Flossie Wright glanced casually at the dagger and spoke indifferently, "It’s a gift for you."
Indeed, this dagger was meant for Becca Reyes. Flossie had purchased two of the same type, keeping one for herself. But she had kept all of Becca’s gifts at the Wright house. And since leaving there, she had not returned, and thus, had no chance to bring out the gifts. This dagger simply ended up with her because she was going to be a "hostage", and took it along on the spur of the moment.
Therefore, it has seen blood and been put to use.
However, since the blade wasn’t chrome-plated, it was more of an ornament. Displaying it in the Forces was just for show. Giving it to Becca Reyes was more of a keepsake; Flossie hadn’t intended for her to really use the dagger.
"You’re so stingy," Becca Reyes played with the dagger, raising her eyebrows at Flossie in surprise, "Is this real or fake?"
Flossie touched her nose and casually returned, "It’s Glenn Hutchinson’s money."
Becca’s mouth twitched fiercely.
Damn! She knew it!
She should never have been optimistic about Flossie Wright!
"Wait," Detecting something off in the atmosphere, Becca suddenly suppressed her full dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, she squinted curiously, approaching Flossie with observation, "Didn’t you go back with Rowdy Brightwill? How did you end up with Captain Hutchinson? Are you with him...?"
Her sentence trailed off yet the implication in Becca’s question was crystal clear.
Apparently, she was suspecting the relationship between Flossie Wright and Glenn Hutchinson.
She didn’t witness the incident at the cooking class this evening. If she had seen Glenn Hutchinson voluntarily chopping vegetables and considerately putting food on Flossie’s plate during dinner, she would almost instantly conclude that there was something going on between Flossie and Glenn.
Even though she didn’t witness it, a little speculation was enough to breed suspicion. After all, Flossie and Glenn had plenty of opportunities to interact in the Forces. Glenn had treated Flossie differently from the start. If they happened to meet in the city, then there would be even more opportunities. Besides, Glenn didn’t seem like the type who’d willingly accompany someone on shopping sprees...
So, if Flossie and Glenn claimed that there was absolutely nothing between them, she would not believe them.
"He’s rich."
Flossie quickly continued her speech, stating it lightly as though she was merely stating a fact.
Becca nearly choked on her own saliva.
She had no doubt that Captain Hutchinson was rich. But why was Flossie spending his money?
Having seen the suspicion in Becca’s eyes, Flossie contemplated and then replied earnestly, "He’s a good guy."
Becca wanted to spew blood all over Flossie’s face!

If Captain Hutchinson is such a nice guy, why doesn’t he spend money on others?!
Flossie, you must have been stupid to death!
Unable to help sighing inwardly, Becca began to reconsider Flossie’s emotional intelligence. Flossie, whom she had once held in high regard, instantly fell into the negative zone, and rather disgracefully so.
However, just as she was seething with anger, Flossie said nonchalantly, "He’s spending the money on you."
Becca’s heart flinched, she blinked, and all her anger was instantly quenched. She felt a sudden chill rush to her forehead, which made her feel as if she had done something unforgivable. For once, she felt a bit frazzled.
