Ryleigh fell to the ground, and the skin of her palm scratched against the floor and bled. She winced and
balled up her fist.
The instructor crossed her arm. “Stop pretending. I just pushed you lightly, and you fell?” “If Mr. Lucas
saw this, he would say that we’re bullying you. You fell, so don’t come blaming us.”
“You-‘ Ryleigh was going to retaliate when a woman walked over with her phone. “I’m sorry, I accidentally
took a video of the interesting event that just took place. I wonder if this video can help clear this lady’s
name.”
Ryleigh looked over and was surprised because it was Xyla.
The instructors all turned pale.
Jodie smiled when she saw that it was Xyla. “Xy, why are you here?”
She walked toward her. “Don’t misunderstand, Xy. It was an accident.”
Ryleigh stood up. Xyla turned to look at Jodie. “We’re not very close.”
Jodie’s smile froze, but she still calmly said, “Don’t you recognize me? I’m Jodie Smalls.”
“I know you’re Jodie Smalls.” Xyla twirled her phone around and smiled. “But I don’t think we’re very
close.”
Jodie started looking embarrassed. It had been a while since she met Xyla. When she had still been
dating Louis, they weren’t close.
She looked at Ryleigh, smiled, and asked,” Ms. Mayweather, are you here to see Lew?”
Xyla looked at Ryleigh. “How could you bag Louis but can’t even deal with this woman and let a few old
bats bully you?”
Xyla crossed her arms. “You’re a Hill and Mrs. Lucas, and you know Mr. Goldmann. Why are you making
it easy for these few side characters?”
Ryleigh beamed.
The few instructors lost their tempers.” What did you call us?”
Xyla turned and glared at them. “Are you going deaf?” She walked closer to them, and the instructors
took a step back, probably stunned by her aura.
“You only bully Ryleigh because she doesn’t retaliate and said she came in through connections. If she
really came in through connections, you wouldn’t be able to bully her. The few of you wouldn’t stand a
chance.”
The instructors stuttered, “That’s… Those are just the rules here.”
Xyla smiled. “What rules? You’re doing all these and telling me that you have rules here? Did you set the
rules?”
She stuck her fingers into her hair and combed through it. Her 5’9″ modelesque figure and imposing air
put them in their place. “Don’t you know that Louis invested in the academy and is already a
shareholder? Ryleigh would have enough reason to do whatever she wanted just by that alone. Even if
she decides to fight you, all you can do is to keep quiet.”
The instructors hung their heads and looked pale.
Xyla walked to Jodie and lifted her chin, ” As for you.”
Jodie was stunned, “W-What do you mean, Ms. Mayweather?”
“I remembered that you had a crush on Louis when we were in school. You pretended to be an innocent
girl in public but wrote love letters to him in private.
Who haven’t you bullied?”
