## Chapter
- number: 9
- release_date: 2025-03-05

### Summary
The chapter focuses on a highly charged and humiliating interaction between the alpha, Hyeon-Oh, and the omega, Mr. Chu, culminating in a tense cliffhanger inside a restroom. Readers express intense "second-hand embarrassment" as Hyeon-Oh displays a complete lack of self-respect, crying with "heart eyes" and behaving with total submission, which some find endearing and cute while others find it deeply unsettling. Mr. Chu's character is a major point of contention; he is perceived as a manipulative "red flag" who is aroused by Hyeon-Oh's tears and treats him with hypocritical disdain. This has angered a significant portion of the readership, who condemn his controlling behavior. The scene's tension is heightened by the presence of the elderly woman just outside the restroom door, raising concerns that the encounter will be overheard. The chapter heavily leans into its subversion of omegaverse tropes, presenting a "submissive top" and "power bottom" dynamic that leaves readers sharply divided between finding the chemistry intensely hot and being repulsed by the alpha's degradation.
