Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146: MYSTERY OF PHEROMONES

"CHAIRMAN, VICE Chairman Song, this is where the powder disguised among the condiments has come from."

Song Sihyuk grabbed the small bottle that Jung Han carefully placed on the desk.

The label only said ’Power Rut.’

What a horrible name.

Anyway, the label came with a warning that consuming too much powder was dangerous. That it should be sprinkled on food or mixed with liquid, but only in small amounts.

That was it.

"The name of the manufacturer isn’t even included on the label," Song Sihyuk said, scoffing. "But this type of labelling is familiar. Did the Cho Triplets make the powder?"

"That seems to be the case, sir," Jung Han answered his question politely. "According to our investigation, a prominent politician commissioned the Cho Triplets to create a medicine to solve his erectile dysfunction. Apparently, this politician can’t get it up even during his rut. That’s how the Cho Triplets ended up creating the ’Power Rut’ powder. Then, after that, they started selling the powder to the black market."

Yeah, the Cho Triplets had to sell it in the black market because there was no way that a powder capable of triggering an Alpha’s powerful rut would be approved legally.

But, of course, there was still a demand for such ’medicines.’

"Do we know if the people who tried to harm my son are related to the Cho Triplets?"

Tsk.

Song Sihyuk didn’t like how his Alpha father sounded 100% sure that he was the target.

I mean, the chance is high. But it’s still annoying.

"Unfortunately, we do not know that yet, Chairman Song," Jung Han answered while shaking his head. "But our team is currently figuring out the real identities of the Omega and the sous chef who ran away. Once we do, then we can figure out if they are related to the Cho Triplets or not."

"I see. Then I’m looking forward to the result of the investigation," his Alpha father said to Jung Han before looking at Song Sihyuk. "I’ll take care of the rest, son. Go and check on your family."

"Are you sure, Abeoji?"

His Alpha father nodded. "Yeah. This is my house, after all. It’s my job to make sure that something like this won’t happen again."

"Alright, then," Song Sihyuk said, getting up from his seat. "Don’t worry, Abeoji— I’ll bring home Appa safely."

"GARAM-SSI, you don’t have to decide now."

Oh.

Garam was relieved to hear that from Dr. Seong Kyungmin.

Honestly, I don’t know what to do yet.

"Garam-ssi, to be honest, it’s also fine if we just let Gunwoo be," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said. "Yes, it’s strange that your son can smell pheromones. And I don’t mean it in a bad way. In fact, his ability is fascinating."

Yeah, that was true.

Even adult Alphas and Omegas can’t detect hidden pheromones.

"As a doctor, I’d love to examine Gunwoo further," Dr. Seong Kyungmin admitted. "However, Gunwoo is the son of my friend. Hence, I won’t force you if you want to stop here. I can tell you that Gunwoo isn’t a Beta. In fact, there’s a high chance that he’ll awaken as an Alpha."

Right.

Even Garam could tell that Gunwoo would awaken as an Alpha.

My son is gentle, but somehow, he also resembles Sihyuk Hyung.

"I don’t think Gunwoo will awaken anytime soon, so I’d rather we focus on how to reduce sensitivity in his nose without affecting his ability to smell," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said. "There are nasal sprays that Alphas use to avoid getting a whiff of Omega pheromones. But most nasal sprays that do that are made for adults. We have to find something that is safe for children."

"Does something like that exist, Doc?"

"I’ll do my best to find one. But even if it doesn’t exist, don’t forget that Gunwoo’s father is Song Sihyuk."

"Huh?"

"SG Group owns SG Biologics— a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization," Dr. Seong Kyungmin explained. "They provide comprehensive services to the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the world. If you ask Song Sihyuk, he can easily ask his company to make a nasal spray that is safe for children."

Oh, right.

SG Group was known best for SG Telecom Co.— South Korea’s leading mobile carrier.

But a chaebol group wouldn’t be called a chaebol if it only had one company under its name.

So, they also owned a company called SG Biologics, huh?

I’m not interested in SG Group, so I never bothered searching up all the companies they own.

Garam just knew that Song Sihyuk was filthy rich.

"This is one of the few times I’m glad Sihyuk Hyung is Gunwoo’s father."

Dr. Seong Kyungmin chuckled, relaxing as he leaned against the chair. "Can we talk not as a doctor and a patient, but a hyung and a dongsaeng instead, Garam-ssi?"

"Of course, Doc."

"How have you been, Garam-ssi?"

"I’ve been well— until Sihyuk Hyung caught me," Garam said, sighing. "Now that Sihyuk Hyung knows we have a son, I don’t think he’ll ever let me go again."

Dr. Seong Kyungmin gave him a look full of pity.

Hyung liked me before because I was gutsy enough to make a deal with him.

I came out unscathed, but Hyung lost his memories.

Later, Garam would find out the meaning of ’the road to hell is paved with good intentions.’

That kid has always been a recluse.
