However, regarding Calvin Ramos’s behavior, since Becca Reyes had no intention of pursuing the matter, Belinda Nichols, who detested meddling in other’s affairs, naturally didn’t bother with it either.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Thinking for a moment, Becca Reyes tactfully changed the topic, "I’m going to get something to eat, do you want to join me?"
"No." Belinda Nichols, who had eaten earlier, bluntly declined.
"Alright then." Becca Reyes sighed and was about to leave when she hesitated, leaned in toward Belinda Nichols, and whispered, "About what just happened, could you not tell Flossie?"
Belinda Nichols agreed without hesitation.
She hadn’t planned to tell Flossie Wright to begin with.
Becca Reyes was an adult and had the right to make her own decisions. Although Belinda Nichols was only an observer, she could see that Becca Reyes depended on Flossie Wright for many things.
Although it wasn’t very obvious.
Flossie Wright had the ability to handle things, but Becca Reyes also needed to develop a mature mindset to shoulder her own responsibilities.
Flossie Wright couldn’t help her for a lifetime.
With a genuinely thankful smile that curved her eyes, Becca Reyes expressed her gratitude.
Belinda Nichols nodded slightly and turned to leave.
Watching her departing figure, Becca Reyes’s hand paused on her neck, and the smile on her face gradually faded.
The act from Daniel Ramos had unfolded so swiftly that Becca Reyes hadn’t fully registered it for a long time after leaving.
Only now—
Having calmed down, she realized just how dangerous the situation could have been without Belinda Nichols’s intervention.
If Belinda Nichols hadn’t been there, would Daniel Ramos have killed her?
Becca Reyes didn’t hesitate with her answer.
When her neck was being squeezed, she noticed Daniel Ramos’s eyes—cold and merciless, the eyes of someone bloodthirsty, who wouldn’t blink at the loss of a life and might even take pleasure in it.
It was only then that Becca Reyes felt a chill of dread.
After lingering for a while, Becca Reyes exhaled deeply and then turned to head to the cafeteria.
Meanwhile—
At the seaside.
As the sky gradually darkened, a figure slowly emerged from the sea.
Bare-chested, his solid torso and muscles were exposed, with camouflage pants soaked through. As he stepped onto the beach, a trail of water droplets fell.
Performing an emergency procedure in the water had greatly drained his strength, and by the time he swam to shore, he was completely exhausted.
Calvin Ramos lay on his back on the beach.
He closed his eyes and took deep breaths, trying to recall why, but his mind was a blank.
After a moment, Calvin Ramos gave up.
Lately, he had grown accustomed to hovering on the brink of death, only to rescue himself time and time again.
Daniel Ramos...
Do you really want to die?
That evening, after eating, Becca Reyes didn’t return to the Dormitory to pass the time as she usually would but stayed at the Training Ground training until late before going back.
In contrast, Flossie Wright, who normally trained until late, returned to the Dormitory around 7:30 PM.
As soon as she arrived downstairs, someone waved at her.
Upon closer inspection, she recognized the person approaching.

Rowdy Brightwill.
"What’s up?" Seeing him sweating profusely, Flossie Wright asked.
"I’m leaving tomorrow." Rowdy Brightwill looked at her with eager eyes.
"Oh..." Flossie Wright responded at length, then promptly instructed, "Take care."
