Kylie and Cameron just sat there, stunned. There were actually things happening they didn’t know about? Still, it kind of made sense. They weren’t really involved in anything these days. Blake was the one managing everything, so of course he had all the inside information.
Kylie suddenly looked worried. “Lydia, your uncle got investigated too?”
The whole thing had been kept under wraps, so Kylie really had no idea her own brother had been questioned.
Lydia nodded, her tone calm. “Yeah. Uncle William’s about to be promoted to Minister of Foreign Affairs. It’s totally normal for them to run background checks before he takes office.”
Cameron still didn’t get it. He frowned, then just asked, “But Lydia, why would you be investigated with him?”
They really weren’t on the same page.
Blake seemed to catch on, his eyes going wide as he stared at Lydia. “Wait, Lydia, you’re not... on the government payroll, are you?”
Kylie and Cameron both stared, completely shocked.
Lydia just smiled at Blake. “I am. But I’m in a different department from Uncle William. They probably just wanted to make sure there were no conflicts of interest, so they had to check everything out, just to be sure.”
Blake grinned and gave Lydia a thumbs up. “Lydia, you keep surprising me. Seriously.”
Her uncle was about to become Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Lydia had been investigated alongside him. There was no way her job was a minor one. Blake was honestly amazed. His sister had managed to surprise him again.
Kylie and Cameron were still trying to wrap their heads around it. Was their daughter really this impressive?
Kylie finally found her voice. “Lydia, are you and William alright?”
Lydia laughed. “Of course we are. If something happened to us, would I even be here right now?”
The one in trouble was Jackson, not them.
Kylie let out a breath. “That’s good. We’re heading to your uncle’s place tonight to celebrate his promotion. Can you come with us?”

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...
