Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1373 Fight Amongst Sisters

When Aoi opened the door, she saw Ichika with two huge bags in her hands. They were filled to the brim with Aoi

and Himari’s personal belongings.

In comparison to Himari, Ichika is much more sensible and caring.

Aoi’s mood brightened when she thought of this. She took the bags from Ichika’s hands and ushered her into the

room.

“Ichika, where is Mr. Akiyama? Didn’t he send you here?”

“He did. I told him to return home first. Since he has work tomorrow, I didn’t want him to stay up too late,” Ichika

replied.

The mere mention of Solomon caused her to beam from ear to ear.

When Aoi noticed Ichika’s blissful smile, she couldn’t help but feel happy for her daughter too.

Contrarily, Himari felt a stab of envy and hatred. How could Ichika be so happy? It’s so unfair!

“Ichika, despite your love, your husband doesn’t even reciprocate your feelings. Was it worth getting married when

your love is one-sided?” Himari sneered.

“What did you just say?”

Instantly, Ichika’s mood took a drastic turn.

Aoi whirled around and glared at Himari in anger. “Himari, what on earth are you saying? Watch your mouth!”

“I’m only telling the truth. Mom, we came here to see if Ichika is happily married. Yet, you saw it with your own

eyes. They don’t even share a room. That night, he didn’t even touch her when we forced them into the same

room.”

“You—”

“Moreover, her husband is the only one who refused to spend the night here. It’s all because he’s still secretly in

love with the woman who owns this villa. That’s why he didn’t have the courage to remain here with Ichika!” Himari

continued ruthlessly.

Himari had become deranged.

Even in front of Aoi, she divulged all the secrets without holding back.

Himari’s outburst left Aoi utterly dumbfounded.

On the other side of the room, Ichika’s face had turned deathly pale. It was as if all the blood had drained from her

cheeks. When she heard Himari’s cruel words, her entire body shook with rage. Promptly, Ichika dashed forward

and slapped Himari across the cheek.

Slap!

The slap rang so loud that it could be heard outside.

Outside, Sharon and Wendy were taking care of the two children. When they heard the sound, both women jolted in

shock before rushing toward the guestroom.

“Himari, you’ve crossed the line! Get out of this house immediately! You are not welcome here!” Ichika was so

enraged that she nearly burst into tears.

With reddened eyes, Ichika glared at her crazed sister and ordered her to leave.

Get out? I’m her older sister! I can’t believe she had the audacity to order me around.

Ichika’s slap added fuel to the fire, and Himari felt her anger increase tenfold.

“Ichika, I can’t believe you had the guts to hit me! You even asked me to leave this place! Do you know that your

marriage was once mine? I can’t believe you are acting all high and mighty after stealing my man!” Himari shrieked

like a banshee and lunged toward Ichika with her hands outstretched.

However, Himari’s yells did not faze Ichika. When she saw Himari lunging toward her, she merely lifted her skirt and

prepared to defend herself.

Hmph! I’m not afraid of her at all.

The sight of her daughters getting into a fight nearly drove Aoi up the wall. “Stop this at once! How could both of

you act like this when you are guests in someone else’s house!” she cried out.

Hearing this, Ichika decided to heed her mother’s advice as she released her skirt and let her guard down.

All of a sudden, Himari’s hand landed on her face with lightning speed.

Bang!

The blow caught Ichika entirely off-guard as she lost her momentum and stumbled backward. Himari’s vicious hit

caused her to collapse to the floor.

“Oh my God, Ms. Ichika, what happened to you?”

“Ichika, are you all right?”

Wendy and Sharon opened the door just in time to see Ichika falling to the ground with a loud thud. Startled, they

quickly rushed forward to help Ichika back to her feet.

“Ichika, how do you feel? Are you all right?” When Sharon caught sight of Ichika’s reddened and swollen face, she

felt her blood boil in fury.

Although the pain caused Ichika’s eyes to well up with tears, she refused to burst out crying. In an attempt to

maintain her family’s reputation, Ichika merely smiled and said, “Aunt Sharon, I’m fine. Himari and I were just

fooling around.”

“But—” Although Sharon wanted to say something else, she held her tongue when she saw Ichika fighting back

tears.

Nonetheless, Sharon’s expression darkened. It was clear that her mood had taken a drastic turn.

“Wendy, go look around the house for some ointments to treat Ichika’s face,” Sharon ordered in a cold voice.

“Right away.” Immediately, Wendy rushed off to carry out Sharon’s instructions.

Finally, Sharon helped Ichika back to her feet.

Aoi was caught between a rock and a hard place. Although she wanted to clarify the situation, she didn’t know

where to start. In the end, Aoi stood to the side as she grimaced awkwardly.

“Mrs. Blackwood, they—”

Before Aoi could offer an explanation, Sharon said, “Mrs. Minamoto, squabbles between sisters are not uncommon.

However, they aren’t petty children anymore. They should know how to mind their words and actions. In the past,

my daughter used to fight with Sasha too. But because I never kept them in check, I ended up losing my daughter.”

“What?” Aoi was stunned when she heard this.
