Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

"That's fine. I have already learnt all the important exercises as well as fighting techniques. I can simply practice on my own." Kizy said nonchalantly, while a small smile could be seen on her face that she was trying to hide.

Nicole so wanted to scold Kizy, but after watching her small smile that had appeared on her face after almost a week, she could not make it in herself to even lecture her.

"There are still a few things that I haven't taught you yet." Nicole said, trying to look as if she was pissed.

"Then what can I do? When I will have a fight with someone and they will beat me up into a pulp, only then you will realise how grave of a mistake you committed by not teaching me." Kizy said, able to see through what Nicole was trying to do.

"Fine Lady Boss, I give up! You win. But nobody will ever be able to even touch a strand of your hair till I am alive." Nicole said before leaving the office, unable to see the change in Kizy's eyes.

"Lady boss, you called for me." A middle aged lady, with spectacles placed on her nose knocked on the office door.

"Come inside." Kizy said, signing the last page of the document before looking up.

The lady stood there ramrod straight, her admiration for Kizy visible through her eyes.

"Have a seat." Kizy gestured, which the lady followed obediently.

"We have come up with a new product with 'Aurum'. They have developed a set of gold jewelleries for day to day life as well as for occasions. I want your department to come up with a good marketing strategy for the brand." Kizy explained the task in a few words.

"Lady boss, may I suggest something?" The lady asked politely.

"Yeah sure." Kizy said, attentively listening to what the lady had to say.

"If this set is truly valuable, can we postpone its market opening?" The lady questioned.

"And may I know the reason why?" Kizy asked professionally, knowing that a senior member won't suggest something randomly for no reason.

"Last time when they came up with the couple sets, we didn't do any advertisement or even simple promotions.

You and Boss were wearing their earrings and brooch sets at the year end celebration. Similarly you both wore their couple rings after winning games on the same occasion. The photos went viral and the brooch, earrings as well as the couple rings received a huge positive response from the audience.

After that, we promoted some jewelleries, even letting professional and successful actors and actresses act for the advertisement, but none of them were as successful as your rings were.

So if this new collection is important, I think it would be better to wait till the boss returns so that both of you could wear them to raise the sales without even advertising." The lady said, sincere about her suggestion.

'Hmmm. How good it would be to do this. But I don't even know when Markus will return. I can not leave 'Aurum' hanging and waiting till then though. What should I do? What to do??' Kizy was thinking hard while the lady waited patiently for her answer.

"I have some people who might help in this. Let me discuss this with them. If everything is clear, I will let you know." Kizy said, and the lady stood up, about to leave the office.

"Could you please ask Nicole and Joel to visit me while you return?" Kizy asked, making the lady worship her even more by her down to earth nature.

But what the lady didn't know was that Kizy was always like that, respectful and polite to everyone.

And though she had been on her cold mode since this week, she hadn't made any wrong decisions, or behaved inappropriately with anyone.

"Yes lady boss." She said before bowing respectfully and leaving the office.

'I will forever work hard for Boss and Lady boss.' The lady thought in high spirits while calling Nicole and Joel on her way back.

Soon a knock was heard on the office door and Kizy knew who was standing outside.

"Enter." She said, and Joel entered the office.

"You don't have to knock Joel, how many times should I repeat?" Kizy said monotonously.

"Young madam, the thing is I am used to knocking on this door for three years now. I can not suddenly stop my habit. Similarlly if I get habitual to not knocking, I might repeat the same when boss is back." Joel said, thinking that Kizy was angry at him because of her monotonous voice.

But the thing was she had been the same since past one week, not showing any emotions on her face and talking in the same voice.

Markus leaving her suddenly had definitely taken a huge toll on her body and mind, and though she was using work and exercise as distractions, Joel knew that Kizy was only damaging her health.

He had heard Nicole say that she saw Kizy turn her lights off at 2 am yesterday night. He was afraid that Markus would definitely not like the way Kizy had been living in his absence.

"You don't have to knock even when he returns then. I will ask him to do so." Kizy said nonchalantly, as if talking about Markus didn't mean anything to her.

When in reality every time she called his name or heard someone mentioning him, her heart would ache, and she was suppressing all her emotions to turn them into her weapon when the time arrived.

This was the reason why she was working hard to build her body, even at the toll of over exhaustion, so that when the day arrives, she could stand by his side and fight the world together with him, instead of being the useless burden she was right now.

"You called me?" Nicole asked after entering.
