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.
