"Your affair with Rowdy Brightwill is completely over." Regan Wright drew a deep breath and spoke in a low voice, his cold and impatient tone showed no sign of easing, "You still have two years before you will be discharged from the Forces. Your mother and I have decided that you’ll start going on arranged dates in the next few days. We hope you can find a satisfactory partner so that you can get married after coming back from your service."
Flossie Wright had just graduated and was in her early twenties, but things would be different in two years...
Given her age, it wasn’t the main issue. The real problem was Flossie Wright’s widespread reputation; the number of people who could accept her was too few. If her age caught up in two years, it would be even more difficult for her to get married.
At first, it was thought that after spending two years with Rowdy Brightwill in the Forces, she would return and they could get married. However, unbeknownst to anyone, the marriage that had been in the works for twenty years fell apart a few months after Flossie Wright went to the Forces.
In the end, Regan Wright was somewhat unwilling. Now, having Flossie Wright find a new partner quickly was a slap in the face to the Brightwill family, and he could at least take pleasure in that.
However, on hearing these words, Flossie Wright frowned unexpectedly. She glanced at Regan Wright in surprise, her instinct telling her that the man wasn’t lying. The tense atmosphere did indeed indicate that they were discussing a serious matter.
Arranged dating?
Flossie Wright’s lips twitched.
Perhaps her previous thoughts hadn’t changed, but she certainly felt that arranged dating had nothing to do with her.
"I won’t go."
Without any thought or pause, Flossie Wright spoke outright, leaving no room for discussion.
Not to mention she had no interest in the partner Regan Wright arranged, even if it were someone she was interested in, just because she was forced to be "matched" in a fixed setting, she would not have any feelings.
Regan Wright, already suppressing his anger, grew even more furious when he heard her words. "Whether you want or not is not up to you!" he shouted in a deep, angry voice.
"You can try."

With a slight shake of the teacup in her hand, Flossie Wright’s eyes turned cold, as if she had made up her mind to confront Regan Wright.
However, perceiving the increasingly tense atmosphere between Flossie Wright and Regan Wright, Merry Otiz, who had been leisurely enjoying the show, inexplicably felt a sense of tension.
She thought these two would argue but had not expected that Flossie, who had been away for a while, had become so resolute, showing no signs of backing down even in the presence of Regan Wright.
After a few seconds of silence, Regan Wright suddenly stood up from the sofa, anger swirling in his gaze. He raised his hand, pointed at Flossie Wright and began to shout angrily, "Flossie Wright, don’t think you can be presumptuous just because you’ve grown up. I am still the one in charge of the Wright family!"
"No one said you’re not in charge."
Flossie Wright didn’t take his anger seriously at all. When she looked up at Regan Wright, her eyes showed not the slightest bit of fear. She was calm and composed, even from a lower position, she didn’t show any sign of deference, her momentum surpassing his.
During negotiations, whoever gets emotional is doomed to lose.
Regan Wright wasn’t necessarily oblivious to this concept, but the person he was facing was his own daughter. Someone like him absolutely wouldn’t allow anyone who thought they could control him to get out of control. Since he had made up his mind about this matter, Flossie Wright should have no room for resistance. Therefore, when Flossie Wright started resisting without giving him any face, feelings of imbalance, anger, and humiliation all surged up, causing him to lose control of his emotions.
