“Is something wrong?” My voice was completely subdued. I must’ve slept too deeply. “Yes. Please get up quickly.” At Baek Mugyeong’s urging, I rubbed my eyes and tried to rise, only to freeze. The moment I sensed something was off, I realized I wasn’t wearing any clothes. And at the same time, I noticed this wasn’t my bedroom. This was Baek Mugyeong’s bedroom. Even though I’d only been in here once before, both before and after regression, I immediately recognized the…-

“I can smell your pheromones right now.” “What?” “I don’t want to say it twice. Stop with this pathetic act immediately.” I frowned under his look of contempt. Usually, alphas and omegas couldn’t easily detect their own pheromone scent, and there was no way to tell if Baek Mugyeong was lying or not. But he wasn’t the type to lie. “Are you sure there’s a scent?” “There is.” “I took my suppressant this morning though…” Every morning, without fail, I…-

Among Baek Jinseok’s four children, the only one who was a beta was Baek Daehan, and I had never once seen Baek Jinseok treat him warmly. The reason he had Baek Yeongseop’s only daughter sent away to her maternal family was also simply because she was a beta. That, too, was Baek Jinseok’s will. The same went for Baek Mugyeong. Though he was an alpha grandson, his manifestation rate had been extremely low. So when his parents passed away, Baek Jinseok had left him in the care of his maternal…-

The official cause of death was listed as an accident, but there had been rumors it was actually suicide. It was an unspoken rule in the family never to bring up the eldest grandson’s failed marriage, yet Baek Mugyeong had just broken it. Naturally, Im Songyoon’s face flushed red with indignation. “What… what did you just say?” “And it was Uncle who chose both my and my cousin’s spouses. Grandfather approved them. If you speak carelessly about their families, you’ll be making…-

I carried on with my schedule as usual. After work, I headed to the academy for class. When I got home, I checked the footage from the small camera I had set up in the dressing room and reviewed the stock market trends. Life was back to normal. From the end of the year into the beginning of the next, a string of holidays came one after another. Christmas, New Year’s, and Lunar New Year were all packed into the span of a single month. When my parents were alive, I was just a student and played…-

There wasn’t much that could be done for a bruise. Cold compresses and applying cream for a day or two was the best that could be done. The doctor who issued the two-week injury report said that it would heal faster with laser treatment a few days later. After booking an appointment for two days later, I picked up my medication at the pharmacy. The ride home was cloaked in silence. When Baek Mugyeong parked in the basement garage, I couldn’t hold back my anxiety any longer and blurted…-

His academy was nearly a subway stop away from here. Unless he had come looking on purpose, running into him so precisely like this was nearly impossible, making it all the more suspicious. “Yes. I’ve been doing well. You look good too, teacher. I have class now, so I’ll be going.” “Wait, we need to talk.” “Sorry?” “I told you, didn’t I? Everything went to shit because of you.” I had been trying to get away from Lee Jeongwook as quickly as possible, so his sudden…-

It had only been a few months since my regression. I’d been digging around relentlessly, and eventually, I found something. I didn’t let it sit. Instead, I used my lunch break to meet my biological father. —The intern? Heard he’s the child of a mistress. —Really? —For real? —Yeah. —I heard that too. —Wow. And he still works here? That’s bold. He must know himself. —He doesn’t resemble the Director at all. —So the Director raised a mistress’s child all…-

“How about you, Director?” “Me? Of course I was summoned by my elder brother. Drank too much, and now I’ve got heartburn,” Baek Daehan replied, rubbing his stomach with a cheeky grin. “What are you going to do?” “Report him, obviously. Why? Were you worried I’d follow my brother’s orders?” “Yes.” Baek Mugyeong answered honestly. If Baek Yeongseop had made a move, Baek Jaehan wouldn’t be staying quiet either. It was only natural for him to pressure someone of Baek…-

Baek Yeongseop, annoyed by the hassle, insisted on meeting that night, but Baek Mugyeong firmly refused. In the end, they agreed to meet for lunch the next day and ended the call. When he glanced down at the phone’s glowing screen and saw how long the call had lasted, Baek Mugyeong frowned. He knew the future, at least for the next two years. He especially remembered details about the U.S. economy, and in just two months, he had already made an enormous amount of money. But gold alone couldn’t…-
