The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 332

John looked doubtful, but he answered Ren’s question in a confident voice. “She does look like Madame. Because I often saw Madame around, I could see the similarities.”

Ren put his hand in his pocket and smiled faintly. “I’m afraid I can’t remember my wife enough to confirm that.”

The woman died in the cruise ship accident they took when Ren and his wife decided to go on their second honeymoon after that famous conference he held last year.

Unfortunately, Ren didn’t remember anything at all. All the photos of her that he kept in his home were only two-dimensional documentation that did not show her soul and personality.

Ren couldn’t imagine what that woman was like, apart from the stories he heard from the people around him.

“Well .. Madame doesn’t have a twin anyway, so the resemblances are just a coincidence,” said John hastily. “Who’s that lady?”

“That is Miss Vega Medici,” said Ren. “She’s a friend of Tatiana Petrova.”

“Oh …” John nodded and said no more. He just followed Ren, who walked steadily out of the lounge to John’s car, parked in front of the lounge.

When he was about to get into the car, Ren caught sight of Vega and Tatiana as they entered a luxury car, and then drove away.

Not long after, several well-built men with mysterious appearances got into three black Mercedes cars in the parking lot. They immediately followed the car that took Vega just now.

Ren turned to John and asked. “Do you know who they are?”

John nodded. “They are a group of bodyguards. I saw them securing the perimeter from earlier while you were chatting with your guests inside.”

“Oh…” Ren became astonished when he heard that.

He knew that Tatiana was not a person with such a lifestyle, surrounded by bodyguards wherever she went. Ren had checked everything about the girl through his secretary before agreeing to this interview request.

Then, those people … who were they protecting?

His thoughts drifted to Vega Medici, who accompanied Tatiana to see him.

Were they Vega’s bodyguards?

This made Ren wonder who that girl really was.

Finally, he signaled for John to get into the car and drive. In the car, Ren opened his cell phone and search for information about who Vega Medici was.

The man immediately frowned in astonishment. He couldn’t find information about Vega Medici anywhere. His suspicions grew more and more.

That girl was definitely not an ordinary person. Only people with great connections could cover their digital tracks this well.

Ren tapped his finger on the cellphone. He then did a cross-search between the names Tatiana Petrova and Vega Medici. He couldn’t find any hits on the search engines.

Ah .. wait…

His sharp eyes saw a little news about Vega Linden, who went missing seven years ago, and the whole world was asked to look for her. Vega Linden was Tatiana Petrova’s schoolmate.

Ren frowned. He remembered Tatiana mention that Vega Medici was her high school friend.

Wait … what was the connection between Vega Linden, Tatiana Petrova, and Vega Medici?

Ren looked up and asked John who was driving his car. “John, do you know Vega Linden?”

John nodded. “I do, sir. The news of her kidnapping took the world by storm seven years ago. She still hasn’t been found until now.”

“Is it true?” Ren tried to search the internet for news about Vega Linden, but he could not find any significant information. “Is it true that the kidnapping took the world by storm? I didn’t find anything on the news about her, at least, not in the big media.”

“Oh, really?” Now John, too, frowned. “Impossible. As I recall, the news about her was everywhere, showing her face. Even her reclusive father appeared in all the media, begging for his daughter to be returned.”

“Her father? Who is her father?” asked Ren with interest.

He began to suspect that Vega Linden and Vega Medici were the same person.

“Oh, sorry, I forgot that you don’t remember anything for the last thirty years, so you certainly don’t know who the Lindens are.” John cleared his throat. “The Linden family owns RMI. Uhmm .. if I’m not mistaken RMI is one of the SpaceLab investors, right?”

“Oh …” Ren was shocked to hear John’s explanation.

He knew that the Linden family was the RMI owner, an investor and founder of SpaceLab. But since he could not remember anything about the world and even himself from his birth until a year ago, he did not know the news about this family.

Now, it all made sense. It was possible that the Lindens intentionally erased all digital tracks of everything related to Vega and her kidnapping case seven years ago.

They managed to find her and did not want the faces of Vega and her father to remain circulating on the internet. As a very wealthy and powerful family, they certainly could use their power to control the internet.

“Vega Medici … Vega Linden …” Ren nodded while muttering the two names. “What a beautiful name.”

Ren became very sure that Vega Medici was Vega Linden.

No wonder there were so many bodyguards protecting her. Her father certainly didn’t want to lose Vega again to bad people who wanted to kidnap her.

So.. apparently, the girl he met earlier was the young miss of the Linden family.

No wonder she was with Mischa Rhionen this morning, thought Ren.

Meanwhile, in the car that brought them back to the expo, Tatiana kept watching Vega’s face. The girl finally realized that Tatiana was constantly staring at her. She turned her head and frowned in surprise.

“Why do you keep looking at me like that?” asked Vega. “Got something on my face?”

Tatiana shook her head. “No. I am just observing you …”

“Why? Is there something wrong with me?” asked Vega again.

Tatiana shook her head again. “That’s not it. But … do you realize it? I think Professor Renald Hanenberg likes you.”

“Professor Renald Neumann,” said Vega correcting Tatiana’s words.

“Ah, yes .. you’re right. Professor Renald Neumann. I was wrong,” Tatiana quickly corrected her words. “You have memorized his new name correctly. Ahh … no wonder he likes you so much.”

“Don’t talk nonsense,” said Vega with a laugh. “You really love gossip.”

“Eh … no, I’m telling the truth. I can see it clearly. From the way he spoke, from his voice, his attitude towards you … Even a blind person can see that he likes you,” said Tatiana. “What about you? Don’t you like him?”

Vega stared at Tatiana before answering. “Hmm … I don’t know. I think he is very intelligent. His attitude was also charming. But … I don’t think I’m interested in him.”

“Ahh .. really? Absolutely not interested?” asked Tatiana to confirm Vega’s words.

Vega nodded. “Maybe a little. I think I do sympathize with him.”

“Oh …”

“Well .. we just met. I don’t really know him that much to develop any feelings toward him. I just think he’s very intelligent, and his life story makes me sympathetic. But .. nothing more than that,” said Vega.

Tatiana nodded in understanding. “Ahh .. of course. You are Vega Linden. Not even a prince is good enough for you.”

“You are exaggerating. It’s not because I am Vega Linden,” said Vega, shaking her head.

“Of course. You are the only daughter of the richest family in the world. Your family really loves you and protects you. You are also very beautiful and fun. You are the perfect girl. Of course, the man who will be your match must be .. perfect. He must also be loved by your family,” said Tatiana while pinching Vega. “Someone like … Mischa Rhionen.”

Vega just smiled. She didn’t respond to Tatiana’s words anymore. She focused her gaze out the window.

For some reason, because Tatiana mentioned Mischa’s name just now, Vega’s mind drifted towards the man.

She remembered that she liked Mischa very much when she was younger. However, after she had lost her memory for so many years, she didn’t know how she felt about him anymore.

What was clear, Vega felt delighted when she met Mischa back in Paris. Starting from the warm dinner together with her school friends. Then she and Mischa spent time together in Champ De Mars, ended with Mischa cooking dinner for her…

Today, Mischa went with her all day to tour the expo. Vega always felt happy to be around that man.

Was this a sign that she still had feelings for Mischa? Did the old flame return after they spent time together?

Ahh .. Vega remembered that the past few days, Mischa was openly showing his interest in Vega. He also did not hesitate to ask Vega out on a date.

The man even gave signs that he was willing to travel the world with his wife if she wanted to, even though Mischa wished to live in seclusion after retiring from RMI.

Did he mean to tell Vega that he wished to marry her?

For some reason, Vega’s face became hot, and her cheeks flushed.
