The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 329

Ren cleared his throat. “My name is not Renald Hanenberg, but Renald Friedrich Neumann.”

“Oh …” Vega and Tatiana gasped in unison.

They just remembered, last year, Renald Hanenberg said at his press conference that he didn’t want to be called Renald Hanenberg anymore because he wanted to use his father’s last name, Professor Friedrich Neumann.

However, not long after the press conference, he got into a cruise accident and was hospitalized for months. Once he was out of the hospital, the man locked himself up at home for a long time.

Many people had forgotten his request and to this day still referred to him as Renald Hanenberg.

Apparently, now Ren had resolved to only use his new name and remove the Hanenberg family name from his identity.

This could be seen clearly from his expression, which turned sour when Vega called him Renald Hanenberg.

“I’m sorry, Professor Neumann. I was wrong,” said Vega with an apologetic smile. “I know how important a name is for a person. I won’t do it again.”

“Thank you.”

Only then did Renald Neumann smile and invite the two girls to sit down. He handed a tablet from the table to Vega and told her to choose a drink.

“Please order the tea you like,” he said. “This lounge has many unique varieties of tea.”

“Thank you, Professor,” said Vega, smiling. She took the tablet and began researching the menu.

She finally saw Ren smiling today, and it made her mood brighten up. Earlier throughout the event in the SpaceLab hall, that man did not smile at all.

Vega hoped this was a sign that Tatiana’s interview would be as successful as her interview with Mischa. Apparently, Tatiana was thinking the same. Her face immediately lit up, and her tense body began to relax again.

“Forgive me for not updating myself regarding your name, Professor Neumann. The problem is, in various media, people still call you by your old name,” said Tatiana apologetically.

“It’s okay. However, from now on, please write my name correctly,” said Professor Renald Neumann firmly. His smile had disappeared from his face. “My assistant said you are very famous and people read your articles. That’s why I’m willing to talk to you to set this straight.”

“Oh, is that so?” Tatiana seemed delighted that Ren acknowledged her reputation. “I’m glad Professor is willing to talk to me. Oh, by the way.. this is my friend Vega. She happened to be in Paris this week. So, I asked her to come along. It’s okay, right? I already asked for permission to bring her from your secretary at SpaceLab.”

Ren nodded. “It is okay.”

He looked at Vega attentively. He still remembered seeing this girl in the SpaceLab hall this morning when he spoke. He couldn’t possibly forget this girl. He had never seen such a beautiful woman. And besides …

He swallowed hard.

This girl’s face looked very much like his late wife’s face.

He didn’t remember the woman at all, because he lost all his memory from the day he was born until the accident.

However, he had pictures of them together, and his assistant and servants all told him how much he loved his wife and how great the woman was.

He wished he would remember her and knew why they could fall in love and got married.

The man lowered his tablet and pointed to the menu tablet that Vega was holding. “Have you ordered the tea you want?”

“Oh.. not yet.” Vega shook her head. “Any recommendations? I’ve never been to a tea lounge before.”

“Can I?” Ren took the tablet from Vega’s hand and examined the menu. He then offered to order tea for all of them. “Would you like me to order for you?”

Vega and Tatiana nodded in unison.

“Thank you,” said Vega, smiling broadly.

“Okay.” Ren pressed something on the tablet, then put it back on the table. “Our tea will be here soon.”

“Ahh .. this place is so comfortable,” said Tatiana as she took out the camera from her bag. “By the way, can I record our conversation?”

Ren shook his head. “No. Sorry. Did my secretary not explain it to you? We will just have an informal conversation. You can ask me various questions, but I don’t want anything being recorded.”

Tatiana nodded in agreement. This was not unusual. Many famous people wanted to talk to her but off the record. One day, maybe they wanted to refute some facts that they had revealed to Tatiana. If there was a recording involved, they would not be able to recant what they already said to her.

Therefore, of course, Tatiana did not insist on recording their interview session. After all, she already felt lucky that Ren was even willing to meet her specifically and chat in this informal setting.

“Of course, Professor Neumann,” said Tatiana, smiling sweetly. She took out her notebook and began flipping through the pages. “Ahh … I collected tons of questions from my followers about the people I’m going to interview and filter out the most popular and meaningful questions.”

“Hmm ..” Ren crossed his arms and looked at Tatiana attentively.

Being stared at like that by a handsome and genius man like Ren made Tatiana blush. Suddenly she felt too shy to ask anything. She pulled Vega’s hand and handed her notebook to the girl.

“My friend Vega will ask some of those questions on behalf of my followers,” said Tatiana hastily. “I … I will write down the answers since we have no recordings.”

Vega widened her eyes when she heard Tatiana’s words. Her friend just dumped the responsibility of interviewing Ren to her.

Hey … this is not what we agreed on; that was the expression in Vega’s gaze towards her irresponsible friend. But Tatiana pretended not to see it and had already pulled out another notebook and pen, ready to write.

“Uff…” Vega massaged her forehead and shook her head. She was not ready to become an interviewer all of a sudden.

However, it would be embarrassing to make a fuss in front of Renald Neumann if she denied Tatiana’s words about it. So, finally, Vega took the notebook half-heartedly and flipped the pages open.

“Is there a problem?” Ren asked, this time looking at Vega. The girl hurriedly shook her head.

“Ah … no, there is no problem. I’m going to read some of the questions that Tatiana Petrova’s followers are burning to know the answers to,” Vega said after clearing her throat. “You can choose whether you want to answer each question or not. Don’t feel pressured.”

Don’t feel pressured.

Suddenly Ren laughed at Vega’s words.

“You’re funny,” he said. The man stared at Vega with an amused look. His cold and unapproachable figure had now turned into a normal, friendly man. Tatiana held her breath and stared at Ren and Vega alternately.

Ahh … she made the right decision by bringing Vega here with her. The girl was capable of melting even the coldest icebergs, she thought.

Vega’s warm and bubbly personality, coupled with her alluring beauty, meant that no man would be cold to her.

“I’m funny?” Vega frowned. She didn’t understand what he meant. “Why did you say that?”

Ren shook his head. “It’s okay if you don’t understand.”

“Oh…” Vega suspected that Ren laughed at her when she said that the man shouldn’t feel pressured to answer her questions.

Of course, Ren found it funny. No one could make him feel pressured, not even the pretty girl in front of him.

Nevertheless, Vega decided to not discuss it. She looked down at the notebook in her hand and read the first question.

“Last year, you held a press conference to announce your decision to step down from your position as the crown prince of Moravia. So many people were shocked at the news and wondered, why? The Moravian royal family has denied your allegation that they mistreated your mother and refused to accept your commoner wife into the royal family.”

Vega lifted her face and looked at Ren attentively. This question was also something she wanted to ask him herself after reading various articles about Ren in Mischa’s car this morning.

Ren looked back at Vega and did not immediately answer. Somehow he couldn’t take his eyes off the girl.

Something about this beautiful girl made him feel attracted, apart from the fact that she looked similar to the woman he married 3 years ago, who was now dead.

“Miss… Vega..?”

Vega just realized that she had not introduced her full name to Ren. For a moment, she hesitated whether she should reveal her identity or not. But, come to think of it, they wouldn’t meet again, unless Vega would take part in her family business at RMI.

Since RMI was one of the SpaceLab investors, it was very likely that they would meet later if she took over RMI along with her brother.

However, Vega had thought about this for a long time and she felt sure that she did not want to get involved in the business.

She just wanted to live in peace, see the world, and leave the family business to Altair and their two younger siblings. Therefore, Vega decided not to give her real name to Ren.

“My name is Vega Medici,” she said with a smile.

“Ah …” Ren nodded back.. He looked at the girl with curious eyes. “Miss Medici, have we met before?”
