Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1488

Chapter 1488 Noticed Something Strange

“Why did you sleep here, Darling? Have you been working all night?” The woman’s eyes welled up the moment she noticed Solomon’s bloodshot eyes and unkempt facial hair.

“I’m fine. I just had a lot to do. That’s all,” replied Solomon in a hoarse voice while looking at his teary-eyed wife.

“But this is going to take a toll on your health. You can’t work all night like this. Please, Darling. You have to promise me that you’ll stop doing this to yourself, okay?” pleaded Ichika as tears started to roll down her cheeks.

Seeing how heartbroken his wife was, Solomon could no longer hold it in. He immediately wrapped his arms around Ichika and embraced her tightly.

“Okay, I promise.”

After that, the couple went downstairs to have breakfast as usual. It was just like every other morning until they were done with their meal.

“Ichika, I’ll be away for two days. Do you want to go to Frontier Bay? Or maybe the Hayes residence?”

“Huh?” Still busy cleaning up the table, Ichika lifted her head when she heard her husband. He’s going abroad again? But I just got back home. Can’t he stay a while longer with me?

As much as the news saddened her, Ichika decided to be understanding. Even as a young girl, she was taught to respect the decision of the family’s breadwinner.

“Don’t worry about me. Just come home soon, okay?”

“I will. So will you be going to Frontier Bay or the Hayes residence? I have to inform them.”

Solomon could feel his heart break a little when he saw how Ichika pouted at the sudden news, so he immediately grabbed his phone and called the Hayes residence.

He remembered Ichika had mentioned that there was no point in going to Frontier Bay since the children were no longer there. On the contrary, she could help out at the Hayes residence since Thanksgiving was just around the corner.

Relieved to see that Ichika was kept busy there, Solomon packed and flew off to Jetroina.

Haruto was already waiting for him when he got there.

Meanwhile, at the Oceanic Estate, Sasha only found out about Solomon’s trip when Ichika texted her. The Jetroinian needed help finding some stuff at the Hayes residence.

Sasha: I thought you just got home. Why did Solomon have to go abroad all of a sudden? Couldn’t he stay for another a day or two?

“Let me make a phone call.” With that, Sebastian took his phone out and started dialing.

Since he was the one who almost single-handedly put Hayes Corporation on the map, it was only natural for Sebastian to be concerned about the company’s welfare. If something terrible were to happen to Hayes, there was no way the man could sit by idly.

However, to Sebastian’s surprise, Luke told his boss that there was nothing wrong with the company.

“Mr. Hayes, I’m not sure what Mr. George has been so busy with lately, but I can assure you that none of us at the company have been working overtime or attending late-night meetings. You can check the records for yourself.”

What the heck was Solomon busy with then?

With his brows still tightly knitted, Sebastian followed up with another question. “Could it be something personal?”

“Something personal?” After thinking for a while, the assistant remembered Solomon’s odd behaviors.

“Now that you mention it, I did notice how strange Mr. George has been acting lately. He always comes to work looking exhausted and distracted. Not only that, but he also seemed to be easily irritated all the time. He wasn’t like that before.”
