Chapter 747
Seeing that she was acting a little vigilant and hostile against herself, Xyla laughed and explained elegantly and politely,” There’s no need for you to be so wary of me, Ms. Hill. I won’t do anything to harm you. I’m here just to talk to you.”
It was still raining outside, and the atmosphere in the room was stagnant for a moment as Ryleigh’s eyelids drooped. “You want me to leave Louis, don’t you? Don’t worry, I won’t snatch him from you as soon as my engagement with him is canceled.”
‘Rather than waiting for somebody else to come up to me and make irresponsible remarks in the future, I might as well give it to her
straight now.’
Xyla looked at her for a long time, lowered her head, and chuckled. “I really thought so before I came back to Zlokova.”
She looked out of the window, and a hint of loneliness flashed across her eyes. “I had been with him for six years, and I thought that even though he had broken up with me, I’d still have the opportunity to stay by his side after returning to Zlokova.”
Ryleigh was stunned for a split second and looked at her with a bewildered expression.
The emotions surging in Xyla’s eyes looked lonely and helpless. She looked at Ryleigh and explained, “Take this as a tiny tip from me to you. I once spent six years being next to him, and I still couldn’t get him to accept me into his world.”
Xyla had first seen Louis’ performance in a musical theater, and she had admired him since then.
It could be said that she was the one who had taken the initiative to court Louis actively. It was not that he had never rejected her. It was just that she did not want to give up right off the bat, and he might have given her a chance back then only because of her persistence.
Louis had always been the passive one between the two of them. She had even tried to learn how to play the violin and understand his preferences in order to impress him someday in the future.
Unfortunately, she could not help but admit that-between her and Louis-she would never catch up with him no matter how hard she tried.
Even though she had taken all the steps to get into his world, he had never taken even one step toward her.
Xyla was not reconciled to the fact that she still could not get what she wanted after all those things that she had done.
Ryleigh pursed her lips and looked at her sympathetically. “Uh, Ms. Mayweather, it’s pointless for you to tell me this. Louis and I, we wouldn’t even have gotten to know each other if it weren’t for our families’ arrangements.”
Xyla sneered wryly. “You’re rejecting such a good man who’s been delivered right up to you without even giving him a chance, while the same man that I desperately want to be with has never loved me.”
