Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga - Chapter 207
“He went to meet Nina.” Markus replied nonchalantly.
“Why?” Kizy asked.
She was briefly told about all the things that happened when she and Markus went to C city.
“He wanted to get his injuries treated.” Markus replied.
“Is he severely injured?” Kizy asked in a worried tone.
“I don’t think so.” Markus said.
“What do you mean?” Kizy asked.
“I am not sure whether his injuries are that serious. Usually he tends to his injuries on his own. In fact this is the first time I am watching him getting treated by someone else. But he isn’t that injured, that’s for sure.” Markus replied after thinking some more.
“It must be Nina. She would be feeling terribly guilty and indebted to him for saving her life and getting injured in the process. She would have insisted on treating those. Plus she is a doctor by profession. It would be better for Joel to get his wounds treated properly.” Kizy said, nodding her head.
“Hmmmm.” Markus hummed.
“But there is another problem.” Suddenly Kizy said, her voice sounding dejected.
“What now?” Markus said, high on alert.
“I will have to tell Nina about all this. I have hidden my profession and those 3 years in C city from her. And because of them, she was kidnapped.
Though she is mature enough to not talk about all this since I woke up, I will have to reveal the information someday or other.
But I just don’t know how to do it. I am afraid that she will leave me. And you know, I have very few people in my life, including only one best friend, that is Nina.
If she were to leave me because of my secrets, what would I do? I don’t want her to-” Kizy was still speaking when Marlus cut her off.
“Calm down little lamb. Take a deep breath first!” Markus said, knowing that Kizy was not supposed to get hyper excited or worked up over anything in this period.
And somehow Kizy obliged, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath.
“Now listen. She is your best friend. She would definitely know that you never betray people. Whatever you did, whether it was keeping her in the dark, or hiding your past, it was for your friend’s safety.
And you say that she is mature by nature. So I believe that she will definitely understand you and your circumstances.” Markus said, trying to calm her down.
“I hope this will happen.” Kizy said, wishing Marlus’s words would come true.
“Okay enough of worrying. Time to sleep now.” Markus said, setting the bed angle for Kizy to sleep comfortably.
“I can do that. You don’t have to babysit me.” Kizy said, feeling guilty for making Markus do everything for her.
Nicole had told her about how Marlus had never left her side since the day she was brought to this hospital.
He in fact did all her stuff, which included simply sitting by her side to clean her body and taking care of her in every possible way.
He would only let the female caretakers dress her and clean her properly while he would wait for them in the adjacent room of the ward.
Even when Kizy had woken up, he looked no less than a broken husband who was waiting for his wife to get healthy again.
In fact Kizy had to scold Markus to go and shave, clean himself properly and take a few naps before his appearance was back to normal again.
Though Nicole had an ulterior motive behind this. She had told all this to show Kizy about how much Markus loved her, but this actually worked.
“This isn’t babysitting Little lamb. That’s called taking care of your loved ones.” Markus said while rubbing her head affectionately.
And suddenly Kizy was beet red again, as she had been for the past few days.
Markus would suddenly come up with some lovey dovey quote, saying a random I love you, while doing unnecessary daily chores for her.
She quickly slid on the bed, covering herself with the blanket, hoping that Markus won’t see her flushed face once again.
But Markus had some other plans. He removed the part of the blanket covering her face.
“Good night, wifey.” He said before gently kissing her forehead.
Kizy simply closed her eyes, trying to calm her racing heart.
But the next moment, Markus climbed on the bed, scooping Kizy in a hug while comfortably placing his head between the crook of her neck, finally breathing in her soothing scent.
He would always feel calm while holding her in his arms.
“What are you doing?” Kizy asked, sharing the same bed with Markus after weeks.
“Sleeping with you.” Markus said, his magnetic voice doing magical things to Kizy.
“What!!?” Kizy exclaimed.
“Exactly what I said. Simply sleeping. Don’t overthink.” Markus said with a chuckle.
Kizy just kept looking at his face, not knowing what to do.
“Or do you want something else?” Markus said, leaning closer to her face.
“Good night!” Kizy said quickly while turning her face to the opposite side, her back facing Markus.
She could feel Markus’s chest moving while he chuckled once again, but a part of her liked this, this feeling of being embraced in his warm hug once again, his huge arms, his warmth making her lower her guard and feel protected and cherished.
And the couple slept peacefully, especially Markus, who was getting his much needed rest for the first time in weeks.
*ANOTHER WARD IN UNITY HOSPITAL*
Nina finished dressing Joel’s wound, handing him some ointments for quick healing of wounds.
“Your wound is almost healed. You don’t have to visit again for this wound.” Nina said, ready to leave the room.
“But what if the wound gets infected? Or what if it does not heal properly?” Joel asked, trying to stop her from leaving.
“It will heal.” Nina said before quickly leaving the room, not wanting to be stopped again.
