Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

Chapter 171 - 171. Gatekeepers

"Dungeon." Kizy answered in one word, stunning Markus a little before asking the driver to start for the given destination.

"Are you sure? You want to visit the dungeon on the very first day of the new year?" Markus asked.

"Yeah of course. Anyways call Joel. Ask him to join us in the dungeon meeting room within half an hour." Kizy said.

Markus called Joel, who as usual picked his call up on the very first ring, even when he was fast asleep, enjoying his rare holidays.

"Hello boss. Good afternoon. Happy new year to you and your family." Joel replied energetically, as if he had been wide awake for long now.

"Hmmm. Meet me in the dungeon meeting room within half an hour." Markus answered and ended the call.

'Did something happen on the very first day of the new year? Who angered the boss to make him personally appear in the dungeon?' Joel thought, immediately going towards the bathroom, knowing he was supposed to be there at the asked venue within exactly half an hour.

"Are you even human?" Kizy asked, frustrated by the way Markus treated his employees.

"What's your problem stupid woman? I have been trying to control my temper since morning. Yet you are only calling me names, criticizing me and shouting at me!!" Markus flared at Kizy.

"Then try to treat others as human Markus! I wanted you to ask Joel to join us for lunch. You made it sound as if he would suffer a death penalty if he isn't seen in meeting room within half an hour." Kizy argued back.

"Weren't you the one who wanted him in the meeting room within the given time?" Markus backfired.

"Yeah but we are gathering to celebrate Marlus! Not some business deal where he has to be on toes all the time. Forget it." Kizy said, taking out her own cell phone.

"Hello Young Miss. Happy New year. Don't worry, I'll be there in ten minutes." Joel replied hurriedly.

"Joel stop wherever you are and take a deep breath." Kizy said politely.

"Huhh?" Joel asked, not knowing what exactly was happening.

"I said take a deep breath." Kizy said.

"Yes young miss." Joel said.

"Happy new year to you too. Now listen. We don't have any urgent work. Just try to reach the dungeon soon. There's no time limit or anything like that. Take your time." Kizy replied.

"But-" Joel was still speaking when Kizy interrupted.

"Don't speed past the limit. Just be there soon." Kizy said and ended the call.

'Is there something wrong with either boss or young miss? Both of them are saying the complete opposites.' Joel thought, but slowed down a little in his actions.

Markus didn't say anything for the rest of the ride while Kizy wanted him to reflect on himself.

Finally they reached the base. But this time Kizy already knew the way. She didn't wait for Markus and walked ahead, leaving an even more frustrated Markus behind.

'Is she hell bent on making me angry today? She could just explain politely. Why make a fuss out of it?' Markus thought, realising his mistake. But he just wanted Kizy to explain it more nicely. He took the sweets and snacks that Kizy had purchased, before following behind her.

"Good afternoon lady boss."

"Happy New Year, lady boss." 

"Welcome lady boss." 

All the men immediately greeted Kizy who politely greeted them back with a smile.

'Look at her being all nice and gentle to others. Shouldn't you treat me even more better than them? Why this partiality?' Markus thought, feeling abandoned.

Kizy politely kept responding to everyone before standing in front of the dungeon, waiting for the men to open the doors.

"Sorry lady boss, we need our boss's permission to open this gate." One of the men tried to gather his courage and spoke as gently and politely as he could.

Kizy turned to look back at Markus, who finally stopped sulking and gave a cocky look.

"Either you ask them to give me equal rights as you have, or I am leaving you forever." Kizy said, her tone showed how pissed she was.

Of course, if it would have been her first time to the base, she would have neglected this.

But they all already knew that she was their ladyboss, yet they were not giving her any rights to the place. How was she supposed to stay quiet?

And the next second….

"Do you wanna die?" Markus asked in a cold voice, scaring the hell out of those gatekeepers.

He was already irritated enough. If Kizy was to leave, then he would have to once again start a search for her, especially when half the team was supposed to have a holiday, which was something that Markus never wanted.

"Ssoo.. sorry boss." They immediately apologised.

"You should apologize to her, not me." Markus said, his tone dropping by another octave, making the temperature drop as well.

"Sorry ladyboss." All the men immediately knelt on the ground with a 'thud', cooling Kizy's anger.

"Just get up and open the gates." Kizy said, not looking at Markus anymore.

"Yes ladyboss." A man said and instantly opened the gate, not daring to tarry even a moment.

Kizy directly walked inside while being greeted by a scream as her welcome.

She directly followed the sound, before coming in front of a prison cell where Ruth was torturing a middle aged man.

"Ruth." Kizy called out with a smile, her anger dissipated completely.

Ruth, who was still acting like a hell queen, turned behind, her expression going from extreme cold to warm smile in seconds.

"Lady boss!!" Ruth exclaimed, ignoring the man behind her.

"Let's leave him for today. Continue torturing him tomorrow." Kizy said, while walking inside.

"Wait ladyboss. I'll come out." Ruth said, almost running out of the cell to stop Kizy from entering the dirty place.

"Happy New Year dear." Kizy said with a genuine smile.

"Happy New year ladyboss!" Ruth greeted energetically, making Kozy remember Joel, who was always this energetic whenever she or Markus called him.

"Ask everyone in the base to come into the meeting room." Kizy paused.

"Except the ones who are gatekeeping for the dungeon." Kizy said.
