Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga - Chapter 163

“You don’t have to do anything grandpa. Just get ready in time and enter the venue while holding hands with grandma.” Kizy said with a grin.

“Naughty kid. Haha..” Grandpa said, laughing and shaking his head a little.

Markus and Kizy walked grandpa to his car and sent him away.

“Are the preparations done?” Markus asked, turning to look towards Joel.

“Yes boss. I have crosschecked everything twice. The security is already present. No one would be able to enter without checking.” Joel replied.

“Ok. You can have some rest. But don’t be late for the evening banquet.” Markus said to Joel.

“Yes boss. Thank you.” Joel said and left, leaving Markus and Kizy behind.

“Let’s head home now.” Kizy said to Markus and both of them left for home.

As usual, Markus had already asked his people to dress up Kizy along with the required accessories and makeup, so even Kizy didn’t have much work to do.

*EVENING, CELEBRATION BANQUET VENUE*

Grandpa, Grandma, Mary, Markus and Kizy were already present at the location early. Together they welcomed all the guests personally, something they had never done in the past.

Even the company employees were received with warm greetings.

The approved people from the media and other reporters were also allowed inside.

Once all the guests had settled down, Markus went to the stage, followed by Kizy behind him.

Today he was wearing a maroon turtleneck paired with black silvery ombre trousers and a blazer, a look completely different from his usual solid monochrome tuxedos. He was even wearing a golden diamond brooch along with it, rocking the outfit with his intimidating aura.

While Kizy was clad in black maroon ombre gown. With a halter neck, a silver belt at waist and silver heels, she looked no less than a model on a ramp. She had worn minimal accessories, a silver bracelet and earring similar to Markus’s brooch, while she had straightened her hairs and left them into a low ponytail.

Both of them, though wearing different outfits, seemed to be twinning because of the color combination while giving off their own unique vibes.

The audience was left in awe by the power couple, or more accurately the visual couple standing in front of them. Though outshining everyone else at the venue, they weren’t diminishing each other’s presence at all.

“Good evening everyone!! Today we are having this banquet for two reasons. First one is, as you all know, it is grandpa’s birthday. Thus like every year, we will be celebrating it.

Secondly, today I completed three years with ‘Stardust’ and I wanted to make new changes in our business. So what better day can I have other than this occasion.” Markus said and took a pause, to let the audience understand that he was about to start with new changes.

“Today I feel happy and honoured to announce my first partnership, that too with none other than my mom, i.e. with ‘Purple’.” Markus said and the audience gasped.

Because no matter what they had done, or how many times they had attempted, ‘Stardust’ had never accepted any partnership project with anyone.

Secondly, they were a little shocked to see this man drop his cold aura a little. The usually cold faced Markus appeared a bit warm today.

“But I have another piece of news for you all. Not only ‘Purple’, but I have partnered with two more companies in the past two weeks.” Markus said and this time people were truly stunned.

Because earlier they thought that though ‘Stardust’ had collaborated with ‘Purple’, it was because they were family members. Thus the audience never thought that they stood any chance.

But knowing that ‘Stardust’ had partnered with two more companies they started hoping that they still might stand a chance to have a partnership with ‘Stardust’.

“These two companies are ‘The Eternity’ and ‘Aurum’. I thank both of them for this wonderful partnership and I wish we could do even greater projects with them in future!” Markus said.

“What? ‘The Eternity’? That brand has already fallen for a long while now!”

“I think the suit Markus is wearing today would be from ‘Purple’. This is not his style.”

“Woah!! Finally my favourite perfume brand will gain recognition.”

“Why are they partnering with ‘Aurum’? Isn’t that a jewellery shop?”

“Can anyone propose a partnership with ‘Stardust’ now?”

All sorts of comments were quickly made between the audience.

“Also I have another major piece to announce. ‘Stardust’ will now open a funding firm which will be loaning money to others at affordable interest.

With all the announcements made, I now declare that we can start with the celebration.” Markus said and left the stage along with Kizy, holding hands together.

Immediately MC came upon the stage, starting various games to keep people entertained.

There were some games which were meant for couples, and the audience was already crazy as Markus and Kizy entered the games together.

They danced, sang and played various games, even asking grandpa, grandma and Mary to play some games with them.

Finally only the last game was remaining, which was meant for couples.

“Okay so this round would be interesting, as it has been sponsored by ‘Aurum’. The winning couple would be getting couple rings as a gift. So are you all ready?” The MC shouted, trying to hype the audience up.

“Should we join this?” Markus asked Kizy.

“What will people say? We have already participated in four games and won them all. People would say that we were cheating as we are the organizers.” Kizy said, laughing hard.

They were still talking when the audience below started cheering for Markus and Kizy, calling them ‘MarKiz’ and asking them to participate.

“Doesn’t look like they are tired or complaining about our winning though.” Markus said with a smirk.

“And what’s with this ‘MarKiz’? I have such a beautiful name. Why are they ruining it?” Kizy asked.

“Anyways, let’s go. Or you will have to keep listening to this ruined name.” Markus said and dragged Kizy towards the stage where other couples were present.
