning to look inside the room.
“May i know how we can help you Mr. Markus?” Dr. Wen still showed his utmost respect while speaking politely.
.
“Why has my mother-in-law not been treated yet?” Markus asked in a cold voice. And suddenly the temperature in corridor went down by ten degrees.
The head doctor immediately had his forehead covered in sweat while glancing questioningly at the remaining doctors. When all of them showed a similar expression of denial, he understood that was in grave danger.
“Mr. Markus i am truly sorry for the ignorant behaviour that our staff has shown. We won’t delay another minute and treat your mother-in-law with utmost care” by the end, his voice was shaking badly.
“I want her to recieve the best treatment that you can provide or i will make sure that people would forget that there was some small hospital known as Unity” Markus said slowly.
All the doctors and staff immediately felt a chill down there spine. They didn’t tarry for another moment before quickly running inside the room and transferring Kizy’s mother, Kate to the VVIP ward.
Kizy was still standing dazedly inside the last ward. She had heard every single statement that Markus said. Though she didn’t wanted to agree, she never expected him to do much.
She thought that the most Markus would do was to ask the hospital to treat her mom. Never in her dreams had she imagined that Markus would end up terrorizing the entire hospital just for her mom.
But more than admiration, what Kizy felt was self reproach. She always felt that she was strong and independent. But today she ended up realising how weak and helpless she was. If not for Markus, she was sure that even the nurses won’t be willing to give a second glance to her unconscious mom.
“So how was my performance my little lamb” no one knew when Markus had entered the ward and came this close to Kizy. Kizy felt his hot breath near her shoulder before turning to him and taking a step back.
She gave a deep bow to Markus before lifting her head.
“Thank you.” she said with utmost sincerity.
Markus was stunned by her gesture. It took him some time to digest the sincerity Kizy was showing him, as this was not something that he was used to. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
He cleared his throat before holding her shoulders with both of his hands.
“Oh my darling. How can you thank your husband like this? You are my wife and your family is my family. It is my responsibility to take care of your mom” Markus said with dramatic expressions.
Kizy didn’t believe even a single word from this. But she was grateful that he had started treatment for her mom. Though she would never accept him as her husband, but she made a mental note that she would definitely pay him back for this huge debt.
A nurse informed them that her mother would be undergoing a surgery now and they could wait outside the operation theatre. Kizy ignored Markus and followed behind the nurse at a quick pace.
Soon she reached outside the operation theatre and stood in front of those doors.
“I am not sure if standing there for one hour would help the doctors in some way. But what i am sure of is, you won’t be able to accompany your mom, once she is out of this room” Markus then moved his gaze towards her legs.
“I mean your legs would be numb and you will only add up as a burden for me to carry then” Markus continued while leisurely sitting on the bench with his devilish grin.
Kizy silently lowered her head before walking towards the opposite bench and sitting on it. She did not wanted to argue with Markus, thus she was trying her best to obey his demands without refuting him.
But this was exactly what was irking him. The Kizy he knew would always fight till the end, no matter how small or big the issue would be.
Kizy sitting opposite to him was obeying everything he said. Whether he mocked or insulted her, she was silently accepting it without a single word of rebutal.
“I have already asked my men to shift all your luggage from that so called house of yours to my home. From today onwards you will be residing there with me” Markus tried to give another push. And he recieved the response he was waiting for.
“Mr. Markus, i understand that both of us are legally married but can you not see the situation around you? My mother is undergoing a surgery. Once she is out, she will need me. I am not coming home till my mom is discharged” Kizy spoke in a firm voice.
“Mr Markus!! How sweet of you to address your husband this way. Now listen. I don’t give a shit about your situation. Don’t try my patience. If i say you are coming home with me today, that means you have to come” Markus said with his eyebrow raised.
