Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1111

“Let's talk about it at the station,” the officer said.

Just like that, Lucinda was escorted away by the police.

Cameron and Kylie rushed back to their rooms, quickly changed clothes, and hurried to the station.

The interrogation room was cold and sterile, with a harsh light shining right on Lucinda’s pale face. Lydia sat quietly to the side, her eyes steady and calm as she watched her.

“So, do you have anything you want to say?” Lydia’s voice was even, but there was an edge to it that made Lucinda shrink inside.

Lucinda bit her lip, feeling embarrassed in a way she never had before. “Lydia, I was just worried about you. I was afraid something might happen to you. That’s all, I swear.”

She was lucky she hadn't said much during that call with Grace. She held on to that, refusing to admit to anything more.

Lydia let out a short, cold laugh. “Did you really think I wouldn’t find out just because you and Grace deleted your messages? You have no idea what your phones really showed me.”

Lucinda’s face turned even paler, almost see-through. She squeezed her hands together, her palms slick with sweat. All she could think about was Lydia using this as a reason to kick her out of the Norwood family. If that happened, she would lose everything.

Lydia had already recovered Grace’s chat logs. There was everything—Grace hiring escorts, having people following Lydia, and the two of them plotting how to ruin Lydia’s reputation. Lydia hadn’t bothered to dig up anything older. Tonight, there was more than enough.

She didn’t actually want to kick Lucinda out, at least not yet. She wanted her parents to see Lucinda’s true colors for themselves. After all, they had loved Lucinda for eighteen years. They'd need time to face the truth.
