Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1166
The moment Lydia spoke, Lucinda's face fell and her heart skipped a beat. What was Lydia getting at? Did she somehow know Lucinda had slipped something into her soup last time? No way. It had to be Lydia just stirring things up. Maybe she was annoyed Lucinda had made soup for their parents and grandpa today and was just picking a fight out of jealousy. That had to be it! She was jealous, plain and simple. If Lydia really knew about the drug, with her petty attitude, she’d have run straight to their parents. She would have jumped at the chance to get Lucinda thrown out again.
Trying to keep her cool, Lucinda put on her sweetest voice. “I’m sorry. I’ll work harder on my soup next time. Maybe I can finally make one you like.”
Mr. Norwood couldn’t take it any longer. “Lydia, Lucinda did her best. She spent the whole day in the kitchen. Why don’t you just have some before you go?”
Lydia just smiled. This old clone really was something. She’d already said she didn’t like the soup, but he kept pushing her to drink it. Sometimes it felt like he’d been programmed to always take Lucinda’s side.
“No thanks. Mrs. Bland’s birthday is today and I promised some friends I’d go to her party. If I don’t leave now, I’ll be late.”
As soon as Lydia mentioned the Bland family, Kylie and Cameron perked up. “The Bland family? Lydia, do you know someone from the Bland family?”
The Blands were in business, too, and had a bit of a name in the Capital, though they were a notch below families like the Jeffersons, Norwoods, Lowes, and Davises. Their family did some business with the Blands, but they weren’t exactly close.
Lydia just nodded and made up an excuse. “She’s my classmate’s grandma.”
“Oh, I see. Our family does have some business ties with the Blands. It’s only right to show up for her birthday…” Kylie started, but Lucinda jumped in, her eyes lighting up. “Dad, Mom, why don’t I go with Lydia? Or maybe we could all go?”
Cameron shook his head. “The Blands didn’t send us an invitation. It wouldn’t be proper for your mother and me to show up.” He glanced at Kylie. “How about Lucinda brings a gift and goes with Lydia?”

thank u!...
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...
