Absolute Advantage Chapter 69.2

“Well, that's a positive change. By the way, are you still going on a date tomorrow?”

“No.”

“It's the weekend”

“Yes, it's the due date.”

“Date? Who?”

“Seo Kwonjin.”

“If it's Seo Kwon-jin…….” Li Yu-yen, who felt a sense of frustration with the familiar name, was surprised to realize Seo Kwon-jin's identity.

“It's Seo Haewon's mother. Wait, shouldn't you go together?”

“She told me not to come.”

“That's probably out of courtesy!” Li Yu-yen hit his chest as if he felt stuffy.

“It's Chairman Seo's order. I want to comfort Haewon and score points with her though.”

“Oh, well, you can't help it.”

By the way, the latter, about wanting to score points, must have been genuine, Li Yu-yen thought.

He is so cold-hearted to his own mother, so can he sincerely mourn as Hae-won's mother?

'How long has it been since I came to my parents' house?'

The morning air was chilly because the cold of winter has not gone away yet. Haewon stared at the pond with thin ice. Employees were breaking the thin ice with sharp sticks and arranging the water plants between the rocks surrounding the pond.

The main house called 'Seo Hwa Ok' consisted of traditional hanok, modern houses, and small ponds.

In fact, Seo Hwok was the name of a hanok house, which later became a term referring to the entire extended main house after Seo Woo-hee purchased adjacent land.

Haewon grew up in a modern house with her sisters.

Since the death of the first chairman, her grandmother, the hanok has been used only as Chairman Seo's personal office. The only day Haewon stepped into Hanok was on the day of the memorial service.

And today, it was the anniversary of Seo Kwon-jin.

Chairman Seo took care of her sister's ancestral rites even before she collected Haewon. Following the mother's will during her lifetime, the ritual was held simply without following complicated procedures.

At the time of the ritual, Chairman Seo, Sera, and Haewon stood in front of the statue. Chairman Seo peeled a peach that Seo Kwon-jin liked on the spot and put a piece down in front of the portrait.

“The peach that you liked. I don't know if you'll like it now.” Chairman Seo muttered to herself.

Soon she closed her mouth and stared at Seo Kwon-jin, who was stuffed in the portrait.

Seo Kwon-jin, who had a bright smile in the picture, was full of life. On the contrary, Seo Woo-hee's face was as pale as a dead person.

Originally, Chairman Seo looked younger than her age, but today she looked exceptionally haggard as if she had aged up to her dead sister.

When the memorial service was over, the three moved to a modern house and ate. The food that came up was also liked by Seo Kwon-jin during her lifetime.

“It's been a long time since we've eaten together at home.” Chairman Seo said.

Sera glanced at the empty seat next to her. Her mother didn't care about Ellier, and she never mentioned her today.

“The meal must be over, let's finish what we didn't finish last time.”

Sera and Hae-won looked at Chairman Seo at the same time.

Last time they said…….

“I'm trying to move up the wedding schedule and have a child as soon as possible.”

Chairman Seo's calm eyes slowly showed anger.

“I can't wait to see the stockholders take the lead on this marriage.” She murmured in a ferocious voice.

[The couple may conceive and raise their children with the consent of adults of both families.]

Chairman Seo recalled the clause written in the contract in her head.

The JS brothers only maintained a political marriage, but wanted no children. It was the same on the Seohwa side.

In this situation, neither side wanted a child between Hae-won and Adam. In the first place, this political marriage wasn't meant to be a successor. There was only a purpose to connect the two groups.

“How can we..….”

Sera was conscious of her surroundings and blurted out the end of her words. Even Seo Hwok's employees did not know that Haewon was an omega.

“I'm going to use Sera's genes.” Chairman Seo answered with her head raised.

Haewon's heart sank. Sera was as surprised as Haewon, but she soon shut up with a face that regained her composure.

“Then it will be your son who will inherit the JS trade in the future, Sera.”

Chairman Seo stared at Sera.

“Will you be satisfied with this?”

“Yes, it's my mother's decision, so I'll obey her without a word.” Sera replied politely.

Haewon's intention was not important. Even if the subject of pregnancy is her fiance.

“Chairman…….” Although Hae-won looked at her with incredible eyes, Chairman Seo didn't change her expression. On the contrary, she even raised one eyebrow to provoke her.

“What's the problem? It's artificial insemination, so there's no fear of being caught. As long as we're quiet about it.”

“You don't look so happy. Why? You can't raise your sister's child like your own?”

“I….”
