Married For Now-Chapter 165: POWER OF LOVE
Chapter 165: POWER OF LOVE
SOHEE silently drank his glass of milk (that he craved after eating fruits earlier) while watching Kim Heedo read the email that he got from his lawyer.
His husband called his lawyer earlier and requested a copy of the post-nuptial agreement.
Thankfully, the lawyer sent it to Kim Heedo’s email without asking questions.
Kim Heedo showed me where he kept the physical copy of our post-nuptial agreement, but it’s in our apartment.
"Hyung, you must really like gold."
"Huh?"
Kim Heedo lifted his head and met Sohee’s gaze. "The post-nuptial agreement says I have to make a goose statue out of real gold for you if I divorce you."
Oh, that.
"I see gold as my safety net in case you dump me for another person," Sohee explained. "That was at the beginning of our relationship. Now, my love for gold is like an inside joke for us. I’m not obsessed with it, but I’ll accept any gold you give me."
"That’s understandable since gold is a good investment. But why do I want to make a goose statue out of real gold for you?"
"Our first son is a golden goose."
"Excuse me?"
"I’ll explain later once we get home," Sohee said. Although his tone was light, he was serious as hell. "That’s why you have to go home with me, Heedo-ya."
"Alright."
"Huh?"
Sohee was dumbfounded because he didn’t expect Kim Heedo to agree with him so easily.
I mean, this is the Kim Heedo who was obsessed with Lee Junsu in the past... freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Hyung, you must think that the past me made this ridiculous post-nuptial agreement as a warning to the future me— to scare the amnesiac me from divorcing you."
"Isn’t that the case?"
"This is actually a plead."
"A plead? What do you mean by that?"
Kim Heedo frowned, and then he shook his head. "I have to protect the old me’s dignity, so I’m not telling."
Pfft.
Sohee wanted to tease Kim Heedo because the old him wouldn’t have said something as ridiculous as that, but he held back.
This result is enough for me.
"But I have a condition, Hyung."
"What is it?"
"I’ll go home with you, but we’re not going back to where we’re currently living together," Kim Heedo said awkwardly. "I’d like it if we stay with my parents in the meantime."
Oh.
Whew.
Sohee was relieved to hear that.
I thought he’d request that we live separately in the meantime.
"Alright, let’s do that," Sohee said while nodding. "Let’s stay at your parents’ house until you recover your memories."
"Are you confident that I’ll recover my memories?"
"Yep."
"What makes you sound so confident?"
"The power of love."
Sohee knew that it was a lame and cringeworthy joke.
It was the type of humor that only his old Kim Heedo would get. Hence, he didn’t expect any positive reaction from his amnesiac husband.
And that was why he was surprised when Kim Heedo laughed.
Well, it was short-lived.
Kim Heedo quickly caught himself and stopped himself from laughing, and then he cleared his throat as if nothing happened. "Can I say goodbye to Lee Junsu first? I want to talk to him in private."
In private, huh?
That means he wants to talk to Lee Junsu alone. I’m not happy with it, but I should grant him his little wish since he’s coming home with me anyway.
However...
"If you’re going to talk to Lee Junsu in private, then I’m going to talk to Sanha Hyung in private, too."
Sohee called Sanha ’hyung’ on purpose, wondering what Kim Heedo’s reaction would be.
And he wasn’t disappointed.
"Why is that person your ’hyung,’ huh?"
Pfft.
With memories or not, an Alpha’s jealousy is really ridiculous.
"That hyung is older than me, so what am I supposed to call him?"
"Just call him Sanha-ssi or something. Are you close with that person?"
"Did you really lose your memories?" Sohee asked teasingly. "Heedo-ya, that’s the same things you said to me before."
"It’s just the Alpha in me talking," Kim Heedo said, avoiding his gaze. "No Alpha would want another Alpha near their pregnant Omega."
Riiight.
"Heedo-ya, Omegas has tendencies to be possessive, too. Just because I agreed to give you private time with Lee Junsu doesn’t mean I’m 100% fine with it."
"I guess it’s natural for you to feel that way because Lee Junsu is an Omega now."
"What?"
"Lee Junsu is an Omega now. I thought you already knew that."
"I’m aware that Lee Junsu is taking miracle pills that could turn a Beta into an Omega, but I didn’t know that he had already turned into one."
Now that he knew, Sohee was pissed.
Omegas could smell their fellow Omegas, but I didn’t smell Lee Junsu’s pheromones. Did Heedo catch his scent because he’s a Hyper-Dominant Alpha with enhanced senses?
"That’s probably why Lee Junsu smells strange."
"Strange? How?"
"He smells like half-Beta and half-Omega," Kim Heedo explained. "So, it’s like he hasn’t completely transitioned yet."
Well, it was probably because Lee Junsu needed a Hyper-Dominant Alpha’s pheromones.
But Heedo doesn’t need to know that.
"Heedo-ya, I don’t care whether Lee Junsu is a full Omega now or not," Sohee said sternly. "Remember, you’re married to me while Lee Junsu is in a committed relationship with Sanha Hyung."
"Don’t call that person ’hyung.’"
"Then finish your conversation with Lee Junsu in less than fifteen minutes. If you’re late even a minute, I won’t listen to your request."
"Fine," Kim Heedo said, huffing. "But you have to finish your conversation with that person in ten minutes."
"Ten minutes?" Sohee complained. Well, he had no intention of talking to Sanha for that long anyway. But it was still unfair. "You can’t be possessive of me until you recover your memories, you brat."
***
TSK.
Kim Heedo was annoyed.
Even though he was in the other room, he could smell the two Alphas in the room with Park Sohee.
The first Alpha would be Sanha.
Since Sohee Hyung said he wanted to have a private talk with that Alpha.
But, for Park Sohee’s safety, he insisted that a friend should accompany him.
Hence, Hong Sera and Cho Euntak volunteered.
So, that kid is the other Alpha with Sohee Hyung.
Actually, Kwon Gaon and Yang Jaewon also volunteered to accompany Park Sohee.
But Heedo refused his friends’ offer of protection.
I feel like I’d lose my mind if Sohee Hyung gets surrounded by more Alphas even though two of them are my close friends.
"Heedo-ya?"
Oh.
Heedo’s annoying thoughts were cut short when Lee Junsu called his attention.
As he asked, only the two of them were in the reception room.
And it was weird.
I used to be excited when I had some alone time with Lee Junsu. But right now... even breathing is hard.
Heedo didn’t want to admit this, but Lee Junsu’s scent was putting him off.
"You wanted to talk to me," Lee Junsu complained. "So, why aren’t you saying anything?"
"I’m sorry. I got distracted for a moment," Heedo said. "I just want to assure you that Hong Sera promised that her older brothers won’t lay a hand on you. But since Hong Sera almost died because of you, I can’t really ask her to let what happened slide. You have to face the consequences of your own actions, Junsu-ya."
"So, are we talking about accountability here?"
"Junsu-ya, must you be sarcastic?"
"I talked to your parents earlier."
"What did you talk about?"
"I demanded compensation from them."
"Compensation for what?"
"For the time your grandfather tried to kill me."
Heedo knitted his eyebrows, confused. "My grandfather tried to kill you? When was that, Junsu-ya? And why didn’t you tell me?"
"It doesn’t matter when it happened since it has already been a long time since then. But I still want to be compensated."
Heedo wanted to insist on knowing the full story.
However, Lee Junsu suddenly dropped a bombshell on him.
"Heedo-ya, I’ve already decided what I want for compensation," Lee Junsu said in a serious tone. "And that would be your pheromones."
Huh?
Heedo knitted his eyebrows. "Why would you want my pheromones?"
***
TO BE honest, Sohee had nothing important to say to Sanha.
He just wanted to get even with Kim Heedo who asked to talk to Lee Junsu in private.
I know it’s childish, but whatever.
"Is there something you want to say to me, Sohee-ya?" Sanha asked, calling Sohee in a friendly way as if they were close. "Since we both want Lee Junsu and Kim Heedo to be as far away as possible from each other, then why don’t we form an alliance?"
An alliance, huh?
Well, Sohee would rather have Sanha as an ally than an enemy.
Jin Taejoon is already one of my biggest enemies, so I wouldn’t want to add Sanha to that list, too.
Having said that...
"There’s only one thing I need from you, Sanha-ssi."
"Oh, is that so?" Sanha asked, raising an eyebrow at him. "Are you going to ask me to keep Lee Junsu by my side no matter what? Or are you going to ask me about how I orchestrated this whole thing?"
"Sanha-ssi, shut your mouth."
"Excuse me?"
"I only need you to shut your mouth," Sohee said, grabbing Sanha by the collar and "whispering" his threat. "If you sell Kim Heedo’s information to the black market, I’ll make sure you and Lee Junsu will never be together again."
He thought was that threatening enough.
But Sanha just chuckled.
Tsk.
I guess an Omega threatening an Alpha looks funny to him.
"Sohee-ya, I really want to share my story with you," Sanha said, smiling. "Please lend me an ear."
