“I think I’ll head home early today.”
The eyes of the office staff, including Team Leader Nam, widened at Gyo Hwan’s earlier-than-usual departure.
“Is there something going on at your home?”
Team Leader Nam hurriedly followed him and pressed the elevator button.
“Tell Teacher Bom that I’m on my way and to wait in the study.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Having said that, when Gyo Hwan returned to Sangrimwon, he first stopped by the main hall.
Hyo Jin, who had been informed earlier, had left her spot temporarily. He checked a box on her desk, but as expected, the necklace was not inside.
‘Ah, that Seung Yul kid. No matter how much he likes Roy. How could he take the teacher’s necklace?’
While sighing, he placed the necklace he had taken back from Sylvia earlier that day into the box when he heard the sound of someone entering a passcode from outside.
‘Is it Teacher Bom?’
Trying to surprise, he discreetly leaned against a wall where a built-in wardrobe was.
But, the person who opened the door and came in wasn’t Teacher Bom, but Seung Yul, wasn’t it?
Gyo Hwan, who had thought Seung Yul gave the necklace to Roy impulsively because of his fondness, felt blindsided when he witnessed Seung Yul trying to put an identical necklace inside the box.
“Follow me.”
In the annex basement, which the employees use for physical training, Gyo Hwan, trying to create an atmosphere of fear, instructed Team Leader Nam to lock the door.
However, rather than shivering in fear, Seung Yul clenched his fists, stood tall, and glared back.
The atmosphere felt more like he was there for a showdown rather than to get scolded.
“How does it feel, deceiving your father all this while?”
Gyo Hwan asked, starting the confrontation.
“You deceived me too!”
Seung Yul responded defiantly, looking like a fierce young tiger.
“Why did you do that?”
Do I have to repeat myself?
“Why did you steal the teacher’s necklace?”
Gyo Hwan, with his patience wearing thin, questioned him further.
“I didn’t steal it.”
I bought an identical one to give to Roy.
“You did steal. You didn’t get the teacher’s permission.”
“Think whatever you want.”
“Ah…”
From the side, Team Leader Nam, who had been silently watching, let out a suppressed sigh.
If it were in the past, Gyo Hwan would’ve immediately asked for a switch. But he took another deep breath, trying to muster more patience.
“When did you find out? That your dad and the teacher are in love?”
“Why wouldn’t I know?”
Even the dog next door probably knows.
“Did you secretly check my phone? Last time we went on a trip, you borrowed it claiming to call grandma. When we went on the trip, you spilled cereal filled with milk on the teacher, and even put snow in her shoes. All of that was you, right?”
Seeing Seung Yul turning his head away and not responding, Gyo Hwan realized this couldn’t be resolved with kind words.
“Go get the rod.”
As if issuing a serious command.
“A rod? Not a switch, but a rod?”
While Seung Yul remained unflinching, Team Leader Nam, watching from the side, seemed restless.
“Look at what he’s doing now. Do you think hitting him with a switch will work? Last time, the switch that Driver Seo brought broke with just one use.”
Gyo Hwan, as if to instill fear, took off his coat and jacket, and removed the watch wrapped around his wrist, placing it on the pool table.
What am I doing in front of my child?
“I truly love you, but I can’t stand by and watch you make these mistakes any longer.”
Unaware that his father was giving him a chance to reflect, Seung Yul curled one corner of his lips in a mocking smile.
It was as if he wasn’t waiting for his father’s forgiveness, but rather anticipating an explosive outburst.
“Choi Seung Yul. Have I been too lenient with you? As you know, I’m not that forgiving.”
“I never asked for your leniency.”
I’m holding back because I want to look good in front of the teacher.
“Seung Yul…!”
Have you lost your mind? From the side, Team Leader Nam bit his lower lip, as if urging him not to provoke any further.
“Choi Seung Yul. What are you doing? I told you to get the rod.”
Blinded by love and oblivious to everything else, Seung Yul defiantly picked up a pool cue that was leaning against the pool table.
“You want to be hit with that?”
Seeing Seung Yul holding the pool cue, which was taller than himself, Team Leader Nam was in such shock that he nearly fainted.
“Seung Yul. I remember being hit with that when I was in school. It really hurts. Even a glancing blow can leave you unable to sit for a week. You might not even be able to sit at a dining table to eat, let alone study at your desk…!”
“Team Leader Nam, please wait outside.”
This is between Seung Yul and me.
Gyo Hwan was equally adamant in this standoff. If he backed down now, he’d be pushed around for the rest of his life.
“How many hits do you want?”
Rolling up the sleeves of his shirt, the thick tendons on Gyo Hwan’s forearm became more pronounced.
“One hundred.”
“What, one hundred?!”
Team Leader Nam glared at Seung Yul.
Are you really trying to face off against your own father?
