Chapter 73 - 73. Is Someone Trying To Kill Me?

'What's with all these green vegetables? I never ordered anything like this! And what is this, looks a little like pasta but what the hell is this man?' Kizy thought while making sour faces.

'Wait. Is someone trying to kill me? Maybe they have poisoned these dishes and want to secretly eradicate me. Huh but aren't you underestimating this woman a little too much? Because I can detect any poison just by a single whiff, what's with these full bowls?' Kizy smirked to herself.

But once again she was shocked after checking out all the dishes carefully.

'How is this possible? The order isn't mine. Plus there is nothing wrong with the food as well. Did the hotel make a mistake?' Kizy thought confusedly.

And this confusion was immediately cleared when she picked up the soup bowl. A note was hidden beneath it.

"I'll be ordering your meals from now on and don't even think about making any excuses. Also dare you don't finish them, I'll make sure you'll be back home then. And drop the idea of throwing these dishes out as well.

-M"

"You… you will always be the devil you are. Why can't you let me enjoy a single meal happily? Being so bossy all around. Worst person to ever exist on this earth!! It's good that people are cursing you. You deserve that!!" Kizy shouted, knowing that Markus could hear her voice through the recorder.

*MARKUS's HOUSE, A CITY"

"Dumb woman!! Don't you know what's good for yourself. You have the guts to speak like this even when I am caring about you? And people are cursing because they think I cheated on you. If not for him falling for you, I would have shown you cheating on me. But I just wanted to save your reputation. Yet you speak ill about me. You just wait!!" Markus said angrily, scaring away all his men.

'Ladyboss please return soon. It hasn't even been an entire day, yet the boss is scaring the shit out of us. Please save us. You are our only hope.' The men along with Joel cried silent tears for the Nth time today.

Markus composed himself before speaking to Joel.

"Any news from his side?" Markus asked.

"No boss. He has been staying in his hotel since he returned. But his men are increasing in our area, especially the region near the branch of Gazebo hotel where Young Miss is staying." Joel reported.

"Double the security over there. I want her safe and sound, no matter what situation arises." Markus ordered.

"Yes boss." Joel replied.

The remaining night went by uneventfully, but Markus couldn't fall asleep no matter what he tried.

"Arrrghhh!! Why am I not feeling sleepy?" Markus shouted inside his bedroom.

'Maybe because I think something might happen to that dumb woman?' He thought.

'No no that can't be! I have already checked her security myself. She would never feel insecure. But then what is it?' He thought again.

'Am I getting used to sleeping with her?' Markus thought after sometime.

'No no not at all! This would never ever happen. I am Markus! Someone who never gets habitual or addicted to anything. Me and getting used to her presence? This can not happen.' Markus convinced himself.

Thus his entire night went in guessing over his reason for not being able to sleep while he had at least successfully convinced himself that it has got nothing to do with Kizy.

Next morning Kizy woke up early and freshened up. She looked way better than she did yesterday.

And once again the bell rang. 

'Who is it now? Must be my breakfast sent by that devil.' Kizy thought to herself.

But this time she was wise enough to first check out through the peephole before opening her door.

And contrary to her expectations, it was the blue eyed man.

'Not again.' Kizy thought frustratedly before going back to the bedroom. She wasn't interested in opening the door for this man, at least not for now. 

Plus Markus had already told her that she was to ignore that man for the first few days, and this was exactly what she had wanted.

With this thought in mind, she started to happily play games on her phone. But somehow the doorbell kept ringing insistently, irritating her to no end.

'What the hell!' Kizy thought before going towards the door.

"Get lost!!" Kizy shouted through the closed door, knowing that he could hear her. 

But there was no end to the doorbell ringing.

"Do you have a death wish?" Kizy shouted again.

And yet there was no reply from the other side.

"Guess you want to die early." Kizy said while unwillingly opening the door a little.

"I will die happily if you were the last person I saw before dying. Maybe even better if you would be the one to kill me." The blue eyed man said calmly.

"What now?" Kizy ignored his blazing gaze and asked frustratingly.

"Be my woman." The man replied, still standing outside.

"I am in no mood to talk with you. My life is already presenting me with enough thrill, I don't want anything additional." Kizy said coldly.

"How will you know how additional will feel without trying it yourself? Give yourself a chance to be cherished, baby girl." The man replied.

"I don't want your nonsense. If that's all, please leave." Kizy spoke coldly.

"Do you have to be so cold with me?" Tha man asked.

"Leave now if you don't want to be insulted anymore." Kizy spoke.

"Haha.. I love your attitude. Maybe that's exactly what attracted me towards you." He replied.

Kizy was done with his stupid talk and hence she was planning to slam the door shut on his face.

But….
