It’s Hard To Control My Naughty Wife!

"You guys never treated me like I'm one of you anyway. I can't even remember the last time I felt that I was also a part of this family, until I felt the love from my new family. Candice treats me like her own daughter. She is always there for me when I accompany Mika who is sick."

"We don't know where Mika is being treated, if we knew where she was being treated, we would have definitely come," Lyle said in a defensive voice. "If you had allowed us to come, we would have definitely come to provide support, but you didn't allow us to meet, you don't even want to see us."

Kia looked at her father intently with a look of disbelief, she should have expected this, but it didn't lessen her pain knowing how ignorant her family could be.

"There was one thing you could do, giving me Alia's medical history, but you didn't." Kia reminded them of this.

"But, you don't want to see us, no matter what we say, you don't want to see us." Daniel then added. "Would you have been willing to meet us if we provided you with her medical history?"

"No." Kia shook her head. "But, at least I know you are not that selfish to prioritize your ego by withholding her medical history, knowing that it could endanger Mika's health."

"You could have lowered your ego by meeting us and getting the medical history but you're being stubborn."

At this point, Kia realized that nothing she could say would change these two people's minds, they would always blame her, no matter what, they would still blame her for what they thought was right.

"It's obvious now, isn't it? I'm not family to you." Kia looked at her father and mother carefully and at that moment Lyle knew that he had gone too far and was too excited and said something very selfish, he realized that.

But, it was too late.

"Kia, don't be like this, we are family," Amber said through her tears. "Your father will also provide the medical history in the end."

"Yeah, in the end…" Kia looked sadly at her father. "But, if Mika's condition had gotten worse at that time and it was too late, what else was the medical history for?"

Yes, that was right, if Mika hadn't survived at that time… No Kia didn't even dare to imagine what would have happened to her.

"Wouldn't it be too late? No matter what you do, nothing will change." Kia then turned her attention to Mika and wiped her lips with a tissue because she ate a bit messy. "I just want to say that I have found a family that accepts me for who I am and loves me, considers me part of their family, even gives the feeling of having a family far more than what I feel from you, if there are still those feelings." Kia then stood up and looked at them all carefully.

"I just wanted to say that you don't need to contact me for anything, not for a funeral, not for a wedding or anything, because I would do the same with you."

"Can't you think about this a bit more?" Lyle also stood up, he seemed to be holding off Kia's departure. "We can start all over again. Doesn't Mika need her family? She needs her grandparents, uncle and aunt."

Kia smiled very sweetly when she heard that. "Father doesn't need to worry too much about it, Mika has already got everything from the Tordoff family. She has grandparents who love her unconditionally as well as cousins. I already said no, that I have found a family that loves us."

"They are not your real family." Daniel tried to interrupt this conversation.

"Even if one day I find myself not part of that family, I don't mind, because I will always have Mika with me, she will be the only family for me if that happens, from the start, we are always together."

Mika then raised her head and grinned at her mother, which made Kia smile.

"Today, I just want to convey this to you: act like the past four years, pretend that I don't exist and I will also continue to act like that."

At that, Kia left from there carrying Mika who looked a little sleepy after eating her fill and enjoying her favorite pudding.

She looked so cute when she yawned, especially when she buried her face in Kia's shoulder.

Even until the end, Mika didn't want to be touched by them, because they were strangers to her, she didn't even look at them for long and just buried her face in Kia's neck.

In the end, Kia left the room and left the four of them alone.

Amber could be heard crying piteously as she watched her daughter and grandchild leave and immediately realized that this would be their last meal together, while Lyle was speechless, he just stood there, petrified, not knowing what else to think.

Daniel and Alia didn't say anything and were busy with their own thoughts.

No one spoke in the room and they did not leave for a long time.

On the other hand, Kia stepped out of the restaurant with a much lighter heart after saying what she wanted to say, whether they regretted it or not was none of her business anymore.

She was done with them and now, she wanted to open a new chapter with Misha.

And unexpectedly, the man she was thinking about had been waiting for her with a bunch of flowers in his hand when she got into the car.

"Uncle Misha!" Mika exclaimed happily when she saw Misha.

"I still feel bitter about that call," Misha grimaced with the way Mika addressed him. He then gave a bigger bouquet of flowers to Kia before handing another one that was slightly smaller to Mika.

Mika looked very happy when she also got the same bouquet of flowers as her mother, only in a smaller size.

Meanwhile, Kia could only laugh when she heard Misha complain about this.

"How about you call me Daddy once?" Misha persuaded her, but Mika shook her head firmly.

"No."

"Why?"

"Mommy will be sad again later."

"I won't be sad anymore," Kia said, she herself had said the same thing many times to Mika, but the little girl seemed to still be traumatized when she saw Kia cry so sadly at that time.

However, it couldn't be denied that at that time, Kia was not in her right mind and she did not think that she would be able to endure this pain.

It was just that all that was past, yet what happened at that time left a very deep impression on Mika's mind, so much so that she refused to call Misha father again.

"No." Mika shook her head even harder and started to turn her full attention to the flowers in her hands. She was very happy to see a bouquet of flowers like this.

In fact, it was also Mika who chose the flower bouquet for Kia at her wedding later.

"We're going to coax her slowly, okay?" Kia rubbed Misha's arm, so he wouldn't be too discouraged by this situation and Misha could only nod in defeat.

"How was your meeting earlier?" asked Misha, he looked at Kia's face carefully, trying to see if she felt upset, sad or angry, but there didn't seem to be anything to worry about.

"Everything is alright."

"Are you feeling any better?"

Kia thought about the question for a moment. "At first, I thought I would feel sad or angry, or disappointed, but after the meeting earlier, I didn't feel anything. I felt like I was leaving strangers I had only known for a few moments. It's as if there is no bond between us anymore," said Kia.

"I'm glad you're not feeling down, because that's all that matters right now."

Kia looked at Misha gently, this man came to see her and left all his workload, because he wanted to make sure that she was okay. This was quite touching for Kia, because he was willing to go the extra mile for her.

"Where are we going?" asked Kia when she saw that they weren't weren't taking the way to the house or back to the company.

"We will continue the vacation that was postponed at that time," said Misha.

Kia's eyes widened. "Are we going to the mountains to go camping again?" To be honest, Kia was not fond of such activities and didn't want to do that anymore.

"No, going to the mountains will take too long, the nearest mountain takes two hours from here and I don't have that long."

"Then where are we going?"

Hearing the conversation between the two of them, Mika became interested and looked at her parents, waiting for an answer from Misha.

"We're going to the beach."

"To the beach?" asked Mika enthusiastically. "Will we see sharks and whales?"

Kia and Misha grimaced when they heard this. "It seems she tends to think about extreme things," Misha commented.

Weren't children of her age more interested in small animals like clown fish or ornamental fish, starfish and the like?

"Mika saw on television that sharks and whales are friends with humans," Mika babbled.

At this point, Misha wanted to know which television shows broadcasted such footage and 'brainwashed' children that sharks and whales weren't wild animals…
