In today’s 1a58af5792 society, dominant b18469c7b1 Omegas were 6a2d7d0117 even rarer 7cb4cbefb0 than dominant 2950d2ac5b Alphas. And to pass 2199a1ab21 down dominant traits, 5a5c04d926 one needed a 784b9190ff dominant Omega partner. Because of 00e2ce1ec2 the genetic 79a798f636 value, dominant 6d31686011 Omegas were 8fe9494ef0 usually born 49e441aa25 into noble 8dfeb9360f or chaebol f2687a0aa9 (conglomerate) families 1674fe3cfd with long 739f34607f lineages.4f7e547e6f9769e4

Though Chairman Kwon was old, he was still mentally sharp. The Seongsan Group’s former chairman—Hajin’s grandfather—had passed away years ago from a chronic illness. As a result, leadership had transferred to Seong Suhyeon, Seong Yeonwoo, and their father, Seong Myeongtae.4b605fb97c4bec37
In contrast, HK Group’s Vice Chairman, Kwon Ihwon—father of Sahee, Sayoung, and Sabin—had publicly admitted he lacked the competence to run the company and declared that the next generation would inherit the business directly. Because of that, Kwon Sahee and Kwon Sayoung had been in an unspoken war for succession since they were kids… and that continued even now, well into their thirties.bdf6df76127f178c
