She simply wanted Flossie Wright to suffer a little.
To see her humiliated, to see her best injured, and to be sent away due to an inability to participate in training.
These days, she saw Flossie every day, watching her receive accolades from the Instructor, watching her excellently complete training, and watching her be recognized by others...
Envy and resentment took root in her heart, so she thoughtlessly chose to sabotage.
Only now did she suddenly realize, once the truth came out, the consequences... were unimaginable.
"Sister Mia, what are you doing here?"
Just as fear was spreading at the bottom of her heart, she heard an inquiring voice ahead, and Mia Lawson involuntarily shuddered.
Sensing her fear, the young nurse looked puzzled and quickly went over, holding her arm and asking, "Sister Mia, what’s wrong?"
"It’s nothing."
Mia Lawson pushed her hand away and replied coldly.
"Oh." The nurse, baffled, blinked and without thinking too deeply, promptly said, "Sister Mia, it seems Flossie Wright is injured. Let’s take the first-aid kit over and wait for them."
Mia Lawson nodded hesitantly.
They won’t find out... They won’t find out... They won’t find out...
Closing and then reopening her eyes, Mia Lawson tried to remain calm as she waited alongside the young nurse by the edge of the cliff with the first-aid kit.
However, for her, every minute and every second was torturous.
Even with Glenn Hutchinson, whom she had longed for, standing beside her, she couldn’t bring herself to glance over.
Twenty minutes later.
With Sandy Cruz’s help, Flossie Wright finally moved to the edge of the cliff.
Before the two could climb up, the others swarmed around them in a rush.
Flossie Wright was covered in black lines.
Soon, Nathan Foster lost his temper, pointing at the crowd and scolding, "Why are you squeezing in? What if it collapses? Damn it, everyone back off!"
So, the group immediately took a few steps back.
The area around this cliff was truly unsafe, and if they caused the ground to collapse and everyone fell, the situation would escalate significantly.
As they moved forward and back, Glenn Hutchinson had already reached above Flossie Wright, bent down, and reached out his hand to her, "Give me your hand."
Hearing the familiar voice, Flossie Wright looked up slightly.
She saw the color of the army regular uniform.
Brownish-green.
Darker than green.
The afterglow of the sunset illuminated him from behind, slanting over his entire body, casting a warm yellow over his handsome features and softening the icy chill lingering deep in his eyes. He stood above, bending over, extending his distinct-knuckled hand toward her.
As her eyes lifted, they met his gaze.
She hesitated for a moment.
In his deep eyes, she saw emotions fierce and complex.
At the same time, Sandy Cruz glanced at Glenn Hutchinson and then promptly let go of her wrist, placing his hands on the edge to jump up.
Without much thought, Flossie extended her injured hand.
The next moment, Glenn Hutchinson caught her wrist and pulled her up from below onto solid ground.
For Flossie Wright, the feeling of solid ground was fleeting. Before she could make sense of it, she was hoisted up around the waist, and looking back, she saw only Glenn Hutchinson’s face, cold as frost.
"Hutchinson..."
Nathan Foster walked over, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by a chilling response.
"I’ll take her to the infirmary."
