Chapter 731 UNBELIEVEABLE
"She already left this country one month ago."
Those words kept ringing in Misha's ears after he found out that Kia had left the country.
It had been two months since he got the information. He didn't ask Richard to find out more about Kia anymore, because he felt he was thinking too much. Misha felt he was acting out of line.
If he ever asked Richard to find out where Kia was, it seemed very far from his own character, therefore, Misha stopped the search and preferred to get rid of the girl's shadow from him.
However, when he read about Kiandra's family background, he didn't find anything odd.
There weren't any reports of her being tortured or getting violence from her family, thus making her go away from her family and not only that, it seemed her family was a very harmonious family.
She has an older brother and a younger sister who is ten years old, and very sick. She had to be in and out of the hospital several times already.
Her older brother had just graduated, became the best graduate and was applying for a job.
It was just a typical family of five living harmoniously, but why did Kia run away from home? Even her family was looking for her because they didn't understand why Kia did this.
Based on the information that Richard managed to get, her family was still looking for her, but Kiandra chose not to have any contact with her family.
What really happened?
Apart from conflicts with her parents who refused to pay for her education, Kia had no other major problems with them.
Her parents only denied her because they had to pay for the hospitalization fees for her ailing sister.
"Mr. Tordoff, the meeting will be held in fifteen minutes," said Dania, his secretary. She was a middle-aged woman who was working in this company for a long time, so she knew that Misha was not in a good condition, his mood was not good lately. "Is there anything I can do?"
"No, you can go back to your place," said Misha, he then closed the document in front of him, which explained in detail about the condition of Kia's family.
It had been six months and the image of the woman was still very clear in Misha's memory, even though he was very busy with his work, there was always spare time that made him remember the look in her eyes.
What was she really thinking at that time? Why didn't she react at all?
Misha closed his eyes and sighed tiredly. He really had to stop this madness.
That was what Misha should have done, only two months later he recruited Daniel Lyrant, Kia's older brother, into his company.
Of course, the offer given by Tordoff's company would be hard to refuse, even joining this company was a very proud thing, especially since Daniel had just graduated and this was his first job…
Unbeknownst to Misha and even though he kept denying and insisting that he didn't care, in reality, he couldn't deny that he was obsessed with her.
He made a million excuses by saying that Daniel was a valedictorian and people like that were needed in his company.
The young man was an intelligent person, so there was nothing wrong with his choice.
======================
"How was last year's report compared to this year?" Misha asked, when he visited the branch office in L city.
"Ah, the review is here," said Daniel, while providing the necessary documents and explaining some of the highlights of the company's development.
It was not wrong for Misha to recruit Daniel, because he was a bright and responsible young man, he completed several projects with satisfactory results and this made Misha calmer in justifying himself in recruiting Daniel Lyrant.
In the space of two years, he had shown that he could lead and deserved to be given an important position and even greater responsibilities.
So when Misha expanded the Tordoff family's gem business, he asked Daniel to take care of everything, which meant it was a raise and bonus, also a new title for the man.
This could also help the man pay for the treatment of his younger sister, who was now a teenager. Even though his little sister was much better, she still had to make regular visits to the doctor, especially now that she was about to enter high school.
If Kia had continued her education, she would have graduated two years ago and could have worked like Daniel too.
Misha got Kia's grades and from their meeting and how she easily attended meetings while being a translator, he could see that Kia was just as smart as Daniel.
But, why did she just leave?
"How about your sister?" Misha asked Daniel, he didn't seem too concerned about what answer Daniel would give.
But, the question was quite surprising, considering they were discussing a new project and suddenly Misha asked about his family.
This was not the first time Misha had asked about his family, but Daniel still couldn't understand why Misha was interested in information about his family.
However, all this time he only thought this was a form of attention given by Misha because he had shown a good performance and it was also a matter of pride because Misha, who was famous for being indifferent and cold, wanted to know about his family.
"Oh, Alia is fine, two weeks ago she had a check up and the results were pretty good, she will start high school next week," Daniel replied.
He then told a little about his family because Misha didn't stop him and when he had nothing more to say, since the rest was just boring activities, he then impulsively said this without a second thought.
"How about you join us for dinner tonight, if you like?" Daniel thought that Misha would decline the invitation because who would choose to spend the night with a simple foreign family when you could spend it at the top of the highest hotel with fantastic views and expensive wine?
"Okay," Misha replied curtly.
"Huh?"
It was an answer that Daniel didn't expect at all. He would understand much better if Misha refused his request, but how could he just accept it?
Was he serious? He just offered it in a casual way and didn't expect it to come true.
After all, how could he accept the offer so lightly and easily? Didn't he have any party to attend tonight?
Daniel was really shocked when he heard Misha's answer.
========================
"Mr. Tordoff, do you want me to find out about Ms. Kiandra?" Richard asked as he drove to the Lyrants' house.
He couldn't understand how Misha could refuse invitations to dinner with important people to establish relationships, but instead he accepted an invitation to dinner from Daniel?
"No need," Misha said curtly, staring at the road through his car window. "Why would I do that? You think I can't forget her?"
Richard felt like crying when he heard those cold words. Wasn't that pretty obvious? It was so clear that even a blind man could see that he had not forgotten the woman.
Maybe this started from an unanswered curiosity, but because Misha's prestige was so high, it was himself who made things complicated, until finally this became an obsession without him knowing it.
Misha always tried to find out information about Kia from Daniel, even though it would confuse the young man, but Richard who understood the situation could clearly see what Misha really wanted.
If only he could get off his high horse and admit his still curious feelings for Kia, maybe this situation wouldn't have dragged on for years like now.
But, who could tell Misha this when only Richard knew the exact chronology?
Misha would give him nightmares if he told anyone else about this.
"Why's the house so far?" Misha asked when he saw a row of not-so-
big looking houses to either side of the road. They had entered the housing street, but they still hadn't found Daniel's house.
"We've arrived," said Richard then, as he parked his car in front of a simple two-storey house.
There was no fence that separated the yard from the road, therefore, he could just drive in and park his car in the carport and then get out of the car and open the door for Misha.
Maybe because they heard the sound of a car coming or maybe they had been waiting impatiently, so they immediately knew when Misha had arrived and all the family members came out of the house.
"Mr. Tordoff, you've come…" Daniel said in a voice that sounded cheerful, but also hesitant.
He didn't expect Misha Tordoff to be in his house. Wasn't this an honor?
"Good evening," said Misha, he then took a bottle of wine that Richard gave him and handed the bottle of wine to Mrs. Lyrant, then shook hands with Mr. Lyrant.
Maybe this was their first meeting, but to say the least, Misha knew eighty percent about this family, he even knew about their daily activities.
With all the information Misha had, of course Richard couldn't believe him saying he didn't care about Kia and her family anymore.
