Chapter 94 - 94. Instant Regret

n

n

nAaron, who was planting at a distance, immediately left his sap and came behind Kizy.

n

"What happened?

" He asked in a genuinely worried voice.

nKizy looked awkwardly at him, as if contemplating whether she should speak or not.

n

"What?

" Aaron asked again, this time his voice sounding more grave.

n

"It's nothing.

" Kizy said in an abnormal voice.

n

"What is it babygirl?

" Aaron asked in a gentle voice, hoping Kizy would tell him what happened.

nKizy remained motionless for about ten minutes before showing her ring finger of right hand, which was bleeding a little.

n

"How did this happen?

" Aaron asked, sighing a little, knowing she was fine.

nKizy pointed towards the sap she was planting, which turned out to be a rose sap, and apparently it was it's thorn which had pricked her right ring finger.

nAaron quickly went and came back with a water bottle. He cleaned Kizy's finger before sucking it, to stop the bleeding.

nAnd that was when Kizy understood what 'instant regret' meant because of her useless act. She just wanted to make people think how caring Aaron was while at the same time show Aaron how much she needed or was dependent on him.

nBut this overly cheesy act made her cringe.

n

"Let me plant this rose. And you stay with me. Don't hurt yourself again.

" Aaron said, holding Kizy's hand protectively.

nPeople watching the couple live or via recordings felt like single dogs, being fed with their PDA.

nAnd after this the couple planted every sapling together. Aaron would occasionally tuck her hair strands behind her ears, and Kizy would blush every time he did it.

nAfter three hours of planting, all the people clapped for the couple before leaving the place, singing high praises.

nKizy and Aaron went to a middle class hotel and ordered for both of them. They sat near a corner, trying to be low profile, even though all the attention was on them.

nAs usual both of them shared a single drink and Aaron fed her in between. He would also place a small amount of food on her plate from time to time.

n

"I will take you to my base tomorrow.

" Aaron said after finishing their meal.

nKizy froze for a minute before smiling at Aaron.

n

"Thank you.

" She said.

n

"Is this how you thank me?

" Aaron asked, sulking.

nKizy just nodded her head, not knowing what Aaron meant.

n

"I want a hug.

" Aaron said.

nKizy was about to roll her eyes, but controlled herself at the last moment.

n

"We are in public.

" She said while acting shy.

n

"But I want the hug right now.

" Aaron said, almost pouting.

nKizy looked to her left and right, wishing nobody was paying attention to them. But unfortunately they were the only ones stealing the entire limelight.

n

"Everyone is watching us.

" Kizy said, though frustrated inside, but trying to look flustered in reality.

nAaron cleared his throat a little before announcing in a loud voice.

n

"Everyone!! I asked my girlfriend to hug me, but she is feeling shy. Will you please close your eyes or look anywhere else?

" Aaron asked politely.

nThe crowd immediately went wild, howling and hooting, cheering 'hug him

/ kiss him'. After a minute, all of them turned their heads elsewhere, giving them privacy.

n

"Is this ok baby girl?

" Aaron asked, closing the distance between two.

nKizy didn't react and simply stepped ahead, lightly hugging Aaron before stepping back. She just wanted to end this stupid drama soon.

nBut Aaron suddenly pulled her back, hugging her tightly and the audience went for another round of cheering.

nSomeone instantly uploaded this to social media, earning support from the entire C city, who now knew that Aaron was the best man Kizy could find after leaving Markus.

n*MARKUS's OFFICE, A CITY*

n

"THUD!!

"

n

"I want this report with necessary changes by evening, or else none of you will be going back home.

" Markus shouted after throwing the document and left angrily from the meeting.

nAll the directors and employees including their Vice CEO were covered in cold sweats due to Markus's terrifying aura.

nNot just them, but even Joel was always on his tiptoes, trying his best to finish off everything by himself without involving Markus to save people.

nMarkus was becoming way more terrifying for the past weeks. He would shout and scold employees unnecessarily. Would make them work overtime. Or would simply scare them away with his single glance.

nSome females had already cried without even getting scolded because of his dangerous aura.

n

"Mr. Joel, what should we do now? We had already presented this document three weeks ago. But Boss had accepted it, even praised us a little. But now he says it has got lots of mistakes. Plus he didn't mention what the mistakes were. What should we change in it?

" The finance director asked while wiping his sweat.

n

"Change the investing amount from 3 million to 2.8 million. Also on the second last page, there was a spelling mistake in the third paragraph. Correct that and bring that file to me before presenting it again in front of Boss.

" Joel replied hurriedly before running behind Markus.

n'Boss, why are you doing this? The employees have been scared as hell for the past few days. If this keeps going, I am afraid that they will resign. But with that cold face of yours, they can not even dare to bring the resignation letter by themselves.

nAahhhhh!! This is frustrating. Me and the employees were so relaxed when young Miss was working. Boss's temper had improved when she would be around.

nBut from the day that stupid man started going out with Young Miss, Boss's mood had been worsening everyday.

nGod, you don't even need to pay me for this month. Maybe include the next month without pay as well. In return, just send Young Miss back to Boss as soon as you can. I usually do not pray a lot, but this time I am praying to save thousands of lives.' Joel thought before knocking the door.

n

"Do not enter without my coffee!!

" Markus shouted from outside.

n

"Yes boss.

" Joel said and ran back to the coffee machine.

n'God please send the young miss back.' Joel prayed while crying internally.

nInside the office room, Matkus unlocked his phone, scrolling news.

nAnd suddenly the video where Aaron hugged Kizy tightlý after their meal popped up.

n

"Couple of the century!! Can't wait to see more of their lovey dovey moments.

" Markus read the caption out loud.

n

"Couple of the century???!! That shameless man is hugging my wife and you call it 'couple of the century'? Just open your eyes wider, you blind reporters. That's called being a third wheel.

" Markus shouted.

n

"And what the heck is 'Perfect couple'? And what's with 'Kizy looks so stunning nowadays'? Man that's called exposing and I am damn sure that that **ty person is making her wear it. Don't lower your standards people!! She looked way more elegant in the clothes I bought for her.

nPlus can't you see that he forcefully hugged her? How can you cheer someone over this instead of slapping him?

" Markus said frustratedly.

nJoel, who was getting immune to his boss ranting about how Aaron is the bad guy, and he is the only perfect person existing for young Miss, took a deep breath before knocking on the office door.

n

"Come inside quickly.

" Markus shouted.

n

"Boss your coffee.

" Joel said before passing the coffee mug, something he was doing for years now.

nMarkus took a sip before yelling.

n

"Is this how coffee is made? Why is it so hot? Do you want me to burn my mouth?

" Markus shouted.

n'Boss, weren't you the one who scolded me yesterday for bringing coffee which was slightly colder than this? You said how is someone supposed to drink coffee which has cooled down!!' Joel thought, not knowing whether he should laugh or cry.

n

"Sorry boss. I will immediately cool it down for you.

" Joel said before extending his hand to pick the coffee mug.

n

"Leave it for now. Don't repeat the same mistake again.

" Markus said and Joel was literally about to cry from his statements.

n

"Yes boss.

" He said, trying to hold back his internal tears.

n

"Any news from Kizy?

" Markus asked.

n

"Yes boss. She texted Jack -

"Base

". He received her message just moments ago. Maybe the young miss sent it hurriedly.

" Joel said.

n

"That piece of ** never allows her to leave his side. Anyways I think she means that Aaron would be taking her to his base soon. Ask our men to keep a tight watch over him. If we are careful, we might even find his base without alerting him.

" Markus said.

n

"Yes boss.

" Joel said before turning to leave the office.

n

"Wait.

" Markus said.

n

"Boss.

" Joel said and turned back.

n

"Do women really love being gifted expensive clothes and jewellery?

" Markus asked a little doubtfully.

n

"Usually Yes. They do love such things. But for young Miss, it's a big No. Young Miss was happy just by having you and your family together with her. She isn't a materialistic woman and sorry to say this, but you already know this boss.

" Joel said, trying to gather his courage.

nAfter all, young Miss was his only support. If his boss was to think about her negatively, then his coming days would be even more troublesome. Plus what he said was the truth. Young miss cherished people and feelings more than money.

n

"Hmmm... I have another task for you.

" Markus said, with a weird smile.
