The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress

When Elios went to see his wife on the terrace, the beautiful woman was engrossed in staring at the moon. He silently hugged Aleksis' waist from behind.

"What are you thinking about?" he whispered in her ear.

His wife turned to him and smiled sweetly. "I'm thinking about how much I'm grateful for our lives now."

"Hmm ... me too." Elios kissed his wife's cheek then pulled the woman to sit on his lap.

"Fatherhood suits you very well," Aleksis commented, turning to her husband. The beautiful woman's face seemed to glow with happiness.

"Hmm ... I guess I do like children," Elios commented. "You forgot I have four foster children."

"Ah, that's right." Aleksis nodded. She remembered that her husband ruled the underworld for decades as an assassin. He traveled all over the world and lived a lonely life for a long time.

Decades ago, he saved four children on his travels who then followed him everywhere and became his foster children. He cared for them and raised them to become assassins like himself. They all grew into cold-blooded killers who were very loyal to him.

"Mischa was my first foster child. I saved him in Ukraine when he was beaten to a pulp by his parents who were drug addicts. He begged me to let him come with me because he didn't have anyone else in this world," Elios said. His eyes seemed filled with nostalgia. "After that, I met Takeshi in Japan. He almost died when his entire family was massacred by the yakuza. He came with me and when he grew up he avenged his family's death all by himself. I am so proud of them."

Aleksis remembered that in the past when she and Elios Linden started dating, Takeshi and Mischa were assigned to be her bodyguards and they protected her from bad people. She was very fond of the two young men.

"I remember the first time I met Mischa, I thought he was a gigolo ... His outfits were very flamboyant.. hahaha..." Aleksis commented with a laugh. "He was wearing a pink shirt with some lace and the buttons were unfastened all the way down to his chest. He also had that dreamcatcher pendant hanging around his neck, making him look like womanizer 100 percent. He was so handsome with his golden locks that I was instantly reminded of the little Lord Fauntleroy ... He was really good looking, but very flamboyant at the same time."

Elios nodded. "The boy has changed now. He only wears all things black. That makes him look more serious and mature, which is important since he is leading a big company, but sometimes I actually miss his silly flamboyant self."

Aleksis laughed. "Me too. Ahh ... he is very loyal to you. When we thought you died, he was one of the few people that was hit the hardest. He was mourning for years by wearing black ... and that eventually became a habit and he now always wears black."

Elios nodded. "He is indeed very loyal."

Since Elios retired from his business and focused his attention on his family, his company group, RMI was handed over to his four foster children so that they would take care of it for him.

Mischa Rhionen, the flamboyant son became the leader RMI Europe and Africa, the quiet Takeshi Rhionen led RMI Southeast Asia and Oceania, the ruthless Rosalien Rhionen, the only foster daughter of Elios to lead RMI Asia, and Kai Rhionen to lead RMI North and South America.

They have left their old profession as assassins and were taking care of RMI together because they were loyal to Elios. Now, RMI was the largest technology company in the world whose business includes all automation technologies that humans use in households and offices, from the moment they woke up until the time they went back to sleep.

Later, after Altair and Vega were mature, they would inherit RMI from their father and lead the four RMI branches if they wished. However, until then, their father would let them live their lives as ordinary students and give RMI to his four foster children.

"Speaking of Mischa, he told me he would come by in two days," Elios said suddenly. "I think he plans to propose to his girlfriend and wants some advice."

"Is that so?" Aleksis instantly perked up.

She knew Mischa had been in a relationship with a girl named Lisa for eight years and they had been living together for six years. Was Mischa finally ready to tie the knot?

Ahh .... Aleksis was very happy to hear such good news!
