Chapter 1310

He Deserves Better

In the end, the board of directors meeting ended without a conclusion.

At the same time, when Solomon left the meeting room, a commotion erupted among the employees.

“Oh my God, did you guys see the news? It seems like Mr. George has a secret fiancée.”

“Yeah, I saw! It’s so shocking! It’s a lady from Jetroina even!”

“Aaaahhh…”



The crowd was buzzing with excitement.

After all, after Sebastian left, Solomon had been managing the company well, leading Hayes Corporation
to greater heights. As such, the employees had already fully accepted him as their leader and were
happy that he had found the love of his life.



However, there was one person who did not share the same sentiments.

“What are all of you doing? Why aren’t you working? Get back to your seats,” Akiko chided upon entering
the office, her face darkened after seeing the commotion going on in there.

Immediately, everyone fell quiet and went back to their work.

Who does she think she is? Even Luke, Mr. George’s assistant, has not said anything. What an arrogant
bit*h.



The crowd glanced at the woman in disdain as she entered the president’s office.

In truth, no one was fond of her.

Akiko saw that the man had already returned to his office. After placing the documents in front of him,
she hesitated a moment before plucking up her courage to ask, “Mr. Akiyama, why did you… ask Ms.
Hayes to meet Ms. Minamoto? I thought the plan was to let her stay at the hotel for a few days before
sending her back to Jetroina?”

Initially, Solomon had fully entrusted her to deal with Ichika when the woman had first arrived.

The man had told her then that he had brought Ichika back with him only out of respect for Yamada.

If that was the case, Akiko did not understand why he would ask Sabrina to entertain her.

“Mr. Akiyama, did Ms. Hayes secretly approach Ichika after getting wind about her? Should I release an
official statement to clarify the matter?”

The woman’s eyes suddenly lit up as she contemplated that possibility.

However, Solomon ended up rejecting her suggestion straight out.

After casting an indifferent glance at her, he replied, “There’s no need. I requested for her to do that.”

What?

Color drained from Akiko’s face when she heard his words.

“Mr. Akiyama, what do you mean by that?

“You don’t have to bother yourself with Ichika from now on. Let Sabrina handle it. Just focus on your
work,” Solomon said, sounding slightly impatient.



Akiko noticed a hint of displeasure flash past the man’s face and did not dare to speak further after that.
She dug her nails deep into her palms as her heart sank, feeling resentful that after dealing with Willow,
she had Ichika to deal with.

When will this end?

However, Akiko knew that given Ichika’s family background, that woman wasn’t someone she could pit
herself against. If she did that, it was likely that she would be destroyed at any moment.

As such, Akiko was filled with despair as she left Solomon’s office.

“I did not expect Mr. George to start dating again.”

“Me too. Judging by how devoted he was to Mrs. Hayes, I thought he would remain single for the rest of
his life…” someone suddenly mentioned.

Mrs. Hayes? Why didn’t I think of that!

Realizing that that was something she could work on, Akiko immediately stopped whatever she was
doing and left the office.

…

Meanwhile, after touring around for the entire day, Sabrina and Ichika had returned to Palace Hotel.

Sabrina had taken a liking to the young woman from Jetroina after spending time with her.

“Ichika, it’s set then! You’re coming to my house for dinner tonight.”

“Sure,” Ichika replied shyly.



She was indeed a sweet and adorable girl who still had some baby fat on her cheeks. With her big bright
eyes, Ichika looked extremely pure and innocent, as if untainted by all the negativity that existed in the
world.

The more Sabrina looked at Ichika, the more fond she was of the latter.

On the way back home, Sabrina texted Solomon: I’ve already invited Ichika home for dinner tonight. You
have to come too!

The woman had ended her sentence with an exclamation mark, which meant that it was an order and not
a request.

Solomon was working in his office while sipping on coffee when his phone lit up. After taking a glance at
the screen, he spat out his coffee, feeling shocked.

Seriously? She even invited Ichika over for dinner? Is that really necessary? But they’ve only known
each other for a few hours!

Solomon was speechless.

Half an hour later, when Ichika was getting ready to take a bath before resting for a while, she heard a
knock on her hotel room door.

Thinking that Sabrina had returned, the girl’s eyes lit up as she rushed to open the door at once.
