Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1311

Chapter 1311 Someone Like Her

However, it wasn’t Sabrina whom she saw after opening the door. Instead, it was the secretary whom Solomon had arranged for her when she first arrived.

“Ms. Minamoto…”

As they were both from Jetroina, out of formality, Akiko had no choice but to bow respectfully to Ichika, who was a noble in their country.

Ichika was rather disappointed to see the woman. However, due to her good upbringing, she concealed her emotions well and smiled politely at Akiko.

“Akiko, what’s the matter?”

“Ms. Minamoto, someone has taken a video of you and Ms. Hayes together in the mall just now, and it was reported in the news. Because of that, there’s a rumor going around now saying that you’re Mr. Akiyama’s fiancée. I’m here to ask you about it.”

“What?”

When Ichika heard that, a blush of embarrassment spread across her cheeks at once.

“I see… What did Mr. Akiyama say about it?”

The fact that not only did the woman not deny it but asked about Solomon’s reaction instead roused Akiko’s anger.

As rage and jealousy overtook the woman, she stared at Ichika and replied without thinking, “He’s quite upset.”

“Huh?”

Upon hearing that, the girl’s eyes widened, and her sweet face went pale.

“H-He’s upset? Why?”

“He doesn’t like people spreading such rumors. Ms. Minamoto, Mr. Akiyama already has someone in his heart. That’s why he chose not to date all this while. The reason he brought you here is entirely out of his respect for Mr. Tsurka.”

Akiko was indeed scheming.

She even told Ichika about what had happened between Solomon and Sasha.

After listening to Akiko’s account, Ichika lowered her head, feeling devastated and heartbroken. She had thought that Solomon brought her back because he had feelings for her.

Wait a minute! Mr. Akiyama is already thirty. Isn’t it normal for him to have dated others?

Besides, even though Akiko said that Mr. Akiyama is upset, I’ve not verified it personally. Moreover, Sabrina told me that it was Mr. Akiyama who asked her to accompany me.

Ichika pondered for a moment and had a new perspective over the situation.

“That’s all right. It’s not a big deal that there were other women Mr. Akiyama liked in the past. It’s already history anyway. Akiko, I think you should leave now. I’m going to Mr. Akiyama’s house for dinner tonight. I’ll talk to him about it then.”

After hearing Ichika’s reply and seeing how mature and understanding the girl was even though she had just stepped into adulthood, Akiko felt like someone had just slapped her in the face.

Although she was marinating in resentment, she knew she had to leave as Ichika had already made that request explicitly.
