He wasn’t blessed with the gift of mind reading, so he didn’t know what she was thinking. Yet, some things were easy to guess. If Flossie Wright didn’t even know why she was being followed, then all the capabilities she had shown in the past couldn’t possibly be authentic.
"Here you go," she pulled out the piece of paper from her pocket without any hesitation and handed it to Glenn Hutchinson, "this is it".
She didn’t need to be secretive around Glenn Hutchinson. It’s not that she trusted him unreservedly, though she did to a certain extent, but that wasn’t the main reason.
After all, Glenn Hutchinson was a special forces captain. Although Flossie Wright wasn’t very fond of the forces from her heart, it didn’t shape her perception of Hutchinson’s skills and what he was capable of doing.
The note was clearly some sort of coded message. Flossie Wright had never taken on any missions from Eastlandia before, so she had little knowledge about the place, let alone understand its cryptic messages. Even if she technically could spot a hint or two, deciphering them was beyond her. Thus, she could only hand it over to Glenn Hutchinson to help out.
After all ...
When the underworld had infiltrated her room and were now so blatantly following her around, she didn’t have the luxury of ignoring it.
Grasping the note in his hand, Glenn Hutchinson didn’t rush to open it. Instead, he slipped it away smoothly and then, as if nothing had happened, casually strolled along the bustling street with Flossie Wright, just like any other couple would do.
In this "date", Flossie Wright had managed to snag quite a haul of goods, having them sent home by the shop assistant eventually. Naturally, all the money was footed by Glenn Hutchinson. All that Flossie Wright had to do was to live up to the role of a shopaholic, rampaging through everywhere.
As such, every time they arrived at a shop, most shop assistants would eye them with heart-shaped eyes, their faces full of envy, jealousy, and resentment when they looked at Flossie Wright.
These days, it was rare to find a man who was handsome, rich, and willing to splurge on his woman...
"Do you earn a high salary?"
When their shopping spree was almost over and Flossie Wright was looking for a restaurant, she suddenly thought about this and unexpectedly asked Glenn Hutchinson.

If considering the shopping spree she had just done, it would probably eat up Glenn Hutchinson’s salary for a year or two. But seeing him spend money so generously, Flossie Wright didn’t think too much about it.
However, upon further thought, he lived in an upscale neighborhood and the car he owned, considering his salary, would take him ten years to afford...
So, where did his money come from?
Glenn Hutchinson cast a mysterious glance at her and then said with hidden meaning, "Enough for you to spend".
Originally, Flossie Wright only intended to ask a simple question. But, after hearing his meaningful tone and words, she couldn’t help but stop and take another hard look at him. Unfortunately, Glenn, who always managed to keep his imperfections under wraps, didn’t reveal any this time as well. It seemed as if he was just making a casual comment and wasn’t inferring anything.
A streak of suspicion flashed through her mind. However, just as she looked up, she spotted a hot pot restaurant. Burying her suspicions, she didn’t press him further but walked with him towards the restaurant instead.
Sitting a little late in the morning and dealing with two blind date participants, combined with their nearly two-hours-long strolling, it was past lunchtime now. Flossie Wright, as such, wasn’t particular about where they were eating. She walked into the first restaurant that was pleasant to the eye.
Asking Glenn Hutchinson wasn’t necessary...
Although he grew up in this city, he hadn’t had been back for years, so his opinion wouldn’t be valuable. Therefore, she had no choice but to pick a restaurant that appealed to her taste.
