Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1049

Carson’s student were kind of rude though. It was her mentor’s birthday, so shouldn’t she have shown up right away with a gift? Almost everyone else had already come by to pay their respects, but there was still no sign of her anywhere.

Lucinda was searching for Lydia, too. Everyone had already given their gifts in person. Maybe Lydia caught wind that Carson wasn’t accepting new apprentices and now she was too embarrassed to show up, worried that she’d get rejected and make a fool of herself. That had to be it. Lydia always acted like she was above everyone else. If the artist Owen tried to apprentice under Carson and got turned down, everyone would definitely laugh at Lydia for it.

Thinking about this, Lucinda leaned over to Kylie and whispered, “Mom, everyone’s almost finished with the birthday greetings. Why haven’t Lydia and her friend come over yet? The banquet’s about to start.”

Kylie nodded. “I was just looking for your sister, too.”

“Mom, why don’t you give her a call? Maybe she and her friend are in the bathroom together.”

“That’s very thoughtful of you, Lucinda.”

Kylie believed Lucinda was genuinely looking out for Lydia, so she pulled out her phone and gave her a call.

The call connected right away. Kylie’s voice softened. “Lydia, where are you and your friend? Everyone’s gathering to wish Carson a happy birthday.”

Lydia answered, “We’re coming over now.”

“Alright.”

After hanging up, Kylie smiled. “Your sister will be here soon.”

Lucinda clenched her jaw, hiding her irritation. She was determined to make sure Lydia was embarrassed in front of everyone.

Carson still hadn’t seen Lydia and was about to call her himself when a familiar figure appeared in the doorway. His face lit up with a warm, loving smile.

“Lydia, you’re finally here. I was just thinking about you.”

People in the room turned around, their faces full of surprise.

“Wait, isn’t that Miss L?”
