221 221. So this is my sister in law
‘This seems a bit suspicious. Andrew was found in our area, that too in a near death situation. If his enemies wanted, they could have directly killed him. Plus why did they leave him in our area? Do they already know our relationship? But my friendship with Andrew is only known to my men, grandpa and now Kizy.
And Andrew has no one. So I am sure that he won’t tell anyone about it. But who made him like this!’ Markus was still thinking deeply about the entire situation, his aura cold and murderous, making Joel and others go silent completely.
Meanwhile Kizy tossed and turned quite a few times in the bed before peacefully drifting off to sleep.
Markus kept checking on Kizy throughout the night, afraid of losing her one more time, and going through all those dark times once again.
He couldn’t get any sleep at night because of worrying about Andrew and Kizy.
Next morning Kizy woke up early. She freshened up before going to Andrew’s room, checking up on him.
But even before she could open the door, she could already hear the loud laughter of the two men.
This made her nervous heart settle, knowing that Markus was no more worried about Andrew’s condition.
With that she opened the door with a sigh, only to see her husband sitting on the bedside, trying hard to stop his laughter while Nadrew, who was sitting on the bed, was in no better situation.
“You shouldn’t be making him laugh so hard. He received stitches yesterday.” Kizy said in a worried tone, dumbfounded by how the men were laughing.
“You.. you can’t blame me wifey. He was the one who cracked the joke. I am not to be blamed.” Markus said, finally his laughter stopped while he raised both his hands in self defence.
“So this is my sister in law. Nice to meet you.” Andrew said, stopping along with Markus before greeting Kizy with a smile.
“How are you doing?” Kizy asked, hoping Andrew was not gravely injured.
“I am doing well. Nothing serious.” Andrew replied with a smile.
Nobody knew how Andrew did this, but he always had a calm, comforting and soothing smile, something completely opposite to Markus, who stood with a cold expression making all the people fear him.
This trait would mostly make people lower their guards, and trust in Andrew, even when there was no hope left. This along with his immature face and expressions helped him gain a lot of benefits, especially in this life risking field.
“Oh I forgot to ask you.” Suddenly Markus said in between.
“What is it?” Andrew asked.
“Kizy said that she feels that your face is quite familiar to her. Have you ever met or seen her before this?” Markus said, remembering Kizy’s doubt from last night.
Andrew turned to look at Kizy who now stood there with a serious expression.
He carefully looked at her face before shaking his head.
“No. I am sure that I have never seen her. I can not be mistaken about this.” Andrew said confidently, while looking at Kizy.
“Have you ever been to Z city?” Andrew asked, wanting to confirm something one last time.
“No. Never.” Kizy said.
“Then were you there in A city two years ago?” Andrew asked again.
“No I wasn’t.” Kizy said, remembering how she was forced to work hard and survive this tough world all by herself along with her mom.
“Then there is no way that we have met. I have spent all my childhood in Z city whereas I came to A city three years ago. I never met anyone for the first year there. After that I worked my way up, and thankfully managed to grab Markus for the deal. We worked together and improved ourselves before going our own way. So there is no chance that we would have met each other.” Andrew explained.
“Maybe I remembered it wrongly.” Kizy said, thinking that it must be her mistake in confusing Andrew with someone else.
“No problem, sister in law. By the way I am still angry at Markus for not inviting me to the wedding.” Andrew said.
“First ask him if we ever had a wedding.” Kizy said in a sarcastic tone, remembering how Markus had forced her into this marriage.
“Hehe wifey, no need to get angry. We still have time to plan a grand wedding for us.” Marlus said, clearing his throat.
“Don’t tell me that you are simply married by law!” Andrew said, trying to make it even worse for Markus.
“Andrew… wifey, just tell me the type of wedding you want. I will execute the wedding accordingly.” Markus said, trying to finish off the wedding conversation.
“Sister in law, I was feeling a little hungry. Can you cook something for me?” Andrew asked, becoming Markus’s saviour at the last moment.
“Yes. I think since you have not recovered completely, I will cook some healthy and light breakfast for us.” Kizy said.
“Ok wifey.” Markus said while showing a thumbs up.
“Not cooking anything for you.” Kizy said before going to the kitchen, leaving a sulking Markus behind.
“Why did you have to bring the wedding in between?” Markus asked Andrew through gritted teeth.
“How would I know that you never had a wedding and simply married her?” Andrew shrugged while speaking.
“I will have to do something for this stupid woman now.” Markus said, knowing how hard it was to please his wife.
“You really love her right?” Andrew said, smiling a little.
“Yeah. A lot.” Markus said with a smile.
“I can see that.” Andrew said, happy to know that his always cold natured friend had found himself a perfect partner who bought out Markus’s rare warm side.
“Anyways, you were talking about David.” Markus said, bringing Andrew’s attention back to their main topic.
