"Jealous? And me?" Kizy said, her tone completely careless.
"No no wifey. It is me who is always jealous. Sorry for the earlier incident." Markus immediately said, his tone polite.
"What are you sorry for? You didn't do anything wrong!" Kizy said dramatically before turning around and stepping out of the door.
"What were you doing!!??" Markus shouted at Joel before running behind Kizy.
'Why are you shouting at me? How could a small employee like me dare to stop a leading female CEO? I just don't have the power to do so! Why shout on my poor soul?' Joel thought sadly.
"Kizy!! KIZYY!" Markus shouted behind Kizy who simply entered inside Joel's office.
"Why are you entering Joel's office?" Markus asked.
"This is my office." Kizy said, finally looking at Markus.
"Huhh?" Markus asked, not knowing what Kizy meant.
"This would be my office. My health is not in good condition and I need to recuperate silently while doing my job. So Joel will be staying and working in your office while I will work here." Kizy said while sitting on the chair behind the desk.
"Kizy please don't be like this. How can I work without watching your pretty face. Joel's face will only ruin my mood." Markus said, trying to calm his raging wife.
"Just like you were working moments before my entry." Kizy said, once again going back to her cold tone.
And Markus was stumped for words.
"Its not like that. I was just saving her from falling. And why are you getting so riled up over that. You getting angrier only proves that you were jealous." Markus spoke.
"Why should I be jealous? Or wait a minute. You want me to return to your office. Right?" Kizy asked.
"Yes. Exactly." Markus replied.
"Then I have one condition." Kizy said, pointing out one finger.
"And what is it?" Markus asked, having a negative feeling about Kizy's sudden condition.
"Only you will be the representative for Glitter's partnership. And only that woman can be the representative from their side. The entire project will be done by you two." Kizy said, her voice monotonous.
"What? Why? I mean why are you doing this?" Markus asked, not being able to believe that his very own wife wanted him to work with the woman who has actually caused this entire scene.
"Just to prove that I am not jealous of some woman." Kizy said nonchalantly.
"Ok I trust that you were not jealous. Please just take your condition back." Markus said, not wanting to have anymore contact with Athena.
Who would have known that the deadly Mafia king, Satan, would be seen pleading his wife to not push him towards another woman.
"No I won't. Either you let me work in this separate office or you go with my condition. There is no other option." Kizy said, knowing full well that she was going a little overboard, but somewhere deep she knew that in reality she was jealous of Athena, but it was something that she didn't want to accept.
"Kizy, don't make it difficult for me. I am truly serious. I promise I will stay metres away from that woman but no more conditions please." Markus said, his voice complaining.
"No third option." Kizy said, firm on her stance.
Markus thought for a minute before speaking.
"Fine. Get back to the office. I will go with your condition." Markus said unhappily.
Kizy nodded her head before getting up and walking back to Markus's office, followed by a dejected Markus behind.
"Why are you still here? Go back to your work." Markus said angrily to Joel.
"Ye.. Yes boss." Joel said.
'Young Miss and Boss were talking in my office. How was I supposed to go and work there? Poor me.' Joel said, almost crying internally while leaving.
Next few days were pretty normal, where Athena would frequently visit the company. But during all the visits, Kizy would excuse herself and go away.
Somehow Athena was well behaved these days as she was completely formal during the visits, without taking any initiatives against Markus.
Finally the last day arrived, when Markus was going to hold a press meeting along with Glitter for their recent partnership announcement.
All the media had arrived before the allotted time to capture the collaboration of two huge companies.
Alas Athena arrived in a white car, wearing white silvery strapless gown, her silver high heels making click clack noise, attracting all the attention.
"Woah! Miss. Athena looks so stunning today!"
"I think she will be stealing all the limelight this time."
"Isn't that the latest dress from Purple?"
"She definitely has my heart!"
The entire audience was immediately into a frenzy as soon as Athena stepped on the stage.
People were still busy admiring her when a black maybach arrived, making the entire crowd go silent, awaiting the arrival of their Power couple.
Markus, wearing an entire black outfit first climbed out of the car, before extending his hand for Kizy.
And the next moment, Kizy stepped out of the car, making millions of hearts stop beating for a moment. But the next second, the crowd went wild, especially after watching her outfit.
"What's wrong with the outfit?"
"Are we shooting some drama?"
"Is the rumour about Miss. Athena impressing Mr. Markus true?"
"Is this truly a coincidence or a pre planning?"
The reporters atrated commenting on the dress.
Kizy and Markus, who could hear some of them immediately turned to look at Athena and finally understood what the people were speaking about.
"Well played." Kizy said with a smirk.
