Fortunately, her gaze swept around and found an empty spot in a corner.
The table had eight seats, four on each side; it was wiped clean, rather pleasing to the eyes.
Walking over, Flossie Wright took her seat.
But then—
She hadn’t even peeled her egg when two figures approached her table.
Barely lifting her eyes, Flossie noticed the two approaching and paused in the act of peeling her egg.
"Calvin, let’s sit here," said a charmingly soft voice from above.
Flossie leaned slightly backward and saw Cherry Hamilton’s face, smiling demurely. Radiant with the bloom of love, Cherry looked even more attractive and seductive in every gentle move she made.
Even in a training uniform, she was eye-catching.
Flossie had some memories of Cherry.
Beautiful, with a flawless figure, a nice temperament, not one to suffer losses, and able to win others’ affections—with a pretty good reputation to boot.
During training, her comprehensive performance was top-notch. Unlike Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes, who were seriously deficient in certain areas, Cherry succeeded in all subjects but still fell far behind when compared to Calvin Ramos.
However, Flossie had never really paid her any mind before Cherry managed to catch Calvin Ramos’s attention with her schemes.
Calvin Ramos looked over emotionlessly in Flossie’s direction.
Their eyes met briefly before they both averted their gazes, as if by mutual agreement.
"No problem, right?" asked Cherry with a light smile to Flossie as she set down her tray, seeming quite cordial.
With that said, she prepared to sit.
"What if I said there was?" Flossie’s eyebrows rose as she swept a frosty gaze toward Cherry. Her words, slowly and deliberately spoken, shot out like needles, causing Cherry to hesitate slightly as she was bending down to sit.
Straightening up, Cherry’s expression changed subtly, her annoyance and embarrassment clearly visible.
Upon seeing this, Flossie sneered.
"Is that necessary?" Cherry looked down at Flossie, a smile playing on her lips, her voice tinged with doubt.
The implication was clear to all.
In this group of recruits, everyone knew that Flossie and Becca Reyes were close. Apart from those directly involved, no more than five people were aware of Becca’s relationship with Calvin Ramos.
Naturally, Flossie was one of them.
Now, Becca had split up with Calvin, and Cherry had taken Becca’s place.
Cherry’s sarcasm was blatant—was it necessary to be so confrontational over stealing your best friend’s ex-boyfriend?
Yet, it was clear to everyone that Cherry had deliberately chosen this seat.
"It is necessary," Flossie replied, withdrawing her gaze and methodically peeling her egg. "I don’t like sitting with ’sluts’."
Cherry’s face immediately darkened.
How dare she call her a slut?
"Sit down," came a steady, warm voice from beside her.
After setting down his tray, Calvin Ramos ignored Flossie’s words and took the seat next to her.
With a swift flicker in her eyes, Cherry glanced at Calvin. Seeing his gentle profile, a surge of happiness filled her heart, and she obediently sat next to him.
Flossie casually raised an eyebrow and began to eat her egg, completely unfazed by the situation.
This was indeed a fresh turn of events.
Becca had once doggedly pursued Calvin, always guarding his reputation, scarcely daring to get close; but now, well...
Thankfully, Cherry wasn’t too foolish either; she was quiet during the meal, not overly affectionate with Calvin.
But still—
Some small gestures were utterly intolerable.
Flossie finished her Fried Dough Strip and Steamed Buns.
