The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 317

For some reason, Vega’s chest was pounding when she heard what Mischa said earlier. She remembered that she had a crush on him and did all kinds of desperate things to get his attention when she was 16.

But at that time, their ages were far apart, and Vega was just a teenage girl. So, of course, Mischa didn’t take her seriously. He only treated Vega like a little girl, the daughter of his foster father whom he had to protect.

But now, somehow, Mischa’s attitude towards Vega had changed. It was not like it before. Vega wondered what the reason for this change was…

Did Mischa now see her as a woman and not a little girl anymore?

Or was this just Vega’s imagination? The girl didn’t know.

Ahhh … how confusing.

“Thank you ..” Finally, that was all Vega could say, turning her head away to hide her flushed face.

Her actions could not escape Mischa’s observation since the man always paid attention to Vega’s movements and whatever words came out of the girl’s lips. He was wondering what Vega was thinking about.

He remembered that seven years ago, Vega, who was still a teenager, was so aggressive and open about her feelings for him. Was Vega’s love for him still there now? He could only ask himself.

“Okay, then, I can drive and accompany you tomorrow to the event,” said Mischa. He pressed the elevator button and waited until Vega, Altaïr, and JM got inside before he entered. Vega’s friends entered the other elevator that was going down, while they took the elevator going up.

DING

“See you tomorrow,” said Mischa after the elevator stopped on the 44th floor, where his suite was. He waved to the three and walked with his hands in his pockets.

“I’ll send you the details of the event tomorrow,” Altaïr said before the man disappeared from sight. Mischa only raised a hand, signaling that he understood.

After the elevator doors closed again, they continued on to the 45th floor, where the penthouse was located.

“Ahh .. thank you, Altair, for preparing the surprise,” said Vega while hugging her brother with teary eyes. “I’m so happy to see them again.”

“Ahh .. thank goodness. I knew you would like it,” said Altair with a laugh. “By the way, that was a nice coincidence. Mischa came to Paris one day early so we could bump into each other.”

Vega nodded. “I am so happy because he is very kind, willing to accompany us tomorrow, so we don’t have to bring bodyguards. I don’t feel like going out if I have to be guarded so tightly.”

Altair smiled when he remembered that Mischa was the one who offered to protect them.

Ahh .. that’s the best, he thought. Mischa was the only person their father, Alaric Rhionen or Elios Linden, trusted over 20 bodyguards.

In terms of martial arts skills and capabilities, Mischa was equal to Elios himself. They were both at Dragon level when they were still assassins in Rhionen Assassins.

That’s why, if Mischa was around, Elios wouldn’t feel the need to deploy 20 bodyguards just to protect Vega.

Inwardly, Altaïr really hoped that his sister would fall in love and marry Mischa.

Not only did he know Mischa would treat his sister well, but Vega would also be very much protected, and she could have an easier life without strict security.

She wouldn’t need dozens of bodyguards to protect her if she had Mischa Rhionen as her husband.

This makes Altaïr wonder, how did Vega feel about Mischa now.

He remembered that Vega liked Mischa very much when she was younger. However, now quite a long time had passed, and Vega’s feelings may change. Moreover, she was once married and fell deeply in love with another man.

After they entered the penthouse, Altaïr decided to make tea for the three of them and chat for a while before sleeping. He wanted to find out how Vega felt about Mischa now.

“What do you think about Mischa?” the man asked as he sat on the sofa pouring tea into their respective cups. He then handed one cup to his sister.

Vega, who received the cup from Altaïr’s hand, rounded her eyes in astonishment. “Why did you suddenly ask that?”

“Ahh .. I am curious. You used to like him very much. I remember you were very aggressive about getting his attention .. hahahaha. You had not seen each other for a long time and finally met again tonight. Do you still like him?” asked Altair, straight to the point.

Vega sipped her tea while closing her eyes. Her mind went drifted to the handsome man with golden wavy hair who sat opposite her during dinner.

Ahh .. she did use to really like Mischa.

So, how did she feel now?

Finally, the girl opened her eyes and turned towards Altaïr. Her voice sounded timid as she answered her brother’s question.

“The truth is, I do not know.” Vega smiled and shook her head slowly. “I think then and now are different times. I am no longer that aggressive shameless girl. I am too old for schemes and tricks.. hahaha.. I do, however, think he is a really nice man.”

“Ahh … I think he’s attracted to you,” replied Altair. “Don’t you feel it from the way he talked to you and his great attention toward you? If he really liked you and wanted to ask you out .. would you accept him?”

Vega chuckled at Altaïr’s words. “You must not be serious…”

“I’m serious. Didn’t you guys have a dinner appointment that failed? What is he asked you to have dinner with him to make it up?” asked Altair again.

Vega just shrugged. “I guess I will say yes. You know I like eating .. hahahaha …”

“Ah .. that’s great. I hope Mischa will really ask you out. If he did, I will support your relationship,” said Altair with a laugh. He then pulled JM’s body into his lap. “Look at us! It’s so nice to have a girlfriend.”

JM pinched Altair’s arm and scolded him. “Hush .. don’t force Vega. Let her enjoy doing things according to her wishes.”

“Fine…” Finally, Altair gave in. “I won’t force, but I still want to see her marry Mischa.”

“Uff… you!”

The three young people chatted lightly while finishing their tea. Even though it was only 10 pm, JM had to rest to look fresh and charming for her show the next day.

That’s why the three of them immediately went to their bedrooms and slept.
