Chapter 1485 Bad News
However, the results showed that Ichika had no problems at all.
âSir, the various indicators concluded that your wife is perfectly fine in all aspects. In fact, the test
results are excellent. Sheâs just slightly over twenty. Itâs highly unlikely to have any issue for this golden
age. I suggest that you have yourself a thorough check-up too,â the doctor proposed after scanning the
results.
Solomon froze.
My turn to go for tests?
He had never imagined this day would come. Skimming through the list in his hands, his face started to
turn pale.
Ichika was waiting for him outside the consultation room. Upon seeing him, she ran over to him and
asked, âHowâs it? Am I okay, Darling?â
She did not enter the room just now because she was too frightened to hear any bad news.
Solomon looked her in the eyes and shook his head. âNothing. Youâre just too tired. The doctor has
prescribed some pills for you to treat it. Youâll be fine in no time.â
âAll right, thatâs a relief. Darling, I should head back now. Itâs almost five, peak hours for the customers
to arrive soon.â
Knowing that her test results were normal, Ichika asked to return to the bar as soon as she could.
Solomon cast another look at her. Moments later, he agreed, âOkay, you go ahead. Iâll collect the
medication for you. I think itâs some herbal remedy, so it takes a while.â
âAww⦠Youâre the best! Thank you, Darling.â
After giving her husband a peck on his cheek, she scurried away without suspecting anything.
Solomon stood rooted to the spot until her back profile could no longer be seen.
Subsequently, he went back to the hospital and headed straight to the andrology department.
An hour and a battery of tests later, he held the reports in his hands and walked to the consultation
room.
âSir, bad news. Though youâre only thirty-one years old, the analysis indicates that your sperm
morphology rate is less than five percent. Did something happen to you before?â
He remained dazed for a long time as though a streak of lightning had just struck him squarely on the
head.
Only five percent are excellent? Why is that so? What have I gone through?
Those words kept playing in his mind. He tried to think, but he was unable to process anything at that
point.
Considering his response, the doctor inspected the report once more.
âAdditionally, the sperm mortality rate isnât good too. I found it a bit peculiar that you have a
reproduction system problem at this age. Itâs best we discuss in detail and find a way to treat it.â
Silence ensued.
After at least a minute, Solomon opened his mouth. âin the past, I⦠Iâve had a severe illness. Iâm not
sure if that was the root cause?â
âA critical illness?â the doctor widened his eyes.
âWhat was it? Please share with me.â
âUm⦠Itâs a form of blood disease due to the medication I took when I was young. I was intoxicated for
an extension period of time, causing a disorder in my bone marrow. Would that have left a side-effect
on me?â
His voice was quivering and barely audible toward the end of his speech.
His suspicion had manifested in those careful words he had chosen to express.
Oh yes, how could I have forgotten about it? The chronic disease which almost snatched my life away.
Itâs highly possible that it has affected my body in other ways too. After all, that were still drugs.
The doctor went silent.
Solomon had no idea how he dragged himself out of the hospital. When he finally snapped back into
his senses, he found himself sitting in his car with his phone buzzing non-stop next to him. It was
already nighttime.
âHello?â
âWhere are you, Darling? Why didnât you pick up my calls? Have you already gone back?â
It was Ichika.
She thought that Solomon had left for Avenport when he did not show up at the bar.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Solomon gradually opened his mouth. âNot yet. I had errands to run,
so I missed your calls. Where are you?â
âIâm at the bar. Why donât you come over now, Darling? Iâve prepared lots of delicious food for you.â
Ichika was very excited. She was in the mood to spring a surprise on him.
Hearing that, Solomonâs heart sank.
Half an hour later, he arrived at the bar.
Though it was their peak hours, Ichika reserved the best room for themselves. There was an array of
dishes served on the tableâall specially made for Solomon.
âYouâre finally here. Quick, head inside and dine with Ichika. Weâll manage the rest,â Sasha urged.
She was very understanding, knowing that a sweet couple needed their time and space together.
Ichika brought him into the room.
âSee, Darling, itâs all your favorite food. I purposely made them for you since you havenât had a chance
to taste them for a month now. Are you salivating yet?â She chuckled.
âOh yes, thereâs sake too!â
She served her husband enthusiastically as she introduced dish by dish.
Compared to the past, she was more open, bold, and passionate now. She was no longer the timid girl
she used to be.
Clenching his fists, Solomon answered, âOkay.â
He did not say much but merely nodded. Then, he took a sip of the sake.
