The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 335
All that, added with feelings of guilt because he was negligent in protecting Vega, causing the girl to be kidnapped, made Mischa want to make up for what happened in the past by taking care of Vega for life.
He would not let anything bad happen to her. Just like Ren, who said he wanted to pay for his sins by devoting his life to make Vega happy, Mischa also wanted to make up for his failure in protecting Vega seven years ago by being there for her and protecting her all his life.
Right now, he only wanted to take care of Vega and make her happy. However, he certainly couldn’t do it if Vega chose to get back together with Ren.
That’s why Mischa felt very relieved and happy because Vega didn’t show any signs that she was attracted to Ren.
Now, the path had been opened for Mischa to approach Vega. He had already received the blessing from the Linden family. And as it turned out, Vega also openly welcomed his advances.
Today, Mischa felt really happy.
“Where do you want to go shopping?” asked the man with a broad smile. He opened the car door and waited until Vega sat down and buckled up, then closed the door and got into the driver’s seat.
Vega mentioned a well-known high-end boutique, and Mischa immediately agreed. He drove his car leisurely toward the place.
Not long after, they were already walking hand in hand into an exclusive boutique. Two staff greeted them warmly and invited them to choose the products.
“What do you need?” asked Vega as she turned to Mischa. “Oh .. by the way, are you still wearing only black outfits?”
She looked around them and found a row of brightly colored casual clothes. Almost none was black. Mischa also noticed the same thing. The man shook his head.
“No. It’s time for a change,” he said, smiling broadly. “I actually like pink and blue.”
Vega’s eyes widened when she heard the man’s words. “Pink? Really…? Oh…”
“You may not know this, but I used to be a flamboyant guy. I like wearing bright colored clothes … and various accessories,” Mischa laughed. He showed his right ear. “I also wore earrings. You can still see the piercing here.”
Vega pursed her lips and stared at the man closely. “Really? Whoaaa… how interesting! Then what made you change drastically and wear all black for a dozen years? You’re like a grim reaper…”
“It was actually twenty-three years,” said Mischa.
Ahh.. he suddenly felt nostalgic when Vega said he looked like a grim reaper.
“Ahh .. that long? It’s as old as me…” Vega commented.
Mischa shrugged. “I started wearing all black because I was mourning. Twenty-three years ago, your father was presumed dead. It made me feel so devastated, and I felt that the only color that could represent my feelings was the color of death.”
Vega stared at Mischa closely, listening to every word that came out of the man’s lips.
Ah .. she really did not know that Mischa chose to wear all black because he was grieving for her father. Alaric Rhionen, her father was thought to be dead for years when Vega was still in her mother’s womb.
“I didn’t know that …” muttered the girl.
Mischa smiled faintly. He remembered that 1.5 years ago, he had actually told Vega the same thing when she was still his personal assistant. Ahh … of course, Vega didn’t remember this too.
Because of that, Mischa then repeated his story. “After years of wearing all black, I became used to it, until now. And suddenly, 23 years passed just like that…”
Mischa also mourned the disappearance of Vega and he was drowned in guilt and regret. That was why he still wore all-black until today.
But now … for some reason, when they were in this boutique surrounded by brightly colored clothes, Mischa felt his world was so colorful and bright.
Vega brought the colors back into the world of Mischa Rhionen.
With a wry smile, the man took a pink short-sleeved shirt and put it on his chest. “What do you think about this?”
Vega nodded happily. “It looks good on you!”
She then took the same colored shorts and put them on her waist. “I’ll buy matching shorts. Let’s have the matching outfits for the holiday.”
“Ahaha .. that’s nice. I’d like that. Okay, I still need some casual shirts, boardshorts for swimming, and sandals,” said Mischa.
“Me too. I’m going to buy some summer dresses, bikinis, and sandals,” said Vega.
They continued shopping for the items they needed for sailing the next day. Two hours later, Vega and Mischa went back to the Nobel Hotel with several shopping bags filled with colorful holiday clothes.
“You guys shop a lot,” said Altair with a laugh. “We will only sail for three days. But you bought clothes enough for a month apparently …”
“You’re exaggerating,” said Vega, sticking out her tongue. “Only for a week.”
“Oh .. but after three days, I’ll have to go back to New York,” said Altair. “Do you want to extend your vacation? I have to go home to work, but you don’t have to go back with me.”
He turned to Mischa. “Would you like to accompany my sister to extend her vacation? I really have to go back to the office. There will be a board meeting next week. I think father will let Vega come with you if you want to take her out.”
“I actually plan to do that,” said Mischa happily. He turned to Vega and asked her with a sweet smile on his face. “You said you wanted to travel the world. Would you like to continue your vacation with me after Altaïr returns to New York?”
Vega looked elated, and her cheeks still blushed as she nodded. “I really want to! But .. don’t you also have to work?”
Mischa shook his head. “No. I’ll leave everything to Altair. After all, he will soon take over RMI. I haven’t take any leave in seven years. I think the company will be fine without me.”
“Ahh .. then, I will be delighted,” said Vega. “I’ll tell father about this.”
Altair and Mischa just stared at Vega’s back view as the girl walked away and entered her bedroom. The two then exchanged glances and smiled. It wasn’t long before they heard Vega’s cheerful voice talking to Elios on the phone.
“Hello, dad…. “
