Bailey's breathing also began to speed up, his cheeks slightly flushed, tense with a hint of excitement. Their lips grew closer and closer.

Just then, all of a sudden, Bailey's phone rang.

It was like an invisible pair of scissors that suddenly cut the taut strings between them.

Henry immediately let go of his hand and returned to his original position.

Bailey fumbled through his phone and answered it.

A woman's sweet voice came through the receiver, "Hello! You have been drawn the second prize by our program team. The prize is one million yuan in cash and an off-road jeep. You can claim the prize by paying five thousand yuan in taxes..."

It turned out to be a call from a swindler.

"I won't take the prize. Come over."

"What? I'll come over?" On the other end of the line, the swindler was a little slow to react.

"I'm from the public security bureau, and there are still cases to be solved this year. Come and help me complete the task."Bailey said coldly.

"Click." Without a word, the swindler hung up the phone at once.

"The country is cracking down hard on telecom fraud. It's just too harmful." Henry looked at Bailey's phone and said resentfully.

"It's nothing. Anyway, it didn't harm me." Bailey put away the phone.

"But it did me harm and ruined my good things." Thinking of his failure, Henry almost had tears in his eyes.

Bailey blushed. Had it not been for the unexpected interruption of the swindler's call, perhaps Henry would have succeeded. Just now, my mind was also in a mess.

"Or shall we do it again now?"Henry chuckled.

"You dare." Bailey was sober at this moment, and she opened her fist. "Don't forget that I am a female self-defense instructor, and I specialize in dealing with all kinds of lawbreakers."

"At the camp, you dare to punch me so frequently? You should call me Sir Henry with great respect."

"The Ascalia Military District is so big and I can't see you, so there's no need to call you Sir Henry."

"Hehe, I'll arrange a suitable spot for you so that you can see me all the time." Henry wanted Bailey to join the army with the intention of keeping her by his side and looking after her well, not allowing her to roam freely in the camp

"Henry, Grandma has said that when we get to the military camp, we'll draw a line."

"She's asking you and me to have a secret marriage, but she doesn't say we can't meet. Don't try to change the concept."

Bailey was rather concerned about Tessa, fearing that she would leave the military and be left alone at home to take care of herself, but Henry was very attentive and brought in a nurse and a logistics officer from the military district hospital to House of Mitchell, saying they were community volunteers. To come to House of Mitchell to serve, this relieved Bailey's worries.

Bailey, who had been packing her bags at home for a few days, said that her unit had sent her to a training class and that she would be away from home for some time. Then she said goodbye to Tessa and, carrying her simple luggage, went out of the house.

Because, as agreed in advance, Bailey's report to the Ascalia Military District was not to be made a big fuss about, so as not to be discovered what connection she had with House of Morris, Henry could not send Alvin to pick Bailey up by car.

When Bailey got off the bus and stood in front of the Ascalia Military District, she realized that it was much more solemn than she had imagined, with armed sentries, stately military district buildings, and soldiers passing by from time to time.

A large sign that read "Military stronghold, no trespass" stood beside it.

It was only then that Bailey realized she had taken a step, as if she had stepped into another world, that she was going to change her identity from an ordinary citizen to a national soldier.

A sense of pride and honor welled up in her heart. From then on, she was going to put on that handsome uniform and officially become a female soldier.

With excitement and force, Bailey forgot that there was a steel speed bump on the road and heard a "click", and the trolley she was dragging got stuck there, and a wheel dropped off in an instant.

Bailey was taken aback. There was no way out, so he had to carry the box by hand.

But when Bailey grabbed the handle of the box and lifted it up, the handle dropped off.

Bailey was stunned.

As if still not satisfied with the commotion, a grey car came from behind her. The driver honked and signaled Bailey to get out of the way and not to block the road.

Bailey glared at the suitcase that was deliberately making trouble with her. The wheels fell off, the handles fell off, and she couldn't drag it or pull it.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and carried the box onto her shoulder. She carried the box to one side, making way for the door.

Instead of driving straight into the military compound, the grey sedan chair stopped right in front of Bailey. The constable ran out of the driver's seat, took the box Bailey was carrying on his shoulder and put it in the trunk.

Bailey, not knowing what was going on, looked up and saw the back seat of the sedan chair slowly roll down the window.

Carl's face peeked out from behind the window. He was dressed in a neat military uniform and carried the rank of major on his shoulder.
