Chapter 735: DID YOU JUST ATTACK ME?

Chapter 735: DID YOU JUST ATTACK ME?It took Misha a whole month to finally come to a decision, although it couldn't be called one at all. At least, there was finally something he could do about his current state.        

Today, Richard was quite surprised when he came to report what was on his boss' schedule as usual but found Misha already talking to Dania, instructing to cancel all his appointments for the day because he had to go somewhere.    

"All of today's appointments?" Dania looked like she was about to faint at what she just heard. "Every single one?"    

Hearing this, Richard looked wary because he didn't know what was going on right now and why Misha wanted to cancel his schedule for an entire day. This was simply insane…    

"But, today there are at least two meetings with external parties," Dania looked like someone who was pleading, of course she begged Misha to reconsider his decision.    

It was a walk in the garden to cancel a meeting with an internal party, but when the meeting involved an external party, she had to give a credible reason, otherwise Misha's reputation would be damaged later.    

Only, Misha was currently not in a mood which compelled him to bother about keeping his good name. He didn't care about that now when he finally made this decision.    

"We're going now Richard," Misha said as he got up from his seat and took his coat. "You can tell them anything." Misha glanced at Dania. The middle-aged woman looked like she would cry at any given moment because she was given such a task.    

The reason? It was too sudden for Misha to cancel on people and it wasn't at all casual for him to do something mindless like now.    

If this was Jayden, she could understand it because he seemed more spontaneous and tended to do things on the spur of the moment.    

But, Misha was different, he was a person who already had a schedule planned for the next month. He was a very organized person, therefore, to see him like this was quite surprising for Dania. Was this man okay?    

He wasn't acting like he normally would.    

"We're leaving now, Richard," Misha repeated.    

"Oh, yes…" Richard looked confused and when he turned and looked at Dania, the middle aged woman asked what happened with her eyes, but all she received was a shake of the man's head, because he himself didn't understand what had happened to Misha until he acted like this.    

Richard didn't even know where they were going.    

The only way to know where they were going was to follow his boss wordlessly. So that was what he did, hurriedly chasing Misha's steps that looked very fast.    

"Where are we going?" Richard asked when they were finally in the car.    

"We're going to the daycare," said Misha, who then looked at the street with a gloomy face.    

"The daycare?" Richard frowned, but it only took him a few seconds to understand which daycare Misha was referring to since there weren't many small children around.    

It could be said that Misha had absolutely no association with children at all.    

Coming to this understanding, Richard then immediately drove his car away from there, so that they would arrive at the daycare before it was time for dismissal.    

========================      

Misha arrived at the daycare just before dismissal and saw small children around the age of five coming out of their classrooms and approaching their mothers or fathers who came to pick them up with happy faces.    

Misha also saw how the interaction between each father and his child was displayed very clearly in front of him and this made his forehead furrow. It wasn't clear what was going on in his mind right now, but he certainly looked like someone who was confused and didn't know what to do.    

"That looks like Mikaela," said Richard, pointing to a child among four young children who had not yet been picked up by their parents.    

The little girl is very similar to the one in the photo, she has round eyes and face, and an expression that didn't seem to care about her surroundings. It could be said that this little girl really looked like Misha when he was still a child, only this was the female version.        

Misha immediately looked at the little girl Richard was pointing at and his body suddenly stiffened, because he didn't know what to do.    

It never occurred to him that he would have a child, or he would become a father. It never even crossed his mind that he would come face to face with a small and innocent version of himself.    

As if reality wanted to smack him right in the face, Misha could see how similar the two of them were, even at a glance, Misha could tell that his nature had descended on this little girl.    

She looked so calm beside her three friends, who couldn't stay still, waiting to be picked up.    

While her three friends were running here and there, the little girl just squatted on the ground, concentrated on drawing something using a tree branch.    

There was a superintendent watching over the other three children who were starting to fuss because they wanted their parents. However, since Mikaela was very quiet, she could take her supervision off of her and calm the other three kids down.    

This daycare was not that big and it could be said that this was not a daycare that met the standards in his mind because the playground equipment such as slides, seesaw and swings looked very old and this made Misha frown.    

What if Mikaela got on one of those games and fell or the game got broken? Those old games looked unsafe to play again and it was time to get rid of them.    

Misha didn't look happy at all. What did Kia think when leaving their child in such an ugly daycare?    

Mikaela didn't seem to care about her surroundings though. She would only raise her head when a parent came to pick up their child, because she thought her mother had come, but when she saw that it was not her mother, she would go back to being busy with her own devices, making scribbles on the sand using dry branches.    

"Where's Kia? Why wasn't she here to pick her up yet?" said Misha. He didn't want this question to sound like a grunt, even so, it sounded like a curse.    

"At this hour, Ms. Kiandra will be in her class. She restarted her education a year ago, usually she would be here around this hour to pick up Mikaela and they have lunch together before they return home," Richard reported.    

When Misha said to find out about Kiandra, Richard didn't do it half-heartedly, he put all his might to look up every detail of information about the woman, because he was already very impatient with Misha's lack of proactiveness in this matter.    

Therefore, he took note of everything in Kiandra's daily itinerary as well as the class schedule that she took for this semester.    

Richard knew that Misha's personality was very unpredictable and this man wasn't used to getting involved in situations where you had to show your feelings, but still what Misha did made him almost lose his temper.    

"After returning home, Mikaela will stay in the apartment together with Ms. Kiandra's roommate, while Ms. Kiandra will leave for her night shift," said Richard, deliberately telling this down to the last of the details. He knew that Misha would react to this information.    

"What do you mean? Kia would leave the child with a stranger?" Misha turned his attention away from the little girl who looked very calm and glared at Richard, as if he had just spit out obscenities at himself.    

"Roommate," Richard repeated, emphasizing the word.    

"They're still strangers," Misha growled. He couldn't believe that Kia was so reckless to do this.    

But Richard, who knew what was in Misha's mind, said lightly. "It is very difficult for a single mother to take care of a child, juggling between attending school and working."    

Misha glanced at Richard with a sharp gaze. "Then she doesn't need to work, she just needs to take care of the child and go to school."    

Richard then said lightly. "From where will she get the money if she doesn't work? They need money to pay rent and also to eat. Ms. Kiandra also has to think about the cost of Mikaela's education."    

Hearing this, Misha realized that this was impossible. Money didn't really mean much to him, but he didn't think that Kia would have so much trouble with money.    

"Then she can postpone her school first. She can find a job that has a much better income," Misha grumbled. He felt very uncomfortable discussing this with Richard because he felt himself starting to notice things one by one that he hadn't thought of before.    

"Every job that is better, of course requires high qualifications." Of course, Misha knew this better than anyone, as he didn't hesitate to pay a higher salary for someone with higher qualifications as well. "If she doesn't go to school then she won't get a better job."        

What Richard wanted to say was that these three things were things that Kia had to live with. She couldn't choose, she didn't even have a choice if she had to say.    

"Life as a single parent is very difficult, especially when you have to fight alone to support yourself and your children."    

Richard wanted Misha to understand this.    

"Did you just attack me, Richard?" Misha asked in a low voice.
