Chapter 124
How did he know?
I stared at Park Yoon-sung in surprise, unable to hide my reaction for a moment. He watched me calmly. I had intended to be upfront from the start, but his taking the lead threw me off. All I could do was ask him, completely taken aback.
"How did you know?"
But as soon as I asked, I wanted to bite my tongue. Park Yoon-sung was perceptive—he probably had already figured things out from the clues I’d dropped.
By asking such a foolish question, I almost confirmed my connection to Sim Dante. I still had a long way to go before I could negotiate properly. I bit my tongue again as these thoughts ran through my mind.
“I had my suspicions ever since you slipped out of the temporary accommodation.”
“…I see.”
No wonder he hadn’t pressed the issue relentlessly. It seemed I had been in Park Yoon-sung's palm from the very beginning. When I was feeling conflicted, he asked me softly.
"Did you get this item from Sim Dante as well?"
