Little did he know that the woman he was holding was just struggling to break free.
With a slight lift of her eyes, Flossie’s gaze was instantly filled with murderous intent, a warning and threat that whooshed past like blades, striking directly at Glenn Hutchinson’s cheek. If the cutting edge of her gaze could materialize, then Glenn Hutchinson would certainly be obliterated right now.
But who was Glenn Hutchinson? He calmly met her look, even curling up the corners of his mouth, adding a touch of inexplicable tenderness.
"Captain Hutchinson?"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, trembling, laced with caution.
Flossie’s brow twitched slightly, and as she turned her head, she spotted Mia Lawson in a nurse’s uniform. Mia was smiling, though her smile seemed calculated and restrained, lacking her usual easiness.
Flossie recalled how Mia, at their last meeting, was so badly injured she was nearly dead, yet she didn’t forget to drag Flossie into it as well. A sense of ennui emerged in Flossie’s demeanor, and she naturally leaned onto Glenn Hutchinson’s shoulder.
He used her as a shield again, but it wasn’t the first time, and it was pointless for her to get angry. Since the pawn was already there, she might as well use it well.
She was always good at infuriating others.
As expected, the sight of Flossie’s deliberate display of affection immediately distorted Mia’s face with anger.
Mia’s attention was always focused on Glenn Hutchinson, but she hadn’t noticed whether the person he was holding was a man or woman. Just seeing him, she instinctively approached.
Who would have thought...
After taking a more careful look at the two, Glenn Hutchinson was wearing only a white shirt on his upper body, matched with black casual pants and leather shoes. The simple outfit perfectly showcased his fantastic figure.
Yes, he was handsome in his uniform, but that charm always reminded people of a soldier because he and the uniform were inseparable.
His current casual outfit, on the other hand, showcased his personal charm more. His movements were elegant and noble, his aura powerful yet restrained, and his face still as handsome as a heaven-sent man. The demeanor and aura were not far off from what she remembered. But wearing this casual outfit, something felt different.
Perhaps it was more casual, or maybe something else.
Regardless, he was so handsome that people couldn’t take their eyes off him.
Mia’s mind suddenly turned to the oversized overcoat Flossie was wearing. It seemed ill-suited for her with its length and breadth, its hem covering her knees. Seeing the shirt-only Glenn Hutchinson, a thought suddenly sprouted in her mind.
Was Flossie wearing Glenn Hutchinson’s clothes?
Wait a minute...
Why were they together this early? Even if Flossie was coming to the hospital, did Glenn Hutchinson need to accompany her?
Could it be... had they spent the night together?
Assorted nonsensical thoughts surfaced all at once. The more Mia pondered, the more anxious she became. Something seemed to be stuck in her heart, causing her to feel both aggrieved and furious. She wanted nothing more than to tear Flossie and Glenn Hutchinson apart, but the remaining shreds of rationality held her in place. All she could do was stare helplessly at the couple flaunting their ’relationship’ in front of her.
"What’s up?"
The one who eventually spoke was Flossie. Her demeanor became even more nonchalant and relaxed, as if the person standing before her was merely a dispensable existence that didn’t require any further thought.
Mia bit her lip, eventually mustering a forced smile on her face. "No, no matter."
She was indeed extremely embarrassed now, and Flossie’s claim to Glenn was obviously a slap in the face. Unless she had no shame left at all, she wouldn’t dare to argue with Flossie over a man in public. After all, this was her workplace, and making a scene would do her no good.
