“You.
“Men like gentle and lovable women A shrew like you would probably never get any man to take a fancy
to you.” Having said that, Maizie then mocked Ryleigh ‘1f you weren’t the daughter of the Hills, a family
that has always had a connection through marriages with the Lucases, Mr Lucas wouldn’t be so unlucky
to have to marry you.”
Ryleigh’s expression turned gloomy instantly. She raised her arm and was about to slap Maizie.
Maizie lifted her cheek, welcoming her palm without fear
However, Ryleigh’s arm movement was intercepted before the impact.
Louis dragged Ryleigh behind him and glared at her. Won’t you feel ashamed of yourself to act against
her in front of so many people?”
The people around them were glancing in their direction as if they were all waiting for a climax. If that
slap landed, someone would definitely take pictures and spread them online.
But Ryleigh was not reconciled and flung his hand off her arm. “Who are you to tell me what to do?” “Mr.
Lucas, thank God that you’ve come just in time
Your fiancee is so fierce. She even wanted to hit me just now. My cheek would be swollen now if you
hadn’t stopped her.”
Maizie’s expression looked so pitiful, she was confident that all men would fall for this, and she hoped
that Louis would sympathize with her, pity her, and argue with Ryleigh on the spot.
But she was wrong
Louis did not even look at her and asked Ryleigh directly, “Do you plan to come with me?”
Ryleigh looked suspicious. “Why should I go with you?”
Seeing that Louis did not fall for her plot, Maizie did not stop there. “Mr. Lucas, your fiancee is the one
who went overboard first. Shouldn’t you ask her to apologize to me first?”
Ryleigh was about to curse at Maizie when Louis glared at her indifferently. “What makes you think you
deserve an apology from my fiancee?”
Maizie’s expression was stiff.
“Just because you’re about to get married to the Bouchers?”
Maizie was rendered speechless.
“Aren’t you getting a little too big for your boot? Don’t you look at yourself in the mirror every day before
you leave your house? What makes you think that you’re so beautiful that all men would revolve around
you like flies?”
Maizie’s expression gradually became gloomy.
Louis showed no mercy and continued. “But you’re correct in that way too. Only flies love to revolve
around a pile of sh*t. However, I’m no fly, so I’m not interested in a pile of crap.”
Ryleigh chuckled.
Maizie’s face flushed with anger-it was the first time she was humiliated by a man in public.
Louis dragged Ryleigh and was about to leave the scene while Ryleigh grabbed the coffee on the table
and staggered out after him.
Ryleigh laughed out loud as soon as she got out of the door. She had always thought that what Louis
said to her before was offensive enough, but what he said to Maizie outshone anything that he had said
to her before that.
Seeing how Maizie’s expression changed just now, she could no longer hold back.
Louis let go of her and turned around. What’s so funny?” “Isn’t that funny?” Ryleigh picked up her coffee
and inserted a straw into the cup. “I wanted to laugh when I saw how Maizie’s face changed just now. All
the wrath within me has been relieved. She truly deserved to be given a bollocking by any man one of
these days.”
Ryleigh had been quite angry at first-that was why she had wanted to rush in and kick Maizie’s butt, but
she did not want to do so now.
Louis snorted and leaned over, approaching her. “So shouldn’t you thank me?” Ryleigh sucked her
coffee through the straw. “Why should I thank you?”
Seeing that Louis’ expression turned gloomy, Ryleigh blinked. “I didn’t ask you to give her hell. You’re the
one who decided to do so yourself, so why should I thank you?”
Louis had been played and scoffed out of anger. He then snatched the coffee in her hand from her.
Ryleigh was stunned and became furious “Louis Lucas, you can come at me if you’re not satisfied with
my response. How dare you make a move on my coffee? How can you call yourself a hero if that’s how
you react when things don’t go your way!?”
“Don’t you have another coffee in your other hand?”
“This is for Zee!”
Louis narrowed his eyes and gave off a pregnant smirk
You should feel honored that I’m willing to use the straw you’ve used.’
