Chapter 1437

Christmas

The couple arrived in Frontier Bay three days before Christmas.

“How are we spending Christmas, then? Stay here till the eve, then leave for Jadeborough?” asked
Sabrina.

Having no idea herself, Sasha glanced at Sebastian, who was having his meal at the dining table.

Of course, they hoped to spend the holidays at Frontier Bay if it were up to them. However, they could
not neglect the Jadesons either, as both Devin and Sebastian came from that family.



Besides, Jonathan was looking forward to meeting his great-grandchildren as well.



“You should go back with Devin first.” Sebastian eventually compromised and decided Sabrina should
return to Jadeborough for Christmas with Jaena in tow.

Sabrina’s face immediately fell.



She wasn’t thrilled about it, but she did not want to oppose her brother’s idea either.

Thus, after Solomon and Ichika came back, they all had a reunion dinner two days before Christmas.
Then Sabrina and Devin left for Jadeborough, bringing Jaena with them.





As for Sebastian and Sasha, they planned to return to Jadeborough on Christmas day itself.

Ichika was incredibly excited when she learned about this arrangement, not to mention it was also her
first time spending Christmas in this country. After hearing that they would be having lunch in Frontier
Bay on Christmas eve and then visiting the Hayes Residence in the evening, she woke up early on
Christmas eve.

“I’m going to Sha’s, Hubby. Lots of people are going to her house for lunch later, and she probably
needs an extra hand to prepare everything.”

Solomon had gotten up as well and was feeding the two goldfish in the fish tank.

“But didn’t you say you were going shopping?” he asked, turning back to look at her.

Only then did she realize she had completely forgotten about that.

She quickly returned to their bedroom to retrieve the shopping list, which she had gotten from Wendy
earlier.

The items listed were things she needed to prepare for Christmas to create a festive mood and holiday
atmosphere for their home.

She read through it carefully.

“Where can I get all this stuff, Hubby?” she asked, pointing at the list.

Taking it over, Solomon took a good look at it—Christmas lights, stockings, wreaths, candles, and
more.

It was a very complete list indeed.

Solomon clutched the piece of paper tightly, an unfathomable feeling surging in his heart.



He was suddenly overcome by an inexplicable urge to buy those things himself, just like a child
tempted by his favorite shirt in the supermarket.

He had not felt that way for a long time.

“Why don’t we go and buy these things together?”

“Huh?” Ichika looked up at him. Then a smile spread across her face as she agreed, “Okay, then! Let’s
shop for these together!”

Thus, Ichika, who had promised to help out at Sasha’s, happily went Christmas shopping with Solomon
instead.

Meanwhile, at Frontier Bay, Sasha and Wendy were bustling about in the kitchen, waiting for her to
arrive.

“Madam, look at the time now. I don’t think Ms. Minamoto is coming after all. Everyone will be here for
lunch at noon, and there’s still a ton of stuff we haven’t bought yet.”

“Ah!” Sasha’s hands were already full.

Left with no choice, she went out, looking for Sebastian, who was decorating the house with the three
children.

“Ichika’s still not here yet. Can you help me get some stuff from the supermarket?”

“Sure. What sort of stuff?”

Sebastian hopped off the stool after hanging up the Christmas garlands.



Sasha went over to pass him the shopping list. “Pastry flour, rum, and some condiments. But are you
sure you know what these are, Darling?”

Whenever she addressed him as her darling, it meant she needed him to treat the matter at hand with
utmost seriousness.

Sebastian frowned at her. “Duh! What do you think?”

Snatching the list over, he went toward Vivian, who was setting up the Christmas lights outside the villa.

“Come on, Vivi. Let’s go to the supermarket together.”

“All right!”

The cute little girl dropped the Christmas lights at once, leaving the work to her brothers, and ran to
catch up with her father.

Thus, Sebastian went to the supermarket with Vivian in tow.

The moment they got there, he took out the wrinkled piece of paper from his pocket. Seeing the first
item on the list, the man, who grew up pampered and had never lifted a finger to do any housework,
came to the flour section and instantly became boggled by the variety available in that section.

Vivian was just as dazed by the sight.

Blinking at him innocently, she asked, “Why don’t I ask that lady there to help us with this? There are
too many types of flour here. What if we end up buying the wrong one?”

Sebastian clenched his fists a little.

If he were to follow the usual manner he did things, he would simply have asked an employee to help
him pack one bag of each type of those flour and load them into his car.



However, he knew he would only return home to be seen as a joke if he did that. Thus, he heeded his
daughter’s advice and asked one of the salesgirls for help.

“Pastry flour? Here it is,” she said, packing him a bag with ease.
