Chapter 915
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.
