On the other hand—
Regan Wright wasn’t exactly evil incarnate. How does the saying go? Even a tiger doesn’t eat its offspring, not to mention Regan Wright was a diligent and responsible father.
Learning that his daughter was pregnant, he did everything he could to approach the Murphy Family, and he certainly wouldn’t let his daughter suffer any injustice.
The fact that Regan Wright chose to protect Helen Wright proved that she was still favored in the Wright Family. The Murphys saw this, and given Benjamin Murphy’s determination to choose her, it was within reason for them to agree to their union.
Meanwhile, Helen Wright received such a cold response from Flossie Wright but didn’t feel slighted or embarrassed. Instead, she was unfazed and continued, "Sis, I’m really thankful to you."
"No need," Flossie spoke impassively.
"And..." Helen paused slightly, her tone suddenly becoming slow and earnest, "That is, for everything that happened before, I am very, very sorry. Sis, really, in the past, it was my mom and I who wronged you. I’m not expecting your forgiveness, just... um, I truly didn’t expect you to help me like this. So, thank you."
Her lengthy speech was hesitant but carried an unmistakable apology.
The more she spoke, the lower her voice became.
Quietly, Flossie turned her head and looked through the open door along the corridor towards the brilliant sunlight outside, her gaze drifting slightly into the distance.
After a moment, Flossie drew closer to her phone and whispered softly, "A peaceful family prospers."
"Sis..." Suddenly, Helen was taken aback, her voice choked with tears, interwoven with sadness and guilt, which then burst forth, "I’m sorry, we were the ones who wronged you."
A peaceful family prospers.
Back then, she and her mother targeted Flossie in the Wright Family, causing her to endure great hardships.
At that time, Helen and Merry Otiz were full of spite, blaming all of their past suffering on Flossie and Olivia Hamilton, wishing nothing less than death upon the mother and daughter.
But what happened in the end?
They ended up gaining nothing.
And Flossie, who should have despised them to her bones, came to Helen’s aid during a critical moment, setting aside past grievances.
Listening to Helen’s thanks, Flossie’s eyes lowered slightly, and her lips tightened into a stiff, straight line.
She didn’t want to stay in the Wright Family, nor did she wish to mend her relationship with Helen. It could be said that Helen’s current attitude was the result of Flossie’s unintentional actions.
A peaceful family prospers.
Harmony in the family is surely a good thing.
"It’s nothing," Flossie said with a cool tone, cutting off Helen’s further words. She spoke indifferently, "I’m a bit busy, I’ll hang up first."
With a sob, Helen replied in a muffled voice, "Okay, fine."
Without continuing the pleasantries, Flossie hung up the phone and turned it off as well.
To avoid receiving any more bothersome calls.
Not in the mood for lunch, Flossie took the small notebook and read it for the entire afternoon.
Only around six o’clock, when she finally felt hungry, did she put down the notebook, which she had studied several times over, and went to the cafeteria.
Last night, she had two Steamed Buns, in the morning, also two Steamed Buns, and at noon, she simply didn’t eat at all.
Therefore—
Arriving early, Flossie, while getting her meal, filled her tray to the brim, breaking her record during training.
The two cooks standing by stared at her, dumbfounded.
Flossie, holding her tray, left with composed ease.
After finding a place to sit with her food, Flossie took advantage of the officers’ good mood in the cafeteria to quickly finish her meal and then went for a walk on the training ground.
