"Does Chloe Bell know?" Flossie Wright continued to ask.
"She’s not here either." Sandy Cruz quickly clarified the situation.
The implication being, trying to find Chloe Bell now is pointless.
"Devina Millet..." Flossie Wright tried to speak again.
"Also not here." Sandy Cruz directly interrupted her.
"What are they doing?" Flossie shrugged her shoulders and asked helplessly.

"Repairing roads." Sandy Cruz answered earnestly.
"..." Flossie’s mouth twitched.
Sending female soldiers to repair roads, while the male soldiers plant vegetables in the campsite?!
Glenn Hutchinson, you—
Really something!
"They requested it themselves."
Clearly understanding Flossie’s thoughts, Sandy Cruz explained word by word from the side.
"Hmm?" Flossie raised her eyebrows.
"They are female soldiers." Sandy didn’t say it outright.
Flossie suddenly understood.
No matter where they are, the presence of female soldiers is always controversial.
Female military doctors are easier to speak about; everything relies on medical skills, and with thorough confidence, they basically don’t spark much controversy.
However, when it comes to missions, or even peacekeeping, if female soldiers appear, they easily become the focal point of discussion.
After all, they are female soldiers.
They may be special forces, but others don’t know that they possess strength beyond ordinary people, and if not shown, others also don’t know they have superior military skills and survival skills compared to most people—
Sadly, they still don’t know.
At the start, no one could eliminate such controversy.
So, the only way to change perceptions is to let their ability speak for them.
Realizing this, Flossie didn’t continue the topic.
Ultimately, no matter how great her personal ability is, she needs a platform to overcome others’ prejudices, not just relying on presence to change the crowd’s opinions.
Certain ingrained beliefs cannot be changed by individual efforts.
This is reality.
As for Joelle—
To be honest, Flossie wasn’t too concerned.
There are quite a few people interested in Glenn Hutchinson, including Ann Cavanaugh from the peacekeeping medical team, who has a strong family background, and traveled a long distance here for Glenn Hutchinson, yet it hasn’t affected him.
If Joelle really had a chance, she should have successfully hooked up with Glenn Hutchinson during the three months Flossie was away.
Glenn Hutchinson is hers, so it doesn’t matter who is eyeing him.
"Let’s go."
Flossie waved her hand, took the lead, and walked forward in a laid-back voice.
She walked ahead first.
As for Sandy Cruz, he stood behind, glanced at her back, and in the end, said nothing more.
Devina Millet, Chloe Bell, and the others hadn’t returned for several consecutive days.
While waiting and recovering from her injury, Flossie often visited Perry Reed, occasionally pushing him a bit, sometimes probing Daisy Deacon and Andrew for information. At first, Perry Reed accidentally let things slip, but after being tricked a few times, he couldn’t be bothered to talk to her anymore.
Flossie, feeling helpless, had to look for other targets, concocting a little scheme to contact Ice, and managed to gather quite a bit of intelligence.
To her bewilderment, Perry Reed and Ice seemed secretly in cahoots, keeping their lips sealed from her, ultimately leaving her with no information whatsoever.
Even more unexpectedly—
Glenn Hutchinson also successfully conspired with those two guys, keeping her out of the loop about something.
One time, after Flossie left the house, Glenn Hutchinson wore a completely dark expression, "Flossie Wright, I’m warning you, don’t entertain any wild ideas until you’re fully healed!"
