Chapter 48
Dokgo Han descended from the stage and approached where Hwa Eun-wol stood. He couldn’t help but be curious—the one who accepted the wager was here with another participant. Especially since the servants had already revealed the guest’s identity. Yet Dokgo Han tilted his head in puzzlement.
‘No way? He bet thirty thousand nyang because of that guy?’
Approaching, Dokgo Han stared at Danwooseong and Hwa Eunwol with an expression of utter disbelief before asking.
“Young Master Hua.”
“Why?”
“You didn’t bet a fortune on the merchant’s son, did you?”
Hwa Eun-wol deliberately cupped her hand to her ear as if she couldn’t hear well.
“What?”
When Hua Eun-wol blatantly ignored him, Dokgo Han shook his head and said.
“You’re the next Supreme Commander of the Imperial Council? That’s utterly ridiculous.”
Dukgo Han openly mocked Hwa Eun-wol’s judgment, and Cheol Myeong-ho muttered fearlessly.
“What the hell is that moron talking about?”
Cheol Myeong-ho’s crude words echoed Dan Woo-seong’s inner thoughts. Given the place, he remained silent, but Cheol Myeong-ho had no such manners.
Though they were quite a distance away, the sharp-eared Dokgo Han stopped abruptly, and a chilling silence fell.
“······.”
Not only the Hwaseon siblings, but even Dan Wooseong stared blankly at Cheol Myeongho.
It was definitely a line crossed with his harsh words.
In a way, he was truly a remarkable troublemaker. He was the sort of man who had to cause trouble at least once a day to feel satisfied.
