Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114: TYRANNY

"MAKE SURE Lim Garam won’t do anything stupid," Song Sihyuk said while putting on his leather gloves. "I already let him know that he can’t escape from here. But Lim Garam has a history of harming himself."

He was talking to two people only.

These two are the ones running this villa.

The first one was William— the half-American and half-Korean security head, an Alpha.

Then the second was Olivia, his Beta wife.

"So, you better keep an eye on him 24/7," Song Sihyuk said sternly. "Have someone monitor the CCTV all the time. Lim Garam had cut his own throat once. I’m sure he’d do it again, so make sure you won’t leave anything in the room that he can use as a weapon."

Honestly, even he knew it was impossible.

Everything and anything can be a weapon if you try hard enough, after all.

So, even though he didn’t want to put cameras inside the room, he still did it. After all, it was too risky to leave Lim Garam on his own devices.

Having said that, I still chose not to put cameras in the bathroom.

He also made sure that only male and female Omegas would monitor the CCTV and take care of Lim Garam personally.

Omegas are rarely attracted to each other, after all.

All the guards in and out of the villa were strong Alphas and Betas.

They’re not allowed near Lim Garam’s room, of course.

"Ignore all calls from my family," Song Sihyuk added. "Only follow my instructions."

William and Olivia answered at the same time: "Yes, sir."

"Make sure you force him to eat and take his medicines on time," Song Sihyuk said, pausing for a moment. "Lim Garam is soft-hearted. If you tell him you’ll get punished for every funny business he does, he’ll behave."

Because I know my wife more than anyone else.

IF I hurt myself, they’ll bring me to the hospital, won’t they?

That thought filled Garam’s thought ever since Song Sihyuk left.

Hence, when he gathered enough strength to walk without his legs shaking, he looked around— trying to find something that he could use to hurt himself.

His first thought was to break the windows.

But there were window bars inside, so it would be hard to break them.

The room was practically empty except for the bed, so he couldn’t find anything to use. Even the chair that Song Sihyuk had used earlier was gone now.

There was a walk-in closet, but there were only clothes there.

And the clothes were folded neatly.

No hangers in sight.

And when he went to the bathroom...

Unbelievable!

The bathtub had been turned into a cabinet, and it was even locked.

Did Sihyuk Hyung think I would drown myself in the bathtub?!

Well, to be fair, Garam considered that.

But I’ll die if they don’t find me in time, so never mind.

There were plenty of things he could use in the bathroom to harm himself anyway.

He could stab his eye with the toothbrush or drink all the shampoo there.

Yep, that might work.

Garam had already cut his own throat once, so he wouldn’t hesitate to do something less severe than that if it meant he’d regain his freedom.

Let’s do this.

He grabbed the toothbrush and was about to stab his eye with it when...

"For each time you hurt yourself, one of our family members will be punished, Lim Garam-nim."

Huh?

Garam was surprised when he just noticed a middle-aged woman, dressed in an all-black pantsuit, standing by the door. "Since when..."

"Since you started staring at the shampoo bottles as if you wanted to drink them, sir."

Oops.

This ahjumma is sharp.

The middle-aged woman then glanced at the toothbrush in Garam’s hand before looking at his face. "Are you trying to stab your face with that, sir?"

"My eye, to be precise."

"I see," the middle-aged woman said calmly while nodding. "Then please allow me to say goodbye to my son first. I want my son to see me and his father one last time."

"H-Huh?"

"Like I said earlier, Song Sihyuk-nim will punish our family members every time you try to harm yourself, sir," the ahjumma explained. "The severity of the punishment depends on the severity of your injury. So, if you’re going to lose an eye, then Song Sihyuk-nim will probably take both of my son’s eyes."

Garam accidentally dropped the toothbrush in his hand out of shock.

He wanted to claim that the ahjumma was just scaring him so he wouldn’t execute his plan, but...

The punishment thing sounds like something Song Sihyuk could and would do!

<"SIR, Lim Garam-nim tried to stab his eye with a toothbrush.">

<"Lim Garam-nim also planned to drink all the shampoo in the bathroom, but he has calmed down now. It doesn’t seem like Lim Garam-nim is still planning to harm himself after I explained what would happen if he gets hurt. But rest assured, we’ll still keep an eye on Lim Garam-nim, sir.">

I knew it— I knew the brat would try to harm himself as soon as he recovered.

Thank goodness my wife has a big heart.

<"Alright. Keep me posted.">

But Uncle Sangwook will still take a huge loss if he gets sent to prison, so this punishment should suffice for now.

So, I shouldn’t cross the line— or else I’ll piss off Grandfather.
