I'll Raise My Future Omega Son-in-law-Chapter 159: SCANDAL OF THE YEAR

THE OLDER Yuhyun was here?

Wonyoung almost burst into tears.

If there was one person he wanted to meet from the original timeline, it would be Yun Yuhyun.

He wouldn’t deny that his son was a monster towards An Baekya.

And he wouldn’t coddle Yun Yuhyun.

But it wouldn’t hurt to at least hug his one and only child, right?

"I apologized to the older Yuhyun. He turned out that way because I neglected him. No— I practically abandoned our son," Yun Yuhyun whispered, his voice full of regret. "I promised him that we will raise him properly this time."

Ah, Wonyoung was glad to hear that.

Perhaps, it was Yun Dujun whom the older Yun Yuhyun had to meet.

The older Yuhyun probably needed to hear those words the most from the parent whom he had known longer. After all, I died early in the original timeline.

"Wonyoung-ah, I’m sorry."

"For what, Hyung?"

"I neglected you, too," Yun Dujun said in a cracked voice. "In the original timeline, I didn’t even notice that Lee Heeju was messing with you. I left you to fend for yourself. And because of how I treated you, my mother didn’t hesitate to bully you. They knew I wouldn’t be there to protect you..."

Right.

To be honest, even though Wonyoung had regained the memories of the original timeline, his memories were still hazy.

After all, Lee Heeju had messed with his mind so much that he actually went insane.

"I’m sorry for failing to protect you back then, Wonyoung— and I’m sorry for realizing I loved you a little too late."

Yun Dujun’s voice just didn’t crack this time— the Alpha actually burst into tears. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Wonyoung actually resented Yun Dujun, but as soon as he saw him crying, he suddenly felt emotional.

Yeah, the Alpha neglected him in the past.

That was enough for him to hate him.

However...

"Had I not seen how you suffered after my death in the original timeline, I wouldn’t even throw a glance at you, Hyung," Wonyoung said, a lump forming in his throat. "But I saw it. I understand that you were heartbroken. But why did you have to traumatize our son by letting him see you cradling my rotting corpse in your room? That’s insanity."

"I don’t have my memories of the original timeline, but I get him," Yun Dujun said, smiling bitterly. "You were already gone when I realized I was in love with you all along. So, if I couldn’t have you while you were still alive, then I’d bet with you in your death. That’s probably what the me in the original timeline thought."

"You’re crazy."

"I am— and I’ll probably end up worse than I did in the original timeline if I lose you again here, Wonyoung-ah."

Haaah.

Wonyoung couldn’t say anything to mock Yun Dujun because he could see and feel that the Alpha was being sincere.

Regret.

Love.

Obsession.

Insanity.

Fear.

Wonyoung could see all those emotions playing on Yun Dujun’s tear-stricken face.

He knew the Alpha well enough to understand what he was feeling at the moment, even without him saying anything.

Yeah, Hyung will really go insane in the worst possible way if he loses me again.

Yun Dujun loved him that much.

Hence, the fear and obsession in the Alpha’s eyes.

"You should have loved me like that from the start, Hyung."

"I know, but I can’t change the past. That’s why I’m doing it now— loving you with all my heart and soul."

"That’s so cheesy."

Yun Dujun chuckled, but his eyes remained serious. "I’m willing to give up my career to be with you this time, Wonyoung-ah."

"Ask me first if I want to be with you, Hyung."

Yun Dujun looked shocked and devastated after hearing that.

"What?" Wonyoung complained lightly. "Did it not cross your mind that I may not want to be with you anymore?"

Okay, he knew he was being petty.

But he didn’t expect how the Alpha reacted.

Yun Dujun suddenly dropped to his knees, holding Wonyoung’s hands while looking up at him with teary eyes. "Wonyoung-ah, I’ll treat you right this time. I will never stop begging for your forgiveness. And I will do whatever you want me to do. Just please don’t leave me. Please."

Woah.

Wonyoung didn’t expect Yun Dujun to cry while begging him to stay.

This is kinda... fun?

It seemed like his sadistic side was awakened suddenly.

Yes, Alphas should be this pathetic towards their Omegas.

"Please give me one last chance, Wonyoung-ah," Yun Dujun said between sobs, still begging desperately. "I will make sure you won’t regret giving me another chance. Please."

Maybe Wonyoung’s sadistic side was stronger than he expected.

Why am I having fun seeing Hyung cry?

He felt bad, so...

"Hyung, at least for now, I’m not going anywhere," Wonyoung assured Yun Dujun while wiping the Alpha’s tears with his hands. Yes, it was fun seeing Yun Dujun cry for him. But a part of him still didn’t want to see Yun Dujun hurt. "We still need to work together to bring down Lee Heeju and Shaman Ahra. Once everything is settled, we’ll talk about us. We’ll decide whether we stay together or not."

Yun Dujun was clearly not happy with that, but he seemed quite satisfied that, at least, Wonyoung wouldn’t leave him.

Beggars can’t be choosers. Right, Hyung?

"You’re right— we have to secure your safety first. Plus, our family will never know peace as long as Lee Heeju and the shaman are in the way," Yun Dujun said. It seemed like the Alpha had finally calmed down. "Do you have a plan, Wonyoung-ah? Tell me how I can be of use to you."

Yeah, this is how Alphas should act— like servants to their Omegas.

"Let’s find An Baekya’s uncle first, Hyung," Wonyoung said. He made that decision with a heavy heart. But what could he do? "We can’t raise An Baekya and Yun Yuhyun together."

***

"I ALREADY asked Mr. Seo to continue looking for An Baekya’s uncle. Since he already has a lead before, he might find An Baekya’s uncle sooner than we expect."

Wonyoung just nodded after listening to Yun Dujun’s report.

He couldn’t open his mouth because he was afraid that he might suddenly cry while looking at Bae Gayoung.

My poor baby cousin...

Bae Gayoung was still in the ICU.

Fortunately, it was still within visiting hours.

Hence, he was able to finally see his cousin.

"Bae Gayoung’s condition has stabilized already," Yun Dujun assured Wonyoung. "In fact, the doctor told us earlier that we can move her to a private room now."

That was a relief.

"Then Hyung..."

"Yes, I already asked Han Myung to arrange a VIP Room for Bae Gayoung."

"Thank you, Hyung."

"You don’t have to thank me. Gayoung is family to me, too."

"Have they caught the man who caused the accident?"

"Yes. It was a drunk ahjussi."

"Can you check if that ahjussi is related to Lee Heeju or Junsung Group in any way? I have a feeling that this wasn’t a mere accident."

"I’ve actually asked my people to investigate that bastard. I also had an inkling that this wasn’t a mere accident. We’ll hear from them later."

Wonyoung was glad that Yun Dujun was quick-witted.

Moreover...

"I’m glad that you believed everything easily, Hyung."

"It’s hard not to believe it after I’ve read the ’manuscript.’ Moreover, I literally saw the older Yun Yuhyun transform into his older form before he disappeared."

Oh.

I wish I could have seen that, too.

"Hyung, when can I get discharged from the hospital?"

"The doctors said you can get discharged anytime now. But I’d like it if you stay here a little longer. You just woke up, after all."

He’s being protective again.

"I can’t stay here for too long," Wonyoung said while shaking his head. "An Baekya is alone at home."

Yes, I know Baekya isn’t a child— but our neighbors don’t know that.

Plus, An Baekya was still in the body of a child.

He’s my responsibility until we find his uncle.

"Let’s just send household staff members to take care of An Baekya," Yun Dujun said indifferently. Now the Alpha wasn’t hiding his dislike for An Baekya. "Yuhyun also needs you, Wonyoung-ah."

"Hyung, let me take care of An Baekya until we find his uncle. This is the last thing I can do for him as his foster parent."

"Wonyoung-ah, you’re too kind for your own good."

"That’s not true. If I were kind, I would have tried to understand An Baekya."

"If I were you, I would have kicked out An Baekya already instead of looking for his uncle."

"That’s being irresponsible, Hyung."

Yun Dujun just shrugged unapologetically.

"When I returned without my old memories, I promised myself that I would raise my future Omega son-in-law," Wonyoung said, smiling sadly. "It breaks my heart that I have to break that promise now."

***

FRIED CHICKEN.

As soon as Wonyoung was allowed to eat solid food, he immediately asked Yun Dujun to order fried chicken for him.

Two boxes, at that.

"Eat slowly and chew properly, Bae Wonyoung," Yun Dujun scolded him lightly. "No one’s going to steal your food from you."

What a nag.

If Wonyoung’s mouth wasn’t full, he would have complained already.

That and if Yun Dujun didn’t get a call from Spencer Choi.

The Alpha excused himself before picking up the call from their boss.

"Yes, Daepyonim? Ah, sure. I’ll check it."

Wonyoung was surprised when Yun Dujun ended the call quickly.

Then the Alpha remained glued to his phone, using NAVI (their country’s G*ogle, owned by Yun Dujun’s father) to search for something.

"What’s wrong, Hyung?"

"Articles slandering you have been released, and they’re kinda going viral."

"What did the reporters claim I did wrong?"

"You, apparently, used your "sponsor" to steal a lead role from Kim Seojun. No one name-dropped either of you. But the clues all pointed to you as the rookie actor who has a powerful backer. The articles said you "stole" the role from "the most beautiful Omega" in the industry, so people immediately assumed that the reporters were talking about Kim Seojun."

Right.

Apparently, Kim Seojun is the most beautiful Omega in the industry.

"You sound calm, Hyung. Have you already expected this?"

"Yes. Don’t worry too much, Wonyoung-ah. Daepyonim and I have already decided about what to do to bury this stupid article about you."

"Can’t I just say something and call out the lies?"

"The reporters didn’t name you. If you speak up, it’s like admitting that they were right. Even if you deny their claims, the general public won’t listen since they don’t care about the truth."

"Then how do you plan to bury the articles about me?"

"I’m going to announce that I’m already married with a son."

"Hyung!"

"Don’t worry— I’ll make sure that your identity as my husband won’t be exposed. Of course, I’ll protect our Yuhyun’s identity as well."

Well, to be fair, announcing it now would be the right thing to do.

We can’t hide the truth forever, especially not now when the reporters already know that Dujun Hyung is already married. It’s better if the news comes from Hyung himself.

However...

"Hyung, that news is going to shake our country," Wonyoung said, his brain already working with different scenarios in his head. "Let’s do it this way."

Yun Dujun nodded. "I’m listening."

***

LEE HEEJU was having fun reading the bad comments about Bae Wonyoung after the articles were released.

People were criticizing him for being a ’sugar baby.’

So, even Bae Wonyoung’s viral kissing scene was now dubbed as media play.

You don’t have a place here, Bae Wonyoung.

He was about to log out of his burner account, but he got a notification from Yun Dujun’s social media account.

And he was shocked by the announcement.

[Actor Yun Dujun’s announcement: "I am married with a son." Full statement later at the press conference.]

"What?" Lee Heeju asked in disbelief. "Yun Dujun, are you trying to ruin your career?!"

As if that wasn’t enough shocking news, he got another notification.

This time, another article came out.

[Actor Kim Seojun, confirmed sugar baby of Junsung Group’s Vice President Lee Heeju.]

Lee Heeju couldn’t believe his eyes.

Did the article just name-drop him and Kim Seojun directly?

Just like that?

Are these stupid bastards not afraid to be sued?!
