Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover Chapter 1294
Sasha froze and stared at him with a blank face for almost a minute. She found herself not able to utter
a single word in response.
Through his words, she knew that he had let go of her.
Though she was happy about it, she also felt guilty and sad when she saw how composed he was
because she was indebted to him.
Later that evening, the rightful owner of Royal Court One at Frontier Bay returned, despite still in a
coma.
All the relatives and close friends of the Hayeses were invited over. Among them were the Wands and
the Blackwoods. It was a really merry scene.
However, the lights on the top floor of Hayes Corporation were still brightly lit.
“Mr. Akiyama, aren’t you heading over?”
Akiko was still working when she realized that the president was still in his office. After hesitating, she
decided to post the question.
The man in the office glanced at her through the corner of his eye. “Whatever for?”
The brief and unexpected reply rendered Akiko speechless.
She stood there for a while and left. Shortly after, she returned with two bottles of authentic sake from
Jetroina.
“Sake, Mr. Akiyama?”

What?
Solomon gazed at that Jetroinian woman standing at his door. For a split second, he really wanted to
shoo her away as he found her annoying. He did not want her to keep disturbing him.
However, when he saw how careful she was, trying to please him. He said nothing but nodded to
indicate that he had accepted her invitation.
About ten minutes later, two of them starting downing the liquor at the coffee table, one glass after
another.
“Mr. Akiyama, you’ve sacrificed at least half of our people for the sake of saving him. Do you regret that
decision? He’s your love rival, isn’t he? If things go well for him, you will lose your chance to win her.”
After a few shots, Akiko grew bolder.
Her questions made Solomon turn grim. “You’ve had too much to drink.”
“Right. I’m sorry.” A quick reprimand silenced her. Regaining her senses, she bowed her head and
dared not say anything further.
Solomon continued drinking.
“Um… Mr. Akiyama, are you going back to Jetroina two days later for the ceremony? Your mother’s
death anniversary is just around the corner…”
“No!” the man shot a firm reply while furrowing his brows.
Akiko’s face fell.
As they continued drinking, they heard the sound of a woman’s heels approaching. Click-cluck, click-
cluck.
“Solomon? You really are here. Why aren’t you attending the party at Nancy’s house? She asks me to
come and get you.”
The door was pushed open by a young lady in a light green dress.
When she saw the two of them in the office, a surprised look settled upon her gorgeous face. Then,
she smiled. It was a very charming smile which instantly brightened up the room.
Willow? She’s here too.
For no apparent reason, mere displeasure flashed across Akiko’s face.
Solomon was curious. “What brings you here?”
“Can’t I come over? I’m her best friend. Now that she’s back with her husband, she would certainly
inform me. Come on, Solomon, let’s go and celebrate.”
She strode across the room and unhesitatingly wrapped her arms around Solomon’s.
They were definitely not a stranger to each other.
Back in Clear, Sasha’s best friends were none other than Willow and Solomon. They spent most of
their days together.
Later on, Willow had always been a big part of Solomon’s life, be it when he was operating a bar in
Jetroina or when he escaped to Clear when he found out he was terminally ill. Hence, it was only
normal that they were close and intimate.
Looking helpless, Solomon did not know what to do with Willow.
“I’m quite busy, and I haven’t finished all the tasks at hand yet.”
“Cut the crap! I know you too well. Come on, let’s go. Everyone’s waiting for you, the party won’t be
complete without your presence. Nancy truly wishes for you to be there. I’m sure Sebastian concurs
with her too once he wakes up.”

Akiko turned green with envy as she watched from the coffee table. Subconsciously, a trace of hatred
appeared in her eyes.
She wanted to compete with Sasha. Yet, she was not even at par with Willow.
Seeing how brazen the latter was in front of Solomon, Akiko dreamed about having the same privilege
to act similarly.
Willow forced Solomon to show up at Royal Court One in Frontier Bay. The moment he appeared, he
was greeted by everyone’s warm welcome, including Sabrina and the rest of the Hayeses.
“Why are you only arriving now, Solomon? You even needed Willow to personally bring you here. Is
there a need for such formalities?”
Sasha, the lady of the house, approached him with a glass of champagne.
At that instant, Solomon felt slightly uneasy. “Oh, no, it took me a while to finish the pending work…”
“You need to get your priorities right. What’s the occasion? It’s the very day your brother comes home.
Is your work more important than him? You’re too much.” Sabrina walked over and handed him an
appetizer while giving him a piece of her mind like a big sister he never had.
Both Solomon and Sasha were shocked to their wits when they heard the phrase Sabrina used.
My brother? Is she referring to… Sebastian?
Everyone quietened down. At that very moment, no one said another word. Their glistening eyes
revealed their inner thoughts. Finally, there was acceptance amidst the family.
From the perspective of a family, they were indeed brothers. They both addressed Frederick as their
father, regardless of whether they were related by blood.
