Covetous Sponsorship (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 79

At that moment,

“I wonder if they’ve run into him by now.”

Gi Tae had anticipated Dae Jun would be confronted by a group of people—

because he’d summoned those claiming to have been wronged by him right in front of the gallery.

He’d learned that Dae Jun had repeatedly scammed numerous acquaintances, always pleading for money. He’d then habitually used that borrowed money to gamble again.

Even if Ga Eul had lent him money, the odds were high he’d have gambled it away once more.

Dae Jun was a man who’d lived like this for decades without ever holding down a proper job.

Gi Tae had offered to reveal Dae Jun’s whereabouts on one condition: they’d make him work under the pretense of repaying his debts.

That was the deal Gi Tae struck in exchange for sharing information with the victims.

It wasn’t unreasonable—the group even included the man’s own older brother. He’d even swindled his own family.

Fortunately, his level-headed older brother, desperate to recover his money, immediately agreed and left in even greater haste than Gi Tae to catch the man himself.

“He probably thought I’d been fooled by lies. Though by now, he must realize that wasn’t the case.”

Moreover, the promise he’d made to Ga Eul—not to show his face before her again—was pure fabrication. His desperate, hasty chatter, aimed only at escaping the office, was pitiful to witness.
