She clenched her fists.
Mariana Buck’s eyes lifted, sweeping towards the back of Flossie Wright’s head, an inexplicable surge of murderous intent igniting in her gaze.
Flossie Wright, you’re really something.
Noticing her stare, Sandy Cruz’s eyes slightly narrowed, then he asked abruptly, "You’re minding my business now?"
Startled, Mariana frowned, then said, "We’re friends, I don’t want you to be deceived by her."
Sandy’s lips curled unexpectedly, his low voice carrying an inexplicable implication.
Mariana was slightly shocked.
She was indeed avoiding discussing the arranged marriage with Sandy.
Apart from the arranged marriage, they were indeed friends.
They were childhood friends, and Mariana’s impression of Sandy was very good: mature beyond his years, sensible, and extremely capable in any field.
He was the kind of person other families would use as a role model to educate their children.
Destined to be illustrious all his life.
Yet, to such an outstanding person, she just wasn’t attracted.
The two were paired as childhood sweethearts, and people had said they were a matching set since they were little. As a child, she didn’t care much and actually enjoyed Sandy’s company.
Undeniably, being with Sandy, one could always learn a lot.
Unfortunately, as an adult, she met that person.
The one who made her resolute to destroy the arranged marriage.
From that time on, she consciously kept her distance from Sandy.
For that person, she applied to the Military Academy, and after graduation, she didn’t look back and joined the Forces, never expecting Sandy to follow the same path as her.

Sandy was a year older than she was, yet he was two ranks above her, having applied to the Military Academy two years earlier, and then continued on to graduate studies, thus arriving at the Forces a year later than her.
Reportedly, he specifically requested to join the Navy.
The same Base as her.
Two years later, he came here with her.
Thinking about it, Mariana remembered the pressure and rumors she bore.
"He gave up his prospects to be with you, what more do you want?"
"Sandy is so good to you, why aren’t you satisfied?"
"Leaving the excellent Sandy for someone who doesn’t even want you, what are you thinking?!"
Just the thought gave Mariana a headache.
Meanwhile, Sandy didn’t wait for her answer, casually asking, "Your birthday is coming up, what gift do you want?"
Mariana looked at him strangely.
That’s right, this was Sandy.
A simple and decisive person, he never intentionally created surprises or romance.
It had always been like this, your birthday is coming up, what gift do you want, I’ll get it for you if I can.
Not a bit of romance!
After a pause, Mariana suddenly said, "BUCK184."
Sandy raised an eyebrow, looking at her curiously, and after a moment, said straightforwardly, "Can’t get it."
"Flossie Wright has it."
With her arms crossed, Mariana looked ahead, right where Flossie Wright was standing.
"That’s hers," Sandy’s expression darkened.
"Aren’t you friends?"
Mariana’s face showed a mocking smile.
"..." Squinting, Sandy seemed to be checking if she was joking.
After a while, Sandy called out with a stern face, "Mariana Buck."
"You don’t need to target her," Sandy enunciated each word.
"Why not?" Mariana’s expression turned cold.
"She’s a good person," Sandy said flatly.
She couldn’t deceive him, nor would she try to.
