Absolute Advantage - Chapter 54.2

“There was one kid who was so annoying as to follow me when I was a kid.”

“?”

“A Korean like me.”

Adam added with a grin.

“Local Koreans in the Philippine slums, that’s quite unusual.”

“Right?”

He knew Adam grew up as an orphan in the slums but this was the first time he heard the details.

Why are you bringing up that all of a sudden?

Li Yu-yen became quite nervous.

“At that time, neither of us had secondary sexual characteristics, and especially the child didn’t even develop any traits yet. Still, I felt it instinctively.”

Adam’s eyes sank coolly.

Li Yuan’s spine cooled, and he clenched his fists. Adam’s voice fell heavily.

“She’s an omega.”

“……so what’s wrong?”

Li Yu-yen asked carefully, looking at Adam’s countenance. Adam gently closed his eyes for a moment, as if to trace the memory of the past. Soon the closed eyelids slowly came up.

“She’s dead.”

“?!”

“In the end, I couldn’t find her body, so I believed she was dead and buried her in my heart.”

Li Yu-yen remembered Adam muttering in the car and sighed quietly.

No way.

That’s Seo Hae-won?

What a ridiculous coincidence, no, fate.

“Li Yuyen. When you said something about a fated mate, I didn’t think much.”

Adam stared into the air with deep eyes.

“Yes. If Seo Hae-won is an Alpha, it is understandable that I was born as a rare Alpha. She was destined to be an Omega anyway, she was that girl.”

“A-Are you serious?”

Li Yu-yen stammered with embarrassment.

This man, the rare Alpha, was giving legitimacy to think and transform Alpha Haewon into an Omega by using his special trait.

Citing these ridiculous reasons.

“The fateful mates I was talking about is the relationship between Alpha and Omega. I’m not talking about two of the same alpha, you know.”

Li Yuyen calmly persuaded Adam.

“More than anything else, girls born through artificial insemination are more likely to develop into an alpha in the first place. The fact that Seo Hae-won is alpha is not fate, but a product of modern medicine.”

“So what?”

Perhaps he had listened to Li Yu-yen, but Adam asked back with a brazen face.

“So, what do you mean?….”

Li Yu-yen could not refute Adam’s egotistical thinking. Persuasion was impossible in the first place as long as he was determined not to listen.

“I’m not saying I’m going to transform Haewon into an omega right away.”

Adam shrugged his shoulders. It was only then that Li Yuyen could barely catch his breath.

“What kind of person can accept a change in character overnight?”

“……what are you going to do?”

When asked by Li Yu-yen, Adam rubbed his chin and was lost in thought.

“Well, it would be effective to isolate her from society and make her dependent on me, right?”

Li Yu-yen’s face turned pale.

“I’m just kidding. Get me out of this damn house.”

Added Adam refreshingly.

“And I’ll take my time, slowly, and build the body I want.”

The purpose of Adam’s visit to Korea was JS Group. Adam hoped for their downfall. But he met Seo Hae-won. Thus, all Adam’s attention shifted from JS to Seo Haewon.

At last the reason was revealed.

After all, it was all about Seo Hae-won.

The beginning and the end.

In a way, Adam’s irrational obsession and attraction toward Haewon was as expected.

But Seo Hae-won didn’t know anything.

The fact that her Omega fiancé is planning this dangerous thing behind her back.

“I’m sure Haewon will understand. No, she has to understand.”

Adam exchanged words by himself.

“What? What do you mean?”

“When we were young, she promised to be an omega and be my partner.”

“Haa… At that time, she must have said that because she didn’t know anything. It’s not something she can choose on her own.”

Li Yu-yen sighed deeply, grabbing his throbbing forehead. Adam replied with a grin.

“So I said I’d change it for her.”

No, it’s not even changing.

He just had to put her back the way she was.

Haewon was an omega from the start. Omega to be his partner. an omega to conceive a child with his seeds.

He doesn’t know whose prank it is.

It didn’t make sense that she was Alpha in the first place.

She smelled so sweet when she was a kid.

“Seo Haewon is mine.”

Adam murmured in a cool, subdued voice. At the same time, he was very absorbed in the idea of turning Haewon into an omega.

On the way home from work, Adam called to congratulate her on finishing her job well. Adam invited Hae-won to his house.
