Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1129
Byron opened the door to Grace’s apartment. The place still carried the mess left behind by the last police search.
He turned on the lights. The soft yellow glow pushed back the shadows, but it couldn’t make the room feel any less empty or cold.
The apartment Grace had chosen just didn’t get much light.
They split up. Lydia headed for the bedroom, while Byron took the living room. He checked every drawer in the coffee table, going through every corner with care.
Inside, he found a mess of receipts and makeup samples, but there was no sign of a phone.
He checked the TV stand next, but that turned up nothing, too.
Byron walked into the bedroom, his brows drawn together. “There’s no sign of the phone, Lydia. Not even a hint.”
Lydia looked up from where she was searching. She had already turned over the wardrobe, checked the bedside tables, and even crawled under the bed. Still nothing.
“Do you think Frank lied to us?” Byron asked. You could hear the doubt in his voice. Frank was hardly trustworthy, with a rap sheet as long as your arm.
Lydia shook her head. “He’s locked up right now. He wouldn’t risk lying to me. The phone has to be here. Or maybe close by.”
She got up and drifted toward the window without really thinking about it. A soft breeze slipped in through the half-open pane and brushed her hair back from her face.
Her eyes scanned the view outside. Suddenly, she stopped, staring at the rooftop below.
There, in one corner, something glinted in the sunlight. It looked like a pile of shiny fragments, scattered across the rooftop.
“Byron, come here!” Lydia’s voice was bright with excitement as she pointed toward the rooftop.
Byron rushed over, following her gaze. “That looks like a phone.”

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...
