Flossie Wright left the ward, returning to the Base with Becca Reyes who had been waiting outside.
In Flossie's view, Stuart Weston's current situation was a classic case of self-inflicted woes.
It was just that Calvin Ramos's image was so deeply ingrained, and now he was still behaving recklessly in front of him...
It was clearly a death wish.
Back at the Base, Flossie went to the Shooting Range to practice a few rounds of shooting, while Becca Reyes, feeling listless, wandered aimlessly around the playground and then absentmindedly made her way to the beach.
Yet, even she hadn't expected to encounter Daniel Ramos there.
Daniel Ramos had just come out of the sea, and with his shirt removed, his robust chest was exposed, basking in the soft afternoon sunlight. Droplets of water trickled down, and his sharply contoured face was hidden in the shadows, obscuring the cold expression.
Gazing at him in a daze, Becca Reyes was quite bewildered.
