Mariana Buck closed the cabinet door.
Suddenly, a severe whirlwind shot through the air, heading straight for her right cheek!
Her eyes narrowed, a flash of danger passing by.
Twisting her body, Mariana Buck’s brows furrowed coldly as she dodged the aggressive fist, which, missing its target, swung through the air and turned to aim for her head!
Mariana Buck raised her left hand and effortlessly blocked the fist, her elbow lightly flipping to grab Becca Reyes’s arm.
At the same time, her other hand formed a fist and surged upward toward Becca Reyes’s chin!
Realizing the peril, an infuriated Becca Reyes was about to resist when something grabbed her wrist, the powerful shackle halting her movement.
Then, the hand Mariana Buck used to attack was also firmly grasped.
The movement ceased abruptly.
Both Becca Reyes and Mariana Buck turned their heads to look at the person who had suddenly appeared at their side.
It was Belinda Nichols.
She was standing between the two, expressionless, her face slightly chilly, and when she clenched their wrists, her grip was so tight that even Mariana Buck struggled to free herself.
Becca Reyes’s lingering anger hadn’t subsided, and she took deep breaths but made no further move.
Mariana Buck, however, raised her eyebrows and glanced over at Flossie Wright, who was sitting on a saddle, her voice cool, "Can’t accept defeat?"
A moment ago, Flossie Wright had caught the Steamed Buns that Belinda Nichols had thrown at her; the next moment, the confrontation had stopped.
Now, challenged by Mariana Buck, Flossie Wright’s expression remained indifferent as she put aside the Steamed Buns and the medicinal liquid, and looked toward the scene of the struggle, asking, "Who will come put some ointment on me?"

As soon as she spoke,
Belinda Nichols looked toward Becca Reyes.
Becca Reyes was startled, then understanding dawned, and she gritted her teeth, forcefully shaking off Mariana Buck’s hand, followed swiftly by Belinda Nichols releasing her too.
Turning around, she walked over to Flossie Wright.
Seeing her leave, Belinda Nichols also let go of Mariana Buck’s hand, but as she turned her head, she met Mariana Buck’s eyes, which held a hint of amusement and hidden danger.
Pausing, Belinda Nichols’s expression instantly turned completely cold.
With a light chuckle, Mariana Buck turned her body away, not bothering to pay attention anymore, and she reopened the cabinet door, taking out a bottle of Ointment.
She had been injured too.
After closing the door, she stripped off her jacket and shirt, revealing the tank top underneath, along with the bruises on her shoulder and arm.
Her injuries were not as severe as Flossie Wright’s, but they were still there.
Watching her casually apply medicine in front of the mirror, Becca Reyes couldn’t help but laugh upon receiving the Ointment.
She had really thought Flossie Wright was utterly defeated by her. She hadn’t expected Flossie Wright to be such a tough opponent, not holding back at all in her strikes.
"Lost your mind?"
Flossie Wright slanted a glance at her, looking at her silly laughing face.
"You..." Grinding her teeth and turning back, Becca Reyes glared at her but soon relented, "Fine, considering you’re injured, I won’t make a fuss."
Turning around, Flossie Wright stretched out her delicate arm, picked up a Steamed Bun from the bed, and began eating slowly and methodically.
Resigned, Becca Reyes crouched down, lifted the back of Flossie Wright’s shirt, and prepared to apply the medicine.
But she was shocked when she took a closer look,
Becca Reyes gasped in surprise.
What met her eyes was a swath of bruises, almost covering the entire back, with hardly any unmarred skin left. Becca Reyes inhaled sharply at the sight.
"Don’t you feel pain at all?"
Opening her mouth, Becca Reyes asked indignantly.
"It hurts."
While eating her Steamed Bun, Flossie Wright replied lazily.
She wasn’t made of iron, after all. With injuries on her body, of course it would hurt.
