With all of the situation known to her mom, Kizy had to call Markus back to hospital for meeting with Kate. She went out of the ward to wait for him at the gate and to tell him something before he met her mom.

“Look first of all sorry for first sending you and then calling you back. But i couldn’t hide anything from my mom, and ended up telling evrything to her. But i just have one request. Will you please act like a real husband and not mock or insult me in front of her” Kizy said.

“What do you mean by act like a real husband? Don’t forget wifey that i am your real husband?” Markus smirked.

“I mean could you just act as if you care a lot about me? I know i am asking a lot but i just want my mom to not worry about my relationship with you” Kizy was almost pleading now.

“Off course i always care for you my little lamb. Can you not see that? Don’t worry, i will make sure that both you and your mom will be able to see it now” Markus said and without waiting for Kizy, went towards the ward. .

“Hello mom, I am Markus. And i want to apologies to you” Markus said sincerely. Kizy was in awe with his flawless performance. How could he change his demeanour so suddenly.

Kate was still angry at this newfound son-in-law. She even imagined him to be very ugly, fat or bald with a round belly or may be someone who was advanced in age. She knew her daughter was a complete beauty and men would definitely want to marry her, but she didn’t understand that if not for some problem with the man, why will he force her to marry him.

But looking at Markus, her initial descriptions for her supposed son-in-law were all shattered. If Kizy was like a lone silver flower in a garden full of weeds, then this man standing in front of her would be the moon shining alone in the dark sky.

Kate didn’t knew how to a man could look this fine. She always felt that her daughter was way beyond beautiful and no man in this world deserved her. But with Markus facing her, she felt that no other man could match Kizy more than him. They looked like a match made in heaven. Though he possessed a refined but cold aura, it was in no way diminishing her daughter’s cold beauty.

“Hello Markus. And what do you want to apologize for” Kate asked after checking him out from head to toe.

“Actually mom i have liked Kizy since the time we were classmates. But at that time, i was too shy to confess my feeling, and together with her cold personality i felt that she would break our friendship if i was to propose her.” He said slowly before continuing.

“But when we were studying in our last year, some minor issue came up in my family and i had to drop out from the college. After that i had to take over my family business and stabilise it completely. It took me two years to achieve this. But in those two years, i never had a single minute for myself, whenever i would get some time to rest, i would always think about Kizy.” With that he turned to look at Kizy with tender eyes.

“After those two years of hardships, i thought that i could confess my feelings for Kizy, but unfortunately nobody knew where she was. I had been continuously searching for her for the past one year. Amd suddenly yesterday she came to me on her own while searching for me. Mom can you imagine how much happiness i felt at the moment i finally saw her? I was happy to know that i have grown up into someone who was needed by Kizy. She told me about your situation. I know it was wrong for me to take advantage of her in such a state, but i didn’t knew when will i get this opportunity again. Thus i forced her to marry me. But mom rest assured, i guarantee that with me here, Kizy would never suffer. But what is done is done and i know my mistake. So mom you can punish me for my selfish act, but i plead you to not take her away from me again. I have already suffered three years of loneliness and i don’t want to experience that hell again” Marlus finished and took a deep breath.

He had poured all his emotions out, with every expression on point. He paused at the right time, his eyes were filled with a tenderness whenever he uttered the word ‘Kizy’ and he was so grieved while talking about all those years he had to spend without her.

Even Kate was surprised at the turn of events. She never imagined that such and outstanding man would be willing to do anything for her daughter. She had no more complaints left with this son-in-law.

And about all the events he mentioned, she was well aware about them. After Kizy completed her degree, a major incident happened. With Kizy’s temper, she could no longer stay at that place. Thus they had left this city and went to a comparitively smaller city adjacent to this city. Kizy worked there for three years but recently she got herself into a major problem within her company and thus they had to return back to this city. And then this accident happened.

Meanwhile the most stunned person in the ward right now was standing behind Markus. Kizy had been listening to all the non sense that Markus was speaking. Beat her to death yet she would have never imagined that this was how Markus meant to show his ‘affection’ for her. She was secretly cursing Markus for performing this heavenly in his self scripted drama. If Oscar could be awarded for such day to day acting, she would have presented it to him without any arguements.

How can he lie so much without even batting an eyelid. For god’s sake he was talking about her the entire time, but only she knew that every single word he said was the complete opposite of what he actually meant. If not for all those horrible experiences she had always caused by him and for knowing his true nature all these years, even she would have definitely moved to tears by now.

Thank you for your support. Have a great day.
