Chapter 812: I DON’T WANT WITH HER
Mika had never seen Amber before but she remembered Alia, they met recently and her mother got into a trouble because of her. She didn’t like them, so she hid her face in Candice’s chest and hugged her tightly.
Instead of continuing to sit on her own chair, Mika shifted to Candice’s lap completely.
“I don’t need your gratitude, therefore, I don’t need to tell you where Kia is,” Candice said calmly. She didn’t seem to show any emotion when she said that, therefore, it was difficult for Amber to know to what extent Candice had known about the issues between her and Kia.
“I don’t know what kind of story you have heard, but actually what happened wasn’t that bad,” Amber said in a low voice, she ignored Alia who was tugging at her sleeve, trying to stop her from speaking. She was not yet finished.
“Not that bad?” Candice repeated. “I’m not surprised that Kia refuses to meet you, as it seems your family has a habit of trivializing the suffering of others.”
Amber gasped. “No, it’s not like that.”
“And instead of sincerely apologizing and truly admitting your mistakes, you lean toward prioritizing your ego, always looking for justification for what you have done.”
Amber opened her mouth but then she closed it again because she didn’t know what to say as Candice read the situation between her and Kia well.
Maybe Candice would even doubt what Misha said, but since she had found out the truth behind this herself, she knew the outline of Amber’s treatment of Kia.
“You better stop looking for her, because what you guys are doing will only make Kia suffer even more,” said Candice coldly.
If it wasn’t for Misha reminding her not to get involved in this matter and Kia didn’t want a scene or seek revenge against her family, then of course, Candice wouldn’t have spoken so calmly nor would she have tried to ignore these people.
But, since this was Misha’s request, then like it or not, she had to comply.
Although actually Candice wanted to teach a lesson or two to Kia’s mother.
“Ask if there is still a private room? Mika can’t seem to eat in peace here,” said Candice when Amber didn’t know what to say anymore and now she was trying to look at Mika’s face and this made the little girl even more uncomfortable.
This little girl didn’t seem to like crowded surroundings that much.
“Okay, I will ask about that,” said one of the bodyguards and immediately went to carry out her order.
On the other hand, Amber knew that Candice did this because she wanted to kick her out of there and wanted to stop this conversation, but the problem was; she didn’t want to finish the conversation yet because she hadn’t gotten what she wanted.
“Wait a minute,” Amber said as she held Candice’s hand before she walked away. “I don’t know who you are, but you seem to have misunderstood. That little kid is Kia’s kid, which means she is my granddaughter.”
“Yes,” Candice said in a calm tone. “She is your granddaughter as well as mine.”
“No, no,” Amber said, shaking her head. “That is not true. She is my granddaughter alone, not yours.”
Candice frowned, she didn’t understand what Amber wanted to say. “What do you mean?”
“I know that you are Candice Tordoff, Misha Tordoff’s mother,” Amber said. She remembered that she had seen Candice on a news show when she accompanied Lexus Tordoff, her husband, but because she didn’t appear on the screen very often, not many people could immediately recognize her. “I know that Kia is close to Misha Tordoff, your son, but she is not your biological granddaughter.”
Candice was stunned for a moment as she had no idea where this conversation was going while it was quite confusing.
“What do you mean?” Candice stood up and looked annoyed when the middle- aged woman in front of her said that Mika was not her granddaughter.
“She is the child of another man and not the child of Misha Tordoff,” Amber said quietly. She was afraid that this would cause problems for Kia and Misha’s relationship, but she still had to tell the truth.
Candice squinted when she heard the explanation, while Mika still buried her face in her shoulder. Even though she occasionally glanced at Amber, she would immediately hide her face again as soon as she saw the woman glancing at her. It seemed she really didn’t like being stared at like that.
“Kia and Misha have just been in touch recently and the child is the result of Kia’s relationship with another man,” Amber said hesitantly. She again ignored Alia who asked her to stop talking. “I don’t want to cause trouble for Kia and Mr. Tordoff, but I wish you could give my granddaughter to me.”
Amber didn’t know what Candice already knew or what she had learned, but one thing was for sure; Amber didn’t seem to know about Kia and Misha’s relationship before this.
Misha had indeed told her that the relationship between him and Kia only lasted for a very short time, but Candice had no doubts at all that Mika was Misha’s child, because the resemblance between the two of them couldn’t be ignored at all.
“So?” Candice then stood up holding Mika. “What do you want to say?”
Amber was a bit taken aback because of Candice’s indifference to the information she just told her. “She’s not Misha Tordoff’s daughter, you don’t have to look after her. I will take her because I am her grandma.” Amber also stood up, she looked at Mika hopefully.
“You think this little kid is an item you can just ask for?” Candice asked fiercely. “I am a little confused how Kia can live among people like you, who don’t really care about anything else but yourselves.”
Alia lowered her head, she felt ashamed of what Candice had said, but Amber was too blinded by her desire to be able to hug her first grandchild.
And most likely to be able to meet with Kia.
If she could bring her granddaughter home, it was certain that Kia would come by herself to pick up her child. And so, Amber was very adamant about being able to get Mika.
Even though it sounded quite crazy, in her mind, it made perfect sense.
“Therefore, please give my granddaughter to me,” Amber said hopefully. She held out her hands, as if to hold Mika, but this only made Candice frown deeply.
“Mika, do you want to go with her?” Candice asked the little girl who was clinging to her.
Mika then lifted her head, stared at Amber for a moment and then buried her face back into Candice’s shoulder, shaking her head vigorously.
“Don’t want to!” She said firmly.
On the other hand, Amber had been hopeful. She smiled so sweetly when Mika looked at her, but her heart shattered when she heard that her own granddaughter didn’t want to come with her and didn’t even want to see her for long.
“Well, you have heard the girl’s answer yourself, I hope you understand why I can’t give her to you,” said Candice with a triumphant grin tugging at the corners of her lips. She was completely satisfied with Mika’s answer.
Indeed, her granddaughter is the best, she knows how to judge someone.
Candice felt like she wanted to hum as she walked past Amber, but of course she didn’t, because that was too childish.
Call her heartless, but as soon as she walked past Amber who looked really hit by Mika’s short answer, she wanted to laugh, so she immediately left there.
“Smart girl,” Candice said to Mika once they were in the comfort of the private room she asked for, now nothing could disturb them both.
Mika raised her head and looked at Candice with her big, round eyes. “Mika wants to be with grandma, Mika doesn’t want to go with them.”
“Of course,” Candice said cheerfully. “No one will take Mika from grandma. Come on, now you have to eat a lot so you can grow up faster, okay?”
Mika nodded and started to eat the steak in front of her which Candice had cut into small pieces. Once the juicy meat melted in her mouth, she seemed to forget about the unpleasant moment from earlier.
=====================
“Don’t be loud, Mika is sleeping now,” Candice said when Misha called her and asked where she had taken Mika.
Today, Misha was not in a good mood because he met Daniel. He wanted to go home early so he could meet Mika and have dinner together before he could read a story book to her before going to bed.
But, who would have thought that his daughter had been taken away by his mother.
“We will be there in ten minutes,” Candice said impatiently. She stroked Mika’s soft cheek and smiled happily remembering today’s events. “Okay, I will disconnect the call.”
Candice didn’t wait for as much as a response from Misha and immediately hung up on him.
And true to what she said, ten minutes later, they arrived at home, where Misha was waiting in casual clothes. He seemed impatient, because the first thing he did was hold Mika in his arms instead of greeting his mother.
“This child… you are ignoring your own mother now?” Candice grumbled when she saw Misha carrying Mika into the house.
Hearing this, Misha just nodded toward his mother in acknowledgment, but after that he just walked away.
