Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha-Chapter 201: THE LOVE ONE DESERVES

GARAM hated himself for crying just because the idea of Song Sihyuk sleeping with Cho Dongpyo upset him so much.

And he shouldn’t be feeling that way.

First of all, when did he forgive Song Sihyuk for all the hurtful things he did to him before?

I should still be hating this man.

Second, the two of them were already divorced.

It’s none of my business whether he sleeps with someone else or not.

Third, they agreed to co-parent Gunwoo, so he was being civil to the Alpha.

I shouldn’t care about Hyung’s sex life. As long as he’s a good father to Gunwoo, that’s all that matters.

Yes, that was how it was supposed to be.

However...

"You keep acting like you’re going to die without me, but this is already the second time you ghosted me," Garam complained. Yes, he was cringing badly because of how clingy and desperate he sounded. But he couldn’t stop running his mouth. "Maybe it’s Cho Dongpyo whom you can’t live without, Song Sihyuk-ssi. After all, you keep meeting up with that bastard behind my back despite my warnings."

"Garam-ah, please let me explain," Song Sihyuk said, obviously panicking. "I’m just trying to help Cho Dongpyo get pregnant—"

"So, you really slept with that bastard?!"

"No! I just donated my pheromones and he used them to make a perfume!"

Song Sihyuk wasn’t yelling at Garam.

It was obvious that he only raised his voice because he was desperate to be heard.

Hence, Garam wasn’t scared.

In fact, he even yelled at the Alpha louder.

"I told you to stop donating your pheromones to Cho Dongpyo!" This time, Garam couldn’t help but be a little violent. He got up from his seat and started smacking Song Sihyuk on the back and shoulders. Yes, his hands and wrists hurt because the Alpha’s body was solid. But he didn’t stop because he was really upset. "Why would you do that when you’re already dying because of your low pheromone level?!"

"I’m not dying, Garam-ah—"

"Stop talking back to me!"

And then it happened.

Garam clenched his fist in annoyance— forgetting that he was in the middle of smacking Song Sihyuk’s back.

As a result, he ended up punching the Alpha in the face when he looked up at him.

He felt his knuckles connect to Song Sihyuk’s tall nose...

... causing it to bleed instantly.

Garam gasped, feeling guilty because he didn’t mean to be that violent. "I’m sorry, Hyung..."

"I’m fine, Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk said, casually wiping the nose spilling from his nose with the back of his hand. "More importantly, are your hands okay?"

"Huh?"

Song Sihyuk gently held Garam’s hands, inspecting them, and frowning when he noticed that Garam’s knuckles had turned reddish from beating him up. "You have such frail hands, Garam-ah. The next time you want to hurt me, just grab a golf club and hit me with it. Or throw things at me. Don’t use your hands since I don’t want you getting hurt."

Haaah.

Garam couldn’t believe it.

Song Sihyuk’s nose hadn’t stopped bleeding, and yet the Alpha was only focused on his hands.

Hyung looks upset that I’m hurt, even though I just punched him.

Ah, dammit.

Yes, it was Song Sihyuk who destroyed Garam’s career because this Alpha bastard wanted him to keep him to himself.

Yes, it was creepy how Song Sihyuk wanted to hide him from the world.

Yes, Song Sihyuk was a crazy bastard.

Most of all, Garam knew that if he accepted this Alpha bastard in his life again, they would only continue to have a toxic relationship.

I can already see it.

A relationship where Song Sihyuk would shower Garam with love and all the fancy things in the world while keep him in a golden cage.

A relationship where the Alpha would devour him until he owned every part of his Omega.

A suffocating relationship, to say the least.

Garam knew that very well, and yet...

"Hyung, you have no intention to let me go, right?"

Song Sihyuk flinched, and then he raised his head to meet Garam’s eyes.

Ah.

Even without saying a word, the Alpha’s answer was clear in his eyes— and the answer was ’no.’

"I’m sorry, Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk said in a serious tone. "I just love you so much that I can’t let you go. Even if you end up hating me more than you already do, I still won’t leave you alone. I’ll even use Gunwoo to keep you close to me."

What an awful thing to say.

But maybe Garam had already been desensitized because that didn’t bother him anymore.

Ah, he was probably already used to the Alpha bastard’s rotten personality.

Maybe it’s true that you deserve the love you tolerate.

"I guess there’s something wrong with me, too."

"That’s not true, Lim Garam," Song Sihyuk said firmly. "You’re perfect just the way you are."

How cringey.

But I’m also used to it by now. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Sihyuk Hyung, I can’t promise that I can love you the way you love me."

"You don’t have to," Song Sihyuk said while shaking his head. Clearly, the Alpha already knew where that conversation was headed to. "I know that you love me, Garam-ah. But I can’t blame you for loving me less than I love you because of my bad personality."

"At least, you’re aware that you’re a scumbag."

Song Sihyuk smirked. "Garam-ah, you met as a bad adult. People like me don’t really change that much. But, I promise you— I won’t hurt you the way I did in the past."

"You can never hurt me that way again since I’ve already lost my career."

"I’m sorry."

"I’ll tolerate you, Sihyuk Hyung."

"Huh?"

"I’ll accept you in my life again, but don’t expect me to love you the way you love me."

It wasn’t an easy decision for Garam, but it wasn’t like he completely hated Song Sihyuk’s existence.

I mean, I depend on Hyung for the most part because of his money and power.

All for Gunwoo’s sake, of course.

Song Sihyuk’s face beamed, clearly happy with Garam’s decision. "That’s fine with me, Garam-ah. My love is enough for the two of us."

"Stop being so corny, Hyung."

"Does this mean you’re my wife again?"

"Not until you explain what’s your deal with Cho Dongpyo," Garam said firmly, grabbing Song Sihyuk by the collar. "And make sure this is the last time you’re ghosting me, or else I’ll kill you and turn you into a real ghost."

Song Sihyuk chuckled. "Alright, I get it," he said, raising his arms in surrender. "Then allow me to explain properly, Garam-ah."
