Chapter 1413 Suffer The Consequences
As for Ian, he declared his stand. âMe too, Daddy. I want to go too.â
Sebastian nodded in satisfaction. âAll right, then. Letâs enjoy ourselves there first. After the New Year,
you can then decide if you still want to go to the research institute or not. I wonât force you in any way.â
âAll right.â
After feeling stressed over the last few days, Ian began to smile happily.
After watching her son leave, Sasha stared blankly at Sebastian.
âAre you letting him make his own decision?â
âMmm-hmm. Itâs his affair after all.â
âButâ¦â
Sasha hesitated.
Based on her observation over the last few days, she believed Ian would decide not to go if it was up to
him.
Unexpectedly, Sebastian, who was previously worried, seemed confident after bringing up the matter
about the hot spring.
âDonât worry. He will go.â
With that, everyone decided on the itinerary.
Meanwhile, in Jetroina, the Minamoto family wasnât happy when they heard the news.
Giichi Minamoto, Ichikaâs dad, remarked, âIchika wants to bring Akiyama back? Itâs one thing if she
comes, but why does she want to bring him along? Does he think that we have forgiven him?â
His expression darkened at the mere mention of his eldest daughterâs affairs.
It appeared he knew that Solomon was the mastermind behind the scenes.
When Aoi heard it, her face turned pale.
This time, she had agreed to help Ichika persuade Giichi, as she didnât want Ichika to feel sad.
However, if her husband didnât agree, she would be in a tight spot.
âGiichi, all Mr. Akiyama did was to stand up for Ichika. He, too, couldnât tolerate Himariâs behavior. Can
you forgive him on Ichikaâs account?â
âIchika?â
The moment he heard her name, his anger intensified.
âShe is the one that caused all of this. Now that she is married, she enjoys a good life over there and
has no more problems with each other. But now, why is she coming back? Is she here to witness how
weâre humiliated?â
âNo, no.â
Aoi didnât know what else to say.
Luckily, Ichikaâs grandfather was present. When he saw his son and daughter-in-law arguing, he came
over to calm them down.
âEnough. Since your son-in-law is coming over, we should still welcome him. Considering that his entire
family is paying us a visit, youâd better not disgrace me.â
After being admonished, Giichi had no choice but to agree.
Soon, the news of Ichika planning to take the Hayes family to the hot spring spread to the Nogita
family. When Himari heard about it, she was infuriated.
âWhatâs the meaning of this? After doing this to me, how can they enjoy such a welcome? What is Dad
even thinking?â
She was so angry that she even criticized her father.
However, it was understandable for her to feel that way.
Ever since she was married into the Nogita family, she wasnât allowed to return home with her
husband, let alone be welcomed with such fanfare.
After all, she was considered a disgrace to her family.
But now, the Hayeses are going to enjoy the royal hot springs?
Himari raged at the thought.
âWhat are you angry about? If youâre upset, you should take me home with you. After all, Iâm a son-in-
law of the Minamoto family too. Why canât I go?â
âYou? Are you even worthy?â Himari scowled the moment she heard his words.
Itachiâs gaze darkened in response.
âIâll be honest. You, Itachi Nogita, are nothing but an undeserving toad. If I hadnât fallen into that manâs
trap, you would never have had the chance to marry me.â
âWhat did you say? Me? An undeserving toad?â
âIsnât that the case? Why donât you look at yourself in the mirror and reflect on what you have
achieved? Do you even think youâre worthy of me?â
Portraying herself as a lady from a noble family, Himari pointed at her husband in a condescending and
humiliating manner.
Just as she spoke, Itachi pounced on her all of a sudden.
âAh! Itachi, what are you doing? Let go of me!â
âLet go of you? Why should I release you when youâre my wife? Didnât you accuse me of not being
worthy? Fine, Iâll show you right now how worthy I can be!â
The next moment, the enraged Itachi tore all of Himariâs clothes off and pinned her down below his
body.
âArgh!â
A piercing shriek echoed through the dilapidated house.
The screams continued from the afternoon until the sun had set. It wasnât until Itachi was drained to the
extent of not being able to move that he finally released her. With her body covered in bruises, he
simply kicked her aside.
Ichika! Ichika!
Hugging her torn clothes, Himari trembled violently by the side. Her eyes that were swollen from crying
were now filled with an intensifying hatred.
