Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199: NECESSARY VIOLENCE

"DAD, look at this burger. It’s bigger than my head!"

Pfft.

Garam couldn’t help but smile at what Gunwoo said.

Well, his son wasn’t wrong.

Right now, they were having lunch in a famous fast-food restaurant in New York known for its burgers and generous servings of fries.

It’s okay since I only let Gunwoo eat fast-food from time to time.

"You don’t have to force yourself to finish it all if you can’t, baby."

"No, I can finish this, Dad. It’s yummy!" Gunwoo said, and then the kid continued wolfing down his ’giant’ burger. "But when are we meeting Daddy? I wanna see him already, Dad."

"Just be patient for a little bit," Garam said while wiping the sauce off the corner of Gunwoo’s mouth with a table napkin. "We need to prepare a surprise for your daddy first."

It may look like that only the two of them went out.

But some of the ’civilians’ in the restaurant were actually their bodyguards.

Appa can’t accompany us today because he’s investigating the branch office where Sihyuk Hyung is supposed to be working right now.

"Garam-ssi, I’m sorry for being late. The conference ended later than expected."

Oh.

Garam smiled and shook his head. "It’s alright, Dr. Seong. Thank you for coming all the way here."

Dr. Seong Kyungmin had a conference in Brooklyn.

When the doctor heard that Garam and Gunwoo were in Manhattan to look for Song Sihyuk, the doctor asked if they could meet.

And here we are now.

"I hope you don’t mind, but I ordered for you, Doc," Garam said. "We got you the same burger and fries combo that we have."

"Oh, it’s fine. Thank you," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said after sitting next to Gunwoo. "How much do I owe you, Garam-ssi?"

"It’s my treat."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I used Sihyuk Hyung’s card."

Song Sihyuk left one of his limitless credit cards with Garam before he left.

I only accepted it for Gunwoo.

"Then it’s fine," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said, laughing softly. "Anyway, I asked around when I met up with my colleagues in Brooklyn. Some of them had seen Song Sihyuk recently."

"Really? Where?"

"In various places, but one thing was common— they’ve all seen him with the Cho Triplets."

Garam almost crushed the cup of softdrinks in his hand. "Those triplets again?"

Dr. Seong Kyungmin nodded. "A colleague had also seen Song Sihyuk coming in and out of Hanmi Chem’s branch office here."

Hanmi Chem was the biggest pharmaceutical company in Korea.

And it’s owned by the Cho Triplet’s family.

"Plus, our colleagues said that they found Song Sihyuk strange. Like he’s not himself," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said worriedly. "Apparently, Song Sihyuk was grumpy when they met him."

"Isn’t Sihyuk Hyung normally like that anyway?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

To be honest, Garam wasn’t sure if they should be talking about Song Sihyuk like that in front of Gunwoo.

Fortunately, his son was busy with his lunch while humming happily to himself.

Yep, my son fell in love with this fast-food restaurant’s burger.

"Yeah, Song Sihyuk’s default setting is being a jerk," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said while nodding. "But the crazy part is the fact that Song Sihyuk doesn’t seem to recognize them. I mean, Song Sihyuk barely acknowledges people around him. But he won’t ignore people from prestigious families that SG Group works with."

"Lee Chan-ssi also said that Sihyuk Hyung seems to have a faulty memory these days," Garam said worriedly. "Doc, do you think he’s suffering from amnesia again?"

"Song Sihyuk’s amnesia before was partly caused by his unstable pheromones. If that stubborn jerk is working with the Cho Triplets again, then I’d say it’s possible," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said. "That’s why I wanted to see you before you go and meet him, Garam-ssi."

"What do you mean by that, Doc?"

"In case Song Sihyuk doesn’t recognize you and act like a violent jerk, you need something to protect yourself with, Garam-ssi."

Dr. Seong Kyungmin then handed a fancy-looking fountain pen to Garam.

Oh.

Oh, I know what to do now.

***

Sihyuk Hyung’s aide had no choice but to spill Sihyuk Hyung’s location after Appa grilled him.

Anyway...

I only called it ’shabby’ because it’s so simple compared to Sihyuk Hyung’s office in Korea.

Oh, Hyung is here.
