Chapter 108.2
Absolute Advantage
âi donât have that hobby. letâs keep it simple. iâm just trying to correct the wrong. letâs put everything back to its original position.â
is this so hard to understand? adam tilted his head.
âput it back?â
âyes, the chairman continues to reign as the king of the seohwa group, and you leave hae-won alone. itâs mine, her.â
adamâs playful eyes subsided calmly. adam, who declared haewon his own, was more serious than ever.
chairman seo read the indescribable obsession from his still eyes.
âare you serious?â
âwhy canât i believe it? oh, because iâm the same omega as haewon?â
chairman seo answered in silence.
âi donât care about traits.â
â!â
chairman seo clenched her fist tightly.
adam didnât care because he was the alpha, but chairman seo, who didnât know that fact, couldnât help but feel empty.
âi donât care about traits, woohee. you live as you are. iâll always be by your side.â
her older sister, who said that the trait was secondary, eventually left her and met another man. just because heâs an omega.
alpha meets omega, and omega meets alpha. the pairing of these two is the same natural principle as when a male and female meet.
itâs the fate of a species.
no.
is it possible that strangers who have lived without knowing each otherâs existence for decades meet by chance and completely love each other?
calling animal instincts love!
âwhat a load of nonsense!â
chairman seo jumped to her feet.
âi canât listen to you any more. iâm sick of it! how long have you been obsessed with her? no, itâs all acting anyway. do you think iâll be fooled? i know people like you best. eun-chan, the father of the child, was of the same race as you! he was a man who sold his child in front of money! my sister,â
âdonât you remember? you stole her.â
adam cut off chairman seoâs words.
he didnât listen to chairman seo at all. it was not a place to have a conversation in the first place.
itâs just a place to take whatâs his.
âwhat?â
âyou were the one who treated seo hae-won as dead along with her father, jeong eun-chan, who took her back to korea from manila that day.â
âthat, howâ¦â¦.â
âso i thought she was really dead.â
you knew that long ago?
while chairman seo was speechless, adam continued to speak in a calm tone.
âit took me a while to figure out that it was really the same person. the fact that people have certain habits from the moment they are born.â
adamâs gaze was frontal, but he seemed to be looking at something else.
âitâs like destiny, like fate.â
adam muttered nonsense as if it were a natural truth.
âso why donât you return hae-won calmly, chairman? i want to end this deal amicably for her.â
a dealâ¦
adamâs bizarrely twisted affection gave the chairman a sense of relief. his feelings are something she herself can understand.
an over-the-top obsession.
an area of emotion that cannot be explained rationally.
chairman seo narrowed her eyebrows, painfully, recalling seo kwon-jinâs last appearance.
âyouâre out of your mind.â
âthank you for the compliment.â
adam replied with a smile.
âso, my suggestion is,â
it was time for adam to open his mouth again.
someone burst in the door of the chairmanâs office without knocking.
âi told you not to let anyone inâ¦â
chairman seo, who was looking toward the door, blurted out the end of his words.
âsera? why are you here?â
chairman seo glanced at adam sitting down and approached sera.
whenever she suddenly approached one step at a time, she felt an unknown anxiety. this is because there was a dangerous atmosphere from sera, who was staring at adam without any movement.
âwhat brought you here?â
chairman seo asked.
then sera turned her head and looked at her mother.
âitâs all right, mother. i can handle it all.â
âwhat?â
sera made a strange noise instead of answering.
âactually, i just solved a problem a while ago. kang tae-oh failed, but i never fail.â
âwhat the hell did you solve? who is kang tae oh?â
chairman seo questioned her in an unbecoming manner.
âjoo adam, seeing that heâs here, mother must know everything now.â
âyes, itâs going to be done, so go home now.â
âno, it canât be done. heâs a terrible guy. i canât let my mother be swayed!â
chairman seo put her hand on seraâs shoulder and pushed her toward the door. however, sera resisted by twisting her body vigorously.
then something in seraâs jacketâs inner pocket reflected the light.
âwhat are you hiding in your clothes?â
chairman seo, who instinctively sensed the threat, urgently asked.
