Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 900

He snapped back to reality, leaning against the window, and shouted angrily as he watched Ryan, who was almost out the door. "Don't worry about me; you should be more concerned about the hefty compensation you owe." Ryan didn't stop for a moment; his voice echoed through the air.

"Ah!" Riley let out a furious roar!

Just then, his phone rang. It was a call from TM Headquarters. Why would they be calling him? He was just a low-level coach at the TM Club, rarely in touch with headquarters. A wave of nervousness hit him, a sense of impending doom he couldn't shake. He took a deep breath and answered the call.

"Hello..."

"Is this Riley? I'm the assistant to the president. I'm calling to let you know you've been expelled from TM Club, effective immediately. From now on, you can't identify yourself as a junior coach for TM Club. If we find out, you know what'll happen."
