    CHAPTER 1029 ROGER’S DEPARTURE


    Roger and Ray stayed at the vi 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 misceneous 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''lle 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 whileter, he smiled bitterly as he


    looked into Nicole''s eyes, exining, "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 wee older people. It was because once those members became older, their energy


    couldn''t keep up with them during missions, and they would identally 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 ne 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."
