Chapter 1378 Helpless
Solomon stood up abruptly, intending to find Ichika right away.
But right then, someone voiced out in the group.
Sasha: Ichika, let me ask Mr. Anderson if you can come. I need to get his approval since it’s the research laboratory.
Ichika: All right. Thanks, Sha.
Even though Ichika did not receive a confirmation, she was delighted with the answer.
She was eager to see the aurora with her own eyes.
She had only seen it on the internet and it was beautiful.
However, that was not the only reason she wanted to join them. Envious of the merry atmosphere in the group, she
had always wanted to get along well with them.
Just as she put down her phone happily, someone pushed the door open from the outside.
“Darling?”
She stood up immediately, startled by the man who had barged in without knocking on the door.
“What do you think you were doing? Who told you to make such a request?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had turned into an entirely different person.
Solomon stood at the door, his expression utterly stern and his gaze pierced through Ichika’s heart like a cold blade.
Ichika was scared stiff.
She recoiled in fear, and tears started welling up in her eyes.
“Darling, did… did I do wrong? I’m sorry… I just… I just want to see the—”
“Do you think you can say anything you want? Are you aware of your status? What right do you have to request
such a thing from them? Have I been too nice to you recently?”
Solomon flew into a rage all of a sudden.
He looked so fierce that it made Ichika tremble incessantly in fright.
The color drained from Ichika’s face as her mind went blank.
She could no longer hold back her tears.
What does he mean by my status? Do I not deserve to go to the island with them just because I’m a Jetroinian?
Even though we’re married, he still sees me as an outsider. He never treats me as one of them.
With that thought in mind, Ichika started bawling her eyes out.
“What is my status? Am I not your wife? Why can’t I make that request? Akiyama, you never wanted me to be part
of your community. You’re worried that I will be a burden to Sha, aren’t you?”
“What are you talking about?”
A terrifying look contorted Solomon’s face.
Ichika held her tongue. She bit her lip tightly as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Solomon cut her a cold glare and stomped out of the room.
With that, silence was restored in the room.
Staring at the closed door, Ichika jumped into her bed and cried out loud in agony.
Why is he treating me like this? I’ve been doing my best. I understand he still has Sha in his heart. But why can’t he
just look at me? Is he not going to accept me forever?
Ichika hid under her blanket and could not stop crying. At that moment, Akiko’s previous words echoed in her mind.
It was the first time she had felt so helpless in life.
In fact, she was only twenty years old, and it was indeed outstanding of her to have come this far.
Meanwhile, Solomon returned to the study room.
He sat down in front of his table and stared right at the computer screen. He froze for a long while, not knowing
what to do.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAll he knew was that his heart was filled with frustration, and he could not calm down.
What did I say to her?
He could not even recall what he had just said as rage had completely replaced his rationality.
He sat dumfounded in his seat for a long time.
Eventually, he turned off his computer and went back to the bedroom.
The following day when he woke up, he glanced at the clock and noticed it was already eight.
Why did no one come to wake me up?
He was momentarily stunned. He jumped down from his bed and walked into the bathroom.
Strangely, there was no one in the bathroom. Usually, Ichika would wake him up gently at this hour of the day,
She would even get his toothbrush and towel ready in the bathroom.
Yet, none of that happened today.
His heart skipped a beat as he stared at the empty bathroom.
“Mr. Solomon, are you up? Breakfast is ready.”
Just then, Wendy’s voice came from outside.
