With Becca Reyes and Calvin Ramos’s support, Flossie Wright naturally took on the task she actively sought. Nobody knew what Calvin Ramos thought of it, but Becca Reyes approved of her decision wholeheartedly. Flossie Wright hardly ever volunteered for troublemaking tasks. It would be somewhat unkind to discourage her enthusiasm. Of course, deep down, Becca Reyes didn’t expect Flossie Wright to come up with an excellent training plan with a casual attitude.
However, the minority must succumb to the majority. Despite being full of complaints, Stuart Weston had no choice but to accept the decision unhappily.
Before Flossie Wright could present her plan, they continued their training as they had previously. Flossie Wright, who had just taken over the task, spent half of her day in the dormitory, devising a training plan.
Since she had not been training for a while, she now had work at hand, and there was no immediate need to worry about her training.
"Flossie Wright!"
As she was typing up the book list on her laptop, a voice tinged with rage abruptly came from the entrance of the dormitory, causing her to pause her writing momentarily.
She turned her head and saw Rowdy Brightwill walking through the door, his handsome face grim with seriousness and his brisk strides conveying an air that suggested he might start a fight with Flossie Wright at any moment. The sight of him surely left many cooks dumbfounded.
"What is it?"
Turning the pen in her hand a few times, Flossie Wright dropped her gaze lazily, opened the document on her laptop, and continued editing it leisurely. She did not seem overly concerned about Rowdy Brightwill’s sudden appearance.
Rowdy Brightwill advanced a few steps until he was beside Flossie Wright. Looking down at her casual demeanor, he couldn’t help but feel an anger well up within him. Irritably, he demanded, "Why didn’t you inform me earlier before leaving?!"
When Flossie Wright told him that she was returning to the Forces, she had already hung up. She had merely sent him a simple text message. Afterwards, regardless of how many times Rowdy Brightwill tried to call her, the only response he got was that Flossie Wright’s mobile phone was switched off.
At that time, Rowdy Brightwill wanted to rush back, but he still had unresolved matters in Capital City. In particular, there was the mess that Merry Otiz had left behind. He had to clarify the general situation with her to ensure that she was not involved with other members of the Wright Family, which would give him some reassurance.
"Didn’t I tell you?" Flossie Wright glanced at him in puzzlement. Noticing his lingering irritability, she frowned slightly before subtly changing the subject, "How’s the situation at the Wright’s?"
"It’s fine," Rowdy Brightwill replied subconsciously, but after continuing the conversation he realized how helpless he was with Flossie Wright. Agitatedly rubbing his short hair, he suppressed his inner fury, standing aside and added curtly, "Old Master Wright was furious when he heard about Aunt Merry’s actions. He did not allow Uncle Wright to interfere in this matter, which means Aunt Merry would probably spend a few years in prison. However, she wasn’t the main participant in the incident, and her knowledge on the subject was superficial. She was forced into the role of an informant due to her gambling debts. In addition, she had been cooperative after her arrest, so her sentence would be lighter."
Pausing briefly, Rowdy Brightwill deliberated for a moment before continuing, "The Murphy family is now strongly against the marriage proposal between Samuel Murphy and Helen Wright. There’s probably a lot more drama for them to deal with. On the other hand, Grady Wright doesn’t have any issues. He cried for a couple of days and then returned to school. However, it will likely impact his situation at the school."
"Also, your Dad kept trying to call you, but couldn’t get through. So, when I was coming back, he asked me to pass on a message to you," Rowdy Brightwill spoke slowly, his expression gradually becoming more serious as he continued, "He said, you should stay in the Forces safely and not worry about the matters at home."
