Chapter 24
GARAM couldn’t hide his surprise after hearing what Lee Eunsang said just now. “Really? Everyone apologized to you p>
“They even bowed their heads, Hyung! I was shocked when the Director did that p>
Huh?
Even Garam was shocked.
After all, he remembered that the director and even the assistant director were arrogant.
But they apologized to Eunsang even though I can tell that they enjoyed bullying my dongsaeng?
“How about Oh Hyunju?” Garam asked curiously. “Did he also apologize to you p>
“No, but Hyunju Hyung can’t look me in the eye for some reason p>
“Uh-huh p>
“Everyone in the set is suddenly walking on eggshells around me as if I suddenly became an important person overnight p>
Oho?
This familiar taste of power p>
Garam suddenly remembered the time that the people who bullied him were punished by Song Sihyuk so easily.
Could it be p>
“Did those people say anything to you when they apologized, Eunsang-ah p>
“They actually blamed each other p>
“What do you mean by that p>
“The production staff members said they were only doing what the director asked them to do. Apparently, they were instructed to not pay that much attention to me. But the director said he was forced to be mean to me because he didn’t want to get on Hyunju Hyung’s bad side p>
Aigoo.
“So, in short, no one wants to take accountability for the bullying p>
“Isn’t it enough that they apologized, Hyung p>
Haaah.
This naïve kid p>
“I guess it’s alright for now,” Garam said. Lee Eunsang would be the bad person if the kids refused to accept the apologies he received, even though those apologies weren’t sincere. “Eunsang-ah, tell me if they suddenly changed their attitude again, okay p>
GARAM actually expected to receive a message from Jung Han, at least.
But even Song Sihyuk’s right-hand man didn’t reach out to him.
And he found it weird.
Why would the director and the entire production staff who bullied Eunsang suddenly apologize to him? They even turned a blind eye when Oh Hyunju acted arrogantly with me. But now they’re bowing their heads to my dongsaeng?
Even Oh Hyunju suddenly stopped bullying Lee Eunsang when Garam was so sure that Oh Hyunju’s bullying would get worse after their confrontation.
It could only mean one thing.
Someone with power and influence scolded everyone involved in the bullying.
There was only one person who entered Garam’s mind.
Sihyuk Hyung.
He was sure that Song Sihyuk was behind everything, so he didn’t understand why his contract husband hadn’t reached out to him yet.
Was Garam wrong?
Is Sihyuk Hyung not the person who stopped the bullying?
“Sir, we’re here p>
Garam snapped out of his idle thoughts when Shin Geon, his personal manager-slash-bodyguard, announced that they had reached their destination.
It was a traditional Korean restaurant.
CEO Myung Hyesu arranged a meeting for him and the representatives of a famous beauty brand that wanted to get him as their new endorser.
Now that I’m out of the military, I need to work my ass off again.
“Sir, please follow me p>
Garam smiled and nodded politely to the kind female staff member who ushered him inside the fancy restaurant.
Of course, CEO Myung Hyesu booked a private room for that meeting.
When he got seated inside the room, he was surprised when Shin Geon bowed his head and left quietly.
Hmm?
Geon Hyung doesn’t usually leave me alone p>
Yeah, the people that he was supposed to meet weren’t there yet.
And, so, he was even more confused when the restaurant staff members started bringing in food until the table was full.
Did CEO Myung already order in advance?
“Sir, this is the special dish made for you,” the female staff said after putting a silver platter with a cloche in front of Garam. “Enjoy your meal p>
Huh?
Before Garam could even ask questions, the staff members had already left the room.
What had just happened?
Is this a prank?
Thinking that there might be cameras around for a reality show that he didn’t sign up for, Garam acted accordingly.
The weirdest thing on the table was the silver platter with cloche.
It doesn’t match the setting and the Korean food on the table.
Hence, he decided to carefully pick up the cloche and check what was served on a silver platter p>
Garam raised an eyebrow when he saw two familiar items: the divorce papers that he sent to Song Sihyuk, and a bottle of miracle pills.
Ah, now I know what’s happening.
“Lee Garam, do you think I’ll let you go when I haven’t played with you properly yet p>
That sexy voice that only knows how to say filthy things p>
Moreover, even though Garam wasn’t an Omega or an Alpha who could smell pheromones, he still had a nose that worked perfectly.
He immediately recognized the nice perfume that a certain someone would often wear.
The one that makes him smell so good.
Garam raised his head and was greeted by the most handsome face he had seen in his life. “So, you’re still alive, Song Sihyuk-ssi p>
Song Sihyuk grabbed the divorce papers and tore them in half. “I can’t die when we haven’t even had sex yet, my sassy little wife p>
So dramatic.
But Garam had to say that Song Sihyuk looked good doing that, so it didn’t really look cringey at all.
This hyung has become more stylish over the years.
Gone was Song Sihyuk’s gangster vibes— just one look at the Alpha and you could immediately tell he came from money.
It wasn’t just because the Alpha was draped with luxury brands from head to toe.
It’s his aura.
“Do you like the view, Garam-ah?” Song Sihyuk asked teasingly when he caught Garam staring at him. “Should we consummate our marriage right here, right now p>
Garam grabbed a menthol candy from the pocket of his trousers and threw it at Song Sihyuk— the Alpha’s quick reflex allowing him to catch the candy before it hit his (ridiculously handsome) face. “It’s embarrassing to still have a filthy mouth at your big age, Hyung p>
“Yah,” Song Sihyuk complained, obviously offended. “Thirty is still young p>
