Chapter 1029 Roger’s Departure

Roger and Ray stayed at the villa for the whole week and felt relieved after seeing that Undercity didn't make a

move.

Since Roger was in charge of most of the miscellaneous things at Lome, not to mention that they had dispatched

many members here because of what happened to Nicole, it was time for Roger and Roy to return after their one-

week stay.

"Boss, there are still matters to be dealt with in Lome, so it's about time we return to check up on them," Roger

informed Nicole.

Nicole nodded while looking at the man. "Sure. You can head back."

Nodding, Roger added, "If there's anything to follow up on, just call me and I'll come straight over."

Nicole looked at his serious expression before moving her gaze from his face to his arm. A long scar ran from his

arm to his wrist. Although they managed to deal with the wound quickly, the scar was permanent.

Nicole's gaze dimmed and she pondered momentarily before asking, "Roger, have you ever thought of quitting?"

Roger was slightly shocked upon hearing the sudden question. A while later, he smiled bitterly as he looked into

Nicole's eyes, explaining, "Boss, people like us are used to spending our days in violence. I'm already feeling a little

restless after staying with you for a week, let alone quitting.

"That answer made Nicole feel upset. There were basically no elderly in Lome, but it wasn't because they didn't

welcome older people. It was because once those members became older, their energy couldn't keep up with them

during missions, and they would accidentally die under the enemy's attack.

Roger wasn't that old. He was in his thirties and in his prime, but he was bound to grow old.

"Even if Lome stops its line of business, I now have the ability to provide for all of you!" Nicole spoke determinedly.

She didn't want to watch Roger and the others die.

When Roger heard what she said, he grinned, revealing his bright white teeth. "Boss, don't fret. We're used to living

dangerous lives. Perhaps it's because we're such that we cherish our lives even more."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Roger, Nicole said nothing. Instead, she sighed softly and murmured, "Then all of

you should be more careful. Tell me if you need money."

"Sure. I understand. Although Colton is shrewd, he's quite capable, so I feel assured knowing that you're with him."

Roger had an indistinguishable gentleness in his voice when he said that.

Nicole didn't say anything and nodded in response.

Seeing the two of them being so inseparable, Colton couldn't take it anymore and came over. He wrapped his arm

around Nicole's waist and looked at Roger. "Return to where you came from and take good care of Lome. You don't

have to worry about anything else. I will protect Nicky."

After Colton finished, he heard Roger snort and mocked, "Protect her? But you didn't manage to do so when she

was at the hospital."

Watching the two grow more hostile toward each other, Nicole spoke up to break the fight. "Alright, alright. Stop

arguing! Roger is going back today, so stop provoking him."

In the end, both men obediently stopped arguing.

Colton arranged for a private plane to send Roger and Roy back. Once they were gone, he smiled in satisfaction as

he held Nicole in his arms and buried his head in the crook of her neck. "They're finally gone. Otherwise, I can't

even be affectionate with you."
