AWKWARD SILENCE.
Garam couldn’t look Song Sihyuk, who was sitting on the chair next to the bed, in the eye.
After the Alpha verbally abused Lee Taeho’s mother, the old woman (and her bodyguards) left the VIP Room in tears.
Then Song Sihyuk asked his own bodyguards to leave.
Yes, including Jung Han.
So, only the two of us are in the room at the moment.
"Lee Taeho is still alive— unfortunately."
Garam lifted his head and gathered the courage in his heart to ask: "Did you really slit his throat?"
"Yeah, I did," Song Sihyuk admitted casually. "He survived after you attacked him since his allergic reaction was taken care of immediately. So, I made sure that he’d suffer more after he touched what was mine."
What did Lee Taeho touch that belonged to Song Sihyuk... oh.
"I don’t belong to you, Hyung."
"Don’t fret the details, kid."
Garam just frowned because he didn’t want to argue anymore.
I’m going to lose the argument anymore since I owe this bastard a huge amount of money.
"Anyway, Lee Taeho is still alive, so don’t worry about him anymore. His vocal cord is damaged permanently, though."
Garam gasped out loud. "What..."
"Why are you shocked? It could have happened to you if you slit your throat a little deeper."
Oh, right.
Garam touched his neck lightly.
The scar was still there, but thankfully, the doctor said it would fade soon.
I almost lost my voice.
"Let’s stop talking about Lee Taeho," Song Sihyuk said, scoffing. "I don’t like it when you think about other men." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"Hyung, why are you downplaying this?" Garam complained lightly. "What if the HMG Group retaliates for this?"
"It has already been taken care of."
"How?"
"You don’t need to know, kid."
"I have the right to know because I’m the victim here."
"Unfortunately, you can’t sue Lee Taeho and the other bastards who tried to rape you."
"I already know that," Garam said, clenching his hands. "I don’t have the means to sue them anyway."
"I’ve already punished them for you."
"How did you punish them?"
"I’ll tell you after I listen to your PowerPoint Presentation."
"Hyung, this isn’t the time for that," Garam said, slightly frustrated. "I want to know how you cleaned up after my mess."
"Like I said, I’ll tell you after I listen to your PowerPoint Presentation," Song Sihyuk said, getting up. "Call me when you’re ready to present, kid."
"Okay, Hyung."
Ice— lots of it.
***
I don’t want to see my stepmother and stepbrother yet.
Then I’ll ask Sihyuk Hyung what happened to Minwoo Hyung.
It was Song Sihyuk who provided those branded clothes, of course.
I can tell that I’m wearing millions of won.
