When she saw how pale Jodie turned, Xyla leaned closer. “You try to scare the women around Louis
away because you’re not good enough for him? Do you think you’d get a chance to dance ballet if you
didn’t get close to me because my father was the director of Royal Crown?” .
Jodie’s shoulder shuddered.
Ryleigh looked at her curiously. Xyla patted her face. “Do you think you’re so pure and innocent? You
used your relationship with me and got to know the people in my father’s circle and sold yourself out just
so they would pay for your ballet career overseas.
“After so many years of dancing, you still haven’t gotten famous, just enjoying life with money people
give you. If it weren’t because they saw through your plan and cut off your finances, would you have
returned?”
TICU!
Xyla didn’t speak too loud, but everyone could clearly hear her, and they were shocked. Jodie looked
more and more embarrassed. Her face was pale as a sheet, as if she had faced immense shame, while
her eyes filled with tears. “… I didn’t. That’s b*llsh*t.”
“Should I make a call to find out for you?” Xyla flashed her phone and almost tapped on her contact list.
The moment Jodie stepped forward to stop her, the few instructors who were supporting her stood in
their spots in silence. No one knew if it were true or not, but when Jodie stopped Xyla from making that
call, it was clear that she had something to hide. If she was innocent, Xyla could have made that call,
and she would still be fine. Xyla laughed. “Don’t dare to?”
“Ms. Mayweather, I’ve never done anything to you. Why are you doing this to me?”
When her real self was exposed, Jodie’s facade of gentleness shattered into pieces.
Xyla casually looked at her phone and then looked up. “Because I can’t stand you. You pretend to be a
victim in front of others, start conflicts, and pretend to be generous so that people like you and push
Ryleigh away. I’ve seen a lot of women like you.
You should become an actress with your acting skills. Why be a ballet dancer?”
Ryleigh looked at Xyla, obviously surprised that the latter would stand up for her. Jodie’s shoulders
shuddered while she bit her lip. “I don’t know what I’ve done wrong. Ryleigh put me in a tough spot. What
did I do wrong?”
Ryleigh couldn’t stand it anymore. “What did I do to you?”
Jodie’s eyes were red. “Are you going to pretend that you didn’t? When I talked to Lew, you put me in an
awkward position!’
Ryleigh suddenly remembered what she had done the day before. Even though she was intentional, it
wasn’t considered a’ tough spot’.
Xyla suddenly laughed. “You mentioned me to Louis?”
Jodie was quiet
Xyla crossed her arms. “I don’t believe you haven’t asked around about Louis now that you’re back. If
you did, there’s no way you wouldn’t know that he’s married. What was your reasoning behind
mentioning his ex in front of his wife?”
“l-1 was just…” Jodie shook and tried really hard to explain. “What I said was true. You loved Lew so
much, and you made a great couple. Was it wrong to assume that you’d be together forever?”
Ryleigh looked down but didn’t say a word.
Xyla laughed. “Were you really just sorry that I didn’t end up with Louis?” Jodie turned pale again as
Xyla’s eyes pierced through her. “Didn’t you mention me because you want Ryleigh to be jealous and
cause troubles in their relationship?”
