The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 343

After sunset was over, they decided to leave the beach and had dinner. Not far from the resort there were several beach-side restaurants, offering many different specialties.

Vega was in the mood to eat Italian food so, they headed to the nicest Italian restaurant they saw in front of them. It was a beautiful 1-star Michelin restaurant with a Mediterranean style.

They had a nice dinner with red wine, mussel, steak, salad, pasta, panna cotta for dessert, and limoncello. It was a big dinner, and they enjoyed it so much.

All the dishes were cooked to perfection by an Italian chef who made time to come out and greeted his guests for the night.

Everyone had a great time eating dinner. The atmosphere was very pleasant. It was perfect.

“After France, we will have fun in Italy,” Mischa said. “I like visiting the small towns in Tuscany. What do you think?”

Vega nodded. “Sounds good! While we are there, we can also visit my grandfather’s castle. I haven’t seen Grandpa Lauriel for a long time.”

“That will be nice,” Mischa replied.

He remembered Lauriel was very much like Alaric, his son. Both men were cold, reclusive, and formidable. They were also used to violence when they were younger.

Meeting Lauriel together with Vega as her boyfriend would mean meeting one of the elders in her big family. It would be a good opportunity for Mischa to pay his respects and at the same time, ask for Lauriel’s blessings to marry Vega, before he met her father in New York.

All right. He could do it. He had known Lauriel for a long time now. Mischa was sure that it wouldn’t be difficult to get his blessings.

“I don’t want us to stay at the Medici castle for the duration of our stay in Tuscany, though,” Vega quickly added. “Let’s explore the province and stay in many different small towns before we end the journey by visiting grandfather.”

“I like that,” Mischa said.

Ahh.. Vega really understood him. It was better to spend more time together, just the two of them, before visiting her grandfather. They needed that quality time.

That sounded like a good plan. They would explore the southern part of France before they continued their journey to Italy. From Italy, they would go to Switzerland, explore the small country from end to end, and then visit her other grandparents’ property in Grindelwald.

Perhaps, they would stay longer in Switzerland to enjoy the beautiful summer in the alps. It was one of his favorite places in the world.

Mischa already told Vega that after he retired he planned to move to Swiss and stayed on the mountain. That was… if Vega wanted it.

They could also continue their travel for an indefinite time, and make Swiss as a home base to go home to. And after a good while, maybe they could settle down and build a family, raise one kid or two. It would be wonderful.

Ahh.. that reminded him. Would Vega be interested in having children? They had not talked about this. Mischa thought that at his age, he was finally ready to have children. But, he didn’t know about Vega.

He knew she was pregnant once and she lost her unborn babies during a horrific incident, but the current Vega didn’t remember it, and for good reason.

If she remembered the devastating incident, she must be hurt deeply.

Mischa vowed that he would forever protect Vega from that painful memory. They would make new memories and filled her life with only good things from now on.

“I would love to have kids in the future,” Mischa suddenly spoke after he finished his limoncello.

The words that came out of his mouth were totally unexpected and, for a few seconds, Vega was stunned. She could only bat her eyelashes and her mouth agape.

She looked at him with an amused expression. What made Mischa suddenly talk about children? Was his clock ticking?

Well, he was almost 50 this year, but being an Alchemist, that didn’t matter one bit because he would be young forever.

The people of his kind didn’t need to worry about being the old dads, or becoming too old and too tired to care for young children when they aged.

He would always be the young and strong man that he was today. So, he wouldn’t have any problems having children a bit later.

So… why did he suddenly talk about having children?

After she could overcome her surprise, Vega smiled and nodded sheepishly.

“I would love to have kids too,” she said in a barely audible voice.

Ahh.. she was so happy that he discussed children with her, even though she didn’t expect the conversation would happen this soon.

If only they were not in a public place, she would have jumped at him and kissed his lips.

Uff… they were still in the Italian restaurant, and this place was full of guests. So many people would see them and probably laugh at her for being too aggressive.

“Ah.. thank god,” Mischa chuckled. “Well… I just thought we need to lay our cards in the open before we move further in our relationship. I want you to know everything about me so you won’t feel surprised or disappointed when you find out that I am not like who you thought I was, for example.”

Vega nodded in agreement.

“Yes, I think it’s very important. However, to be honest, I am actually surprised that you talk about children all of a sudden.” She quickly added, “Pleasantly surprised, though.. not badly surprised…”

“Ahh… I see.”

“What made you suddenly decide to talk about it, of all things?” Vega asked Mischa. She was honestly curious.

“Well…” Mischa cleared his throat when he replied to her question. “I want to know if I should wear protection when we—”

He didn’t continue his words. Vega’s face had turned so red, like a boiled crab. Her expression looked so adorable that he wanted to pinch her nose and kissed her right then and there.

Suddenly Vega felt her chest pounding so hard and she couldn’t keep a straight face. She smiled so wide like a fool.

Gosh… this man was so direct, she thought.

She loved it!
