Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

But Kizy immediately pinched Markus's thigh below the table, signalling him to cool down.

"You can already see the place where 'Stardust' stands today. All of this was because of his past three years of hardships by him. If he truly needed any support, he would have taken help when the company's condition was at rock bottom. If he can make a sinking ship sail, why would he need someone else's help?" Grandpa replied even before Markus could say anything, his tone arrogant.

"But why the sudden decision of partnering?" The reporter asked again.

"Because now my company has stabilised. I had wanted to begin such a partnership project long ago, but my company was unstable, where I didn't want others to suffer any losses from me. But now 'Stardust' is strong enough to not only support itself but any other company who would work with it, even if the result were losses." Markus said, his tone calm, as if he wasn't offended by the question.

But if not for his tight fist below the table, even Kizy would have believed in his calmness.

"Miss Mary, is the suit worn by Markus designed by 'Purple'?" Another reporter asked.

"Yes. With our partnership with 'Stardust', we will be entering the world of men's fashion and try to create something new. The suit he is wearing will be available in market next month, along with a brand new collection that 'Purple' will be releasing for men." Mary answered professionally.

"What about Miss Kizy's dress? Is it related to Mr. Markus's suit?" Another female asked curiously.

"Yes. Actually this would be a couple outfit. The masterpiece for the collection we are releasing next month. In fact we will be releasing two collections - one male and another female, while these two would be the masterpiece for them." Mary answered.

"Elder madam, could you please reveal how old the Elder master is today?" A reporter asked playfully.

"Of course. He is very old now. He is seven years older than me. And it was my sixtieth birthday this year. So you people can calculate the rest on your own." Grandma said while giggling and the rest of reporters laughed with her, knowing how playful this old couple was.

"Miss Kizy, we have heard that you were the one who had originally suggested this celebration and the gifts that were distributed. Is that true?" Another reporter asked.

"No. Me and Markus were discussing when we came up with this idea. Both of us had many suggestions for the same. And you can see the results." Kizy said with a polite smile.

"Mr. Markus, any news about when you two will be tied by the marital knot?" A female reporter asked.

"I won't comment on this. But two months from now, I'll be releasing breaking news. Be sure to attend it then." Markus said with a smirk.

"Is it related to your marriage?" The reporter continued.

Markus paused for a minute, looking at Kizy, who was already a little shocked, as she knew that two months from now will be their first marriage anniversary.

"Yes." He answered with a devilishly handsome smile.

"Elder Master, what gifts did you receive from your family members today? Will you mind revealing that?" Another reporter asked with a smile.

"Yes, why not. My wife made special breakfast and lunch for me. While Mary gave me a warm shawl for the coming winters. Markus and Kizy both combined gifted me a longevity pendant along with a golden buddha." Grandpa replied proudly.

"Mr Markus, people already received perfumes as a return gift from your partner 'The Eternity'. What about 'Aurum' then?" Another person asked.

"The brooch I am wearing, along with Kizy's earring are a custom made couple jewellery. Grandma, grandpa and mom also received gold gifts from them, including our golden buddha. And we are about to launch a couple themed jewellery collection from the coming month, the designs are already in progress." Markus answered.

The reporters asked a few more questions and rushed back to studios to write about all the excessive content that this year end banquet and Evans family had given, including the lovey dovey moments between Kizy and Markus.

Once done, the family of five rushed back to the Evans mansion, where they were supposed to have another celebration which was unknown to the rest of the world.

Only special elites from the underworld along with the rest of Evans family members were invited.

The Evans mansion was brightly shining, under top notch security for protection of all eminent personalities and the Evans family.

Unlike the games and events at the evening banquet, this one was filled with an orchestra, while people were seen in groups, talking amongst themselves.

"Hello everyone. I welcome you all to grandpa's birthday banquet." Markus said which was followed by a round of applause.

"But there was one more thing that I wanted to discuss with you all, and that is why we have organised this banquet separately from the one which was held in the evening." Markus paused.

The people were now all years, curious to know what the top and youngest leader of country B's mafia wanted to convey.

"I want all of us to unite." Markus said a single statement which was enough to make the people shocked. 

All the guests attending this late night banquet were the ones who had friendly relations with the Evans family and supported each other in dire situations. 

But they had always been individual identities, fighting and controlling their particular areas.

Take the Evans family for example. Even though Evans had men all over country B, their main area of control or more like main base was A city. 

Thus nobody interfered in their area while Evans didn't interfere with other groups in other areas under their control.

They will come together while going against some common enemy or common problem.

"What do you mean by unite?" A man asked from the public, not being able to understand what exactly Markus wanted.
