It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

"Shall we return to the Tordoff residence?" asked Richard, he looked at Misha through the rear view mirror of the car as they exited the housing estate.

"Yes," Misha replied curtly. He then looked out the window, at the very bright night view, wondering what Alia really wanted to say.

It wasn't at all like his nature to know other people's business, but this time it was different. His curiosity about what was in the girl's mind kept bothering him. Even her unusual reaction made him unable to stop thinking about it.

Especially her eyes...

The look in her eyes still dominated his every thought, even now.

"Richard," Misha called in a low voice.

"Yes?" asked Richard, waiting for orders from Misha. He glanced at his troubled expression from the rearview mirror.

But he didn't speak right away, then after a few minutes he said, "Find out where she is."

Needless to say, who exactly did Misha refer to as 'she'. It was certain that it was Kia.

Richard closed his eyes, he then heaved a sigh of relief. Damn. It took Misha four years to issue the order and overcome his excessive ego and prestige to arrive at giving this order.

He should have done this four years ago when he realized he couldn't get the image of the woman out of his mind.

"Let's go to Jayden's house," Misha said later, before he closed his eyes.

There were three houses in the Tordoff residence and the house owned by Jayden and Misha was about ten minutes apart by car.

With Misha ordering them to go to Jayden's house, that meant he would be staying there for the night.

It seemed like this was a tough one for Misha to deal with alone, so he needed his cousin as a distraction to clear his head.

The same thing Jayden liked to do.

=======================

Amber stood in front of the long table where the photos of her family were there, she looked at the photos one by one and it was true what Mr. The Tordoff said that the Kia photo was hardly there.

Where exactly was the child when they were taking these photos? Why wasn't she in almost every family photo?

How could this happen and how could she only realize it now?

Amber then walked toward the living room and family room, she checked the photos posted in every room one by one and her heart became more and more restless because she didn't find a photo of Kia.

They had photos of Alia when she was a baby until she was a teenager and also photos of Daniel when he had a game and they went to watch the said game.

Daniel was an active child, therefore there were many photos of him doing various activities, while they took Alia's photos with the reason that they wanted to make as many memories as possible with their little daughter.

They were afraid that one day their daughter would leave them and they would not have enough memories to remember her.

But, where was Kia? Why wasn't she in the pictures?

Even after she had looked at every photo in this house, which was a lot because Amber liked to decorate the house with family photos, she could only find one hand full of Kia photos, that included the family photo that required them to take it together, which was now on display in the living room.

The photo was taken on one of Kia's birthdays. At that time, Alia looked very healthy, so they decided to take the photo, because her surgery was scheduled for the next day, so they wanted to make their daughter happy.

In the photo, Kia was already seventeen years old, which was supposed to be her sweet seventeen, but they didn't celebrate because it felt so uncomfortable to celebrate something before Alia's major surgery the next day.

Alia was seven years old while Daniel was nineteen.

Memories of that time still lingered in Amber's mind when Kia cried because they didn't celebrate her birthday or let her go to celebrate it with her friends.

"What did I say then?" murmured Amber while looking at Kia's smiling face with blank eyes in the family photo.

'Don't be selfish, how can you have fun with other people when your sister has an important surgery tomorrow? We have to spend this day as a family.'

That was more or less what she said to Kia.

They didn't celebrate Kia's birthday that time, but they took this family photo. Kia should be happy too, right?

She didn't know… Amber didn't remember when the child laughed, even her smiling face was hard to find in her memory.

"What are you doing here alone?" Lyle asked when he found his wife looking at their family photo.

"I'm just remembering why there's almost no photo of Kia in this house. She is not in almost every photo." Amber rested her head on Lyle's shoulder while her husband stood beside her, staring at their family photo too. "I only realized that when Mr. Tordoff said it."

To be honest, Lyle felt the same way too. He barely had a photo of Kia, even on his cell phone. Why didn't he take a photo of the kid?

"Wouldn't she rather be at home?" said Lyle. "She spends a lot of time at home."

"Oh, you're right. She spends a lot of time at home because I'm in the hospital taking care of Alia," Amber mumbled.

"Yeah, she's filling your task to cook dinner for me and Daniel."

Amber frowned, she almost forgot about it… She didn't remember there was a time like that.

But, since Lyle mentioned it, she remembered what happened at that time now.

Being too busy with Alia, it could be said that Amber spent her days in the hospital and Kia not only made dinner for them, but also took care of the house.

Kia not only cooked but also cleaned the house and even did grocery shopping to prepare meals for them, because Amber would be too tired to do that.
