Chapter 667 THREE YEARS OLD
"Say it again, you have a child?" Jayden repeated the words that made him unable to believe what he had just heard.Jayden and Apple looked at Misha with serious faces, because as they expected, this was a serious matter. What they didn't expect was that this would involve a small child.
On the other hand, this time, Misha tilted his head and looked Jayden straight into his eyes while saying very seriously. His eyes were so focused on Jayden that his cousin felt his heartbeat stutter. He felt that Misha would hit him the next second.
Fortunately, he did not. He just repeated the words he had said earlier.
"I have a daughter," Misha said with an unreadable expression on his face. He then glanced at Apple who was clearly as surprised as Jayden before leaning back against the sofa again and closed his eyes, letting them absorb the news.
Jayden opened his mouth and closed it back, not knowing what to say, while Apple too fell silent, saying nothing. She was afraid to say the wrong thing and make things worse.
At least, Jayden knew Misha better than she did.
It was just that this silence was so heavy and Apple felt a little stupid for turning off the television earlier. Because now, the atmosphere was a little awkward, as no one was talking.
"I want some more calamari," Misha said, still closing his eyes. Apple leaned in to comply, however, Jayden already reached for the last box of calamari and stuffed a piece of calamari into Misha's mouth before Apple could do it.
"Hey, I don't know how to respond to this news and I don't know if I should congratulate you or not," Jayden said honestly, continuing to stuff the calamari into Misha's mouth every time he stopped chewing.

Misha then opened his eyes and glanced at Apple which made her back away, because Misha's gaze was so sharp. Jayden then leaned forward to block his cousin's gaze on Apple.
Misha didn't mean to scare Apple or act mean to her. He was just so flustered that he couldn't control his facial expressions or how he looked at someone.
"My daughter is already three years old," said Misha quite calmly.
Three years?!
Jayden and Apple again widened their eyes when they heard that confession. The two of them looked at each other and were at a loss for words in response to this news.
And the thick silence came back between them again.
"Are you sure it's your daughter? Have you done a DNA check?" Jayden asked, he just wanted to make sure of this. He could imagine the reaction of Lexus and his wife if they found out that they had a grandchild. One could even say they would both have the same reaction as his mother.
But, before telling something as important as this, of course they had to make sure of thngs first. This was a serious problem.
"Not yet," replied Misha.
"So you were just told it was yours without getting any evidence?" Jayden asked again.
Misha then opened his eyes and looked at Jayden, while Apple peeked over his shoulder.
"She didn't want me to do a DNA check nor did she tell me it was my child."
And that answer made Jayden and Apple frown in confusion. "Then how did you know it was yours?" asked Apple curiously.
Because from what Misha said, this sounded very strange.
"Because she looks a lot like me," Misha said with a deep breath.
"You can't say a child is your child just because she looks like you," Jayden said exasperatedly. He wanted to hit Misha in the head, to wake him up, but there was no way he could do that now.
On the other hand, Misha then reached into his pants' pocket and took his cellphone out. He opened the photo gallery and showed a photo of a three year old little girl on his cellphone.
He gave the phone to Jayden and Apple for them to look at and only then did they both realize what Misha meant.
"Impossible…" Jayden muttered under his breath, even Apple was thinking the same thing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe resemblance between the two of them is undeniable. This little girl really had a very similar face to Misha, even the eyes, nose, mouth, face shape, all very similar to Misha.
This little girl was like a photo of Misha as a child, only in a female version.
Of course, it was Jayden who was more surprised because he had seen many photos of his cousin as a child and could be ninety percent certain that this little girl was his niece.
Damn. The Tordoff's gen was not a joke.
How could this girl be so similar to Misha? If he had a little girl, would she also look like himself like this?
"She looks a lot like you…" Jayden acknowledged this, then shook his head. "If your DNA test results don't match, then I will be very confused."
Misha sighed.
"Then what happened? You don't want this little girl?" Jayden asked again, he then narrowed his eyes and growled at his cousin. "Don't tell me you're going to be a deadbeat father to her, I'm really going to beat you up right now."
Misha glanced at Jayden with tired eyes. "You think my problem is that easy?" he asked.
"So what? You don't want to recognize this little girl?" Jayden asked again. He was annoyed when Misha spoke only in bits and pieces like this and didn't finish his sentence clearly.
"Of course, I admit that it's my child, I insist that it's my child, even though the woman is very insistent that I'm not her father," Misha said annoyed. "My daughter cries when I carry her."
