I'll Raise My Future Omega Son-in-law-Chapter 153: GOOD ENDING

’BAE WONYOUNG’S HAPPY ENDING.’

The story was about a poor guy, Bae Wonyoung, who was neglected and abused by his relatives after his parents died. As if that wasn’t enough, he found out that his guardians actually stole his parents’ life insurance. He ran away from home and started working part-time jobs to survive. When he got into a prestigious university, he happened to see a play by the school’s theatre club. That inspired him to try acting.

Oh.

Yun Yuhyun thought it was similar to his Omega father’s life story.

Except that world only had Betas.

No, actually, there was no mention of the word ’Beta’ there.

People were all just, uh, regular people?

Strange.

I can’t imagine a world with only ’Betas.’

Anyway, Yun Yuhyun thought that the novel-Bae Wonyoung would meet the novel-Yun Dujun.

But that didn’t happen.

The main character joined his university’s theatre club and eventually became its star actor.

Ah, there’s no Abeoji in this world.

The story purely revolved around Bae Wonyoung and his journey into becoming a famous actor.

It was actually pretty inspiring.

The book-Bae Wonyoung started as an extra, but he captured the attention of well-known directors and screenwriters.

Sometimes, the book-Bae Wonyoung would be bullied by his co-stars.

There was even a ’scene’ where a sunbae-nim tried to humiliate the book-Bae Wonyoung by suddenly doing an ad-lib, knowing full well that he was acting with a rookie. But book-Bae Wonyoung surprised everyone by doing his own ad-lib.

In the end, the bastard sunbae-nim was the one who got humiliated by book-Bae Wonyoung.

Appa is amazing.

As an actor himself, Yun Yuhyun couldn’t help but admire the book-Bae Wonyoung, who slowly but constantly climbed the ladder of success through hard work and a bit of luck.

Which was different from his path.

Everything came easy to me because I’m handsome, talented, and rich. It also helped that I’m Yun Dujun’s son. So, being an actor is like a game to me.

Reading the book-Bae Wonyoung’s struggles as an actor made him feel ashamed.

But Yun Yuhyun also ended up cheering the book-Bae Wonyoung on.

Hence, he was truly happy when the book-Bae Wonyoung had finally reached the top.

There’s still no mention of Abeoji, or any love interest, for that matter.

And Yun Yuhyun finally realized why when he reached the last arc of the story.

Same-sex relationships are frowned upon in most places in that world?

How weird.

Why would someone’s gender be a hindrance in dating?

Ah, was it because pheromones didn’t exist there?

Is it like how two Alphas or two Omegas dating each other are frowned upon in our world?

Anyway, Yun Yuhyun only realized that when book-Bae Wonyoung received a ’controversial’ story for being a BL, aka a ’gay story.’

What the hell does ’gay’ even mean? Isn’t that just another word for ’happy’ in English?

Anyway, the script had the tentative ’Chained to You.’

The conversation between actor Bae Wonyoung and his manager Han Myung (like Uncle Myung?) made Yun Yuhyun’s blood run cold.

"So, the male lead broke the main character’s ankle, locked him up in an isolated villa, raped him until he got pregnant, and they still lived happily ever after? This should be labeled as ’horror’ and not ’romance.’ I wouldn’t complain if that was the case."

Yun Yuhyun froze when he realized that those were the awful things that he did to An Baekya, his Omega.

"Do the readers actually ship the victim with his abuser?"

’Abuser?’

Yun Yuhyun was somehow surprised to ’hear’ his Omega father call him an abuser.

Is that what I am to An Baekya?

"Well, the male lead said ’sorry’ and shed a few tears. Apparently, the male lead turned out that way because his parents didn’t love him. I think the revelation of the ML’s sob story is supposed to be his redemption arc."

Ah, Yun Yuhyun suddenly felt embarrassed.

It was true that he cried and begged An Baekya to stay with him.

And it just happened last week.

It was his Omega father’s death anniversary, and so Yun Yuhyun got emotional.

He told An Baekya his tragic childhood.

That he turned out to be a crazy bastard because of his parents.

Which was nothing but an excuse since I grew up with Uncle Inyeop, Aunt Chaein, and Yunchae Noona, who all loved me genuinely.

Yun Yuhyun was simply a rotten Alpha, through and through.

"They offered you the role of An Baekya. He’s the main character, and uh, what do you call it again? Omega?"

Huh?

Yun Yuhyun was surprised.

So, the book-Bae Wonyoung would play as An Baekya?

It felt strange to ’see’ his father play the ’role’ of his father.

Fortunately, the book-Bae Wonyoung hesitated to take the role.

"Please return the script, Myung-ah."

"Is the script that bad, Wonyoung-ah? I know many people criticize the novel for romanticizing rape and abuse. Stockholm syndrome, too."

"The novel isn’t for me, but it’s not the reason."

"Then why are you turning down the script?"

"I’m not sure either. I know An Baekya is only a fictional character. But I feel bad for the kid. He was abused when he was a child, got chased by a creepy loan shark because of his uncle’s debt, almost got sold to a brothel, and then bought by a chaebol in the end."

Yun Yuhyun flinched.

It was ridiculous, but he felt jealous when his Omega father expressed concern for An Baekya.

I’m your son, Appa...

He was really getting jealous, but the book-Bae Wonyoung wasn’t done yet.

"That’s what I don’t understand, Myung-ah. After reading the novel, I feel so attached to An Baekya. I know I won’t be able to play his role well because I can’t see myself as him— I see myself as his guardian. I want to hug An Baekya and protect him from the cruel world. The child didn’t deserve the bad life that he had."

Yun Yuhyun frowned.

He didn’t really like the fact that book-Bae Wonyoung was gushing over the book-An Baekya.

"I don’t remember Yun Yuhyun’s parents well. But they failed as parents! Now I want to know what kind of parents raised a monster like Yun Yuhyun."

Oh.

Yun Yuhyun felt a pang in his chest when the book-Bae Wonyoung called the book-Yun Yuhyun a ’monster.’

Well, it was true.

But it still hurt ’hearing’ it.

It’s like Appa called me a monster.

But, come to think of it, Yun Yuhyun was really a monster for everything he did to An Baekya.

And now I know that if Appa were still alive, he’d hate me.

Bae Wonyoung, his Omega father, would choose An Baekya over him in a heartbeat.

After all, his Omega father also suffered because of his Alpha father.

Yun Yuhyun’s gaze fell on his ’sleeping’ Alpha father. "We don’t deserve them, Abeoji."

Of course, he was only met with silence.

He shook his head and continued reading the manuscript.

However, much to his shock, the next pages were all blank.

No, I have to know how this ends!

[Emotion Acquired: Regret]

Yun Yuhyun was so spooked when words suddenly appeared on a blank page that he ended up throwing the book.

It hit the wall and suddenly disappeared.

What the...

After that, a huge semi-transparent TV monitor(?) appeared in front of his face.

[Greetings, Yun Yuhyun.

This is the System granted to the chosen heir of the Yun Clan.

Ah, would you recognize us if we said we are the treasure that your family has been seeking for a long time?]

The family’s treasure?

Ah, Yun Yuhyun did remember that the reason why his parents married in the first place was because his great-grandfather wanted to find the treasure that, apparently, would come out once he was born.

He calmed down immediately after that.

Yeah, he wasn’t that surprised.

After all, he grew up in a family that believed in a shaman for so long.

"Why did you only show up now? My great-grandfather, the only person in the family who was obsessed with the treasure, is long dead. We don’t need you anymore."

[That’s simply not true.]

"Don’t talk back to me."

[We appeared before Yun Dujun as a reward after he got rid of Shaman Ahra eight years ago.]

Oh.

To be honest, Yun Yuhyun didn’t care about the shaman.

He just knew that she disappeared before his Alpha father fell into a coma.

Is the ’System’ implying that Abeoji killed that person?

[Yun Dujun, as a reward, wished for us to bring back Bae Wonyoung.

However, we can’t bring back the dead.]

How useless.

[When we asked Yun Dujun to make another wish, he asked to turn back time— to bring him back to the time Bae Wonyoung was still alive.

Unfortunately, it was something we couldn’t grant Yun Dujun.]

Yun Yuhyun let out a sigh, frustrated. "If you can’t do things like that, then why are you called our family’s treasure? In my opinion, you’re pretty useless."

[It’s not like we can’t do it.

But turning back time is a big wish that we can only grant to the real heir of the treasure.]

"Abeoji is not the rightful heir?"

[Yun Dujun was only chosen to father the heir.]

"Oh," Yun Yuhyun said, pointing to himself. "I’m the heir, then?"

[Yes.

Yun Dujun’s privilege only comes from the fact that he is your father.

Hence, the wishes that we could grant for him are limited.

But since Yun Dujun helped us take back our power from Shaman Ahra, we were still able to grant him a pretty big wish.]

"And what kind of wish did Abeoji make this time?"

[To let Bae Wonyoung live in a fake reality.

A world where Alphas and Omegas don’t exist.

A world where Bae Wonyoung could reach all of his dreams and become a very successful actor.

A world where Yun Dujun doesn’t exist.]

Oh, then...

"The ’book’ that I read is the fake reality where Appa is currently ’living?’"

[That’s correct.

But the fake reality that the System created has another purpose— it is to preserve Bae Wonyoung’s soul and memories, in case you wish to turn back time, Yun Yuhyun.

As the rightful heir, you have the power to make that kind of wish.]

Oh.

Something like that was possible for Yun Yuhyun, huh?

Then...

Yun Yuhyun turned to his Alpha father when he felt the need to do so.

And, much to his shock, his Alpha father’s eyes were now open.

"Abeoji!"

***

WHEW.

Yun Yuhyun plopped onto the sofa as soon as he arrived at his penthouse.

Yes, his Alpha father was already awake.

But he chose not to stay.

Uncle Inyeop, Aunt Chaein, and Yunchae Noona are there anyway.

Yun Yuhyun just felt too guilty to stay there and face his Alpha father.

I know that Abeoji was neither a good father nor a good husband. But Abeoji never laid a hand on me and Appa.

Never.

Yun Yuhyun, on the other hand...

I’ve done so many awful things to An Baekya that my own Omega father called me a monster.

He knew it was his fault for turning out that way despite having a decent family.

However, Yun Yuhyun couldn’t help but still wonder...

If I grew up with Appa and Abeoji by my side, would my life have changed?

***

ONE MONTH had already passed since Yun Yuhyun’s Alpha woke up.

Abeoji is undergoing therapy to regain his motor skills.

And it seemed like his Alpha father couldn’t talk yet.

Hence, he thought it would be no use visiting the hospital.

Fine, it was just an excuse.

He was just feeling awkward.

"Yuhyun-ah, I won’t force you to visit your father if you’re not yet ready," Uncle Inyeop said in a scolding tone. "But fix your life, will you? Do you know how much money I’ve already spent keeping the reporters’ mouth shut? Those bastards are itching to release the articles about how unprofessional you are for abandoning the series and movies that you were supposed to film." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Right.

Yun Yuhyun did that.

One of those projects that he wanted to quit already was a Hollywood movie, at that.

"Uncle, I’m done with acting," Yun Yuhyun said. "Can I just work for the company?"

***

TWO MONTHS since Yun Yuhyun started training at his uncle’s company, he received a call from Han Gunil— his aide and bodyguard since he was a kid.

"What is it, Uncle Gunil?"

"Young Master, An Baekya-nim has escaped..."

"What?!"

"Young Lady Yunchae helped An Baekya-nim leave the villa..."

Yun Yuhyun shut his eyes tight while pinching the bridge of his nose.

Yunchae Noona...!
