Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga-Chapter 38 - 38. Thick Skinned

"May be sending me to the newly built survival test, or sparring with the guards continously for a day, or may be 100 hits or the worst, sending me on some complicated mission." Markus replied indifferently.

"Let's choose the worst then." Grandpa said before sitting behind the study desk.

"I want you to go to City C." Grandpa replied.

"Is that because of Kizy?" Marlus replied with some interest.

He only knew that Kizy had been living in City C before returning back to City A. But other than that, her life in city C was a complete mystery to him.

"Yeah.. Though I don't doubt Kizy, but the thing that we have not been able to uncover her background for past one month is our biggest failure till date.

If people are able to hide themselves from us even after investigating for one month, we don't know what they might have been planning behind our backs without alarming us at all.

Also we definitely don't want a potential threat now that we have finally managed to settle down our business as well as underworld chaos after two years.

Thus I want you to personally go and find clues from her previous city and her job. May be we will find something unexpected out of this." Grandpa finished speaking his thoughts.

"You don't doubt Kizy but the power behind them, right? But I don't think this is the only reason for sending me." Markus caught the main point.

"Yeah. Afterall her actions are too suspicious to be normal. She has definitely been trained though she hides it well. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

On top of it, your dad's accident was too suspicious back then. We were not able to thoroughly investigate the matter as many powers were trying to fight for our throne.

Now that we have settled all these things, its time to find the culprits and make them pay for there sins." Grandpa said with a trembling voice full of hatred, anger and regret.

"Grandpa you have got some lead on dad's case right?" Markus spoke, trying to divert the topic.

"You are totally worthy of being your dad's son. The truck driver who had commited suicide after knowing that our people were chasing him, he was seen in city C two days ago." Grandpa said.

And Markus didn't needed any more hints. He knew what he had to do now.

"But you won't be taking Kizy and Joel along with you. That will make her feel that we are suspecting her. So let her stay back in the company to handle other business issues.

I can see that she has great potential, and if given the right guidance, no body would compare to her in this field. And Joel would be of great help to her.

Also if some major matter crops up, i will personally go and handle it. So just bring your men this mission." Grandpa ordered.

"But I need Joel with me." Markus complained.

"Yeah you need him so that you can order him around. Anyways you like ordering Kizy and Joel, so consider this as my punishment. You won't have both of them to serve you this entire time." Grandpa said with a grin.

"Fine." Markus said before turning around and leaving the room.

Though he was angry at his grandfather for this unnecessary punishment, but he now had an even greater task at his hands - to search that damn culprit who had killed his father.

For others, it was nothing more than a random car accident but only he, grandpa, grandma and his mom knew that there was more to it.

On the other hand Kizy, Mary and grandma were returning back to main hall after having a long walk. The group of ladies talked about there likes and dislikes, there views ranging from topics like shopping and handling home to complicated business matters.

Kizy liked how both mom and grandma were the type of independent females that she liked. They had there own opinions and had strong personalities. Kizy sincerely liked both these ladies from the bottom of her heart.

"Lets finish with our lunch quickly. We still have meeting at office." Markus said, succesfully attracting attention of all three women.

"Whats there to hurry? Stay for some more time." Mary said.

"No let him go. He has already postponed the meeting once, it won't look good if he would repeat that twice." Grandpa said while coming out from his study.

"Yes father." Mary said.

The family of five had a warm dinner, something that Kizy had never expected. She always thought that filthy rich people like them won't have a proper familial bond.

But in this house, all that she could witness was love and care for each other. All of them tried to spend time together as much time as possible.

"Kizy, do visit us whenever you are free. Anyways me and Mary have ample amount of time on our hands." Grandma said while walking them out till the car.

"Yes Grandma I will." Kizy said politely.

"Grandpa please take care of your health, winters are arriving." Kizy spoke while looking at grandpa.

"Buy me some warm clothes then." Grandpa replied in a childish way.

"Ok I will bring them next time." Kizy said and turned towards Mary.

"Mom though I am not that knowledgeable, but if you ever need me for business, please let me know." Kizy said with a smile.

Mary simply smiled and nodded.

Markus just said a monotonous 'goodbye' to all of them before leaving with Kizy.

"You never told me that Mom has her independent business. She is the mysterious CEO behind 'Purple'!! And look at me, I bought her a dress from her own shop. I felt so embarassed after knowing how stupid I was. How would mom feel about this?" Kizy complained Markus.

'Purple' was a high end luxury clothing brand for past decade. The brand had entered in international market three years ago, claiming the title of most expensive brand in country.

Just that Kizy was ignorant about the expensive part of this brand, thus buying there latest peice at such price.

"She would know that you were unaware of this thing. What's there to be embarassed in it? And how come a thick skinned person like you know what embarassement is?" Markus said.

"You... fine... I will definitely show you what being thick-skinned is. Hmmph!" with that Kizy turned, facing the window ignoring Markus.

Soon they reached the company. As usual Kizy and Markus climbed inside elevator number 1 and Kizy pressed for there office floor. But unknown to Markus, she also pressed for floor 1, where all the employees worked.

'Now you will know the consequences of bullying me.' Kizy thought to herself. Just as the elevator was about to reach 1st floor, Kizy pulled Markus before saying...
