Chapter 736: CATS DON'T EAT CARROTRichard just wanted to tell Misha that what Kiandra went through was very difficult and not as easy as he thought, especially the matters involving money.
It was very difficult to discuss money when Misha was so used to having a lot of money. Even their point of views were so different, because the definition of 'no money' or 'difficulty making money' was not in the vocabulary of Misha at all.
Therefore, Richard wanted to tell him this, trying to make Misha see more clearly that 'money' was a privilege that not everyone had, a privilege that he had and not everyone could enjoy.
However, it seemed that Richard was in too much of a hurry to show this view so Misha read it pretty quickly.
"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. He looked at Richard through the rear view mirror and saw the man trying to avert his eyes.
"Of course not, I'm just saying what I think," said Richard, then turned his attention back to the daycare that looked completely silent. "Whoa? Where's Mikaela? Has she been picked up?"
Hearing this, Misha immediately turned his attention back to the daycare. He immediately forgot his plan to cut this guy a bonus later when he didn't see the little girl where she was before. There was no one there.
Had she been picked up by Kia? But, they didn't see anyone coming to pick her up. If Kia had really picked her up, then they would have seen it, right?
Without thinking, Misha then got out of the car and walked in a hurry to the daycare, where he didn't see anyone there.
Had he not seen it? Had he paid so much attention to what Richard said earlier that he didn't see Kia coming? But, that was impossible, they talked for less than three minutes and he didn't take his eyes off any more than that.
Therefore, even if Kia had picked her up, they should still be able to see her. She must not be far away. But, where was she?
Now, the three children waiting together with Mikaela were gone as well, so the little girl should be alone, right?
Misha cursed softly, he frowned. Where was the kid?
Even the adults who were supposed to be here earlier, weren't there now.
However, when Misha was confused about where his little daughter was, he found Mikaela playing with a cat in the corner of the building, under a slide. No wonder she was not seen, because her position was quite hidden.
Without Misha knowing, he took a deep breath. He didn't think that Mikaela would be there, but his relief when he saw that the little girl was fine could be seen clearly on his face, which was quite panicked a few seconds ago.
And then… what should he do?
Misha was standing about ten steps away from the little girl. The building wasn't that big, so he could see the whole place quite clearly.
Mikaela seemed to be opening the lunch box and taking something out of it. It seemed like they were leftovers that she didn't eat.
"You can't give the cat a carrot. Cats don't eat carrots." Unbeknownst to Misha, he had already walked up to the little girl and reprimanded her when she gave the rest of the carrot pieces to the unkempt kitten.
Hearing someone talking to her, Mikaela raised her head in surprise. Her brows furrowed together, as if she didn't like Misha's arrival.
It was undeniable now. Seeing her wary attitude which clearly showed her displeasure, made Misha feel like looking at himself. Not only that, she seemed to have taken on another of Misha's traits, which was not liking carrots.
It was very strange to see someone who had almost the same traits as him.
"Cats don't… eat carrots." Misha was stunned. He then looked at the dirty little cat who ate the carrots that Mikaela gave it, while the little girl looked at it with her innocent face and questioning eyes, but she didn't say anything.
"The cat is hungry, so it eats anything," Mikaela said, her speech already very clear for a three-year-old and she seemed very calm.
"Cats shouldn't eat carrots," said Misha, still defending his opinion. He then frowned at the cat. Weird cat.
However, Mikaela seemed to want to emphasize that this little cat did eat carrots, so she took another piece of carrot and gave it to the cat which ate it immediately.
Seeing this, Misha couldn't say anything.
"Where is your mom?" Misha asked. He was still standing, not trying to crouch down to match himself with the little girl, while Mikaela had to look up when she spoke to him.
"Mom is at school," Mikaela replied.
She was smart enough for a kid her age and seemed like she could talk to and understand what people were saying to her.
"You should have eaten those carrots."
"I don't like it," she answered simply.
"Why haven't you been picked up yet?" Misha asked again.
Mikaela looked at Misha then looked away and returned her attention to the cat beside her. "Mother will be here in a minute."
Misha then looked at his watch and saw that Kia was already half an hour late while it was time for lunch. "Are you hungry? Have you had lunch?"
"Not yet," Mikaela answered briefly while stroking the cat after putting her empty lunch box into her bag.
"Want to have lunch with me? I'll buy you some good food," Misha said. He didn't know how to talk to a child so small or what to say, but he didn't want this kid to starve while waiting for Kia.
Then again, where was that woman? How could she leave her child like this? And not to mention, how could there not be a single person watching over this place?
If he was a kidnapper, it would already have been a few minutes since the child got kidnaped and no one would know about it.
"No," replied Mikaela. "Mika can't go out with strangers."
"I'm not a stranger," Misha said, but then he corrected himself. "I'll just buy you some food and after that, we can go back to your house. How about that?"
Mikaela glanced at Misha, a sharp glance from her beautiful eyes, implying her distrust of Misha.
"No, I want to wait for Mommy," Mikaela said in a childlike voice, but also firm.
"I'll buy you a toy," Misha coaxed. "Tell me what toy you want, I'll buy it."
On the other hand, Richard who followed Misha and stood a little away from them to provide privacy, but could still hear their chatter, could only pat his head when he heard Misha's way of coaxing his daughter.
Didn't what he was saying just now sound like he was trying to kidnap this kid? Misha sounded like he wanted to kidnap this kid and take her somewhere. How could this man act like that?
Mikaela pursed her lips, the look in her eyes directed at Misha became more alert and this confused the man, because he didn't know how to respond to this child.
"No," Mikaela answered firmly. She then stood up and gripped her backpack tightly, and walked ahead of Misha. She was about to run toward the daycare building with the intention of asking for help.
But, of course Misha didn't let that happen, he grabbed the little girl's hand.
Misha didn't want to hurt her. He wasn't crazy enough to hurt his own daughter, he just wanted Mikaela to be around him a little longer, but he didn't know how to express that.
During this time, he always had a hard time showing his emotions, luckily, the work he did didn't require that, but of course this affected his social life, where Misha had a hard time interacting, especially having a relationship that was much deeper than just changing partners.
It was just that, for the past year or so, Misha didn't have a partner. He seemed to be much more focused on his work, than entertaining women who he wasn't interested in. He simply resorted to taking advantage of them.
The problem was; the women understood that they were being taken advantage of, but were not at all bothered by this fact.
"I still want to talk," Misha said while holding Mikaela's small hand. He just wanted to talk and find out more about this girl.
However, it did not look like that in the eyes of the little girl.
"AARGGH!" Mikaela screamed as loud as she could when she couldn't get herself away from Misha. She screamed as loud as she could and it shocked both Richard and Misha.
However, the most surprising thing was not that, because in the next second, Misha could feel someone pushing him really hard and making him take a few steps back before this person grabbed Mikaela and carried her protectively.
Misha's first thought was to fight back, but his resistance vanished when he saw the figure that had pushed him as time seemed to stop when he finally saw who it was.
Meanwhile, from a distance, a young woman came out of the building with a panicked face from hearing Mikaela's screams.
"What happened?!" she asked as she ran to Mikaela who was now being hugged by her mother protectively.
