Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: The First Night I Spent with Her (4)_1
After a while.
Calvin Ramos’s aura finally calmed down.
He carefully released her.
But, to his surprise, he discovered that the woman in his arms had already fallen into a deep sleep at some point.
Calvin Ramos felt quite helpless.
When he had gone out earlier, he had incidentally brought back some dried grass, which was perfect to lay on the ground to conserve heat.
He gently placed her down on the ground, and at the same time, used his jacket as a makeshift mattress.
Calvin Ramos carefully let go of her.
Glancing at her peaceful sleeping face, Calvin Ramos sighed softly, then shifted slightly to the side and added more wood to the fire.
Once the fire grew stronger, he looked down towards Becca Reyes.
He reached out and grabbed her icy fingers.
...
The rain pattered down, and as the downpour waned, it had lessened considerably.
Flossie Wright and Sandy Cruz had finished their dinner.
But—
There was still a large pile of wild boar meat left.
"What should we do with it?"
Massaging her temple, Flossie Wright asked for Sandy Cruz’s opinion.
"We can’t take it with us..."
Sandy Cruz had just begun to speak, not having finished sharing his thoughts, when he caught Flossie Wright’s gaze fixed on him.
It was clear she already had a plan in mind.
His eyebrows twitched slightly, and Sandy Cruz’s face darkened a few shades as he said directly, "You say."
Flossie Wright was somewhat surprised; she really didn’t expect him to be so understanding.
"We’ll take some with us tomorrow, the rest..." She thought for a moment, then tilted her head slightly, "The rest we can put by the fire to dry overnight, and tomorrow leave it here—"
As she spoke, Flossie Wright pointed to the "bed," and then continued, "to see if we’re lucky."
"You’re being charitable?"
Sandy Cruz narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
He couldn’t help but doubt her.
Having been in contact with Flossie Wright for a while now, he rarely saw her do good deeds.
She never did anything without a reason.
Either there was a rationale, or she was interested; otherwise, she wouldn’t bother, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"You could say that."
Flossie Wright nodded quite freely.
"..." Sandy Cruz couldn’t be bothered to respond.
Her thick skin had apparently reached a certain level.
Flossie Wright stood up, intending to climb up and go to sleep, but then she paused.
She bent down slightly, looked at Sandy Cruz from above, and with a sudden smile, asked, "What if the one who comes across it is that Mariana Buck you’re always thinking about?"
Sandy Cruz was startled.
When he looked up again, he found that Flossie Wright had already propped herself up on the "bed," her whole body leaping up lightly to go on top.
"I’ll keep watch for the rest of the night."
Lying flat, Flossie Wright said in an indifferent tone.
Sandy Cruz raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything more; however, his thoughts inadvertently drifted back to Flossie Wright’s previous words.
What if the one who comes across it is that Mariana Buck you’re always thinking about?
To be honest, he wasn’t worried about Mariana Buck.
Because—
She didn’t need anyone else’s concern.
In terms of capability, she was certainly no less skilled than Flossie Wright.
From a psychological standpoint, she rarely showed vulnerability.
