The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress - Chapter 351

They had breakfast together at a cute table facing the ocean. When Vega and Mischa entered the restaurant, all eyes were immediately on them.

They were both so good-looking that they attracted people’s attention wherever they went.

Vega was used to this but it didn’t mean she liked it. However, she was just happy she could mingle with other guests without having to worry about her many bodyguards, that she didn’t mind the attention too much.

“This is such a beautiful day,” Vega gushed as she cast her gaze around them. It was a beautiful summer day, and they were by the beach. Mischa’s presence made everything better too. She was too damn happy.

“Indeed,” Mischa replied. He was happy too.

Mischa felt like he was given a second chance to redo his life. This time, he could take things slowly and in a relaxed manner. There was no target to kill, no business to handle, only himself and Vega, and the world was their oyster.

He and Vega didn’t need to do anything for other people. He could enjoy all the time in the world with the woman he loved.

They could take it slow, fast, or whatever. They could continue traveling, or settle in the next city they visit. Anything was possible.

Vega, on the other hand, couldn’t stop glancing at her engagement ring. Now that they were outside and she could see the ring under natural light, she thought it looked more beautiful than last night.

Mischa was an orphan, so he didn’t have any family heirloom to give to her, but somehow she thought this ring looked quite antique and valuable.

Did he buy this from a special jeweler?

There seemed to be a lot of thoughts put into it. The ring had a big blue diamond on the center and it was surrounded by several smaller diamonds. It surely looked so expensive, even for the Linden family’s standard.

“I really like my ring so much,” Vega whispered with a sheepish expression when Mischa caught her stealing a glance at her ring again. “This is so beautiful. You have a great taste.”

“I am so glad you like it.” Mischa smiled when he heard her. “Uhm.. I will have to thank your mother again for that.”

“My mother?” Vega looked at Mischa with furrowed brows. “Did she help you choose the ring?”

“No…” Mischa shook his head. He took Vega’s hand with his hand and rubbed it gently. “She gave me her ring to propose to you with. She said I should use her ring since you are her only daughter.”

“Ahh…” Vega was stunned to hear that. She had never seen her mother wear this ring. Aleksis was not into accessories. So, she rarely wore jewelry.

Vega only saw her mother sometimes wore a white ring with a pearl that belonged to her grandmother, Luna Linden. It was gifted to her by Aleksis’ godfather, Lauriel, who later became her father-in-law.

It was the family’s heirloom from Vega’s father’s maternal family and Vega knew the ring would be given to Altair to propose to JM in the future. So, she wouldn’t get that.

However, her mother gave Mischa her own ring to propose to Vega? How wonderful was that?

“This ring belonged to your mother and was passed on to her by her mother, Finland Schneider. It was actually used by your grandfather, Caspar Schneider, to propose to your grandmother,” Mischa explained.

“Ahh.. now that you mentioned it, I remember seeing this ring before. My grandmother used to wear this when I was very little,” Vega pressed her lips in surprise. “This belonged to my great-grandmother and gifted to grandma Finland by grandpa Caspar.”

“Yes. This ring is quite old. I think it was made in the sixteenth century,” said Mischa. “They all want you to have this since you are the only granddaughter in the Schneider family.”

Vega was happy to know that her mother and grandmother were really thoughtful. They understood that Mischa didn’t have any family heirlooms to give her, so they instead shared theirs with him so Vega could keep something that belonged to her family.

“Your mother is great,” said Mischa with a smile. “I am so happy I get to call her ‘mother’ after we get married.”

Mischa was actually slightly older than Aleksis, Vega’s mother, but from the beginning, he had always had great respect for the woman.

He never saw her as someone younger. Since Elios, Aleksis’s husband, was his foster father, the man he had a deep respect for raising him, Mischa saw Aleksis as a mother figure.

The woman was also very mature for her age and could keep a good balance in attitude when interacting with her husband’s foster children.

However, only now did Mischa feel that Aleksis had finally become his mother. Ask him ten years ago if he would ever become a real family member and he would say it was impossible.

Well.. I guess, never say never.

Now that he and Vega were in love and decided to get married, they would soon become a real family.

Mischa remembered when he conveyed his intention to be with Vega one year ago. At that time, Vega just made the decision that she was willing to forgive Ren and restart her life.

Her family was taking her back to New York. Vega already took the memory potion and was sleeping in their private jet’s cabin.

Elios and Aleksis let Mischa see Vega before she left with her family, but he was told not to wake her up and talk to her. Vega’s family didn’t want to confuse Vega if she woke up and saw Mischa.

He was only allowed five minutes and then the next time he would see her again was in one year.

Aleksis saw how sad Mischa was when they told him it was time to go.  She came to him and took his hand. Her eyes were really serious when she asked Mischa what was his intention for her daughter.

“I love Vega,” was all Mischa could say. He didn’t know how to explain his feelings for the girl. He didn’t know exactly when his love for Vega blossomed.

He suspected it was when she lived with him in the penthouse after she started working for him as his assistant. Spending so much time together made him see her as a woman and fall in love with her beautiful personality and intelligence.

She was a really wonderful woman whose suffering made his heart ached, even before he knew Fae was Vega.

At that time, Mischa just wanted to protect her and snatch her away from that awful husband of hers to make her happy.

However, he was not a homewrecker. Since Fae was married, Mischa could only stay away and protect her from afar, to the best of his ability, without crossing the boundary between a man and a woman.

Imagine his delight when the truth came out and he found out Fae was actually Vega and she was not legally married to Ren, since the man married her under a false identity.

Mischa thought it was the sign from the universe that he was given a second chance at love.

And he wouldn’t waste it.

Aleksis was happy to hear his explanation. She gave him her favorite ring to someday propose to her daughter.

And now… here they were. He just proposed to Vega last night and she accepted him right away.

Vega was all smiles and she loved her ring.
