Flossie Wright did not consider his feelings, but she also didn’t want to make a big fuss.
"What do you want me to do?"
Looking at her, Sandy Cruz got straight to the point without any pretense.
If Flossie Wright was seeking him out, going to the trouble of cooking a meal just to inquire about Daniel Ramos, it really would be Flossie stirring up trouble for no reason.
"Keep an eye on him," Flossie paused slightly, her expression turning serious, "In the Forces, whatever he does, you can ignore it. But once he’s out on a mission, don’t let him do anything out of line."
"Understood."
Sandy Cruz agreed quickly to this.
Even if Flossie Wright hadn’t mentioned it, Sandy Cruz had already had this intention.
If there were any unstable factors with Daniel Ramos, and if there were no direct evidence at the moment to prove his mental issues, and Sandy Cruz wasn’t keen to take over the family power and intervene for now, then the only option was to observe him for a while.
If Daniel Ramos caused some trouble within the Forces, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but on a mission, where he could endanger the lives of others at any moment...
That would be no fun at all.
Having obtained his agreement, Flossie was not surprised. She picked up a piece of potato and put it into her mouth, but her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Good lord, it’s all gone cold.

Fortunately, the potato slices were made first and had cooled down completely after sitting for a while, but the Tomato Egg Soup and Braised Pork were still warm. And as it turned out, Sandy Cruz’s cooking was not bad at all; both of them ended up finishing the meal.
After eating, they said their goodbyes.
The cafeteria.
It was not until eight o’clock that those people dispersed.
Belinda Nichols had also been waiting until eight.
Watching Rowdy Brightwill, the birthday boy, lag behind, following the last group out, Belinda stood up and intercepted Rowdy Brightwill on his way out.
"Eh—" Seeing her, Rowdy Brightwill lowered his eyes in surprise and said in realization, "Oh, it’s you."
"A present."
Without much ado, she handed over the bag and the wooden box.
Before he could thank her, Rowdy Brightwill reached for the two gifts, clearly puzzled.
"That one’s Flossie’s," Belinda said expressionlessly as she watched him hold the wooden box in his right hand.
"She didn’t come?"
Mentioning Flossie Wright immediately perked up Rowdy Brightwill.
Drake Easton and Nathan Foster were nearby, but seeing the situation, they didn’t delay and walked away.
Soon, only Rowdy Brightwill was left standing in front of Belinda.
After thinking for a moment, Belinda didn’t hide anything and said directly, "She came, stayed at the playground for two minutes, and then left."
Rowdy Brightwill was immediately choked up.
At the playground...
Does that mean that Flossie Wright saw his dispute with Nancy Phillips?
No, that can’t be right!
If Belinda also knew about it, then did she see it too?
Rowdy Brightwill felt like he was struck by a thunderbolt, scorched on the outside and tender inside.
This was just too embarrassing...
"Then," he hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and asked tentatively, "did you hear anything?"
"Heard a few sentences."
Belinda answered frankly.
Indeed, she heard a few sentences. They were all arguing about Flossie, Rowdy Brightwill was clearly siding with Flossie, while Nancy Phillips had objections to her, and after that Belinda didn’t know more.
Rowdy Brightwill responded lengthily, feeling incredibly awkward even continuing the conversation.
He didn’t know how much she heard.
He and Nancy Phillips had completely broken up after that recent conversation.
Yet he didn’t want Flossie Wright to know.
