Chapter 810: SHOPPING WITH GRANDMA
Daniel got a hike both in position and salary, but with the condition that he had to move to another office, which was a little far from the head office.
For other people who saw this, of course, it could be said as a very good thing because who didn’t want to get a promotion? But, for Daniel, this promotion had a hidden agenda.
Misha wanted to distance him from Kia.
This was a warning to him that Misha could control his life as well as career and that he should stay away from Kia.
However, Daniel had promised his mother to get Kia back, he promised to bring his younger sister home and make her see their mother’s condition, of course, he would try all kinds of ways to be able to meet and talk to Kia again.
“I don’t remember calling you to the head office,” Misha said the moment Daniel stood in front of him. He folded his arms and stared coldly at the young man before him.
“I have something important to talk to you about,” Daniel said politely, he tried to keep his attitude and words down, because he didn’t want to give Misha a chance to criticize him.
“What do you want?” Misha asked again impatiently. “Is this related to the company you oversee?”
“No, this has nothing to do with the company,” Daniel replied. He then lifted his head and looked Misha in the eye, a difficult thing to accomplish when you have to deal with someone like Misha Tordoff, where it took more than just courage to hold up under the pressure he exuded.
“Then you can leave now,” Misha said in a cold voice and then stood up. Today he promised to read a story book before his little daughter went to bed, but it seemed like having dinner with her was an even better idea. He decided to go home early today.
“Mr. Tordoff,” Daniel called hastily, standing up from his seat. He blocked Misha’s way, something that was very bold and a little brash if he could say, which made the man stare intently at Daniel. His boss was now emitting a dangerous aura.
“Get out of my way,” Misha said calmly, but that calmness was far more terrifying than if he had barked out those words.
Daniel trembled slightly when he faced Misha who was like this, but then he steadied himself and took a deep breath.
“I want to talk to Kia.” Daniel clenched his fists so he wouldn’t back down. “I wanted to talk to her because I have something very important to say.”
“I don’t talk about personal matters in the office,” Misha said curtly.
“We can leave the office and talk elsewhere if you want,” said Daniel. He didn’t want to walk out of this room empty-handed and achieve nothing either.
“Or I can kick you out of the company, because what you are doing is very unprofessional.” Misha gave a small smile when he saw the reaction shown by Daniel. “Get out of my sight. Now!”
Misha was walking toward the door when Daniel talked again. He looked desperate and didn’t know what else to do in this position.
“Our mother is sick and she needs to meet Kia. She wants to apologize to her for what happened and hopes they can meet again and discuss this.” Daniel had no other choice but to tell Misha about this. “If you can’t bring them both together, can you convey this to Kia? At least, she should know that our mother is not in a good condition.”
Misha was silent for a moment with his back facing Daniel, but then he walked away and left the room directly. He didn’t answer whether he would tell Kia about their mother’s condition or not and Daniel couldn’t confirm anything either.

“You’ll be going to school soon, so why don’t we go shopping and buy your school supplies?” said Candice when she invited Mika to go to the biggest shopping center in this city. They were only accompanied by two bodyguards, while they left the babysitters behind.
Mika looked at her grandma with her big eyes and asked, “I want a bag in the shape of a rabbit,” she said.

“You really like rabbits, don’t you?” Candice said, realizing that her granddaughter was so crazy about these small and fluffy animals.
“Bunnies are very cute and soft, and also gentle,” said Mika while looking at the street. She really liked to observe her surroundings.
“Mika is very smart, isn’t she?” Candice said proudly and kissed the little girl’s cheek who was starting to look chubby because she started eating regularly and this made her very happy.
The trip to the shopping center was very short, even though the road was a little jammed, because Mika sang songs taught by Kia and Candice was happy to sing along with her.
And when they arrived, Candice immediately asked Mika to go look for the rabbit-shaped bag that she liked.
But, of course, they couldn’t easily find a model with these specifications, so Candice finally invited Mika to her favorite boutique.
“Oh, who is this small and cute girl?” asked the owner of the boutique, Monica, looking so happy when she saw Mika and Candice.
Of course, since this was Mrs. Tordoff who came, she was the one who served her personally.
“She’s my granddaughter,” Candice answered in a soft voice as she looked at Mika who was pressing her body against hers, holding her hand tightly.
It could be seen that this little girl couldn’t get along with strangers she had never met before. She would shrink herself and take cover behind the body of an adult who she thought would provide a sense of security for her.
“Oh, is this the daughter of Mr. Misha Tordoff? But, I didn’t know that…” Monica immediately stopped her words and didn’t continue her sentence when she got a meaningful look from Candice.
This wasn’t a topic she should be able to casually talk about and she had to be careful in saying things like this, especially in the presence of a prominent family like the Tordoff family.
“Oh, sorry, I seem to have crossed the line,” said Monica, quickly reading the situation. She couldn’t afford to anger someone like Candice.
“I’ve been looking around, but can’t find a bag shaped like a rabbit, so I want you to make one,” said Candice with a sweet smile on her lips. It could be seen clearly that she was in a very good mood at the moment and this made Monica follow in her footsteps.
“Oh, of course it’s not a big deal, come here, tell me what kind of rabbit you want, sweet girl,” Monica said gently to Mika.
“I want a white rabbit.”
“You really like white, don’t you?”
“My mom likes white,” answered Mika. “Mika likes what mama likes.”
Hearing this, Candice understood how deep the bond between Mika and Kia was and how much this little girl depended on her mother and meanwhile, Kia had to take care of this little girl all alone.
But, even so, she managed to raise Mika well, despite what happened to herself.
“Okay then, I will make the design and you will help me, how about it? Do you like drawing?”
“Mika likes to draw,” Mika said cheerfully and now she didn’t feel too shy anymore around Monica as she took out her drawing book from the backpack she was carrying. “Mika drew rabbits,” she said happily while showing off her drawings proudly.
“Wow! You are very great,” said Monica.
And after that, Monica started designing the bunny bag that Mika wanted while Candice chose clothes for her granddaughter. However, she soon became confused in the face of endless options. So she bought everything that looked suitable for Mika.
Meanwhile, the little girl was laughing while being chatted by Monica, letting Candice buy more clothes.
“Just send them all straight to the Tordoff residence,” Candice said when they were done.
And after three hours of being there, it was time for lunch.
“What do you want to eat, Mika?” asked Candice, holding her small hand. Mika was very docile and very easy to look after. She didn’t throw tantrums when she didn’t get what she wanted. Kia had done an excellent job as a single mother.
“Mika wants to eat meat,” Mika answered excitedly. She looked around and pointed at a restaurant that served steak with a tempting promotional image. “Can I eat that?” asked Mika with a look full of doubt, she seemed to have prepared to be rejected.
“Of course you can eat it there,” Candice replied with a smile.
“Wow! I promise I won’t have too many chocolates after this!” Mika exclaimed cheerfully.
Apart from eating meat, which reminded Candice very much of Misha, this little girl also really liked eating chocolate.
“Of course you can eat chocolate too,” Candice said without thinking too much, but Mika just stared at her in confusion.
“But, grandma’s money will run out after we eat this meat…”
“Grandmother’s money will run out?” Candice looked at Mika with a confused look, while Mika did the same thing.
“Mom always says that if Mika eats meat like that, Mika can’t eat chocolate or buy toys for a month, because mom won’t have money,” Mika said innocently.
She really liked meat, so Kia’s words were recorded in her memory very well.
Meanwhile, Candice felt her world collapse when she heard that. She knew that Kia was living in economic hardship, but she didn’t know that they were living in such hardship.
