Chapter 245 245. Markus Leaving Company To Kizy

"First of all, our branch in country F is facing some issues and I need to visit that branch for the same.

I will be leaving this company on your shoulders till then. Kizy will stay here for the time being and you all can always contact her directly for any company related matter.

Secondly, news about my absence for this period is to be kept a secret and hence only you people have been invited to the meeting instead of the rest of all.

Similarly you all know the consequences of breaking any company news or information to the outsiders, so i need not to repeat that.

And lastly, Kizy's decision would be the final call and I hope all of you will respect and accept her decisions as gladly as you do for me.

You all have been one of the earliest and most trusted members of this company, so many of you might doubt her capabilities, but trust me she is more than that.

Alas, I just want all of you to cooperate with each other and help the company progress in my absence." Markus said and ended his speech.

"Any doubts?" Markus asked, giving the members enough time to understand all the points Markus said.

Finally one old man raised his hand, to which Markus gave a nod, signalling he was permitted to speak.

"Though Miss Kizy is capable enough and I admire her for that, she is still a little inexperienced. Many of the matters don't just require a brain but some unique solutions that come with years of experience. What will we do in such times?" The man said, remaining polite throughout his talk.

Markus just turned to Kizy, waiting for her to answer the question.

"That is why we all are working together. Though I am inexperienced, you all have been with the company through thick and thin. We will face and solve the problems together. Similarly if we are still stuck, we can always trouble grandpa a little." Kizy said, smiling at the end, making all the members smile and nod at her answer.

"Any other doubt?" Markus asked, satisfied with his wife's answer.

A middle aged lady with sharp looks raised her hand, wanting to ask another question.

"Yes." Markus said, asking for the lady to proceed.

"Boss, from what you said, I assume that you'll be absent for quite some time. But we always have some or other public occasions where you are supposed to show up. Once or twice is okay, but how will we explain your absence every time? Plus you want this matter to remain a secret." The lady said, bringing attention to another major issue.

"You don't have to worry about that. Kizy will soon be announcing some major news. After that, none of us are required to have any public appearance. All of you only have to work harder to strive for more success in our company. Rest assured, all other issues will be handled by Kizy effectively." Markus answered, showing time and time again that he had blind trust in Kizy.

Thankfully 'Stardust' was not some regular company. The employees knew their boundaries and were professional enough to not invade others' privacy.

Even if their boss would have asked them to run the company without any leader, they would have done it without any questions.

The only basic rule in 'Stardust' was to not stick your nose in others' business and not to leak any company related information to the outsiders.

"Anything else?" Markus asked again in a patient and authoritative tone.

But this time nobody raised their hand and hence the meeting came to an end.

"Grandpa asked us to drop by the house for dinner." Markus said to Kizy while entering his office.

"Let's do that." Kizy nodded.

The couple spent their entire day working hard, where Markus would explain some files or projects in between which would be beneficial for Kizy while handling the company in the coming future.

Ultimately the sky turned dark and both Kizy and Markus left the building.

Within half an hour they were already standing at the gates of Evans mansion, Kizy holding Markus's arm while entering.

"Finally you remember you have a mother and grandparents!!" Grandpa instantly started the moment he saw Markus entering.

But the next second, his demeanour changed, especially after watching Kizy by his grandson's side.

"Child you look so thin!! Come, have a seat here. I will immediately ask the chef to prepare some healthy snacks for you." Grandpa said while patting the seat next to him.

Kizy giggled after watching the difference in treatment towards her and Markus. To tease Markus further, she instantly left him and went to grandpa's side, making Markus sulk behind her.

"No need to ask the chef. I have already prepared a lot of snacks for her." Grandma said while entering the hall before looking at Kizy.

"Don't forget to take them back with you. They can be stored and eaten anytime for almost a month. I have also prepared soup for you. Let's finish that before it gets cold." Grandma said, ignoring Markus completely, who was left standing at the door.

"You both do remember that you do have a grandson right?" Finally Marlus asked in a sulking tone.

"No." Grandpa said.

"Definitely not. Especially not the one who chases his family away who is there to meet their granddaughter in law and then disappears with her for an entire week." Grandma chirped in.

"Grandma it's not like that-" Kizy tried to speak, but grandpa interrupted her.

"You don't have to worry Kizy. We will never blame you. But this brat needs to learn all this. I will have to discipline him." Grandpa said.

"Grandpa? Like seriously? Wasn't she there with me? Then how come I am the only one who is getting all the scolds?" Markus asked, now annoyed.

"Say another word and I'll make sure you remain hungry till tomorrow morning." Grandma threatened, making Markus instantly shut his mouth.

'I was definitely adopted.' Markus thought to himself while crying internally, watching grandpa, grandma and Kizy walk towards the dining room.
