A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1547

Hunk spoke in a calm manner. He didn't even lift an eyebrow out of curiosity.

Upon seeing this, the old butler felt worried. He tried his best to keep his mouth shut. But in the end, he knew he had to voice out his concerns. “Shouldn't we be stopping him? The young master might do—“

Before the butler could finish his words, Hunk decisively intervened. “Why should we stop him? Because he's taking over a casino?“

The old butler could only sigh at Hunk's response. He couldn't understand why his master didn't seem to care at all. As a result, he continued his words from earlier. “I'm afraid that the young master's actions are for the wrong reason. Especially since the Ke Group has always upheld its clean reputation. We've never even set foot on the grey area before.“

At that moment, Hunk felt amused. With a subtle smile on his face, he replied, “You don't seem to get my point, do you? Ask yourself this: would Louis let Bill walk all over him?“

“Mr. Hunk, are you saying what I think you're saying?“ the butler asked in surprise when he realized that Hunk knew exactly what was going on.

“I know what Louis is doing and I trust him,“ Hunk uttered with keen eyes that were as sharp as a knife. His tone was just like on a normal day, showing his confidence in his son.

From the moment Hunk heard the news, he immediately knew what Louis was up to. Even if he wanted to stop his son, he knew that there was not a sliver of a chance of doing so.

“Raising a kind and righteous man is easier compared to an ungrateful wolf, don't you agree?“ Hunk asked with a meaningful smile on his face. After that, he casually took a sip of his tea like there was nothing wrong in the world.

A faint fragrance of tea suddenly surrounded the air around them. Right at that moment, the butler finally understood what Hunk meant.

With a smile, the butler answered, “I see. I'm so sorry for underestimating Mr. Ke's capabilities. I promise it won't happen again, master.“

Hunk didn't respond to his sincere apology. Instead, he reminded his dear butler in a low voice, “There's no need for us old men to interfere in matters like this anymore. The only time that we should ask Louis to stop is if he puts the Ke Group at risk of completely collapsing.“

The old butler nodded in agreement and replied, “I understand. I'll send someone to watch him.“

When everything was settled, a confident smile made its way onto Hunk's face. He gently placed his teacup on the table, and then cleared his throat.

“There comes a day when we have to give the younger generation the chance to carve out their own path. If we stop them from doing what they truly want in life, they'll only end up hating us.“

Hunk's inspirational words brought a smile to the butler's face. He quickly replied, “You're right, sir!“

After letting out a sigh of relief, he added, “I hope Mr. Ke can get what he wants.“

After talking about Louis for a while, Hunk wanted to play some more chess. “Just forget about it for now. Let's play a few more games.“

While scratching his head, the old butler gave a bitter smile and said, “Please sir, let's take a break. You've beaten me more than a dozen times already.“

With that, Hunk let go of the chess pieces and responded, “All right. Let's call it a day. But you'd better go back and practice more before we play again.“

The old butler breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the study room with the chessboard.

As soon as Hunk was left alone, his face showed a bit of concern. While his eyes stared at the floor, he whispered to himself, “Show me how far you can go, son.“

A few nights later, countless men were having fun in an underground casino.

Out of the blue, a man wearing a dashing suit and leather shoes appeared. He swaggered his way past security, and then sat down at the bar. As soon as he did, he ordered the waiter to get him some tea in an extremely rude manner.

Unfortunately for the waiter, anyone in the casino who had money to spend was to be respected. Everyone there who saw the mysterious man speak in a rude way hated him. But no one dared to tell him off; they all just despised him in their hearts and continued to play.

When the man was finished with his drink, he walked towards the gambling table in the middle of the hall. Then, he threw out a black card with gold accents and shouted, “One million. I'm in.“

His bold gesture attracted everyone's attention. Since there were a million dollars on the line, not a single person in that casino wanted to miss what was going to happen.

Even though anyone who came to the casino to play was obviously rich, betting that much in a single move was something that only happened a few times in a year.

The manager took notice of this mysterious man's lavishness and deemed him as a distinguished guest. With a smile, he tended to the man and brought him a chair. He even ordered someone to get their brand new customer a drink. After all, not every rich man that came there had a black card. In the manager's mind, the man must be a VIP whom he hadn't come across before.

A few moments later, the beautiful female dealer began to hand everyone their cards.

Every person around the table waited in anticipation. When the other cards were dealt, everyone gasped in shock.
