Chapter 699

“We’re not compatible? Is that all I get?” Xyla walked around and in front of him with bloodshot eyes. “We
had been together for six years. You love music, so I picked up the violin for you. I’ve always tried my
best to get close to you, to walk into your heart, but what about you? All you did was trifle with my
feelings for you.”

Louis’s eyes looked moved. “I’m sorry.”

“I don’t want your apology.” Xyla hugged him. “Louis, I can even become the kind of woman you like if
you don’t like the type of woman I am. You told me that you would try to accept me, but it’s been six
years now

‘I’ve never gotten into his heart, and all I got from him back then was a breakup and a mere “we aren’t
compatible”. I’m not reconciled to how things turned out!

Louis pushed her away and quickly put down the hand that was grabbing her shoulder. “You’re fine, and
there’s no need for you to change. Just think of it as a favor that I owe you. I can make up for it with any
other things, but I’m not worthy of your love and attention.”

He left the performance hall without looking back.

Xyla’s hands, resting on both sides of her body, could

not help but clench tightly into fists.

‘I was the one who courted Louis back then, but he rejected me, saying that I’m not his type. But I didn’t
care much about that, and I was willing to become the woman that’s more his cup of tea. I even picked
up basic violin skills and tried to learn to enjoy music because of him.



‘On the other hand, he tried to accept me too, and I really thought I had a chance to impress him and
even walk into his heart someday back then.

‘However, throughout the six years that we were together, Louis could be heedful at times, but he could
also be rather indifferent to me sometimes. He would smile at me when he was happy, but he could also
ignore me as if I was invisible when he was not in the mood.

‘I had been paying a lot of attention to Louis when I was abroad all these years. He had not been
together with another woman ever since he broke up with me, and that’s great news for me. After all, I’m
the only exgirlfriend that he’s ever announced to the public, even though my title as his girlfriend seemed
rather nominal.





‘However, he got engaged to the daughter of the Hills out of the blue three years ago. He once
mentioned that he doesn’t like that his family loves to make marriage arrangements for him on his behalf,
but still, he compromised in the end.

‘So how can I be reconciled!?

‘I have a better figure and more eye-catching looks, but what does that useless piece of trash have in
comparison? She’s won just because she has a marriage contract with Louis!?’

The assistant called Xyla at this time and seemed to have told her that Soul Jewelry had declined her
offer. Her expression changed a little.

In the hospital…



Maisie and Kennedy went on a stroll in the garden. Kennedy’s arm injury was recovering well, and he
had been able to take care of himself. It was said that he could be discharged from the hospital in a
week.

Some elderly people could be seen walking around, playing chess, and even sunbathing in the garden.

Kennedy turned to look at her. “Zee, aren’t you afraid that Ms. Mayweather will make a fuss about it after
rejecting her offer to endorse our products?”

Xyla had gotten rejected by Soul when she was willing to swallow her pride and offer to endorse Soul’s
products. In the eyes of an outsider, Soul would be crowned as an “insensible” and “immode$t” company.

Nonetheless, Maisie did not care. “Whatever, I don’t think she sincerely wants to get into a collaboration
with Soul. I’m looking for a pure mutualistic relationship that promotes a win-win collaboration, not a
business relationship that has someone else’s personal issues mixed in it.”

“Personal issues?” Kennedy was puzzled.

Maisie smiled and gave it to him straight. “She’s my cousin’s ex. And the only condition for her to
endorse our products is for me to get Ryleigh to cancel her marriage engagement with Louis. Do you
think I’m someone who would do so?”

Only then did Kennedy realize. “Ms. Mayweather wants to use your identity to facilitate the affairs
between Mr. Lucas and her?”

“Not necessarily.” Maisie shook her head. “She knows that Ryleigh is my best friend, and she thinks she
can restrain Ryleigh through me. She thinks that I’ll see how many benefits she can make for Soul after
getting into a collaboration with her. And with that, I’ll keep one eye shut and choose not to intervene
when she makes a move on Ryleigh in the future.”
