The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress

Who was this man? Tatiana was astonished. She stared at Altair who was sitting next to the man and then turned to look at the man... over and over again.

Finally, Tatiana realized that the two people had very similar appearances. They had the same hair color, and even their faces appeared to have the same perfect symmetry lines. In a few years, Altair would surely look like the man's spitting image.

Gosh ... was this ...?

Was this the famous Elios Linden?

Was this really Altair and Vega's real father?

Suddenly Tatiana's chest felt heavy. The shock she felt was so great that she staggered. Fortunately, the two bodyguards who had escorted her swiftly held the girl's body.

"Tatia ... Are you all right?" asked Altair, who immediately got up to approach his friend. "I want you to meet my father."

In that room, there were only Elios and Altair. They deliberately asked other family members to leave the living room. They didn't want Tatiana to feel shocked if she saw the Schneider-Medici family members, who all looked very young. They knew she would be wondering about why they don't age.

"G-good morning, Vega and Altair's father ..." Tatiana murmured in an unclear voice.

Elios gave Tatiana a sharp look and pointed at the chair opposite him. "Please sit down. You can call me Mr. Linden."

"Oh ... all right. I'm sitting down..." The girl sat awkwardly in the chair Alaric pointed.

She looked confused and scared. Elios' appearance and aura were quite intimidating.

Tatiana managed to hold back herself from crying because Altair was there. She was also very worried about Vega. She wanted to help as much as possible to find her friend.

"My son said you filmed Vega a lot while in Paris and in Bordeaux. Can we borrow all your video equipment?" Elios asked without further ado. Tatiana was trembling in fear at his cold voice.

She did not understand how Vega could have a father like this. Very scary. Besides ... this person looked so young ... How old was he when he got married and had his first children? He must be a teenager back then ... thought Tatiana in confusion.

She preferred Mr. Nicolae Medici, who was friendly and fun. Ahh .. maybe Vega and Altair really preferred Nicolae too. That's why they chose to live with him, not with their biological father.

Seeing Tatiana remain silent, Elios became impatient. "You won't let us check all your videos? I'll pay you handsomely."

"Eh? What? Eh ... Sir... that's not what I meant. I'm sorry, Mr. Linden. I'm just confused. I didn't mean to object..." Tatiana, who was shocked, immediately placed her backpack on the table and hurriedly spilled its contents. She looked very pale. Her voice stammered. "I brought everything ... P-please take them. Don't give me a payment. I don't want anything in return. I just want Vega to be found ..."

Altair immediately moved to the sofa where Tatiana sat and touched her shoulder.

"Don't be scared. We don't mean any harm. My father just wants to find Vega. Here, let me help get your camera out."

Tatiana looked at Altair with a thankful look. She then nodded and wiped away her tears. She was indeed afraid of Elios. Although the man was very handsome and impressive, there was something about him that scared Tatiana out of her wits.

Maybe on ordinary days, Elios could act friendly, but today he was furious because his daughter was kidnapped. A murderous aura was emanating from his body. Even though he wasn't rude to Tatiana, the girl was still horrified and intimidated.

Altair took the items from Tatiana's bag and moved them to a tray. He wanted to take them to the study to immediately transfer the contents of the recording to the computer. Later, he would help Nicolae study their contents and look for clues about the criminals who kidnapped Vega.

Before he could move to the study, suddenly there was a knock on the door. The staff who were always ready to wait in the corner of the room immediately opened the door. Nicolae entered with Mischa who was about to faint in his arms, followed by Marion.

Their faces looked turbid and tired. Elios knew something horrible had happened in Provins. He immediately got up and took over Mischa from his brother.

"Let me take care of Mischa. You, please look for information from this child. She is Vega's best friend and took many videos during their trip," he said firmly.

Nicolae nodded. He turned to Tatiana and immediately recognized the girl. His tired face was instantly decorated with a friendly smile, which made Tatiana's fearful heart calmer.

"Hello, Tatia ... thank you for coming here," Nicolae said.

Tatiana was relieved to see the arrival of someone she knew in the room besides Altair. Especially because Nicolae had always been friendly to her. Slowly, the awkwardness and fear that had been stifling her chest disappeared, and the girl began to look calm.

"Good morning, Mr. Medici," Tatiana greeted Nicolae back.

She was still amazed at how similar Nicolae and Elios were. They only differed in face and hair color, but their stature looked very much like siblings.

Ahh .. wait a minute, were they really brothers? But, if that's the case, why did they have different last names?

Ahh ... all of this was really confusing.
