OF COURSE, Garam was eager to hear Song Sihyuk’s explanation.
But he couldn’t do that while the Alpha’s nose was still bleeding.
Hence, he decided to treat Song Sihyuk’s nose first.
Since he asked for a first-aid kit, Lee Wonjae found out what happened.
So, right now, his Oga father-in-law was watching them closely.
Appa is probably afraid that our Sihyuk Hyung and I will have a physical fight again, so he’s keeping an eye on us. But, actually, Appa just keeps glaring at his son.
"Dear, you should have hit that manchild harder."
Aigooya.
"It was an accident, Appa," Garam explained. He didn’t want his Oga father-in-law to think that he was a violent son-in-law. "Yes, I did hit Hyung on his back. But I didn’t an to punch him in the nose. I’m sorry."
"No, don’t apologize, dear. You have every right to be physically violent toward my son. He deserves to be beaten up after everything he made you go through," Lee Wonjae said encouragingly. "But Song Sihyuk didn’t hit you back, did he?"
Song Sihyuk gasped in disbelief. "Appa, did you really think I’m capable of physically hurting my wife?"
"Shut up, Song Sihyuk. I’m not asking you."
Pfft.
I love how Appa is so protective of .
"Appa, Sihyuk Hyung didn’t hit back," Garam assured his Oga father-in-law. "Sihyuk Hyung has ntally and emotionally hurt , but never physically."
Song Sihyuk flinched, obviously guilty.
anwhile, Lee Wonjae sighed and shook his head— clearly disappointed in his only son.
"Plus, I wouldn’t just accept it had Sihyuk Hyung laid a hand on ," Garam said to assure his Oga father-in-law that he wasn’t completely helpless. "Don’t worry, Appa. This won’t happen again."
"Good. I’m glad my grandson didn’t see you two fight."
And it was all thanks to Lee Wonjae, who took Gunwoo back to his new favorite fast-food restaurant.
When his Oga father-in-law returned, he saw Jung Han bring the first-aid kit to the room where Garam and Song Sihyuk.
The quick-witted Lee Wonjae then sent Gunwoo to his bedroom with Sheena.
Miss Sheena is Appa’s chief of staff whom he brought with us.
"Appa, I will never hurt my wife again," Song Sihyuk said to his Oga father determinedly. "I will not waste the last chance that Lim Garam gave to ."
Lee Wonjae looked surprised by that, and then he looked at Garam. "Dear, does it an...?"
"Yes, Appa," Garam confird while nodding. "I decided to tolerate Sihyuk’s existence as my partner. I’ll be in your care once again."
Lee Wonjae bead, obviously delighted by the good news. "Just for the record, I’ve never stopped seeing you as my son-in-law, Garam-ah."
"I know that, Appa."
"Appa actually likes you more than he likes , Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk whined. "I won’t be surprised if Appa gives you and Gunwoo more inheritance than ."
Heh.
Garam smirked haughtily.
"Dad!"
Hmm?
Garam imdiately turned to the door when he heard his son’s voice.
The door burst open, and Gunwoo entered the room crying.
Sheena was following the child with a worried look on her face.
"Baby, what’s wrong?" Garam asked worriedly. "Are you hurt?"
"Dad, is Daddy really my daddy?"
Aigooya.
Garam was too stunned to answer his son’s question, so he just picked up his baby and rubbed his back.
After all, it was Song Sihyuk who quickly answered Gunwoo’s question.
"Of course, I’m your daddy," Song Sihyuk said. "What made you think that I’m not your daddy?"
"But Daddy is not Dad’s husband!" Gunwoo said between sobs. "Dad and Daddy are divorced!"
Aigooya.
Garam had an idea about his son’s outburst.
But Song Sihyuk didn’t know about that, so the Alpha couldn’t say anything this ti.
Lee Wonjae, on the other hand, looked at Sheena. "What happened?"
"The young master asked what divorce is, sir," Sheena answered nervously. "When I explained what divorce is, the young master suddenly cried and ran towards here. It seems like I’ve said sothing I shouldn’t have." Sheena then bowed her head. "I’m sorry."
"No, please don’t apologize, Miss Sheena. It’s not your fault," Garam said while shaking his head. Then he looked at Song Sihyuk and explained. "We t Cho Dongpyo before we left the building, Hyung. He told that I have no right to interfere with your business because we’re already divorced. And he said that in front of Gunwoo."
Lee Wonjae gasped, obviously shocked and upset.
Of course, Song Sihyuk’s reaction was worse.
The Alpha’s face darkened, and he released his stinky pheromones.
But when Garam, Gunwoo, and Lee Wonjae scrunched their nose, Song Sihyuk imdiately toned down his pheromones— obviously trying to calm himself down.
"Dad, why is Daddy not your husband?" Gunwoo asked, still crying. "Why did you divorce?" The child then looked at Song Sihyuk, their son’s eyes full of resentnt now. "Daddy, why did you divorce Dad? Do you not love Dad anymore?"
"I love your Dad, Gunwoo-ya. And I never stopped loving him," Song Sihyuk said sternly. "Co here, son— let’s talk."
Oh.
Garam didn’t mind, but...
I hope Hyung isn’t doing this to avoid explaining the issue with Cho Dongpyo.

"GUNWOO, aren’t you sitting a little too far from ?"
Song Sihyuk’s heart broke a little when Gunwoo sat at the other end of the sofa.
The already spacious bedroom had beco bigger now that only the two of them were left there.
Moreover, his son felt so distant from him.
"You’re not my dad’s husband," Gunwoo said, pouting. "You’re not my daddy."
Song Sihyuk wanted to explain to Gunwoo that not all children had married parents, but that wouldn’t make them less of a family.
But he thought he could explain that later.
For now...
"Gunwoo-ya, I will marry your dad again."
That seed to get his son’s attention.
But Gunwoo still shot him a dubious look. "Really, Daddy? You’re not just saying that to make stop being upset?"
Aigooya.
My son is learning new big words every day.
Song Sihyuk pulled out a small box from the inner pocket of his jacket.
Yes, there was a diamond ring inside— a customized ring, the one that he ordered before he lost his mories.
The ring was left in his New York penthouse.
It was the sole reason why he returned there after he retrieved his mories.
"Look at this, Gunwoo-ya," Song Sihyuk said, opening the little box. He chuckled when his son gasped after seeing the beautiful ring inside. "I’m going to propose to your dad."
His son tilted his head to one side, obviously confused. "Propose?"
"That ans I’m going to ask your dad to marry again," Song Sihyuk explained. "Will you help propose to your dad, Gunwoo-ya?"
Gunwoo instantly bead. "I will help you propose to Dad, Daddy!"
***
GARAM was curious about what Song Sihyuk and Gunwoo had talked about earlier.
After all, their son was already back to his usual happy disposition.
But he didn’t get to ask the Alpha about it when he brought up an important matter.
"Garam-ah, first of all, I didn’t lose my mories," Song Sihyuk explained in a serious voice. "I just had to pretend that I did."
Garam knitted his brows, confused. "Why did you have to pretend that you forgot about and our son?"
And that was when Song Sihyuk began explaining everything...
