”He wants to have a word with Kizy privately.
You will have to wait till then.
Kizy, you go ahead. ” Grandma said.


Kizy simply nodded and went to the study room while Markus felt a mixture of suspicion, frustration and anxiety, though he didn ’t know the reason for this.

*INSIDE THE STUDY, EVANS MANSION*

”Grandpa, how are you? ” Kizy asked as soon as she stepped inside.

Grandpa, who was sitting on his chair, looking at something, immediately lifted his head and smiled at Kizy.

”I am good, good.
Come and sit here. ” Grandpa pointed towards the sofa..

Kizy obeyed and sat where grandpa had asked.

”You knew that our enemy was already targeting you? ” Grandpa asked directly.

”Yes grandpa. ” Kizy answered.

”Then why didn ’t you inform me? ” Grandpa asked.

”Would you have allowed me to visit C City if you knew about that? ” Kizy asked.

”No, of course not. ” Grandpa answered firmly.

”That ’s the reason why I didn ’t disclose this information. ” Kizy spoke.

”But that was too risky.
Why would you risk your own life for that? ” Grandpa continued asking.

”Grandpa, as I said, I already consider all of you as my own.
Thus if anyone out of you is in danger, I would definitely step up and protect them. ” Kizy paused.


”On top of it, they had already included me in the plan, so if not for yesterday, they would have still tried to harm me in some other way.
Isn ’t it better to lure them out first and make them act according to us? Afterall we don ’t know how they would have attacked if we were to stay still. ” Kizy answered.

”You mean you had planned everything from your kidnapping and the events that happened later on? ” Grandpa asked with astonishment.

”Sort of, but I miscalculated, as I didn ’t count their backup in my plans. ” Kizy said with guilt.

”Child you have already achieved a huge feat.
Just that you were injured and all of us were worried for you. ” Grandpa said.

”Don ’t worry about the injury, my body heals real fast. ” Kizy answered with a smile.

”Ok then.
Were the people who saved you the ones who saved Markus? ” Grandpa asked.

”Yes. ” Kizy nodded.

”Then were you able to find some information from our enemy? ” Grandpa asked.

”Grandpa actually that man only said that he wanted Markus to come there alone.
From what I can deduce, he wants to kill him.
I feel that there is some history behind his hatred for Markus though. ” Kizy answered whatever she felt honestly.

”Ok you can go now.
Also, thank those people who saved you this time.
We are indebted to them. ” Grandpa said.

Kizy agreed and left the study room.
Soon Markus entered the study while Kizy chatted with Mary and Grandma for some time, doing some simple chores.

”Wow, you don ’t have anything to throw at me today? ” Markus spoke as soon as he entered.

”I guess you are getting used to it.
So let ’s not do that anymore. ” Grandpa said lightly, but the next moment, a knife was sent flying towards him.

Luckily due to his fast reflexes, Markus dodged and caught the knife perfectly between his fingers.


”Sneak attack! Not bad. ” Markus said while walking towards grandpa.

”I want you to remain highly alert always.
Don ’t let your guards down for even a second. ” Grandpa said and pointed towards the sofa, gesturing him to sit.

”So who is he? ” Markus went straight to the point.

”That ’s a long story. ” Grandpa said slowly, as if remembering something from the past.

”Coincidentally I have a lot of time. ” Markus said.

”Do you remember your father ’s death? ” Grandpa suddenly asked.

”How can I forget? ” Markus said in a low voice.

”Three years ago, after your father died, I found some leads in C City for his case.
But I was attacked once I entered there, the way you and Kizy were.

Thus I investigated all the gangs and organizations working there and found one highly suspicious.

That gang was also involved in attacking me.
So I attacked them, and was able to kill their leader.
But the most intriguing part about that was, the leader ’s son had managed to escape.
I was searching for him for almost a year, yet there was no news.

But now, the same boy has returned.
I think he wants to kill all of us and replace you from your throne to rule the underworld. ” Grandpa said.

”So you mean his father was most probably involved in dad ’s accident? ” Markus asked.

”Yes.
That was the reason I was searching for that driver to confirm it, but unfortunately we are still unable to do anything. ” Grandpa said.

”Since we already know the enemy, we can definitely plan ahead. ” Markus said.


Grandpa simply hummed in response.

”Also you knew about Kizy ’s background. ” Markus said.

”Not exactly. ” Grandpa replied after some thought.

Afterall Markus already knew about her skills, and some sort of power behind her.
So there was no meaning in hiding that anymore from him.

”Was that why you were relaxed even when she went missing after her kidnapping incident? ” Markus asked.

”Yes. ” Grandpa said.

”Since when? ” Markus asked his final question.

”The day you were attacked in C City, it was her men who saved you. ” Grandpa said.

”Why were you hiding it all this time? ” Markus asked frustratedly.

Everyone knew about Kizy and the powers behind her except him.

”She made us promise that we won ’t investigate her background, and keep her powers a secret, only then she would save you.
We wanted you back safe, thus we promised her. ” Grandpa said.

”Great. ” Markus said before leaving the study angrily.

Outside in the hall, Kizy had helped grandma and Mary to serve the dishes.
But suddenly Markus came and lifted Kizy princess style before leaving the hall and Evans Mansion.

”What are you doing? Put me down!! Grandma and mom are watching. ” Kizy kept shouting at him, but Markus simply wanted to drag her out of this place.


Since Kizy was injured, he didn ’t want to hurt her twice.
Thus he had quickly lifted her up and left the mansion.

He entered the back passenger seat with Kizy in his arms and placed her on his lap after he settled down.

”Markus, stop.
What are- ” And suddenly his lips slammed on hers, cutting her off.

Markus pressed a button and suddenly there was a partition between the driver seat and back seats.

Markus kissed Kizy hungrily, as if trying to pour out all the emotions he felt, though even he didn ’t understand what he was feeling at the moment.

Kizy felt completely overwhelmed by this out of the blue kiss.
One moment she was speaking and another moment she was being kissed hard and rough.

Her brain had suddenly stopped working, making her unable to comprehend anything, even making her forget to breathe.

Markus felt that Kizy wasn ’t breathing, and would definitely choke and pass out any moment, thus he unwillingly broke the kiss before looking her in the eye.

”Why? ” He asked.
