Absolute Advantage - Chapter 19.1

In other words, Marie was a very demanding woman.

It was not enough to hog the seat of his late mother, so she even carried his father’s child without grasping the situation at hand.

In addition, it was hard to tell how their older brother, who was in puberty at the time, lived his life.

The JS group would have already fallen into her grasp if she had been still alive. When Dong-min imagined that, he had goosebumps.

“By the way, does Hyung remember Marie?”

“What?”

“That Marie. Our eldest brother isn’t married.”

The eldest had a fiancee. However, as Dong-min said, the eldest son was unmarried and had only been in a common relationship for several years.

“Well, Adam is getting married soon. His bride looks like her mother, so she must’ve looked good in a wedding dress.”

Nam clicked his tongue.

“Joo Dongmin. If you really want to get married, you should filter out all the girls you have and keep just one.”

“Hey, I want a couple of lovers, not a little sister-in-law.”

Dongmin hit back mischievously.

“I mean, the woman sitting in the house should be clean and smart. Don’t complicate the succession problem by having kids here and there. Huh?”

“Yes, I’ll keep that in mind.”

Dongmin shook his head. Then he even asked for advice, asking who was the best among the women he had.

‘Pathetic fellow.’

Nam saw the expression Dong-min made and clicked his tongue.

Dongmin had a big misunderstanding.

It wasn’t that the vice-chairman didn’t want to get married; it was that he couldn’t.

As he was someone of a young age that was about to get married, President Joo was the one who prevented him from getting married.

“A guy who can’t even run a company properly will take care of his family? Make a difference at work first! Give me the results!”

When he had just taken the vice-chairman’s seat, the decree Chairman Joo issued was still clear in his mind.

It was a sign that Chairman Joo was out of the spotlight because he was not married even though he was over 40.

The chairman has always disapproved of his three sons. In particular, the eldest son, the vice-chairman, could not satisfy his father no matter how hard he tried.

He was attached to his father even though he was treated like shit because he would be like a duck in a river if he was abandoned.

He’s old enough to make money, he didn’t have a family, and he didn’t have any children. It was just a matter of fact.

For Alpha, who values social status above all else, every day would be hell itself.

He had no choice but to hold out and become Chairman of JS Group or die.

Nam knew that he would step on his brother’s bad side if he slipped. So he didn’t dare to talk about marriage.

He openly revealed his ambition to beat his eldest son if he got married. It was also a challenge to his authority.

In the JS group, even sowing seeds had to be approved by the chairman. However, the brothers liked to use their lower limbs, so dozens of children were aborted before they were born.

Their father, Joo Pil-tae, was also a terrifying person. No matter how much he sees his child as his own property, he was so terrible that he himself wondered if he was really a parent.

‘In the worst case, a great man will throw you off and have control over the group.’

But it couldn’t be Adam.

Chairman Joo regarded Omegas as inferior.

This was especially the case with Omega men.

For Chairman Joo, Omegas were just a tool for reproduction.

Chairman Joo was dissatisfied with the three brothers because his “Alpha” sons, who inherited his blood, fell far short of his standard.

Considering this situation, South Korea was shocked in many ways by his decision to include Omega Adam in the JS group.

For the first time, the eldest brother decided against his father’s values, and he thought that the older brother who walked to hell on his own was crazy.

‘If he dies, then I’ll take over  him.…’

Nam adjusted his glasses and strengthened his resolve.

After taking a shower home, Hae-won changed into new clothes and returned to work. She had a late lunch, but there was nothing to do because she had already finished today’s work all night.

When she opened the door of the representative room like that, a translucent bag of small cookies was on the desk. On the outside, there was a post-it with the phrase “Cheer up, Miss!”

The round handwriting was in purple.

‘Is this the store we talked about last time?’
