Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55: LITTLE SHAMAN

TSK.

Song Sihyuk puffed smoke out of his mouth while watching Lim Garam take pictures with the pastry shop’s staff members.

Even though his adorable wife wore a hat and a face mask, his fans still recognized him.

I guess it’s the right decision not to go inside the store with Lim Garam.

Song Sihyuk made an excuse and said he needed a smoke break, so he went to the smoking area of the shop.

Fortunately, he could see the inside of the store from there.

And he wasn’t that worried either, since Shin Geon was with Lim Garam.

Although his adorable wife was in the same car as him, it didn’t mean they had no other bodyguards aside from Jung Han.

They had at least three cars in their entourage, and one of them belonged to Shin Geon.

Tsk.

Song Sihyuk clicked his tongue when one of the female staff members touched Lim Garam by the shoulder.

All the staff members were Betas, but he was still annoyed.

How did those people even recognize my wife in disguise?

But maybe he shouldn’t be surprised.

The convenience store across the pastry shop had a standee of Lim Garam and his group members since the group was the brand models for that chain. So, the staff members probably memorized every part of Lim Garam’s face because they saw his standee every single day.

My wife will only get more popular once his solo activities start.

Tsk.

"President Song, I’ve just talked to Lee Chan Hyung-nim," Jun Han reported to him after talking to Lee Chan on the phone. "He said they’re actually on their way to your penthouse, sir. They left the Master and the Madam’s house thirty minutes ago."

Song Sihyuk was pretty shocked.

Garam and I left the hospital thirty minutes ago...

But he made the lie about Mija wanting to meet Lim Garam in the car earlier.

That was why he was thinking about how else to distract Lim Garam to buy more time.

After all, it takes forty-five minutes to go to my penthouse from my parents’ house.

But since Lee Chan and Mija left his parents’ house thirty minutes ago, he didn’t have to stall anymore.

It takes less than fifteen minutes to get to my house from here.

Yeah, Lim Garam wanted that particular store, so they went out of their way to find it.

Song Sihyuk didn’t protest since they needed to buy time anyway.

And it was a good decision.

Lim Garam wasn’t done picking pastries yet, so Lee Chan and Mija would probably arrive at the penthouse before them.

Anyway, all of this only meant one thing.

"The child probably saw a vision," Song Sihyuk said, taking his last puff of the cigarette stick between his fingers. "Damn, that child is really legit."

Jung Han nodded in agreement. "I actually got goosebumps when Lee Chan Hyung-nim said that they were already on the way to your apartment, sir."

"But why did that bastard not call me to inform me that they’re headed to my place?"

"Apparently, Mija-nim stopped Lee Chan Hyung-nim from calling you, sir. When Vice Chairman Song heard that, he ordered Lee Chan Hyung-nim to follow Mija-nim’s request."

The ’Vice Chairman Song’ would be Song Sihyuk’s father, of course.

Abeoji is spoiling that little shaman.

"DO YOU want to visit another store?"

"No, I’m satisfied with my ’haul,’ Hyung," Garam said while removing his cap and face mask. Song Sihyuk was already waiting for him in the car when he finished buying pastries. And, now, they were on their way home. "The staff members are so happy because I swept their store clean."

"I don’t think that’s the reason those people were happy, though," Song Sihyuk said, casually placing his hand on Garam’s thigh as if that was the most natural thing to do in the world. "Those people are your fans, babe. I saw how happy they looked when you were talking to them."

"Why do you look and sound pissed, Hyung? Aren’t you happy that I’m famous? You did well investing in me."

"I’m not happy that the entire country knows my wife’s face."

"Aigoo. I’m not that famous yet, Hyung. Only people who are into K-pop know me. You can only say that the entire country knows me once the grandpas and grandmas already recognize me and my group."

Song Sihyuk just scoffed.

Garam quickly changed the topic before the Alpha could have the chance to throw a tantrum. "Hyung, I think my nose has gotten better. Geon Hyung and Han-ssi are both Alphas, right? I don’t feel sick around them anymore."

"Of course, you wouldn’t. I ordered all Alphas among our employees to take an inhibitor starting today."

"Inhibitor... to mask their scent?"

"Yes."

Garam let out a gasp. "Hyung, why would you inconvenience them like that?"

"Why would you worry about that? We pay them generously to do what we want. Plus, it’s only normal for Alphas and Omegas to take inhibitors when working."

He couldn’t say anything back because his contract husband was right.

Almost all the Omegas I know take inhibitors, too.

"Garam-ah, don’t feel burdened by trivial things like this," Song Sihyuk said, squeezing Garam’s thigh lightly. "As my wife, you have to get used to being a part of this country’s top 0.01%."

’Top 0.01%’ and not just ’top 1%?

That actually gave Garam the chills.

The Alpha didn’t sound like he was just boasting— he was simply stating the truth.

And it was not hard to believe because SG Group was a huge conglomerate, only second to the Ilsung Group.

I can’t wrap my head around how rich Sihyuk Hyung is.

"Sihyuk Hyung, your family’s wealth scares me sometimes," Garam said awkwardly. "No one has become a billionaire without doing bad things, after all."

***

Let’s not talk about Sihyuk Hyung’s billionaire status again.

Let’s also ignore that this penthouse is a very symbol of my husband’s wealth.

She still looks gloomy, though.

But all I got was an evil stepbrother.

Garam clutched his chest tight because of Mija’s aegyo¹.

As expected, a child’s smile can heal an adult’s weary heart.

***

My adorable wife is in the kitchen, but it’s better safe than sorry.

This kid is really creepy.

"What the fuck is a ’half-Omega?’" Song Sihyuk said, still speaking in a hushed voice. Hence, he had to hide his irritation. "Lim Garam is an Omega."

This kid really knows everything.
