Chapter 1384 Not Worth It
That night, the boat headed straight to the island. Solomon did not leave his cabin at all while Ichika kept guard outside. Sabrina had asked her to join her at her cabin as it was very windy out there, but she refused to do so.
She was that silly.
When Solomon opened the cabin door in the morning, he saw Ichika curled up on the floor. She was about to fall asleep.
Even though she was dressed in a windbreaker, she was so cold that her face had turned black and her body had contorted into a fetal position.
Solomon froze on the spot.
As the sun had not risen yet, there was merely a white light that gleamed across the surface of the sea. Accompanying it was a hazy fog that shrouded his vision.
His eyes were fixated on Ichika who was enveloped by the fog.
Thud!
In the end, she woke up with a jolt because her head had accidentally hit the door as she fell asleep.
“Darling, y-you’re awake?”
She opened her eyes.
Her vision was still blurry. Hence, she could not react at the sight of Solomon’s feet.
The frosty sea breeze brought a shudder down her spine. It was only then that she looked at his feet clearly. Instantly, a hint of joy appeared on her ashen face.
She looked up at Solomon.
After what seemed like an eternity, Solomon finally crouched down in front of her.
“Is it worth it? You saw what happened yesterday. I don’t love you at all and you know very well that I am seriously ill. I will probably not recover in this lifetime. Is it worth it for you to keep sticking around?”
His voice sounded chilly and dead at the same time, like the breeze that was blowing across the sea at that very moment.
Ichika’s eyes suddenly widened. In no time at all, she stood up in front of him and said earnestly, “It is worth it. Darling, you are not ill. It is just that you don’t have anyone by your side. From now onward, I will always be there for you.”
