Chapter 1372 Greedy

Her statement left Wendy and the rest at a loss.

Nevertheless, Wendy could not refute because the Minamotos were their distinguished guests. “Allright,” Wendy agreed with a smile. “Please excuse me. I'll go ahead and prepare the rooms rightnow.”

By the time Solomon and Ichika finished moving the sake, the arrangements had been fixed.

How could Himari be so discourteous? This isn't even her home. Even if she’s a guest, it doesn'texcuse her lack of propriety.

When Ichika learned of this news, she fumed in anger. Ichika spent the rest of dinner with a petulantpout on her face.

Immediately, Solomon noticed Ichika’s displeasure. Once dinner ended, he made his way to her.With a low voice, he said to her, “Don’t worry about it. Sasha and the rest will not mind. Later, I'llhead home and bring you your personal belongings.”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Ichika looked up. “D-Darling, you'll be home alone. Will that be all right?” Ichikaasked hesitantly.

Clearly, everything happened because of her. But judging from Ichika’s tone, she had no intentionsof staying here. Instead, she wanted to return home and keep her husband company.

Ichika’s question left Solomon speechless. He lowered his head and glanced at her worried gaze.Wordlessly, Solomon heaved out a heavy sigh before he spun on his heel and left.

Meanwhile, Wendy was changing the bedsheets of the guestroom upstairs.

Unlike Hillside Villa, Frontier Bay had plenty of rooms to accommodate several guests.

Despite its immense size, Wendy chose the second floor as the Minamotos' temporary residence.The third floor was reserved solely for Sebastian and his family.

Suddenly, Wendy heard someone making their way upstairs.

"Wow! I want to stay on the third floor. Mom, look at the gorgeous view up here. There's even abalcony and swimming pool. We can go swimming tomorrow!”

Following the joyful voice, Wendy heard the sound of high heels clicking against the wooden flooras the person ran upstairs.

Oh no... In haste, Wendy scurried out of the room to stop the intruder.

“You aren't allowed to go upstairs. That's where Mommy and Daddy live. Hurry up and come backdown! If you don't, they will be very mad if they replace out!”

Before Wendy could open her mouth, a small figure had rushed out of the hanging garden to thefoot of the stairs. There, the little girl placed her hands on her hips and yelled at the intruder on thethird floor.

The little girl was none other than Vivian

Wendy paused when she saw Vivian. At the same time, she couldn't help but smile in amusement.Vivi appeared at the right time.

Himari was roaming around the third floor when she heard the child's voice. Immediately, shestiffened and came to a screeching halt.

Himari quickly changed her approach. “Are you Vivi? Your house is gorgeous. I couldn't help butlook around,” Himari explained as she looked at Vivian.

Despite that, Vivian gave her no mercy.

“That doesn’t mean you can enter the third floor. My daddy has mysophobia. He hates it whensomeone goes to the third floor. He also doesn't like strangers touching Mommy's stuff! He builtthe swimming pool for her. The flowers on the balcony are also Mommy's favorites. You'd bettercome down right now!” Vivian glared at Himari. “If Daddy learns of this, you will have to face theconsequences of your actions!” Vivian said as a final warning.

Vivian had said nothing but the truth. In this villa, the third floor was off-limits to everyone exceptSebastian, Sasha, and their three children. No one else was allowed to enter it as they pleased.

Left with no choice, Himari heeded Vivian's warnings and returned to the second floor.

Her face was flushed with embarrassment.

“Mrs. Minamoto, Ms. Himari, please accept my sincerest apologies. She's still young and naive.Usually, no one ever goes up to the third floor. Hence, Vivi tried to stop Ms. Himari,” Wendy quicklyrushed out of the guestroom and apologized profusely.

“It's all right. Himari shouldn't have wandered into their personal bedrooms.” Mrs. Minamoto wasutterly ashamed by her daughter's rude antics.

Fortunately, no one took Himari's actions to heart. After the incident, Aoi and Himari made their wayto the guestroom, which Wendy prepared for them earlier.

When Himari entered the guestroom, she noticed the room's elaborate design right away. Yet, itcould not hold a candle to the breathtaking designs she had seen on the third floor. The starkcontrasts prompted Himari to seethe in envy.

“This place is much more magnificent than Ichika’s home. Why do they get to marry into suchwealthy families?” Himari complained.

“Weren't you the one who rejected the marriage in the first place?” Aoi snapped in reply.

She was in a foul mood as Himari's rude mannerisms and actions had left her embarrassed.

On the other hand, Himari refused to admit her wrongdoings. Instead, she glared out the windowwith a spiteful look. “I wasn't the one who didn’t want it,” Himari retorted as she looked at thegarden. “Ichika snatched it away from me. Mom, since the Hayeses are rolling in dough, maybe Ishould marry someone from their family too.”

"Y-You!" Aoi was so angry she couldn't muster a proper response.

Coincidentally, someone knocked on their door, interrupting their conversation.

“Mom, I brought your pajamas here. Are you inside?” Ichika called out from the other side of thedoor. She had made a quick trip home to collect Himari and Aoi’s toiletries.

Quickly, Aoi opened the door to let her daughter in.
