Chapter 1431 Advice And Persuasion
In the end, Ichika obediently followed Solomon back.
Solomon didn’t think much about it, assuming that she was overwhelmed for the time being when such a matter
happened and would be fine after some time.
Hence, besides accompanying her in the hospital room in the following two days, he spent the rest of the time
dealing with his company affairs.
Two days later, Sasha and the others had to leave since Christmas was just around the corner.
“Solomon, stay and take care of Ichika here for a few days. Bring her back with you before Christmas, and we’ll
have dinner together,” Rufus urged.
That was a remark that induced much jubilance and anticipation.
“Sure,” Solomon agreed right away.
Ah, I’ve never spent Christmas with so many people in all my years!
Subsequently, Sabrina said that she would be holding the fort at the company until he returned.
The only aberration was with Sasha and Sebastian. When the former saw such a buoyant atmosphere, she couldn’t
resist asking the man beside her, “Sebby, shouldn’t we apprise him about the matter?”
Sebastian, however, was much more sensible.

things have to be handled by the people involved. It’s just like us back then. If my father hadn’t interfered, would we
have wasted so much time with endless detours?”
He brought up their past all of a sudden.
Hearing that, Sasha was immediately frozen to the spot.
He’s right. Back then, it was a misunderstanding that could’ve been easily resolved, but because of Frederick’s
presumptuous meddling in our affairs, we were tortured and were apart for five whole years.
She ended up dismissing the idea of poking her nose into their business, but she still went to see Ichika before she
left.
“Ichika?”
The hospital room was exceedingly quiet, more so than ever since everyone was busy bidding Solomon farewell.
Sitting on the hospital bed and spacing out while gazing out the window, Ichika instantly turned around when she
heard the voice. “Sha? Why are you here?”
She was rather surprised, and at the same time, a tad panicked.
Why would she be so panicked for no reason?
Upon seeing that, Sasha was all the more convinced about her husband’s analysis of the matter.
“Well, I’m here to visit you. We’re going back since it’s going to be Christmas soon. Ichika, we’ll all be waiting for
you in Avenport, so get well quickly and come back with Solomon, okay?” she urged gently, sitting on the edge of
her bed and grasping both her hands.
Ichika’s head snapped up at once.
“Sha, d-do you all not hate me?”
“Hate?” A trace of bemusement showed on Sasha’s face. “Why would we hate you? Why would you say that?”
“I-I…”
Ichika’s eyes abruptly turned red, and she swiftly hung her head. She struggled for a long time before she finally
forced the words out from between her teeth like a kid who had done something wrong.
“I-I was going to kill my sister. Do you all not hate me and feel that I’m repulsive?”
“Of course not!” Sasha promptly denied. “I even think that you did a great job! That sister of yours is vicious and
heartless. Have you forgotten that it was me who set her up with the janitor at the hot spring?”
In a mere second, Ichika jerked her head up. She stared at her cousin, who proclaimed that proudly, at a loss for
words.
“A-Are you serious?”
“Yeah, why? Didn’t you know that? Oh, I thought you knew. Anyway, the entire Hayes family is aware of that. As
that sister of yours set my brother up back then, I was furious and set her up as well.”
Sasha explained everything in detail.

though she was only upholding justice by meting out the punishment.
But in reality, that was indeed what someone like Himari deserved.
Only then was there some reaction on Ichika’s part. For the first time, a glimmer of life shone in her eyes after she
had strangled her sister with her own hands.
It was as though one had been teetering on the edge of the cliff for a long time and had finally grasped a ray of
light.
“Then… did Sebastian not say anything about you doing all that?”
“What did he say?” Sasha pondered for a moment. “Oh yes, he said I should have covered my eyes when I
watched. He also said that I was too depraved and to leave such a thing to him in the future.”
She proceeded to tell Ichika all about her husband’s reaction that day.
Ichika’s round, black eyes widened, and her jaw that had dropped open remained gaping for several seconds.
That was something she had never heard because she never imagined that a man would indulge his wife so much
that he wouldn’t get irate even if she did such a thing and even told her to leave it to him in the future.
In that case, is there actually no need for me to bear such a heavy psychological burden after having strangled my
own sister? And perhaps Solomon will likewise not think that I’m a heinous woman?
