Married For Now-Chapter 168: DANGEROUS EX

"WHY DOES that kid have to study in a public library anyway?" Kim Heedo asked, knitting his eyebrows. "We have a whole library at home. Why didn’t you just invite Sohee Hyung’s half-brother to study with you?"

That was his question to Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae.

He was in the passenger seat while the twins were in the backseat.

Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae were babysitting Garam Hyung-nim’s baby earlier, but the twins got bored when the baby fell asleep.

Hence, the twins insisted that they would accompany Heedo.

Anyway...

Shin Kang was still recovering, so Kang Sul remained his driver-slash-bodyguard.

"Do you really think we didn’t invite Go Gunjoon to study with us, Oppa?" Kim Haewon scoffed while taking selfies on her phone. "Of course, we did. But Go Gunjoon politely declined."

"We also volunteered to study with him in the public library that he goes to, but Haewon and I only caused a commotion," Kim Hanhae added. "So, we never went to the public library again to accompany Go Gunjoon. The same thing happens when we go to a café or anywhere, actually."

"Why?" Heedo asked, confused. "Why are you causing commotion wherever you go?"

"Oppa, Hanhae and I are famous online celebrities."

"Did you reveal that you’re the grandchildren of the Ilsung Group?"

"Of course not, Hyung. We have the same fabricated background as you do," Kim Hanhae said while shaking his head. "Haewon and I just got famous on social media because we look good. And we’re both Alphas, at that."

"Our parents allowed you two to flaunt your wealth on social media?"

"We don’t flaunt our wealth, Oppa. Hanhae and I aren’t stupid. The PR Team checks our posts first before we upload them on the internet."

"Good," Heedo said while nodding, and then he changed the topic. He had no intention of meddling with the twin siblings’ private life. And it looked like the two had everything under control anyway. "So, are you saying that whenever Go Gunjoon goes to the library, that Jung Byeol comes and bothers him?"

"Yes, Oppa," Kim Haewon said, and his sister was now fixing her hair while Kim Hanhae held the compact mirror for her. "The bodyguards can’t enter the library, and Go Gunjoon doesn’t want them there since he doesn’t want to get kicked out in case the bodyguards need to apprehend Jung Byeol."

"But it’s stupid not to use the protection we provided for him."

"Go Gunjoon only refuses the bodyguards’ protection when he’s in the library, Hyung," Kim Hanhae explained. "He feels safe because Ahn Yujae Hyung accompanies him."

Tsk.

Heedo frowned when he heard the familiar name.

Ahn Yujae.

Sohee Hyung’s ex-boyfriend.

Last night, Heedo already checked Ahn Yujae’s profile.

Yes, I ran a background check on him.

He didn’t find anything suspicious, but that only annoyed him even more.

Ahn Yujae is good-looking, his family is loaded, and he’s also a top student. He’s also good at sports, and he’s known for having a good personality.

Most of all, Ahn Yujae was an Alpha.

Dammit.

Heedo didn’t want to feel threatened because he had no reason to feel that way, but he really couldn’t help it.

Why am I being pathetic?

"Young Masters, Young Lady, we’re here."

Heedo got out of the car first.

The twins followed behind him.

To be honest, he didn’t need Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae to point out Ahn Yujae to him.

The damned Alpha stood out because of his good looks and tall stature.

I hope Sohee Hyung doesn’t interact with that person anymore.

Because Ahn Yujae looked like a homewrecker— no, stop with the bad thoughts.

"Heedo Hyung-nim."

Hmm?

The smaller guy next to Ahn Yujae waved at Kim Heedo in a friendly manner.

Ah, the kid didn’t know that Heedo lost his memories.

But if he’s acting like this to me, then maybe we’re close?

Heh.

For some reason, Heedo felt better after he realized that he was somehow close to his brother-in-law.

And Go Gunjoon only needs one brother-in-law, so...

"Thank you for keeping my brother-in-law safe, Ahn Yujae-ssi," Heedo said to Ahn Yujae after he and the twins joined Go Gunjoon and Ahn Yujae at their table. Of course, he talked as softly as possible as to not disturb the other students there. "You may leave now."

"Oh," Ahn Yujae said as if he was disappointed. "Is Sohee not coming?"

’Sohee?’

Heedo knew that Park Sohee and Ahn Yujae were the same age, so it was only normal if Ahn Yujae called Park Sohee’s name casually.

But it still didn’t sit right with him.

In fact, he was pissed.

Heedo knew that his pheromones were leaking because he was upset.

Moreover, the twins and Ahn Yujae all scrunched up their noses when his pheromones leaked out.

Alphas hate the strong scent of Dominant Alphas, after all.

But Heedo didn’t care because he only cared about one thing at the moment.

Why is this bastard disappointed that Sohee Hyung won’t be here?

Hah!

I knew it— this Alpha bastard is being nice to Go Gunjoon because he has a hidden agenda!

And the "agenda" was definitely Park Heedo.

Heedo clenched his hands tight and was about to lash out when...

"Hyung-nim, what’s wrong with your scent?" Go Gunjoon asked while covering his nose and mouth with a handkerchief. "It’s making me dizzy."

Huh?

Heedo, the twins, and even Ahn Yujae all turned to Go Gunjoon with a shocked look on their faces.

There was a reason why they reacted that way.

"Go Gunjoon, you’re a Beta," Heedo said. Well, he didn’t remember anything about Go Gunjoon. But he read the kid’s profile last night because he wasn’t sure if he should tell him that he lost his memories or not. In short, he wanted to act like he knew the kid. "How can you smell my pheromones when Betas don’t have that ability?"

I know that my pheromones as a Dominant Alpha are strong, but there’s no way a Beta would be affected by my scent.

Unless...

"Argh, my head..."

Go Gunjoon complained about a migraine that he didn’t have...

... and then the poor kid suddenly fainted.

"GUNJOON-YA!"

That loud, worried voice didn’t come from Heedo or anyone from their table.

But he instantly recognized that face because it was one of the profiles that he studied last night.

That must be Jung Byeol— the Omega who keeps bothering my brother-in-law.

SOHEE smiled while watching Lim Garam tuck Baby Gunwoo in bed.

The toddler fell asleep after playing with Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae.

After that, the twins got bored because they had nothing to do anymore.

Hence, Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae insisted to come with Kim Heedo. That was why the three siblings left the house together.

I think they’re keeping a secret from me.

"Sohee-ya," Lim Garam said in a calm but serious tone after they continued their little tea time. They were in the lounge area of the spacious and posh-looking guest room while having tea, and they could see the bed from their spot. "Can I talk about Lee Junsu? I don’t want you to be stressed, but I think you have to know something."

Oh.

"To be honest, I don’t want to hear about Lee Junsu’s business," Sohee said, laughing quite bitterly. "But I’m sure you wouldn’t bring him up for nothing, Hyung-nim. I think I’ll get more stressed for not knowing, so please spill the beans."

Lim Garam nodded his head thoughtfully before opening his mouth. "Sihyuk Hyung is acting strange, Sohee-ya. He sent his subordinates to keep an eye on Hong Sera."

"Is he picking a fight with the Daesung Group?"

"That’s what I told him, too. But he said he wasn’t necessarily keeping an eye on Hong Sera. Apparently, he’s keeping an eye on the "thing" that Hong Sera took home with her."

"What did Hong Sera take home... oh."

Sohee knew how to read between the lines.

Hence, he immediately connected the dots.

As I said earlier, Garam Hyung-nim wouldn’t have mentioned Lee Junsu for nothing.

"But why is Song Sihyuk-ssi suddenly interested in Lee Junsu?"

"Sihyuk Hyung wants to kill Lee Junsu, I think."

Sohee almost choked on his tea because of how Lim Garam said that so casually. "Why would your husband want to kill Lee Junsu all of a sudden, Hyung-nim?"

"I’m not sure, but I read some documents on Sihyuk Hyung’s table while he wasn’t looking," Lim Garam said, sipping his tea before he dropped another bombshell. "If my deduction is correct, then Lee Junsu has something to do with my son’s kidnapping."

Oh.

Oh, no.

Only one thought entered Sohee’s mind then.

Lee Junsu, you crazy bitch.

***

KIM HEEDO grabbed that Omega kid called Jung Byeol by the collar.

He and the twins had already brought Go Gunjoon to the hospital (leaving Ahn Yujae in the library).

But this brave Omega kid followed them.

And I allowed this kid to be this close because I wanted to confront him.

"Why do you keep bothering my brother-in-law?" Heedo asked, his voice almost a growl. "Do you have something to do with him fainting?"

"No, I have nothing to do with that," Jung Byeol said while shaking his head firmly. "Hyung, I’m just here to deliver some important news to Sanha Hyung."

Sanha?

Heedo let go of the kid’s collar when he heard the familiar name.

It’s Lee Junsu’s lover.

Now he was getting confused.

This kid’s profile says that he’s related to Sanha, and that Sanha’s real name is Jin Taeweook.

But who was that Jin Taewook again?

"I can’t contact Sanha Hyung, so I thought Sohee Hyung could help me," Jung Byeol said while fixing his collar. "Actually, you need to hear the news, too."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Jin Taejoon Hyung met up with Song Sihyuk-ssi."

"Sihyuk Hyung-nim?" Heedo asked, even more confused now. "But why?"

"How would I know that, Hyung?" Jung Byeol asked while shaking his head. "But according to the spy that we planted in prison, Song Sihyuk-ssi left angry— like he wanted to kill someone with his bare hands."
