Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1436 Are You Pregnant

However, just as they were about to depart for the airport, Giichi suddenly turned up at their doorstep and

immediately pulled Solomon aside.

“Are you sure you’re bringing her back, Akiyama? You’d better think twice. Once she leaves with you, her name will

be removed from our family forever, which means if you change your mind someday, she’ll not be able to return to

the Minamoto family anymore!” stated Giichi grimly.

Naturally, he would have to do that.

Considering how Himari was in a comatose state, if he wanted to conceal the true reason Ichika struck out at her,

then that was the only thing he could do. Otherwise, the only fate that awaited Ichika would only be the utter

destruction of her reputation anyway.

Thus, by doing so, he was protecting his daughter, although it was also a gamble at the same time.

If the man standing before him did not treat his daughter well, then there would indeed be no hope left for that girl.

Aoi was gazing at Solomon anxiously, too.

“I remember mentioning this to you before, but Ichika’s last name is now Hayes. I could even show you the

Hayeses’ family record if you want.”

“The Hayes’ family record? Are you saying that Ichika’s name is included in your family record?”

Giichi was utterly dumbfounded, as women in Jetroina were never bestowed such an honor.

Solomon responded with a nonchalant attitude.

“Of course she is. Not only that, but I also plan to hold a shareholders’ meeting at Hayes Corporation after

Christmas and redistribute the company’s shares. As my wife, your daughter may share half of the equity under my

name, which will be inherited by our future offspring as well. Is there anything else you’d like to ask me, Father?”

The word he ended his speech with completely stunned Giichi.

He knew how, throughout those years, Solomon seldom even addressed Yamada as his father.

Thus, he knew what an honor it was to be called that by Solomon.

In the end, both Giichi and Aoi happily sent their daughter off at the airport.

“Ichika, remember to be a good girl and listen to Akiyama when you get there, will you?” Aoi reminded her.

“I know that, Mom.”

“Tell her to bear a son for the Hayeses as soon as possible and inform you once she gets pregnant. I’ll let you go

over to take care of her till she gives birth to the child,” Giichi added.

“Huh?” Aoi was rendered speechless by his statement.

A blush immediately crept up to Ichika’s face.

In fact, her cheeks remained flushed even after they boarded the plane.

After putting their luggage away, Solomon went to join her and noticed she was sitting with her head lowered the

whole time, her ears beet red.

“What did your mother say to you before we boarded?”

“N-Nothing?”

She seemed even more abashed than before, bowing her head so much she was practically burying her face in her

knees.

Seeing that, Solomon refrained from asking any further.

The age gap between them often made him feel like they were generations apart.

He suddenly recalled the time when she decorated his home in pink and with lace too.

This gap in between us really isn’t a small one!

He opened his newspaper and was beginning to read it when suddenly, Ichika leaned toward him timidly, asking,

“H-Hubby, d-do you want to have children?”

“What?!” A single utterance burst from Solomon’s lips, and heads immediately swiveled in their direction

throughout the first-class cabin.

Seeing that, Ichika hurriedly cupped her hand over his mouth to silence him.

“Not so loud, Hubby!” Her face had turned a deep shade of scarlet from the embarrassment.

Solomon realized then that he had indeed lost his composure.

However, it was only because he was overly shocked, so much so that his heart had nearly jumped out of his chest.

Children?

He had never thought about it before.

Shooting a quick glance around, he tried to suppress the overwhelming emotions in his heart.

After what seemed like an eternity, he was finally calm enough to whisper, “D-Do you mean you’re pregnant?”

Again, a blush spread across Ichika’s face.

“N-No, of course not. It’s too soon for that. I was only asking what you think about it. M-My mother was rushing me

to bear your child soon, but I think I’m still young. I’m just twenty, and there are still other things I want to do first. I-

Is that okay with you, Hubby?”

She blinked at him pleadingly.

Solomon stared back at her, saying nothing.

For a second, he felt his heart, which had just shot to the heavens like a rocket, plunge back into the earth in

disappointment.

“But what if you do get pregnant?” he inquired.

“Huh?” Ichika was stumped.

What if I do get pregnant?

Her face fell. “Well, if that happens, I will give birth to the child. He would be our child, Hubby. I’m going to raise him

well.”

After a second’s consideration, the girl had taken on a totally different attitude.

Solomon did not quite know how to respond to that sudden change. However, the gloominess that had filled his

heart a moment ago seemed to have lifted, replaced by a light and pleasant feeling.

“All right. That’s what we’ll do, then. If you’re not pregnant now, then we shall wait till you get a little older. But if

you are, then we’ll bring the child into the world.”

“Okay, Hubby. In that case, should we buy that thing after we get off this plane?”

“What thing?”

“I mean, that thing…”

Ichika suddenly pointed to an advertisement printed on the newspapers he was holding.

Solomon glanced at it, a frown immediately forming on his forehead.

Durex condoms? And ultrathin, too?!
