Hamin, with a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth, opened his lips again.
“Actually, Mr. Suhwan is exactly the right marriage partner for me.”
“What? What did you say?”
Suddenly?
Suhwan became even more flustered at Hamin’s statement that came out of nowhere. Mentioning marriage at their first meeting. Though it didn’t seem like he intended to get married right away.
Looking at the confused Suhwan with amused eyes, Hamin continued.
“You may not know, but I run one of the Samyoung affiliates. Although I was initially looked down upon for being an omega, now things are running quite stably.”
Suhwan knew that too. Now that he realized Hamin was the supporting omega character.
He was the third son of Samyoung, with excellent business acumen. In the novel, he was the character who fell in love with Ju Geonyul, a dominant alpha, at first sight and followed him around, while arbitrarily recognizing Seunghyun as his rival and engaging in mind games.
He was also a character who appeared after Jin Suhwan, the villain and foreign element, died. He could be considered a character created to generate incidents and jealousy in a novel that transformed from a dark story to a healing one through the kind main lead Ju Geonyul.
Since then, the trajectory of the dark novel changed a bit. Suhwan thought to himself, recalling the content of the novel.
“Since they say I can’t continue running the company unless I marry an alpha, I’ve been urgently looking for a spouse. I want an alpha partner who won’t interfere with me or my company.”
“Ah.”
So that was the reason. Well, someone like Ju Geonyul would probably support and encourage whatever his partner did because of his kind nature. Just like he did with Seunghyun, the main omega.
Suhwan nodded as he learned about the supporting omega’s hidden circumstances. Looking at him, Hamin asked.
“What about you, Mr. Suhwan? Do you dislike an omega who runs a business?”
“Pardon?”
Receiving the question, Suhwan quickly became uncomfortable. It seemed like saying he disliked it would make Hamin lose interest, but he didn’t want to lie and hurt his feelings either.
Seeing Suhwan conflicted, Hamin burst into laughter.
“Haha, I was just teasing you on purpose. I’m sorry.”
“I-I see.”
He was truly a supporting omega who could take one’s breath away. Suhwan knew from the novel that he had a bold personality, but experiencing it firsthand was quite different. Suhwan moistened his increasingly dry lips with water, feeling awkward.
“By the way, I heard you have a fiancé.”
“Ah, well…”
The engagement between Suhwan and Seunghyun was quite well-known among businesses. So it wasn’t strange that Hamin knew about it.
But he was at a loss for how to explain this. Had Chairman Jin talked to Hamin’s side about canceling the engagement? That must be why he came to this matchmaking meeting, right?
Just as Suhwan was about to speak after thinking to himself, someone else spoke.
“Yes, Jin Suhwan has a fiancé.”
“…!”
The answer unexpectedly came from behind. Suhwan turned around with surprised eyes.
“So it doesn’t make sense for him to be sitting in a place like this. Isn’t that right?”
Seunghyun’s hand gripped Suhwan’s shoulder and pressed down firmly. Suhwan couldn’t answer and just looked up at Seunghyun’s cold face.
