“I, I…! Gaoyan…!”
Joo Pil-tae threw the file to the floor. The clump of paper scattered in all directions with a crackling sound.
The tin bent over to collect the scattered paper. Joo Pil-tae’s face was full of anger when he glanced.
“Where is he now?”
“Well, I can’t reach you. Since yesterday.”
“What’s that?”
“There has been a recent smell of liquidating stocks, maybe…….”
“Should I just let the guy who stole my company’s money run away? As soon as I catch him, it’s the day of the memorial service! Ritual day!”
The president smiled quietly at Ju Pil-tae pointing his finger in the air.

After leaving the Vice president’s villa, Adam drove straight home. And he remembered the conversation he had with Haewon before leaving the house.
“Let’s run away together.”
“What?”
Adam almost burst into laughter at Hae-won’s solemn remark.
“I heard Chairman Joo is trying to hurt you. I’ll go with you.”
“Do you want to run away at night with me?”
He felt sorry for Hae-won, who made a huge decision, but he didn’t want to do anything irresponsible like her father.
Why should they run away when it’s not even a losing battle in the first place?
“Oh, or I’ll ask Chairman Seo……”
“I’m not going to get her help.”
“But,”
“It’s okay, Haewon. You didn’t forget why I came to Korea, did you? I couldn’t have come without any preparation.”
“I don’t want you to be in danger. No way.”
“Can’t you believe me just this once? I know I’m not in a position to say this.”
“…….”
“There’s no way I’m going to die leaving you alone. Hm?”
Hae-won was frightened by the expression of death. Adam asked, comfortingly comforting Hae-won, who was shaking in fear.
“If Haewon really hates it. All right, let’s run away. Where shall we go? Which country do you like? I think a good country to raise children would be better, right?”
“Oh, my God.”
Hae-won’s eyes changed to the word “child.” She also seemed to recall running away with her father as a child.
She knew more than anyone else what it was like to grow up in a strange land with different cultures and languages.
“Think about it until I get back.”
“W-where are you going?”
“I’m going to meet my big brother. Don’t worry, I’ll be right back. What?”
“Do you have to go?”
“I have to go.”
“…I see. Can we get in touch?”
“Yes. Call me if you’re worried. Texting is good, too.”
“……Yes.”
However, Hae-won did not call or text at the end.
Maybe she believes in him. Adam felt sad again when he remembered Hae-won, who was seeing him off in a sullen manner.
Before he knew it, he was in front of the house.
Adam lightly waved toward Li Yuyen’s car that was parked in the parking lot in front of the apartment and entered the house.
“Haewon, I’m here…”
As soon as he stepped into the house, Adam quickly closed the front door. That was not enough, and he even put up a safety hook to see who would come in.
“Is it a heat?”
The sweet smell filled the house.
It was a pheromone in Haewon.
‘I’m glad I told Li Yuyen to wait outside.’
Adam managed to maintain his sense of reason and went out to find Haewon.
It wasn’t just jealousy that made him think that Haewon shouldn’t be with other people, he didn’t even know it was an alpha’s instinct to intuit the heat of a partner.
Finally, when he opened the door of the other bedroom, a ripe pheromone attacked Adam. But Haewon wasn’t in bed.
“Hnn, ugh…”
“?”
Hae-won was crumbling buried among piles of clothes as she lowered her gaze following the groan.
She built a nest in front of his closet.
Omega, whose hit cycle broke out, collected items with the smell of her mate and laid down in between to rest.
It was named Omega Nest because it looked like it had built a nest.
“Did you make all of these?”
Adam asked, bending one knee next to Haewon.
When Adam’s voice was heard, Hae-won poked out the face she was burying in the clothes. Her cheeks were flushed like wet peaches.
“Ugh, Adam…….”
Hae-won, who barely got up, suddenly tried to take off Adam’s coat. However, her hands kept slipping because she didn’t have any strength.
“Clothes, please.”
Adam took off his jacket himself.
“Okay. I’ll give you a quick hug ….…Haewon?”
However, Hae-won, who had Adam’s coat in her hand, lay down in the nest.
“Adam…”
In addition, she murmured his name and hesitated.
“What is this?”
The real thing is in front of you, and you’re just satisfied with the nest? Adam’s mouth, which became uncomfortable, turned sour.
“I’m here.”
“Uh-huh……”
Although Adam pulled one shoulder, Hae-won did not think of leaving the nest.
He didn’t leave her alone for that long, he just left her for a very short time, and she’s like this.
