Chapter 44.2

“I’m sorry to make you nervous. I won’t make you upset like I did yesterday.”

“……How?”

Adam asked, glancing at the beach. Hae-won thought hard and opened her mouth.

“Well, I’ll tell you everything that happened around me without hiding anything. Would that be a relief?”

“!”

Hae-won herself will even brief him on the daily routine he was secretly monitoring behind her back. Adam was quite surprised, but Hae-won continued.

“Actually, the reverberation that got on my body yesterday. I walked Louis home, and I think I got it in a hug before we separated.”

Hugging?

As Adam opened his eyes wide, Hae-won hurriedly added.

“It wasn’t a strange atmosphere at all. I think it was because Louis was getting help in the midst of difficulties, and I couldn’t draw the line properly because I was comforting him.”

Adam’s eyes narrowed.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Hae-won, but he thought he should check the black box on her car thoroughly in the future. Yeah, black box. How did I forget the black box?

“But I’m relieved that Haewon is being honest.”

Adam laughed with his fingers crossed in Hae-won’s hands.

Actually, she didn’t have to tell him what happened in the car.

He could feel Haewon’s sincerity.

He couldn’t see her as a woman who could make a living with another man. Of course, his night technique was excellent.

Adam was relieved with a self-praise.

“I thought Adam would be more upset if you found out later.”

“Yes, I suppose so.”

Adam nodded.

Of course, she wouldn’t tell Adam about Louis in a strange way. Hae-won was careful to hurt Adam’s delicate heart.

Hae-won misunderstood Adam as a tough-looking but very soft-hearted man. And Adam had a natural gift for acting like that.

“That’s right. And Louis. I promised to help him, but you won’t worry about anything. Once things are going on, I’ll usually contact the lawyer, and we’re only providing a consultation space.”

“Oh, you finally decided to help him?”

“Yes, I couldn’t bear to leave him alone…….”

Hae-won bowed her head as if she had no shame.

Even Adam was not very pleased to have her doing good things. However, Hae-won apologized again.

“I apologize again for the lingering scent. It may sound like an excuse, but I’m insensitive and I don’t feel the reverberation of Omega very well.”

“!”

For Adam, that was not an excuse but a truth.

Seo Hae-won is insensitive and cannot usually catch the lingering scent of Omega. That means that there is very little chance of being affected by pheromones.

Either Real Omega or a fake Omega.

Ah.

You lovely alpha.

Adam raised Hae-won’s hand, rubbed it against her cheek, and said with an odd smile, “I accept your apology.”

The next day.

Li Yu-yen loaded the shopping bag handed by Adam into the passenger seat and drove to the Seohwa Welfare Foundation.

He didn’t know he would be in direct contact with Seo Hae-won. Maybe once he’s too deep in the Seohwa group?

That doesn’t mean that the original purpose of the JS group was neglected, but the feeling that the main audience had been turned over could not be erased.

“Oh, you’re here”

So he arrived in front of the representative office with his hands full of gifts to give to Haewon, and a woman who appeared to be a secretary pretended to know.

LIm Bora.

“You arrived very early, didn’t you?”

Bora asked, glancing at her watch.

Did Adam give you a word in advance?

Li Yu-yen was briefly embarrassed but quickly convinced. He was trying to introduce himself like that, but he had shopping bags in both hands, so he didn’t have enough hands to hand over his business card.

“I got it for CEO Seo, but I’ll put it up here for a while.”

“Yes, yes. Make yourself at home.”

Bora made room by pushing the frame and keyboard with Louis’ signature to the side.

Li Yu-yen put down his shopping bag and rummaged through his pockets. But there was no wallet anywhere. Oh, did I leave it in the car?

“Why are you doing all this……. Wow! This is a sweltering place these days!”

He closed his eyes and thought about the whereabouts of his wallet, and Li Yuyen, surprised by the loud noise made by Bora, opened his eyes.

“It’s in front of the main street across from the college, right? I really wanted to go there one day, but you bought it for me. It’s amazing.”

“Oh, yes… I think that’s probably it.”

College? He doesn’t know exactly which university she’s talking about, so Li Yu-yen blurted out the end of his sentence. Bora stared at Li Yu-yen, who stood awkwardly.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Li Yu-yen asked in a slightly nervous voice.

“No, you’re all dressed up.”

Bora grinned.
