"YOU’LL MAKE sure that Song Sihyuk won’t come crawling back to me? What are you going to do? Tell him everything that we’ve talked about?"
Garam remained calm even though it was obvious that Cho Dongpyo was mocking him. "Do you think I wouldn’t?"
"To be honest, I don’t care whether you tell Song Sihyuk or not. I already know that he suspects me anyway," Cho Dongpyo said nonchalantly. "Plus, what’s the point of snitching on Song Sihyuk if you’re going to leave him anyway?"
"Well, Sihyuk Hyung is the type of person who blames other people instead of taking accountability. I want Sihyuk Hyung to lash out at you and Uncle Sangwook."
"We’re not your enemies here, Garam-ssi. We practically helped you see your husband’s true color."
"You didn’t do it out of pity— you just want to hurt Sihyuk Hyung at my expense. And that’s the part I hate."
"It’s your fault for marrying Song Sihyuk even though you knew he was a bad person."
Garam just smiled bitterly, and then he picked up his phone.
He was done recording the conversation anyway.
Yes— he recorded everything.
"I hope you can say that in Sihyuk Hyung’s face because I just sent him the recording of our conversation."
That was a bluff.
It was true that Garam had recorded their conversation, but he hadn’t sent it to Song Sihyuk yet.
After all, I don’t want Sihyuk Hyung to hurry back home.
His lie seemed to have worked, though.
After all, Cho Dongpyo looked shaken.
"Excuse me?"
"I recorded our conversation," Garam said, lifting his head to look at Cho Dongpyo’s shocked face. "I also recorded our phone conversation earlier. I just hope Uncle Sangwook is prepared to face Sihyuk Hyung’s wrath."
"You look like a pushover, but you’re pretty crazy, huh?"
"Do you think a sane person would have married someone like Sihyuk Hyung?"
Cho Dongpyo wasn’t able to say anything against that.
"Sihyuk Hyung told me that you wanted his pheromones."
Cho Dongpyo flinched, obviously shocked by what Garam said. "Song Sihyuk told you that?"
"Yes, Hyung did. He loves me more than you expect, Cho Dongpyo-ssi."
This time, the beautiful Omega wasn’t able to say anything.
"You said you wanted me to dump Sihyuk Hyung so Sihyuk Hyung would return to his bad habits of making experiments with you, right?" Garam said, smirking. "Well, I’ll make sure Sihyuk Hyung would hate you to the point that he would rather kill you than join your experiments again."
Cho Dongpyo knitted his eyebrows. "What do you mean—"
Garam grabbed the glass on the table and smashed it on the floor.
Of course, Cho Dongpyo was startled.
But he wasn’t done yet.
Garam grabbed a broken shard and used it to cut his cheek.
He made sure that the cut wouldn’t be deep, but it still stung.
It hurts...
"Lim Garam, what do you think you’re doing?!"
Cho Dongpyo tried to grab Garam as if to snatch the broken shard from him, but he wasn’t able to do it because Shin Geon had already grabbed Cho Donpyo and twisted the beautiful Omega’s hands behind his back.
"Unhand me, you bastard!"
Garam dropped the broken shard when he heard heavy footsteps coming their way.
Of course, everything was going according to plan.
He asked his Lee Wonjae earlier to turn off all the CCTV on that floor.
And I also asked Geon Hyung not to stop me from what I’m planning to do.
This was the result.
"Garam-ah!"
Admittedly, Garam felt bad when he saw how worried Lee Wonjae looked when he saw his bleeding face.
I didn’t tell my Omega father-in-law about my plan to hurt myself.
"Appa..."
Lee Wonjae’s face turned pale while looking at his injury, and then he glared at Cho Dongpyo.
Naturally, Garam’s Omega father-in-law would think that it was Cho Dongpyo who did that to him.
I have no intention of correcting Appa.
"How dare you do this to my son-in-law, Cho Dongpyo?" Lee Wonjae asked coldly. "Do you think your family could protect you forever."
"I didn’t hurt Lim Garam, sir," Cho Dongpyo said sternly. "Your crazy son-in-law did that to himself."
Lee Wonjae just looked at Cho Dongpyo as if Cho Dongpyo had gone crazy.
Garam felt even more guilty knowing that his Omega father-in-law had complete faith in him.
I’m both grateful and guilty.
"Sir, please escort Lim Garam-nim to the infirmary first," Shin Geon said calmly as if to change the subject. "Lim Garam-nim’s cut looks pretty deep."
Thank you, Geon Hyung.
***


Because I know my father-in-law will understand me.
I’m not sure if I want Appa to know the truth.
I won’t be surprised or hurt if Appa chooses to side with Sihyuk Hyung this time.
Whether I want to admit it or not, I’m already attached to my Omega father-in-law.
