Love at the Wrong Table novel Chapter 2027

Chapter 2027 

Gwain and Hank both stiffened in shock. This guy certainly knows how to put 

on a show! 

“I don’t like people like you. If what you say doesn’t please me, I might just 

teach you a lesson,” Gwain threatened, his aura intensifying, intimidating 

Gautier. 

Both men held mutual disdain for one another. With personalities like theirs, it 

was impossible for them to get along. But Gautier had no choice but to lower 

himself, as he needed to make use of this self–important man. Smiling, he 

replied, “I’m here to give you the Dragon Tome, Mr. Gwain.” 

“What?!” Hank couldn’t help but gasp in disbelief. 

Although Gwain didn’t say anything, his expression revealed an even greater 

shock than Hank’s. After the initial surprise, a flood of joy surged within him, 

though it was tainted with suspicion. Before Hank could ask any questions, 

Gwain beat him to it, demanding, “Are you telling the truth?”

“I’m just a simple scholar, not even strong enough to harm a fly. Would I really 

dare come to the Lannister Estate and lie to the great Gwain Lannister, the 

number one martial artist in Chanaea?” Gautier replied calmly, his smile 

never faltering. 

“Alright, hand over the tome to Mr. Gwain then!” Hank demanded, reaching 

out his hand. But Gautier merely smiled, his expression tinged with disdain. 

Gwain, sharper than Hank, immediately asked, “If you really hand me the 

Dragon Tome, whatever you want from the Lannister Family, I will consider it. 

“You’re as clever as they say, Mr. Gwain. No wonder you’re hailed as the best 

in the world!” Gautier had studied Gwain’s personality thoroughly, and he 

knew that repeatedly flattering him with the title of “the best” would only 

inflate his ego and increase his willingness to negotiate. 

“Take a look and see if this is the Dragon Tome,” Gautier said as he took out 

an elegantly crafted book, its cover embossed with the words “Dragon Tome.” 

This was something he had meticulously written out based on what Roselynn 

had recited the previous day, made to look as authentic as possible.

Gwain, still cautious, took the Dragon Tome and began examining it. 

Hank, watching from the side, couldn’t figure out Gautier’s motives. Why 

would someone come to the Lannister Estate with something so valuable, 

completely unafraid that Gwain might simply take it and brush off the whole 

exchange as a rightful return of stolen property? 

But the next moment, Hank saw Gwain’s expression shift. Not only that, but 

Gwain seemed to be testing it out. Suddenly, he broke into an elated grin. “It’s 

real! This is the true Dragon Tome!” Unlike the fake one from before, this 

technique generated powerful internal strength without clouding the mind. 

“Good, as long as Mr. Gwain can confirm its authenticity,” Gautier said 

smoothly. “But this is only half of the Dragon Tome. Consider it a down 

payment. If you want the other half, you’ll have to do something for me.” 

It finally dawned on Hank why Gautier had been so confident–this was his 

leverage! 

Gwain, recognizing this for what it was a standard business transaction-

smirked coldly. “What do you want me to do for you?” 

Gautier’s smile grew more mysterious. Instead of answering outright, he 

leaned in close to Gwain and whispered in his ear. 

“What? You want me to kill him?!” Gwain’s face changed drastically, his eyes 

filled with disbelief as he stared at Gautier. He had initially thought this man 

was a small–time player, but it turned out he was a venomous snake lurking 

in the shadows. 

“Mr. Gwain, the deal has already begun. I’ve given you the deposit. Now, it’s up to you whether or not you want the full reward. Goodbye!” Gautier had thrown 

out the bait and saw no need to linger. Without another word, he left the 

Lannister Estate, not bothering to sit down for tea or further discussion. 

That same evening, Gautier made his way to Teddy’s residence. That night, Teddy was staying in his villa located in Zone 2 of Zovince. The Tanner family’s 

villa wasn’t ostentatious, but it was undeniably elegant. While the exterior was 

understated, the interior was meticulously designed with intricate 

craftsmanship throughout.

“Mr. Tanner, I’ve come tonight to present you with a small gift,” Gautier said as 

he entered the room where Teddy was busy with his work. 

“Haha, Gautier, you might not know this about me, but I always refuse gifts!” 

Teddy said with a chuckle, setting his work aside to greet Gautier with a 

smile, 

“Mr. Tanner, this isn’t a bribe or any kind of under–the–table gift. It’s simply a 

token of my appreciation, something of personal value that holds no 

commercial worth,” Gautier replied, smiling knowingly. He had encountered 

enough politicians and businesspeople to understand the game. Most 

corrupt officials liked to play the part of the upstanding figure, and those who 

committed the worst deeds disguised themselves often as righteous 

individuals. 

“Haha, well, in that case, I’m curious to see what you’ve brought me!” Teddy 

laughed warmly, like a kindly elder. 

“Mr. Tanner, take a look,” Gautier said, pulling out the half of the Dragon Tome. 

Unlike the one he had given to Gwain, this version wasn’t labeled or

presented in an ornate fashion. Yet, despite its plain appearance, Teddy 

recognized it immediately and exclaimed in shock, “This… is the Dragon 

Tome?!” 

“Mr. Tanner, you truly live up to your reputation as Mr. Lestrange described- 

sharp in both intellect and martial prowess. I’m in awe,” Gautier flattered him.

“Haha, Gautier, you’re quite something yourself!” Teddy complimented in 

return. I’ve heard that Gwain Lannister tried everything, even risking his life, to 

obtain this tome but couldn’t. Yet here you are, managing to acquire it so 

easily. It proves that in this day and age, brains are more effective than 

martial prowess!” 

“You flatter me, Mr. Tanner,” Gautier replied humbly. “I was simply lucky to get
