Chapter 757: NIGHTMARE
Misha purposely went home early after his chat with Daniel. He wanted to take Kia and Mika to the seaworld, because he had promised his little daughter, but when he arrived home he couldn't find the two of them anywhere.
"Where are Kia and Mika?" Misha asked Garry, the butler of this house. His face was displeased, because he knew that Kia was still recovering, although she was much better than before. Her fever had also gone down.
On the other hand, Garry looked guilty as he answered Misha's question haltingly because he was afraid that Misha would be furious, since he had not succeeded in preventing Kia and Mika from leaving.
"Miss Kia brought Mika home this morning, not long after you left for the office, Sir," he said carefully. "We have tried to hold her back, but she is adamant about leaving." They truly had done everything that they could.
Garry and some of the other servants did have suspicions about who Kia and Mika were, especially when they looked at the little girl and saw the changes in Misha, who had consciously remodeled one of the rooms here into a child's room, but of course they couldn't voice that out.
"Why didn't anyone tell me?" Misha had said that if something happened to the two of them, he should be notified immediately.
"I have tried to call your cell phone several times, but you didn't pick up. I even left several messages." Garry then added. "I've also left a message to Mr. Richard and also Ms. Dania."
Misha couldn't blame Garry, because he didn't have his cell phone on him all this morning and didn't see Richard or Dania, because he just left the office without telling anyone.
He was in a bad mood after talking to Daniel and deduced what had happened to Kia four years ago based on the reaction he gave.
"Left? What did they leave on?" Misha asked again. He felt uneasy. Why did Kia have to leave when her condition was still not fully recovered?
Misha, who had just taken off his work coat, immediately took his car keys again.
"Ms. Kia left by taxi, I had offered to drive them home, but Ms. Kia refused the offer," Garry quickly explained this, while following Misha from behind. He was afraid that his master would be furious because of this.
Misha tended to be uncaring and rarely got angry over trivial things, but he could see that anything that had to do with Kia and Mika was not trivial to him.
"Okay," said Misha briefly, who then immediately went to the garage.
He knew that Kia wouldn't listen to what Garry had to say, if she wouldn't even listen to him, let alone what anyone else had to say. Thus, he could understand Garry's effort and frustration when persuading her.
But now he had to make sure that Kia and Mika had arrived safely and that they were all right.
Along the way, Misha tried to call her cellphone, but it seemed that his number had been blocked by Kia, so he couldn't reach the woman and this made Misha frown and growl in annoyance. Why was it so hard to deal with that woman?!
Misha hit the steering wheel and grumbled in low voice, venting his frustration while he sped up.
It didn't take long for Misha to arrive at the apartment where Kia and Mika lived and knocked on the apartment door.
He knocked several times until someone opened the door. But much to his surprise, it was a man who opened the door.
Misha's whole body stiffened, his brain suddenly couldn't work and his blood turned frozen. He couldn't believe what he was seeing right now. This was impossible, right?
As far as Misha knew, Kia's roommate was a woman, Keira, but standing in front of her was a man who was half a head shorter than him, staring at himself in confusion.
"Who are you looking for?" the man asked in a probing voice.
How could there be a man in an apartment occupied by a small child and two women? Why were they so reckless by letting this man into their place just like that?
Misha didn't understand what was going on in Kia's mind, but he couldn't contain his annoyance and it was so obvious on his face that it made the man tense up.
"Who are you?" the man asked defensively.
"Where is Kia?" Misha asked in a cold, cruel voice. He clenched his fists so tightly that his muscles could be seen protruding from his rolled up sleeves. He was ready to fight anyone at this point.
"Kia is sleeping in her room, you are her friend?" the man asked again. He still wouldn't let Misha in.
Sleeping in her room? How could this man know that Kia was sleeping in her room? Misha's mind had drifted to the worst possibilities he could imagine and that was not all, if Keira hadn't come, maybe he would have taken an inappropriate action by now, following his impulsive urges.
"Who is that?" Keira asked from inside because she heard the conversation at the door. "Oh, Mr. Tordoff?" Keira frowned when she saw Misha and approached her. "Did you come to see Kia? She's sleeping in her room."
"Yes, this man already told me that," said Misha sarcastically and glared at the man who was still standing in the doorway.
Sensing the possible misunderstanding, Keira immediately intervened and pulled him from the door, to let Misha into the apartment.
"Let me introduce you both, he's my fiancé, Ben." Keira tried to smooth the situation and prevent the misunderstanding from getting worse. "Ben, this is…" Keira was confused about introducing Misha. "…Mr. Tordoff." In the end she just said that, without explaining the relationship between Kia and him.
Hearing this, Misha was not very happy, but he was quite amused because it turned out that this man named Ben was just Keira's fiancé.
Ben then reached out his hand to Misha, but was greeted coldly, as a sign of introduction and Misha walked into the apartment.
"I am going to meet Kia," Misha mumbled.
"But, she's sleeping." Keira tried to stop him, but Misha didn't listen.
He had been to this house once and knew where Kia's room was, therefore, it wasn't difficult to find it.
And when Misha opened the door, the room was not locked. One more thing that made him feel unhappy.
In the room, there was only some furniture that only met the basic necessities and also some items that seemed to belong to Mika.
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the door, there was a bed that could barely fit two people, where Misha could see Kia sleeping while hugging Mika, both of them were seen sleeping soundly.
Therefore, Misha entered the room carefully, as much as possible not to make a sound.
But, Keira approached him in the room.
"Mr. Tordoff," Keira called in a low voice. "Kia..."
But, before she could continue her explanation, she had seen Misha sitting with his leg crossed over the other beside the bed. He looked like someone who was determined not to go anywhere.
"I'll wait here," Misha said quietly. He then looked fiercely at Keira which made the woman feel that she was being chased away. It couldn't be said she felt wrong, because that was Misha's intention. He didn't want to be disturbed when he was with his wife and child.
Seeing this determination, Keira couldn't say anything more and chose to leave, because it was useless for her to say something, which would only wake Kia. When she came, it seemed that she was not in good health, so she persuaded her to rest.
"Okay then," said Keira. "If you need anything take it yourself, I'll go out," she told Misha who nodded in understanding.
After that, Keira closed the door and let Misha be, while she went out with Ben, who looked still confused as to why the man named Mr. Tordoff looked at him with irritated eyes.
"You don't know Mr. Tordoff? The Tordoffs?" Keira asked her fiancé.
Ben frowned briefly and shook his head. "No, is he from a famous family?"
The corners of Keira's lips twitched when she heard the question, she knew that her fiancé wasn't very up to date with the latest news, but she couldn't believe that he really didn't know the Tordoff family.
It turned out that there were indeed people who didn't know about the Tordoff family and now, Keira knew one more thing about her fiancé.
"Should I find out about that?" Ben asked innocently, but Keira shook her head earnestly.
"You don't need to know, just stick with your innocence," Keira said while holding Ben's hand as they both left the apartment.
=======================
Kia didn't know how long she had been asleep, but when she opened her eyes, it felt like she was dreaming because in front of her she could see Misha staring at her.
With that in mind, Kia closed her eyes again, only to open them a few minutes later and find Misha still there.
Furrowing her brow, Kia grumbled. "What is this nightmare?" she grumbled in annoyance. Why did she have to be bothered by Misha even in her own dreams? This was totally unfair.
"This is not a dream. It's really me." Misha told her the bad news, which was much worse than a nightmare.
"No way," Kia hissed disapprovingly.
