Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1040

“Lucinda, you’re seriously the best.”

“Yes, Lucinda, you’re gorgeous and so kind! If Connor ends up marrying you, I bet he’ll be grinning from ear to ear.”

“No kidding. You are so pretty. It’s impossible for any guy not to fall for you.”

Lucinda’s smile started to strain just a little. If that bitch Lydia had never shown up, she and Connor would have been perfect together. The kind of couple everyone envied. But now… if she wanted to become Connor’s girlfriend, she had to get that annoying Lydia out of the picture first.

“Lucinda, how come we never see Connor around campus? Will we ever get to meet him?”

“Yeah, is he really as hot as everyone says? Is he super sweet to you?”

Lucinda’s fingers curled tighter around her fork. She let out a small sigh, sounding a little down. “Connor’s just really busy. He doesn’t have much time to hang out with me…”

Her friends saw how sad she looked and rushed to comfort her.

“Don’t worry, Lucinda. You’re only a freshman. You’ve got plenty of time to get closer to Connor.”

“Exactly. You never know, maybe you two will get married right after we graduate.”

“And when that happens, you have to invite us to the wedding!”

The words managed to cheer Lucinda up a bit. She smiled and nodded. “You’re right. I’m only eighteen. There’s so much time ahead.”

She told her friends, but she was really saying it to herself. Lydia might have Connor for now, but that didn’t mean things would stay that way forever.

Across campus, Lydia spotted Grace leaving the main gate, wearing a face mask. She quickly turned to Juna and said, “You finish lunch and head back. I have to go.”

Juna looked puzzled. “Wait, you’re leaving already? You haven’t even finished lunch. Where are you going?”
