Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

Chapter 24 - 24. Alcohol

Driver dropped Markus and Kizy for there business meet outside an expensive restaurant. But Joel was nowhere seen, as Markus had ordered him to.

For the entire ride, Markus was looking menacingly at Kizy, who was busy taking down notes and reading documents, completely ignorant to this.

"Remember not to misbehave dear Kizy" He whispered while entering the private room.

Being the wealthiest and most successful businessmen, Markus was the last to arrive. And no one minded this in the least.

An elderly man at around sixty years of age was talking to another middle aged man with a round belly inside the private room. A young man, somewhat near Markus's age was sitting alone, reading something on phone. While all three of there secretaries were standing behind them.

As soon as Markus and Kizy entered the room, the six members stood up straight before greeting them.. After Markus signalled, the three men went back to there seats while the three secretaries kept standing.

"Good evening Mr. Markus. And this lady is?" the youngest immediately started stalking Kizy, observing every single detail from her head to toe.

"This is my personal assistant Miss Kizy" Markus introduced before introducing the three men to Kizy.

The old man was CEO of a business company that had finished many projects with Markus. He was Mr. Song.

The person with round belly, Mr. William was head of Gazebo restaurant, with its branches open in all major cities.

Lastly the young man, who was entranced by Kizy's beauty was Mr. Song's only son, Kevin.

"Hello Mr. Song, Mr. William and Master Kevin" Kizy bowed before standing behind Markus.

"Miss Kizy please have a seat." Kevin spoke.

Markus gave a cold stare to Kevin before saying

"All of you can have a seat." pointing towards the rest of secretaries.

Kizy took a seat beside Markus with a polite smile pasted on her face. Someone signalled the waiter who instantly placed the menu before all four men.

Markus looked at Kizy before ordering dishes for both of them. Coincidentally all those dishes turned out be the ones that Kizy disliked the most.

But Kizy had no say in those right now. She knew that Markus was doing this on purpose and she didn't wanted to lose against him. Thus she kept up with her non-chalant attitude, which was successfully driving Markus insane.

The waiter recieved orders from all three men and retreated back. Someone started with some business topic and soon all of them were busy with the talk.

However there was one exception, and that was Kevin, who was busy staring at Kizy, as if moving his gaze away for even a moment would make him miss out on some important scene.

All the members were aware of the gaze that Kevin was throwing at Kizy, with Kizy included who tried avoiding his gaze by staring down at her feet.

Afterall none of these men were something that she could afford to offend, hence she tried her best to minimize her presence by shrinking herself and looking down.

But Markus completely misunderstood her. He took it as a way Kizy was trying to pretend being shy. He was so angry but helpless at the same time as they were in public.

Soon the food arrived along with two bottles of alcohol at the table.

"Apologies but our head chef was not able to recieve our esteemed guests. Hence he had sent our best beverage as a form of apology. Hope you will enjoy this." with that the waiter bowed and left the room after serving food to all the members.

All the members were about to start eating when Mr. Willian poured drinks for four and stood up. "Today i will toast Mr Song and Mr Markus for our successful project which gained us all the profit." he said while raising his glass.

Mr. Song followed suit before shaking his head.

"William, we all know about your fondness for alcohols. You don't have to mask it behind a toast." Mr. Song laughed heartily before raising his glass.

Finally Markus spoke up.

"Aplogies to everyone, but i was recently diagnosed with Gastritis. Plus Miss Kizy has strictly warned me to avoid drinking. If you don't mind, can Mizz Kizy toast you all on my behalf?" he said in a polite tone.

Beside him Kizy was so angry that she wanted to punch him in the face. Markus very well knew that she had low alcohol tolerance. Even a single glass would enough to make her drunk. Not to mention she would have to toast all three of them, which meant three glasses!

"No problem at all. Then we will have to trouble Miss Kizy a little. Here's a toast from me." Kevin who had been silent till now suddenly spoke and gulped down his entire glass.

Kizy was crying silent tears in her heart. Markus was deadset on making her drink and she had no other way out.

"Toast to Master Kevin." Kizy said a little unnaturally before slowly finishing her glass.

Following that, both Mr. William and Mr. Song toasted Kizy. And by the time she was done, her cheeks were flushed, making her look even more attractive.

"This one i would like to personally toast Miss Kizy. Afterall it is her first time attending out meeting." Kevin spoke up before gulping down another glass.

Kizy didn't spoke a word before filling her glass and instantly pouring it down her throat. Markus saw that Kizy was behaving a little unusual and tried speaking something to her when she suddenly pushed him away and stood up.

"Yo old geezer, pour a drink for this lady" Kizy said in a loud but sluggish tone.

The entire table froze on her single statement as the 'old geezer' Kizy addressed was none other than Mr. Song.

Markus immediately tried to force her down to sit when she once again successfully pushed him away.

"I think Miss Kizy is a little drunk now. We better finish up quickly." Mr. William tried to mediate the situation. But...

"Fatso, who do you think you are to stop this lady from drinking. Today this lady will drink to my hearts content." Kizy once again spoke, but this time none of the people inside room had the courage to even breath loudly.

"And you little punk. Weren't you toasting this beauty till now. Don't tell this lady that you are drunk already? Such a sissy!" Kizy said before gulping down another glass and slamming it on table.

Markus immediately stood up from the table.

"Excuse us. I didn't knew about her low tolerance. Please forgive my negligibility and wrap this up. We will leave now." and without waiting for the reply, he lifted the struggling Kizy princess style and left the room.
