Chapter 294: The Cold-Blooded Iron-Hearted Father of the Yangzhudong Clan
Dong Chae-won, the Iron-Hearted Cold-Blooded Papa, known by the common folk as the pillar of the Yangju Dong Family, gazed at the eastern sky with a look full of worry.
Although she had sent her beloved collateral granddaughter, Dong Soun, ahead, she could not be certain that she would meet Seolpung in advance and successfully lead them to safety away from the bandits.
She was well aware that Dong Jung-seo, the head of the household, had secretly been nurturing bandits all along, and that he had used those bandits to eliminate her own people.
But even knowing this, she could not openly defy Dong Jung-seo.
She knew full well that the moment she openly clashed with Dong Jung-seo, it would lead to internal strife within the Yangju Dong family.
‘It’s not something that can be resolved simply by overthrowing the head of the clan. There are quite a few within the Dong family who follow him. If you try to overthrow the head of the clan, it will inevitably lead to countless members of the Dong family spilling each other’s blood.’
That was why Dong Chaewon could only watch Dong Joongseo, suffering in silence like a mute.
She couldn’t bring herself to dismantle the Yangju Dong family with her own hands.
As someone who cherished and loved the family more than anyone else, she could not further endanger the Yangju Dong Clan, already in decline.
‘Brother….’
Dong Chae-won recalled the face of her older brother, Dong Gyu-ram, who had vanished long ago with Seolpung, leaving her only a single letter.
