However, the expressions on Becca Reyes’ face changed distinctly from shock to anger, and then to sorrow and worry.
Having been saved only to end up being a corpse when her cousin went to sea for the second time, she was scolded and accused by her aunt, and then...
Winsley Scott has disappeared?
Becca Reyes, who listened quietly to everything, lowered her head slightly and fell into silence.
Flossie Wright stared at her for a few moments, about to turn and leave, but was suddenly grabbed by Becca Reyes.
With a slight backward glance, she saw Becca Reyes’ serious gaze. She didn’t quite understand herself, but her eyes were full of confusion, and she unexpectly asked, "What about you?"
Some wrinkles grew on her brows due to confusion, Flossie Wright was somewhat unable to understand her question.
"How do you feel?" Becca Reyes paused for a moment, becoming more serious, and carefully posed her question. "For example, when you saw Janice Wood’s cousin’s body, or when you saw Janice’s aunt scolding her, and then..."
Lowering her gaze subconsciously to hide the fleeting emotions, Flossie Wright gently broke free from her hand and said softly, "I don’t know."
After that, Flossie Wright turned around and left, this time heading in the direction of the cafeteria.
Becca Reyes stared blankly at her retreating figure, the confusion in her eyes gradually gathering, and at the same time, her brows furrowing.
"I don’t know?"
She lowered her head, murmuring to herself, but the confusion was especially obvious.
Undeniably, Becca Reyes felt great sympathy for Janice Wood’s ordeal and wanted to help in some ways, but from another perspective, she also wanted to know how Flossie Wright felt about the matter.
She had always been curious about Flossie Wright’s thoughts, why she came to the military camp, why she seemed to not care about anything, only rarely getting angry when something happened to a friend, and being calmly indifferent as if nothing mattered to her.
But when something so angering and tragic happened, did she really feel nothing at all?
No, at least, Becca Reyes did not believe so.
With a light sigh, Becca Reyes didn’t delve into Flossie Wright’s psychology due to concerns about Janice Wood’s situation. She was always the type to put aside things she couldn’t understand, so she put this issue aside and went to the dormitory to take care of Janice Wood.
By the time Flossie Wright and Janice Wood returned, it was almost noon. Squad Leader Lin had known about the situation in advance and naturally understood them. He didn’t make them work in the kitchen, but asked them to stay with Janice Wood and keep an eye on her condition. Then he also made some delicious food for them in the tiny kitchen and sent it to the dormitory. Other than Neal Thompson, who felt this was a bit too special, none of the other cooks objected, and they even wished they could cook more dishes themselves.
The cooks were all logistics personnel, they couldn’t help too much usually, so they just made sure to do their own job properly, ensuring the soldiers did not need to suffer from food. Now that the entire base was shrouded in a cloud of gloom, and they felt both infuriated and sympathetic to the rescue soldiers even though they only saw the news on their phones.
And now, Janice Wood has been hit so hard, why can’t they be nicer to her?
"Go take a shower."
Flossie Wright, having changed into clean clothes, found a fresh training uniform and handed it to Janice Wood.
Her voice was as calm as ever, which made Becca Reyes, who was watching from the side, twitch her brows. Everyone else was treating Janice Wood very gingerly, couldn’t you be a little gentler?!
However, unexpectedly, Janice Wood calmly took the clothes and obediently went out to take a shower.
