“Don’t worry too much. I think it’s a good thing that you’re interested in Chan-young, even if it’s late, and he has something he wants to do, too.”

“If I were a grandfather, I would……. Even my grandson tells what he wants to do to the secretary I planted…….”

‘Here we go again.’

Mr. Kim put his palm on his forehead. Chairman Seong has become a sensitive boss who is sad about small things since the menopause, when male hormones and alpha pheromones have decreased significantly. 

Mr. Kim was annoyed about his capriciousness, which was really different from his young days, when he was more cold-blooded.

‘Hold it in, hold it in. We can’t let the relationship between grandfather and grandson be ruined forever.’

With that sense of duty, Kim finally soothed his friend and cheered Chairman Seong up.

“What’s important about means? It’s important that you know now.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. So please express a lot of affection to Chan-young in the future.”

“Well, I asked my secretary to get him the best land that Chan-young would like.”

“……I got it.”

He had a lot of connections, and there was no land that Seong Eun Group, the best company in South Korea, could not find. Chairman Seong’s shoulders tensed again. All he could think of was getting close to his grandson, even if it was late.

“Well, don’t freak out your grandson, huh? Get close to your grandson as you take steps. You know what I mean?”

“Hmm. Who said you don’t know? I’ll take care of it. I’m lucky to succeed as Chairman Seong of the Seong Eun Group.”

At the words, Kim looked at Chairman Seong with an even more suspicious look, but he ignored it casually.

“It’s me, Secretary Choi. I have to give our Chan-young the best farm, so I’ll take a little time.”

[Yes? But you seemed to want to get it as soon as possible……….]

“Don’t talk, just do as I say. This is an order as a grandfather.”

Secretary Choi did not know what Chairman Seong was trying to do, but he followed the order because it was an employer’s order whom pay him a salary.

[In that case, I understand. I’ll report that to young master.]

“Yes, keep an eye on my grandson. Let me know if anything happens.”

In doing so, Secretary Choi could not immediately fulfill Chan-young’s request. This was because Chairman Seong had him wait while he searched for all real estates across the country.

[Chairman, this is Secretary Choi. I’m contacting you because you said you wanted land in a remote place.]

“Oh, yes. That’s right. Tell him you’ll need to find out a little more.”

‘This will prepare him for the best surprise.’

Chairman Seong was immersed in a swollen sweet dream. He had already painted dozens of times a picture of him hugging and crying, saying, “How hard has it been?”

“I hope Chan-young likes it……. If it’s the case, show your grandfather a little smile.”

To be honest, I didn’t want to let him farm. However, when he said he wanted to do it, he held it in and gave way. It was Chairman Seong who thought of getting close to his grandson and gently enticing him to abandon his dream of farming.

While he was trying to find land for his grandson by swallowing the kimchi soup from the cauldron, Seong Chan-young…….

“What’s the matter? Why did you come to me?”

“Baek Do-jun.”

“Why, Seong Chan-young?.”

“Let’s break up from now on.”

“……what?”

He met Baek Do-jun, his fiancé and the main Gong who destroyed Seong Chan-young, and asked for a breakup.

⚝ ⚝ ⚝

If there was a lesson I learned from going to apologize to Seo Eun-soo, it was that I had to cut off my relationship with the Gongs as soon as possible.

“Who did he have to be violent?! Although there was no such thing as a completely wild boar.”

Ugh. It still hurts.

The marks on Joo Tae-kang’s wrist were still tingling. On the first day, the red mark turned into a bruise and remained mottled.

“He’s so ignorant and strong. Will Dominant Alpha even change his manners?”

The clothes I wore that day were completely stretched at the neck, so I had to throw them away. Throughout the whole time, I was throwing away my memories of my terrible first meeting with Joo Tae-kang, but it didn’t go my way.

After returning to Seong Chan-young’s house, I suffered from nightmares for a few days. It was a dream that they found out I was not the real Seong Chan-young and was shunned by everyone around me.

You’re not really Seong Chan-young?

So where’s my son? Give me back my son!

‘And there was one more…….’

I thought I was really Seong Chan-young, so I had a nightmare where the Gongs destroyed me as they were in the original, just like the last encounter with Joo Tae-kang.

To me, this was more frightening and horrible. It was because the dream came too real.

In my dreams, I was surrounded by the Gongs, and they were laughing at me, who was driven to the edge of a cliff. Behind them, an angry Seo Eun-soo was quietly watching the situation.

-Now I can take this leech stalker off.

-Eunsoo, you’ve worked so hard. You won’t even see the end of Seong Chan-young’s hair anymore.

-Go to hell, Seong Chan-young.

They gave sweet words to their beloved Seo Eun-soo and cursed at me, stepping on the fingertips of my hand, which I barely clung to death.

In my dream, I hung on the cliff with one hand and shouted for help. Once I fell, there was death.

-Help me, please! I’m not Seong Chan-young. I’m not!

Even if I confessed that I wasn’t the real Seong Chan-young, they didn’t change.

-So what?

-You’re a liar until the end, Seong Chan-young.

-Do you think we’d believe you said that?

-I don’t fall for your nonsense anymore.

Step

It was the end. The Gongs stepped on my fingertips, which I had hung dangerously, and I couldn’t overcome the pain and fell.

My mouth was wide open as if the distant darkness had swallowed me.

Let’s never see each other again, Seong Chan-young.

“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

I woke up screaming from a nightmare. The Gongs didn’t believe me, or Seong Chan-young in my dreams. Rather, they misunderstood my words as false and tried to kill them for sure.

“Gasp, Gasp….. What a relief. It was a dream.”

‘I have to get away from the Gongs one way or another.’

I changed my sweaty pajamas and made a firm commitment. Let’s go farming now. That’s the only way I will live.

The nightmare felt unusual for me when I thought of the original work. There was no guarantee that other Gongs would not be as aggressive as Joo Tae-kang. 

Rather, it was likely that they hated me and tried to remove me.

“Just like Baek Do-jun, who’s engaged. Unlike the original work, he was monitoring Seong Chan-young through the housekeeper.’

Even the housekeeper was not happy with Seong Chan-young. Baek Do-jun would not dirty his hands like that, but it was possible that he had the housekeeper as a spy to get rid of Sung Chan-young.

‘Once he give him a pill to kill him…….’

My body trembled with the chills. I needed to step up and ruin the original work in advance so that such a bad ending would not happen.

“You have to live and see me first.”

After all, I didn’t feel affection for this novel itself. Therefore, there was no reason to feel guilty about ruining the original work.

Immediately after I made up my mind, I picked up my cell phone, searched for Baek Do-jun’s name on the contact list, and called him.

After a few seconds, a low, serious, yet soft voice was soon heard.

[……Hello?]

‘It’s that voice from then.’

Baek Do-jun’s voice, which he overheard over the front door, rang in his ears, and he felt nauseous. Was it because of Joo Tae-kang’s doings? Even though it was a voice like a voice actor, he barely endured the burden of wanting to vomit and responded.

“Hello, Baek Do-jun. It’s me. I’m calling to tell you something.”

[What’s this time? Do you need a mutt that will run your errands like last time?]

As soon as he heard me, his voice, which was as soft and gentle as a chiffon cake, changed to a tone of annoyance and bothersomeness.

My shoulders shrank naturally, but I firmly told him my business, reflecting on my terrible nightmare.

“It’s not like that. Baek Do-jun. Listen to me till the end.”

[What are you to tell me what to do, if it’s not that kind of dog play?]

I wanted to curse at the fact that these were all shite left by Seong Chan-young, but I had to keep calm. It would’ve been nice if I could’ve gotten over this moment.

Let’s be patient. I’m going to enjoy a happy farming life after putting everything down.

“It’s an important matter. I’ll tell you then…… I want to talk to you in person.”

[…What?]

I want to break up our engagement, you brat.

I wanted to say it right away, but I quit because I was afraid that Baek Do-jun would only think me strange. So I decided to negotiate face-to-face with him, fearing that he would not break up the marriage for fear of losing the company’s profits from his political engagement with Seong Eun Group.

“If you’re curious, I’ll ask Secretary Choi to make a reservation for an appropriate restaurant, so come over there. The appointment time is tomorrow at 1 p.m. Leave the time for me.”

I don’t know Seong Chan-young’s food preference, so I contacted Secretary Choi and asked him to send me a list of restaurants. Among them, I chose a Korean restaurant with a luxurious atmosphere, and the reservation was made quickly through Secretary Choi.

[I have time, but..……. What the hell are you up to, Seong Chan-young?]

“It’s not a big deal. It’s a good thing for you, too.”

When I tried to hang up after saying this, Baek Do-jun stopped me in an urgent voice.
