On Fire novel Chapter 10

I turned around and looked at him while my heart was racing. I didn’t know whether he knew about what happened last night. If he somehow did, would he stand up for Jordan? That bastard wouldn’t just swallow that dissatisfaction silently without doing anything.

“Mr. Chan, is there anything else?” I smiled sheepishly.

“I heard that you are pretty unhappy working under Toby? If you think you are not earning enough, you can come back to my club.”

I was really shocked that Cooper was inviting me to work for him again. The pain and suffering inflicted by the Golden Emperor were too much for me to recover from. I would never want to go back again.

“You should forget about the past. I see highly of your ability, and I hope you can come back.” He said after a pause.

“Thank you, Mr. Cooper, but let’s forget about it. I am going to retire from this scene very soon too.” I always held true to my goal of restarting again, and I would definitely leave this damn place.

Cooper revealed a strange smile and said, “I see. I won’t insist then. This is my newest name card, you can always call me if you change your mind. The doors of the Golden Emperor are always welcoming you.”

“…Got it!”

I accepted the name card while nodding before leaving with my heart full of suspicion. It had been a year since Cooper last got in touch with me, so why did he suddenly become so flattering? Did he really not know about the matter of Jordan getting battered to the point of bleeding all over?

I stole a glance at Molly and discovered that she was glaring at me with a hideous expression on her face. Her gaze was so cold that she seemed like she wanted to swallow me whole. I was really perplexed by their behaviours. What were they scheming?

One of them looked cheerful, while the other was looking really upset.
