Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 250

At the side of the lobby, near the interview setup, there wasn't a chair in sight. So, fans of the EW Club had gathered, standing, their eyes glued to the scene unfolding before them.

At this moment, the fans, both men and women, had tears brimming in their eyes as they watched Floyd. The male fans were trying hard to put on a brave face, not uttering a word, while the female fans covered their mouths, tears streaming down their cheeks.

Cordelia was momentarily taken aback, unsure of what was happening.

Yates, however, turned his gaze towards Floyd.

The host, clearly shocked by Floyd's recent statement, asked, "What did you say?"

Floyd, ever the charismatic presence, his voice smooth and deep, said, "I said, the five of us from EW Club are retiring, effective today."

Yates, who was about to approach, stopped dead in his tracks, disbelief written all over his face.

Fans from below shouted, "Dark Lord, are you abandoning us?!"

The host inquired further, "Including yourself?"

Floyd nodded, "Yes."

He lowered his gaze, lifting the trophy in his hand, "I'm fortunate, retiring at the peak of glory, unlike Waller and the Archer who were forced to retire."

The fans below protested loudly, "No way, Dark Lord, you can't retire!"

The host then asked, "Is it because all your teammates are retiring, that you've decided to retire as well?"

Floyd shook his head, "No, it's for personal reasons."

The crowd erupted, "What personal reasons? Why? Dark Lord, we love you so much, how can you leave us?!"

Floyd lowered his eyes again, taking the microphone from the host, and spoke, "Five years ago, on the first of February, the EW Club was formed, and I became a member."
