The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)
Chapter 1311

Chapter 1311 Someone Like Her

However, it wasn't Sabrina whom she saw after opening the door. Instead, it was the secretarywhom 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 toIchika, who was a noble in their country.

Ichika was rather disappointed to see the woman. However, due to her good upbringing, sheconcealed 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 thatyou'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 insteadroused Akiko's anger.

As rage and jealousy overtook the woman, she stared at Ichika and replied without thinking, “He'squite 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 inhis heart. That's why he chose not to date all this while. The reason he brought you here is entirelyout 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. Shehad 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'salready history anyway. Akiko, I think you should leave now. I'm going to Mr. Akiyama's house fordinner 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 shehad 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 madethat request explicitly.

As such, she had no choice but to go off reluctantly.

Right after Akiko left, Ichika returned to her room and started searching for the prettiest dress shehad.

Meanwhile, Sabrina was at home busy instructing the housemaids from the Hayes Residence, whowere helping out with dinner preparations.

She was jotting down the recipes of some of Jetroina’s famous dishes according to her ownexperiences, all while making calls to various hotels under Hayes Corporation, requesting for thefreshest ingredients to be delivered over.

Ring... Ring, Ring...

"Hello?"

“Little lan, is that you? It's Mommy. What are you guys doing? Why did you pick up Aunt Sabrina’sphone?”

lan had helped to answer the call after noticing how busy his aunt was and was pleasantly surprisedto hear his mother's voice.

“Mommy, Aunt Sabrina is busy giving out orders to everyone helping with dinner preparations.Another aunt is coming over for dinner later,” lan replied after taking a glance at Sabrina, who wasextremely occupied.

Another aunt?

Sasha, who was in Jetroina and had just been released, was momentarily stunned when she heardthat.

Who's the other aunt?

With a confused expression, she looked at the man next to her, who was helping her to change intoa new hospital gown.

“I guess he's referring to the daughter of the Minamoto family. She was seen hanging out withSabrina in Avenport, and it was reported in the news today. Almost everyone knows about it now.”"What?" Sasha's eyes lit up at once after hearing that, and she could barely contain her excitement.“Is that true? That's great! Seems like Solomon is pretty serious about that girl. If not, why would heask Sab to bring her around? I guess wedding bells will be ringing pretty soon.”

Sabrina had already started imagining Solomon's wedding and couldn't stop smiling, whileSebastian merely looked at her.

The truth was, he had not been very pleased when he first saw the news. That was because when hesaw Ichika's picture, he realized that the girl, who had just stepped into adulthood, resembled Sashawhen she was eighteen, the age when she married him.

Sebastian suspected that that could be the reason Solomon had agreed to bring that Jetroinan girlback to Avenport with him.

Naturally, he felt a flicker of irritation at that.

However, after seeing how pleased Sasha was, his anger completely dissipated at once.

Sebastian realized that he had no reason to be upset.

Solomon did not love Sasha any less than he did. However, he had chosen to back out and givethem his blessings. Not only that, but he had also been a great help to them.

It made sense that he would want to date someone who reminded him of Sasha, and there wasnothing wrong with that.
