"I’m not blind."
With her arms crossed over her chest, Flossie Wright glanced sideways at him with a slight sneer.
Glenn Hutchinson was quite tall.
Approaching 1.7 meters, Flossie was tall among women, allowing her to frequently notice men shorter than herself as she walked in the southern regions.
However, standing beside Glenn Hutchinson, her height advantage vanished without a trace, his near head-taller stature, just by standing straight beside her, was an invisible pressure.
"You’re not blind, I am."
Glenn Hutchinson calmly picked up the conversation.
Looking at him coolly, Flossie was almost amused by his audacity.
"Comrade Flossie Wright."
He called out in a deep voice, now with a seriousness and formality unlike before.
Flossie slightly furrowed her brows and let her arms fall to her sides.
It wasn’t the stance of standing at attention, but it lacked a bit of her usual casual slouch.
Staring at her intently, Glenn Hutchinson spoke slowly, his words deliberate, "I extend to you a serious invitation."
Flossie was puzzled.
"Are you interested in joining our Forces?"
He asked in a low voice, speaking slowly yet firmly, his voice not loud, but each word felt as though it was hammering into the listener’s core.
He was extending an invitation to her right here.
Road, bustling with traffic,. Passersby, of all different shapes and colors.
The surrounding area was filled with noise and activity, yet when he spoke, it seemed as if the two of them were isolated from these two different worlds for a moment.
This was his first official invitation.
At her most restless time.
She knew his Forces, an elite Force selected from the country’s elite units, a group that deals in covert operations at the risk of death for the nation—an elite force that was highly feared and considered unreachable.

Yet, that was also the place where her hatred had taken root.
At that time, she wondered whether Glenn Hutchinson would have extended such an invitation if he knew about her past.
It was an unrealistic notion in her mind.
Thus, it flashed through her thoughts and she didn’t dwell on it.
Therefore, at that time, she also did not know that the man standing in front of her had come with such speculations about her identity.
Back then, Glenn Hutchinson, extending the invitation, really wanted to deny those speculations about her identity.
They each had their own thoughts.
It didn’t take her long to decide, Flossie lifted her face into a mocking smile, her voice nevertheless firm, "No, I refuse."
She refused.
No need to even consider it.
That Force was not a place she would set foot in, nor one she could integrate with.
She also knew that even if she really went, Glenn Hutchinson wouldn’t favor her and definitely wouldn’t keep her there.
So, such an invitation was merely a ticket; whether she could stay depended on her own abilities.
Too bad, she simply didn’t need it.
"You have time to consider."
Not surprised by her response, Glenn Hutchinson remained composed.
In fact, he had also extended the same invitation to Rowdy Brightwill, and at that time, Rowdy Brightwill had also refused him without hesitation.
To go or not to go, it was their own choice.
But he had the right to issue an invitation.
"I..." no need to consider.
Flossie opened her mouth but didn’t speak the words, instead she briefly gathered her thoughts and said blandly, "Goodbye."
Repeating the same words, Glenn Hutchinson watched her.
Flossie turned and left.
This time, Glenn Hutchinson did not hold her back.
