Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7: KILL OR BE KILLED

LEE TAEHO of the HMG Group?

Song Sihyuk scoffed. "The bastard of HMG Group is acting up at his big age?"

"Y-Young Master, please be careful," Jung Han, his secretary-slash-right-hand man, said in a hush. "Even though Lee Taeho-nim is an illegitimate child of HMG Group’s Chairman Lee, he’s still the chairman’s favorite son."

"Like I care. Isn’t the HMG Group invited to this party?"

As far as Song Sihyuk knew, all the chaebols— the real ones— were invited there.

And no family in their right mind would reject an invitation from the Ilsung Group.

"Yes, sir," Jung Han said politely. "Chairman Lee came with his legal family to greet Ilsung Group’s Young Master Kim Heedo-nim. And Lee Taeho-nim was with them."

"Was?"

"I saw Lee Taeho-nim leave the party just a few minutes ago."

"Find him," Song Sihyuk said sternly. "Quickly."

Jung Han bowed politely. "Yes, sir."

When his secretary left, Song Sihyuk slipped away from the crowd until he found an empty balcony.

There, he tried calling Lim Garam’s phone.

But his call didn’t connect.

Lim Garam either turned his phone off or someone else did it for him.

Haaah.

Song Sihyuk could already tell that this entire thing was orchestrated by Seo Minwoo.

That bastard kept pestering him during the holidays.

But he was busy sucking up to his folks then, so he ignored Seo Minwoo’s calls and messages.

That bastard might have gotten impatient.

Tsk.

"Selling his stepbrother for money, huh?" Song Sihyuk whispered to himself while shaking his head. "I’m glad my dad made sure I’ll remain an only child."

So, all I have to do is get rid of my uncles and cousins in the succession war.

***

I THOUGHT all Alphas are supposed to be more handsome and beautiful than the average folks.

That was what Garam, a Beta, believed all along.

To be fair, all the Alphas that he had met were handsome and beautiful.

But this one... not so much.

He was talking about Lee Taeho of the HMG Group.

Garam was dragged by Seo Minwoo to a fancy suite in a 5-star hotel.

There, he met not only Lee Taeho— but three other Alphas as well.

As soon as he set foot in that hotel suite, he had already accepted his fate.

My stepbrother really sold me to these Alphas.

"Minwoo didn’t lie, huh?" Lee Taeho said, looking at Garam from head to toe— obviously already stripping him in his head. "You’re handsome for a Beta, Garam-ssi."

I know, right? I actually look more an Alpha than you do.

After all, Lee Taeho looked like your average ahjussi.

Garam was sure Lee Taeho was dressed in luxury items from head to toe, but the man still looked average in every sense of the word.

Even though Lee Taeho was sitting on a fancy sofa acting cool, it didn’t have any effect.

This old man still doesn’t give off Alpha vibes.

Of course, he didn’t say that out loud.

Heck, he even controlled his expressions.

Garam smiled— the kind of smile that could make anyone swoon, and it was something that he learned while being an idol trainee. "Hello, sir. My name is Lim Garam. I’m Minwoo Hyung’s younger brother."

He could tell that his ’fanservice smile’ worked because Lee Taeho looked starstruck for a moment.

And it didn’t only work on Lee Taeho.

Even the other three Alphas standing behind the chaebol looked smitten.

At least, those three Alphas look handsome— but they’re probably not as rich as Lee Taeho if they’re acting like his servants.

The population is dominated by Betas. It’s actually the Alphas and the Omegas who belong to the minority. And, yet, these Alphas act like they own the world.

But that doesn’t mean Betas are way inferior to them.

What a scumbag.
