In the end, it was nothing more than making a mountain out of a molehill.
Seeing Flossie Wright act as if nothing had happened, Yvonne Watson bit her lip, her confidence waning, and she nodded hesitantly, "Yes, that’s it."
She had always been afraid of Neal Thompson - whenever he got angry, she would inevitably bow her head and admit her mistake. This ingrained caution and care, or rather a bit of inferiority, made her always consider Neal’s feelings in her actions. With a mixture of appeasement, and a selfish desire to make her two years of military life smoother.
Today, when Neal got angry, she instinctively heap all the blame on herself. Coupled with her understanding of Nigel Ferguson’s intentions, she doesn’t know how to explain the big mess she had made. Naturally, she was panic-stricken and couldn’t alleviate her anxiety. She just thought it would be best if this matter passed quickly, and she never considered how to solve it to avoid the least misunderstanding.
Flossie Wright stood up, went to get her clothes, and asked Yvonne Watson casually, "So, what are you planning to do?"
"I ..." Yvonne Watson hesitated, and she started to be at a loss. She tentatively suggested, "Write a review?"
Flossie Wright was silent for a moment, quite speechless.
Indeed, one cannot estimate a person with Yvonne Watson’s personality with normal thinking.

She just sent a wrong message. The one who deserves an apology is Nigel Ferguson, she just needs to explain it to him clearly. Is there a need to worry about Neal Thompson? If she didn’t make a mistake, she didn’t. Even if it was a big fuss, no one would blame her.
However, Yvonne Watson just cared about not causing any trouble and not making Neal Thompson angry...
"You go ahead and write."
Flossie Wright held her basin and calmly headed towards the door. The simple acceptance seemed to affirm Yvonne Watson’s idea, but there was an unusual hint hidden in her nonchalant words.
Yvonne Watson didn’t notice it.
She gawked at the retreating figure of Flossie Wright, her lips were bitten white, very painful, but she didn’t seem to realize it, her eyes were filled with a fog of confusion.
She was already like this, why didn’t Flossie Wright help her?
For some reason, Yvonne Watson felt that Flossie Wright was so hateful for the first time.
A moment later, she could no longer hold back the tears at the corner of her eyes, and they flowed down. She slowly squatted down, sobbing loud enough for it to echo throughout the dormitory.
However, this land dedicated to the cooking class seemed silent, as if all the faint sounds had been shredded by the chilly winter wind, and fallen where others couldn’t hear them.
There was no hot water for bathing in the winter in the Forces. Luckily, those who frequently trained had enhanced physical endurance and could handle some cold water. Moreover, they had gotten used to it after a long time.
However, this time, Flossie Wright was already chilled from being outside. After taking a bath, her hands and feet were practically devoid of any warmth. She didn’t torment her body any further, and went to bed as soon as she returned to the dormitory.
Throughout, Yvonne Watson was writing her review with teary eyes. She appeared so conscientious as if any miswritten word would incite Neal Thompson’s wrath. The word "cautious" was fully embodied in her at this moment.
When Becca Reyes returned after being busy outside, she came across Yvonne Watson deeply engrossed in her review. Becca, who couldn’t stand Yvonne’s always compliant personality, wanted to joke around when something hit her from behind. With the sound of a paper tube falling to the ground, she turned her head around in pain.
