“T-this is….”

Sera seemed to falter for a moment, and in an instant, her face changed suddenly, so she took out and grabbed the kitchen knife she had been hiding.

At that moment, Chairman Seo grabbed Sera’s wrist holding the knife.

“Seo Sera!”

“Let go, mother!”

“Stop it! What the hell is wrong with you? Are you out of your mind?” Sera refuted in a voice that expressed unfairness.

“Why are you stopping me when I say I’ll fix it right away! You should give me a chance, too!”

“Urgh!”

Sera struggled to pull out the caught arm. Chairman Seo, who was barely holding out by holding Sera’s wrist, turned her head toward Adam.

Chairman Seo gave a desperate look as if he was asking for help. But Adam only watched it calmly. It was indifferent, reminiscent of a person sitting in the audience. No, an audience won’t be so indifferent.

There is a real killer who wanted to kill him right in front of his nose, but what kind of human being is ignorant of this?

“Come on….!”

“Should I call someone?”

Adam tactfully brought it up.

“Yes, the security……!”

Chairman Seo closed herbmouth when she tried to tell him to call security. Calling people here makes the problem bigger.

“No, just leave quietly!” Sera’s eyes widened at Chairman Seo’s words.

“You’re just going to let him go? Mother, this is a chance! We have to finish it now!”

“Do you know where you are now?”

As the agitated Sera began to run even more wild, Chairman Seo’s body was pushed back little by little by little.

“Please let go! I don’t want to hurt Mother!”

Sera, who was screaming, saw Chairman Seo’s trembling legs and suddenly turned to the side. Chairman Seo, helplessly following Sera’s unexpected movement, eventually lost hold of her wrist.

‘It’s okay.’

Sera was greatly relieved when Chairman Seo’s hand fell off. But the joy didn’t last long.

Pow!

Chairman Seo, who collapsed without being able to keep her balance, hit her head on the coffee table.

“Mother…”

Sera lowered her head slowly in the direction where she heard a dull sound. And she was surprised to see her mother lying down with blood on her forehead.

“M-mother……!”

“Heuk, aheuk….”

Chairman Seo, who was still conscious, barely raised her  head and looked up at Sera. However, only the lips that had no energy to talk.

“W-well…… I told you not to stop me. I’ve never let you down……. Seo Haewon, unlike her, I……!”

Sera spoke like a madman, aiming the blade at her fallen mother. That was when she made excuses over and over again to defend herself.

“S-stop…”

Chairman Seo managed to open her mouth to such a daughter.

“Stop, Sera…… Ah…….”

Chairman Seo, who squeezed her voice with the last remaining power, turned her head and lost consciousness. Soon, her whole body sank like a deflated balloon.

“Ah, ahh….”

Sera looked blankly at her mother’s immovable body and slowly stepped back.

“N-no. No, it can’t be……!”

Sera shook her head violently, denying the reality.

“I won’t hurt my mother, I-I won’t. I didn’t mean to……!”

Sera was at a loss of control. She had to approach her fallen mother in front of her, but strangely, her feet kept moving away.

Why did this happen? I was just trying to fix everything.

“…….”

Sera, who was restless, stopped.

Yes. There was one reason why she came here in the first place and her mother became like this.

“Joo Adam…”

It’s all because of him.

Sera turned her head in the direction of Adam. However, he, who was sitting on the sofa a while ago, completely disappeared.

“Where have you gone… Ugh!”

At that moment, an electric current hit Sera’s body with a crash. Sera flinched and fell to the floor.

“Ugh, ah, ah…….”

A black shadow hung over Sera’s intermittent wriggling body.

“There’s nothing more effective than this for a crazy Alpha who carries a knife. Isn’t that right, Vice Chairman Seo?”

When Sera barely moved her eyes and looked up, Adam lightly shook the wrist holding the electric shocker.

“You must be very disappointed, by the way.”

He knelt down in front of Sera.

“In the end, you failed to reveal my real secret.”

“R-real, real secret……?”

Sera stuttered.

“It would have been revealed if my traits were also checked during the paternity test.”

Adam looked at Sera with pitiful eyes. Then, pretending to look around in case someone heard it, he quietly whispered.

“Actually, I’m an alpha.”

Sera doubted her ears.

What’s he saying? Not Omega but Alpha? What nonsense……!
