Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258: GROWING FAMILY

"HYUNG, Daeho Hyung is really serious about putting up his baby for adoption," Gong Hanseo said, wrapping up his story. He told Seong Kyungmin about the conversation that he had with Kang Daeho. "In fact, he has already started working on the paperwork. He reached out to a private agency. That agency helps Omegas put up their unwanted babies for adoption."

After making a scene in the hospital lobby, Gong Hanseo asked Seong Kyungmin if they could talk somewhere else.

He thought his fiance would bring him to his office, but no.

Since it was already lunchtime, Seong Kyungmin brought him to a fancy restaurant. His lover booked a private room for them, so they could talk privately.

"What private agency did your sunbae reach out to?"

"It’s called ’Safe Haven Program.’"

"That’s a legit agency," Seong Kyungmin said, nodding. "Our hospital is a partner. Omegas who give birth to children they have put up for adoption are being assisted by the Safe Haven Program. I guess that’s what Kang Daeho is doing."

"Hyung, I heard that the agency allows potential adoptive parents to adopt children who haven’t been born yet..."

Seong Kyungmin nodded. "Yes, it’s possible to do that if the Omega personally endorses the potential adoptive parents. Of course, the agency will still run a few tests to determine if the potential adoptive parents really have what it takes to adopt a child. But if your sunbae endorses us, then the procedure should run smoothly."

Whew.

"Hyung, what do you think?"

"If you want to adopt the baby, then let’s do it."

"I hope you’re not making this decision just because I said I wanted a baby, Hyung."

"As I said before, whether we’re going to have a child or not is up to my partner," Seong Kyungmin reminded Gong Hanseo gently. "But don’t worry, Hanseo-ya. I’m not forcing myself. I can live without a child, but that doesn’t mean I won’t welcome the idea. A child we’ll raise together will be a precious part of our family, after all."

Aww.

"Then, Hyung, can we proceed with the paperwork?" Gong Hanseo asked excitedly, but his smile disappeared when he remembered something. "I want to secure Daeho Hyung’s baby."

"Hanseo-ya."

"Yes, Hyung?"

"You haven’t checked the requirements to be adoptive parents, have you?"

Gong Hanseo blinked, confused by Seong Kyungmin’s question. "Hmm?"

***

SO, Gong Hanseo and Seong Kyungmin weren’t qualified to adopt the baby.

I got too excited that I forgot about the requirements.

Hence, as soon as they got home, Gong Hanseo lay down on the bed with his face buried in the pillow.

No, he wasn’t crying.

But he wanted to.

Only married couples are allowed to adopt children...

It would be nice if Gong Hanseo and Seong Kyungmin just had to register their marriage before the wedding ceremony.

But that wasn’t enough.

To adopt a child, the couple has to be married for quite some time. For an Alpha and Omega couple, they only need to be married for a year. But if the couple is one Alpha and the other is a Beta, then they have to be married for at least two years. For a Beta couple, they have to be married for at least three years.

Gong Hanseo and Seong Kyungmin, as an Alpha-Beta couple, had to be married for at least two years before they could adopt a child.

He didn’t want to wait for that long.

What if Daeho Hyung’s baby gets adopted while we’re waiting?

"Hanseo-ya."

"Hyung, I’m okay..."

No, he wasn’t.

But he didn’t want his lover to worry about that.

"Hanseo-ya, who’s my father?"

"Dr. Seong Jungho, the director of Heesung Medical Center, one of our country’s top 5 hospitals..."

It can only happen when you’re with a big shot.
