Maybe. He could just not want a serious relationship that has nothing to do with his family. Not everyone wants a relationship at that age (college years). He had avoided attachments to an omega due to pheromones influence and the probability of being bonded and impregnating an omega by being w/ betas only. And some still cheats or just wants no-strings attached relationships or are polyamorous or polygamous or are uncommitted well into their adult years. Also, since now he found out the has a kid, on top of being bonded to an omega, he has an option to be with the omega who he had been bonded to, as well.
I may be too optimistic but honestly I don’t hate the story and where it may be going. I think Ian (can’t remember his Korean name) had family circumstances that kept him from committing to the mc when they were abroad and now he’s worked it out enough to where he’s trying to win him back in his own twisted way. He’s much better than some alphas in these other omegaverse stories
