Maisie rubbed the bridge of her nose.” Ryleigh Hill, are you dumb or what? You’re engaged to Louis, and you dare

to stay at Joe’s place for one whole night after grabbing a drink with him? Do you know what the public will do to

people like you? They’ll slaughter you on the Internet.”

“I was in a bad mood that day.” Ryleigh propped her head against her arm and stared blankly at the table. “His

exgirlfriend had to attend a dinner, and why didn’t he think about my feelings and our engagement when he went

to the banquet with her as her male companion?

Maisie narrowed her eyes.

Ryleigh laughed out loud abruptly. “The engagement is just a faqade. If it weren’t for the marriage that the two

families arranged, his ex might even be able to get back together again with him.”

Maisie supported her chin with her hand. “If Louis really wants to go back to Xyla, your engagement with him

would’ve gone down the sewage ages ago. Maybe there’s another reason for him to accompany Xyla to the dinner.

Didn’t he explain it to you?”

Ryleigh did not say anything.

Barbara looked at her. “She didn’t even give Mr. Lucas the chance to explain before dragging me to Glitz for a

drink, and that was how things went downhill since then.”

Ryleigh calmed herself down, suppressed all the facial emotions, and tried her best to force a happy smile. “Okay,

let’s not talk about these things today. I’m starving already, and I want to eat. Waiter, can I have the menu?”

Maisie and Barbara exchanged gazes.

Although Ryleigh pretended to be unconcerned on the surface, she really cared a lot about it deep down. After

eating, Maisie drove Ryleigh back to the academy to pick up her backpack.

Maisie asked, “Do you need me to send you back?’.

Ryleigh waved. “I’m fine. I drove here by myself this morning. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Maisie watched as she entered the academy, then stayed back for a moment before driving the car away.

Ryleigh was on the ground floor of the office building when she looked up and saw Xyla coming downstairs.

Her footsteps froze in place for a split second. She then bit her lip and went upstairs in a hurry, pretending that she

did not see her.

Xyla stopped her when she passed by. “Ms. Hill.”



Ryleigh stopped and turned around.” What’s the matter?” Xyla sensed her hostility, but she responded with a smile.

“I have something to tell you.”

“Forget it, I know what you want to say.” Ryleigh crossed her arms and turned her face away. “Don’t worry, I’ll

terminate my engagement with Louis. You and Louis have my blessing.” Before Xyla could speak, Ryleigh had

already turned around and was about to leave. However, Louis was standing at the stairwell entrance, and it

seemed that he had been there for quite some time.

He also seemed to have heard what Ryleigh just said, and his expression dimmed instantly.

Ryleigh was stunned and froze in place for a short moment, but the draught in the corridor dragged her back from

the trance, and she dashed past Louis’ side and headed upstairs.

Ryleigh did not dare to stop, let alone look back. She ran back to her office and closed the door. The lecturers in the

office had already gotten off work, and no one was there to witness her in a daze.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down before starting to pack her backpack.

She walked to the stairs and saw Louis still leaning against the wall, waiting for her, and she turned back

immediately. Louis went after her, caught up to her, dragged her backward, and pushed her against the wall. “Are

you serious about canceling the engagement?”

Seeing that Ryleigh did not speak, he clutched her shoulders with his palms. ” You really are still thinking about Joe

Watson, aren’t you?” “What nonsense are you talking about? Joe and I are just ordinary friends, and nothing is

going on between us. Even if something is truly going on between us, you have no right to control how I make my

choices, so let me go!”

Ryleigh’s shoulders hurt from his grasp. After a few more struggles, Louis clasped her hands, lifted them above her

head, lowered his head, and sealed her lips.



She could only protest with a series of muffled groans, but he forcibly pried open her lips, leaving no gap for her

even to

breathe.
