Upon seeing Flossie Wright approach, the talkative Stuart Weston began to talk in a sarcastic and mocking tone, his ridicule and teasing being particularly obvious.
Ever since Stuart Weston made a "false promise" with Flossie Wright and then was coldly put in his place by her, he had two extreme contrasting impressions of her. On one hand, he thought Flossie was clever and capable, but on the other hand, he felt that she was too ruthless and her character was not trustworthy.
Therefore, Comrade Stuart Weston, who didn’t have a great character to begin with, admired Flossie for being a worse character than him, yet disliked that she was even more unlikable than him.
Perhaps it was because they all came from the same platoon of recruits, Stuart Weston, Calvin Ramos, and Jocelyn Carrington sat close to each other. Surrounded by familiar faces, they shifted their attention onto Flossie as she arrived.
Frankly speaking, among the recruits, the one who left the deepest impression on them was Flossie. And here, the one who amazed them the most was still Flossie. From being a "waste" in the recruit platoon who was good for nothing to now, a "sharpshooter" with divine shooting skills; such a strong contrast was enough to make them gaze in admiration.
Calvin Ramos’ attitude was completely opposite to Stuart Weston’s. He greeted Flossie with a warm, gentle smile, though his aloof gaze indicated some distance.
Flossie, leisurely walking over, first nodded politely to Calvin Ramos, then completely ignored the presence of Stuart Weston. Her eyes fell on Jocelyn Carrington at another side, and she asked with a slight frown, "Where’s Janice Wood?"
Flossie had noticed Janice Wood’s absence early on. If it had been an ordinary day, even if she hadn’t seen Janice Wood, she wouldn’t have asked Jocelyn Carrington about her. But today, after seeing Janice Wood’s condition, she inevitably worried about her situation.
Moreover, it wouldn’t hurt to ask Jocelyn Carrington a question. At most, it would just waste a bit of time.
Listening to Flossie’s question, although Jocelyn Carrington had a straight face, her heart was inexplicably moved. She had only seen Janice Wood following Flossie around when they were in the recruit platoon. It was rarely seen that Flossie actively did something for Janice Wood. And of course, she never asked for Janice Wood’s help. Flossie’s aloof and cold image has been deeply ingrained in people’s hearts, so Jocelyn Carrington really couldn’t imagine Flossie being so loyal.
The reason she defended Flossie today is because she felt it was remarkable that Flossie could do so much for Janice Wood. Therefore, she took a stand from a righteous perspective and helped her.
At that moment, Jocelyn Carrington didn’t hide anything, "She has a fever, and went back to sleep."
Flossie pondered for a moment, just as Nathan Foster’s roaring gunfire sound made her ears hurt. She frowned slightly and casually patted Jocelyn Carrington’s shoulder, "Come, help me."
Jocelyn Carrington was extremely uncomfortable being near Flossie. Just as she was about to ask a question, she saw Flossie turn around and leave, heading straight for the back door of the cafeteria.
She really didn’t consider her an outsider!
Jocelyn Carrington bit her teeth, her face filled with confusion. Although she didn’t want to give any face to Flossie, seeing her calmly leaving, she still reluctantly followed. However, her expression was not very willing.
Entering the kitchen, Flossie instantly saw Yvonne Watson circling around anxiously in the kitchen. Her face showed worry as she paced in circles with a frown. Her delicate and weak wife-like appearance was extremely discordant with the camouflage military uniform she wore, giving an exceptionally inharmonious feeling.
Noticing someone coming in, Yvonne Watson was startled, lifting her eyes to look over. Only when she saw Flossie did she relax. She seemed genuinely concerned as she asked, "Flossie, how’s the situation outside?"
