Chapter 99 - 99. The Cell Phone
He felt that he owed her, and thus he didn’t know what he was supposed to do. During all his teenage years, he had no one by his side who would guide him, telling him what different feelings are or how to interact with people.
Even till the last moment before he fainted, he just felt happy watching Kizy near him. He would feel a different kind of warmth and happiness whenever he held Kizy in his arms. Her scent would soothe him.
But after listening to how she had saved his life, something changed. He felt a foreign feeling bloom in his heart, something he had never experienced before.
But one thing that he knew for sure, was that he was absolutely loving this new feeling. It made him crave for her. He felt as if he was about to go crazy if Kizy was to go away from him.
He waited till Raymond was treated completely, before going to Kizy’s room..
A needle was connected to her wrist, but that only made Aaron feel more pained.
He went near her bed, but didn’t dare to sit near her. After standing for some time, he sat near the edge of her bed, holding her tender and small hand between his huge palms.
Kizy woke up only at dusk, when the night had arrived but there was no light inside the room.
She felt someone sitting near her bedside, and could make a rough silhouette of a man sleeping, his head resting on the bed, his hand holding hers, while he was awkwardly resting on the floor.
It took her some time to adjust to this room’s darkness. But once she could see clearly that the person holding her hand was Aaron, she instantly removed her hand from his grip.
The sudden action made Aaron feel pain from his injured hand, which made him wake up with a groan.
“Uhh.. sorry. I thought this position would hurt you. Why are you sleeping like this though?” Kizy asked, trying to make up some excuse for her sudden action.
“Do you feel unwell?” Aaron asked.
“No, I am good.” Kizy said.
“Is your hand hurting?” She asked after a moment, remembering what all happened before she fainted.
“No, it isn’t.” Aaron said with a smile.
“I feel a little hungry.” Kizy said, wanting to leave this room quickly, where Aaron’s deep gaze was making her uncomfortable.
“Let’s have our dinner then.” Aaron said.
*MARKUS’s HOUSE, A CITY*
“Did you find anything?” Markus asked his men who were standing in front of him.
It was Kizy who had asked him to attack the hotel, and search for anything related to Aaron, whether it was his identity proof or how he received his weapons.
She was the one who had asked him to place those explosive barrels and then asked Aaron’s men to leave the hotel, so that Markus’s men would have enough time to search the rooms.
And once they were done searching, she asked them to blow up the entire building, leavin no trails about her plan.
“Boss we found this cell phone. But we were not able to unlock it.” The captain said and passed the phone to Joel who then gave it to Markus.
“I am sure that I can unlock it, but I will need around 10-12 hours for that. But I am confident that this would definitely have some important information.
Till then, I want you to convey this message to Kizy that she should start planning for her escape. Lucas and grandpa’s other men are already there. They will help her leave C city.” Markus said while examining the phone.
“Yes boss.” Joel said and left the place.
‘We will meet soon my little lamb.’ Markus thought to himself.
*AARON’s BASE, C CITY*
Next day, Kizy freshened up and was about to go to the dining room for her breakfast with Aaron, when Raymond came.
Raymond came and suddenly knelt in front of Kizy.
“I am sorry Miss Kizy. I shouldn’t have doubted your intentions, stopped you from treating Boss and insulted you. I know that this is way too shameless of me to disrespect you yesterday and then come here to apologize today, but that’s the least I can do. Though I don’t ask you to forgive me for my mistake. You can punish me however you want.” Raymond said sincerely.
He had wanted to apologize to Kizy as soon as she was done donating blood to Aaron, but she fainted. And later on Boss and Kizy both needed rest, hence he didn’t disturbed them.
But the guilt that he said mean words to Kizy, even tried to harm his boss unknowingly, was killing him.
All the prejudice he held towards Kizy was gone. Previously he felt she was one of those women who used their beauty trap to trap their boss.
But now, he only felt respect for Kizy. If she was such a shallow person, she would have left Aaron untreated as a simple lackey was insulting her. But she didn’t.
Plus he also came to know that the person who asked Aaron to order them to leave the building was her. Thus she was his life saviour.
With all these thoughts in mind, he wasn’t able to sleep all night. Thus when he knew that Kizy and Aaron were up, he quickly came to apologize.
“First of all get up.” Kizy said, not paying attention to what Raymomd said.
But Raymond kept kneeling. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“I said stand up.” Kizy said in a commanding tone.
“No Miss Kizy. Not till you punish me.” Raymond said firmly.
“Are you dumb? I am asking you to stand up. You have injured your leg and this position will only worsen or might even open your closed wound. So get up. Don’t you care for your body in the least?” Kizy asked worriedly.
“I don’t deserve your kindness Miss Kizy.” Raymond said, still kneeling.
“Aaron, either you ask him to stand up or we aren’t sharing rooms anymore.” Kizy said and the next minute…
“Raymond, why are you destroying my happy life? Get up right now!!” Aaron shouted.
And Raymond who had prepared himself to kneel for hours instantly stood up, knowing what was important.
“Look I don’t want your apology. What you did was right as a loyal man. So I won’t hold you accountable for that. Just don’t ask me for any punishments.” Kizy said and left for her breakfast.
But Aaron knew that she left hurriedly as she was flustered from Raymond’s apology.
“Dare you argue with her again.” Aaron said and left the room.
‘No. I will never go against her. I made a mistake once, but I won’t repeat that twice. If there comes a time, I am ready to pay back with my life.’ Raymond thought to himself.
Kizy and Aaron finished their breakfast and went back to their room. Kizy was scrolling down her phone when Aaron passed her a file.
“What is this?” Kizy asked after looking at the intricately designed file.
“Our weapon details. Everything from our buyers and sellers to the black market we own.” Aaron said.
“What are you doing?” Kizy asked confusedly.
“Introducing you to my world. Showing how much I trust you.” Aaron said with a smile.
Kizy immediately closed the file and returned it to Aaron.
“No no. I don’t need this to know your trust. Keep it for yourself.” She said, pushing back the file in his hands.
“Relax and read it Kizy.” Aaron said calmly.
“I don’t want t-” Kizy was speaking when Aaron interjected.
“Relax and read it.” Aaron said again, this time in a gentle but commanding voice.
Kizy looked at him one last time, expecting he would take the file back but he didn’t. Thus she took a deep breath before opening the file.
And she was truly introduced to his black market, his world. Details of each single weapon present in the weapon room, ranging from the day and time it was brought to its price, everything was mentioned in it.
“You have dealings with Falcon!!??” Kizy exclaimed.
“You know him?” Aaron asked surprisingly.
When Kizy had mentioned the three routes for weapon buying, he thought she knew a little about them. But after hearing this name, he was sure that whatever Kizy knew about weapon dealings was definitely not little knowledge.
“Met him once. Though both of us don’t know how we actually look.” Kizy said fleetingly, as if she didn’t care.
But she had purposefully mentioned this to show that she was regular with the business and by telling this info, she was showing that she didn’t hide anything from him.
“I have never even met him yet.” Aaron said, with admiration.
“If there comes a chance, I will take you to meet him.” Kizy said, reading the whole file within minutes.
And it wasn’t difficult for her photographic memory to learn all the details.
Aaron and Kizy discussed some more and then Aaron left with the file. He hadn’t been in public for the past two days. Hene he thought of making an appearance for a huge charity show.
But Kizy had some other plans for him.
