She believed that once she spoke, it would certainly be a giveaway.
What should she do?
Pondering, Jocelyn Carrington’s thoughts raced, anxious as ants on a hot pan.
Just at that moment—
"Pastor Instructor."
A clear voice, coming from not far away.
Flossie Wright’s voice.
Coming back to her senses, Jocelyn Carrington instinctively looked up and indeed saw Flossie Wright approaching with an unhurried step.
She seemed to have just returned.
Showing signs of travel, yet not disheveled, her clothes a bit dirty, but neatly arranged, hugging her body tightly, straight and slender.
She appeared very calm, not worried about Becca Reyes who was being treated, nor tense about bumping into the Instructor.
She merely greeted him casually, without even a military salute.
"You’re back?"
Having his words interrupted, Austin Shepherd didn’t mind; instead, the moment he saw Flossie Wright, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Among this group of students, as long as Flossie Wright didn’t cause any trouble, he could handle the chaos caused by everyone else.
Flossie Wright nodded, unaware of what Austin Shepherd was thinking.
Approaching his side, Flossie Wright paused slightly, and with a gentle lift of her eyebrows asked, "How about Becca Reyes?"
"Inside," Jocelyn Carrington spoke up first.
"The situation?" Flossie Wright looked at her.
"...It’s not bad."
Jocelyn Carrington responded after a brief pondering.
"Not bad?" Flossie Wright raised an eyebrow.
Was that the answer?
She had just arrived when she heard people discussing Becca Reyes and Stuart Weston, so she pulled someone aside to ask a few questions. No one knew the specifics, only that both were carried away, so she had come straight here.
She didn’t expect to encounter Jocelyn Carrington being "pressured"; she just took the opportunity to interrupt.
"The Medical Staff haven’t come out yet," Austin Shepherd coughed lightly before continuing, "There’s no danger to her life, but for the specific situation, we still have to wait for them to come out."
Flossie Wright nodded.
After a brief pause, Flossie Wright asked again, "Is it okay to wait here?"
Hesitating for a moment, Austin Shepherd was not overly fussy and replied, "Alright."
Although he didn’t get the answer he wanted, he could guess that there was such a situation at hand. It was a busy time now, and he didn’t have the time to wait here, so he didn’t continue to stay.
Watching him leave, Jocelyn Carrington breathed a long sigh of relief.
She had to admit, when Austin Shepherd was serious, he was quite intimidating.
No sooner had Austin Shepherd left than another oppressive feeling came her way.
"What’s going on?"
Approaching her, Flossie Wright’s eyebrows furrowed, her tone somewhat cold.
In an instant, her heart picked up again.
Watching the person before her, Jocelyn Carrington was on guard and said directly, "I’ve withdrawn."
A dispassionate inquiry.
Quickly, Jocelyn Carrington glanced at her broken right hand.
With a simple glance, Flossie Wright said lightly, "That’s not a reason."
"Why not?" Jocelyn Carrington frowned, "My hand is broken, I can’t participate in future training, why can’t I choose to withdraw?"
Lowering her gaze, Flossie Wright casually swept over her, meeting those stubborn and angry eyes, her eyes flickered slightly, but she did not overlook the flicker of guilt hidden in them.
Lifting her gaze, Flossie Wright said lazily, "Because you’re being foolish."
Jocelyn Carrington clenched her teeth.
"Not foolish?"
Raising an eyebrow, Flossie Wright’s lips curled into a hint of a smile.
Rage surged within her, yet remembering their bond, Jocelyn Carrington suppressed it and asked in a low voice, "Flossie Wright, I’m about to leave, can’t you say something nice?!"
