Lydia figured Soren must have been trying to scare Sandy. He went all out with his disguise and even took her somewhere completely out of the way. In the end, though, Sandy turned things around on him. With the crime scene wiped clean by fire, she managed to get away.
Lydia sent the footage she’d clipped to Byron. The second he got it, he was so thrilled he almost dropped to his knees in thanks. Seriously, how did she crack the case this fast? He messaged her, full of awe. [You’re a genius. Seriously, you’re like magic.]
Lydia had just shut her laptop when someone knocked on her door. Kylie’s soft voice floated in. “Lydia, are you in there?”
Lydia walked over and opened the door to find Kylie looking at her with gentle concern. “Lucinda’s already picked out her dress for tonight. Have you decided what you’re wearing yet? Do you want me to help you choose?”
Lucinda was right beside her, smiling sweetly. “Yeah, have you picked out your outfit? Want us to help?”
Lydia answered calmly. “I’m just going to wear what I’ve got on.” She was dressed in a fitted black piece from her LYLX collection, comfy but sharp. It was her usual style.
Lucinda’s eyes widened in surprise. “You’re going to the Robinsons’ like that?”
Kylie smiled, shaking her head slightly. “That’s just how Lydia likes to dress, and she looks great. Besides, it’s just a family dinner. There’s no dress code.”
Lucinda still looked uneasy. “But…”
Before she could finish, Garrett’s voice cut in from behind. “Lydia’s Miss L. Whatever she wears is instantly cool.”
Kylie turned around, surprised and happy. “Garrett, you’re home early?”
Garrett had pulled an all-nighter at the lab with Kevin, trying to figure out an antidote for Lydia. He ran a hand through his hair, looking tired but determined. “We’re all going to the Robinsons’ tonight, so I wanted to get back early,” he said, glancing at Lydia. “What you’re wearing really suits you. It’s got personality.”
The truth was, Lydia still had some injuries. Wearing a formal dress wasn’t a good idea.

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
