Glenn Hutchinson had just hung up the phone when there was a knock at the office door.
Setting down his cell phone, Glenn glanced at the half-open door, catching sight of a figure out of the corner of his eye.
"Flossie Wright’s file."
At those lazily-uttered words, a stapled stack of A4 papers was thrown across the room, fluttering in the air like a white butterfly before landing, with a gust of stirred air, onto the desk in front of Glenn.
Glenn’s gaze flashed as he glanced at the stack of A4 papers, his eyes slowly scanning over them.
Neat and intact.
Raising an eyebrow, Glenn’s gaze swept over them, a chill cutting through the air, "Did she provoke you?"
It’s a rare fine day outside. The glow of the setting sun strayed in at an angle from the window, casting a faint outline on the man standing before him, half his figure draped in shadow, his elongated silhouette stretching out behind him at an angle.
Straight, upright, like bamboo.
However, that handsome face was tinged with a slight hint of disdain.
"Very boring."
A cold tone, lazily trailing in the evening breeze, held a hint of indifference.
He was referring to Flossie’s file.
Glenn frowned slightly and said, "I know, you don’t need to question my judgment."
The life of the Wright’s family’s young lady, if anything "interesting" had really happened, she wouldn’t have this kind of reputation outside.
"You’re free to go."
Their idle conversation ended, the figure turned and left.
In a blink of an eye, the whole office descended into silence.
The light outside the window gradually dimmed while Glenn sat quietly in his office chair, flipping through the stack of A4 papers one by one.
Until it was completely dark outside, he had finally finished reading the last page of the content.
An ordinary life, with no special distinctions - a pampered, rebellious, spoiled rich girl, regardless of what she did.
Even though it was within expectations, the doubts hidden in the darkness became stronger.
If the person before was thus ordinary, incompetent, rebellious, and pampered, then who was this calm, wise, cunning, unpredictable Flossie Wright?
The contrast was stark.
Clearly two different people, beyond doubt.
So, Flossie Wright, who are you really?
His fingers lightly tapped on the table, echoing through the quiet room.
Slow and steady rhythms.
But, his thought process was interrupted by a "dong dong" electronic sound, accompanied by a vibrating buzz.
It came from the drawer.
Pausing slightly, Glenn opened the drawer and his eyes immediately fell on the vibrating phone.
It was Willie Ash’s.
He wouldn’t ordinarily pay it any mind, but a glance at the lit screen revealed "Flossie Wright" appearing. His eyes flashed, and the next moment, the phone was in his hand.
It was a Whatsapp message.
He rarely used his phone, but he wasn’t that behind the times.
Within the Base, no one has much privacy, nor any sense of caution, so Willie’s phone naturally had no screen lock. He easily tapped into it, revealing a string of chat history.
Yesterday, 15:44
Willie: Hey Drake, can I ask you something?
Drake Easton: Yeah.
Willie: Do you happen to know Flossie Wright’s Whatsapp account info?
Drake Easton: I don’t.
Willie: ^_^, I knew you wouldn’t.
Drake Easton: ...
Willie: Bro.
Willie: Drake bro.
Willie: Could you ask Rowdy Brightwill for me, please?
Yesterday, 15:50
Drake Easton: No can do.
Willie: Drake bro.
Willie: Drake bro...
Willie: Drake big bro!
Yesterday, 17:55
Drake Easton: Ask him yourself.
Willie: Drake bro! You finally replied! Let’s skip all the runaround and get straight to the point, Rowdy is a stingy bastard, he wouldn’t spill even if it killed him! So I can only look to you, the big bro, for help! I mean, I’m not doing this for me, you know, our captain has a thing for Flossie Wright. I guess you’ve seen that he’s a low-key dark horse, so I just want to help out the captain.
Willie: Drake bro, you still there?
Willie: Drake bro, help me out. Once this is successful, I will definitely go through fire and water for you, even if it kills me!
Yesterday, 18:30
Drake Easton: ... Oh.
Willie: [Touched] [Touched] [Touched]
Drake Easton: Wait.
Drake Easton: Flossie Wright’s Whatsapp: yeqianxiao321
Glenn skimmed through the messages quickly, his gaze thoughtfully distant.
The room was completely plunged into darkness, with only the faint illumination from the mobile phone screen casting an indistinct lit on his handsome face.
But those profound eyes were all the more enchanting in the dim light, as black and luminous as the night sky. It was as if something inside was flickering.
Shortly afterwards, Glenn picked up his own phone, opening an app he hadn’t used in a long time.
East Sea Fleet.
Life is still busy and fulfilling, with physical challenges from dawn to dusk. There was no time for distractions.
The only rest was sleep.
By comparison, Flossie is faring fairly well. Occasionally, Austin Shepherd and Nathan Foster would not allow them to eat, so everyone was starving after training. Someone would sometimes sneak into the cooking class to beg for food in the middle of the night, but the head of the cooking class knew about the restrictions from Austin and Nathan and didn’t give them a chance.
But, Flossie had special rations.
A big bag of special rations.
Enough for the four people in the dormitory to survive for the remaining few days of the month.
As a result, even Jocelyn Carrington’s attitude towards Flossie improved significantly.
The only thing that upset Flossie was that Becca Reyes, as a traitor and a lightweight friend, was always brazenly giving food to Calvin Ramos.
Ever since Calvin Ramos started dating Becca Reyes, Flossie’s affinity for Calvin dropped a few notches and basically fluctuated between zero and negative.
Nevertheless, Austin Shepherd and Nathan Foster chose to turn a blind eye too. After all, the food was sent by Derek Moore. They couldn’t really take drastic measures.
However, Flossie did not expect that when this round of training was near its end...
Stuart Weston and Calvin Ramos began to fight.
