The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) novel Chapter 1375

Chapter 1375 Making Her Pay

Ichika’s steps faltered when she saw Solomon exiting the car. As much as she wanted to go over to him, she was suddenly overwhelmed with uncertainty and nervousness.

By then, the day was already breaking. Under the dawn’s light, Solomon could see his wife standing at the door with red-rimmed eyes and a swollen face. The urge to rush to him was clear in her expression, but for some reason, she was holding herself back. Instead, she only stood rooted to the spot, wringing her hands together and looking like a scared animal.

Sighing, Solomon walked over. “Does it hurt?”

“No…” Ichika murmured. Despite her words, fresh tears quickly gathered in her eyes at his display of concern. Unable to help herself, she blinked, and the tears began to fall.

It was a pitiful sight that unexpectedly made Solomon’s heart ache. He had never felt that way toward anyone, and yet, at this very moment, he was willing to do anything to stop the girl’s tears.

He sighed again inwardly. What a silly girl. There’s no way that face of hers doesn’t hurt. She doesn’t have to hold anything back in front of me.

In the end, however, he said nothing.

Wendy approached him with a concerned look. “Mr. Solomon, please don’t blame Ms. Minamoto. She’s still young. Not to mention that her sister provoked her…”

Solomon hummed in acknowledgment before leading Ichika to the car and driving back home.

Once they were back, Ichika was pleasantly surprised to see that her husband was not reproachful toward her as she had expected. Rather, he treated her even better than usual. Not only did he run her a bath, but he also applied some cream on her face to ease the swelling. He even waited until she had fallen asleep before leaving her side.

Touched by his gestures, Ichika was put at ease, and her apprehension had finally dissipated.

After making sure that his wife was asleep, Solomon went to his own bedroom and sent a text: Get rid of Giichi Minamoto’s eldest daughter.

His man in Jetroina gaped at the message. Isn’t Giichi Minamoto his father-in-law? Why would he want to get rid of his sister-in-law?

Another text from his boss soon followed: If I remember correctly, there’s a Nogita family in Terrandya. See to it that she marries into that family.

The man’s eyes widened in shock at the latest instruction.

The Nogita family used to be prestigious, but it had been steadily on the decline over the years, to the point where even the ordinary local folks would think twice about marrying into such a family.
