Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 117
“Henry?”
Lydia narrowed her eyes, her expression sharp and dangerous. She’d seen Henry on the security footage before. Disgusting didn’t even begin to cover it. He was always messing around in the office, totally shameless.
Honestly, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. Parker, Rose, and Henry treated Greenward Power like their personal piggy bank. They did whatever they wanted, never caring about rules or consequences.
“Yes, Ms. Norwood. He already threatened me. If I don’t do what he wants, he said he’ll kick me out of the company…” Jenny’s voice trembled with fear and helplessness.
Lydia gave a short, cold laugh. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of him. You just focus on your work.”
“Ms. Norwood, thank you. Really, thank you so much.”
“And by the way, I’ve seen your designs. You’re really talented. After lunch, come to my office, and I’ll go through your portfolio with you. I can help you polish a few things.”
“Really? Ms. Norwood, I… I’ll come by at lunchtime!” Jenny’s voice was suddenly bright and hopeful.
To Jenny, Lydia felt like this beam of light cutting through the gloom. For the first time, she felt seen. All of a sudden, Henry’s threats didn’t seem so scary anymore.
“Alright.”
As soon as Lydia hung up, someone knocked at her office door. Henry’s voice drifted in, light and mocking. “Ms. Norwood? Are you in there?”
Lydia just smirked, her lips curling in a cold smile. She didn’t bother to answer.
Henry called out three more times. When no one replied, he sounded annoyed. “She’s not here? That doesn’t make sense. I’ve been watching. She’s definitely inside.”
“Ms. Norwood, you don’t have to be so formal with me. Call me Henry. Whatever you like.”
“Mr. Ragain, it’s work hours. Watch what you say.”
Henry strolled over to her desk, not even trying to hide how sleazy he was being. “Ms. Norwood, ever had a boyfriend?”
Lydia’s gaze turned even colder.
Henry didn’t get the hint. He stared at her, totally mesmerized by her striking face, and started running his mouth. “Someone as gorgeous as you must have a ton of guys chasing after you. Your skin looks amazing too. Let me guess, you’ve had plenty of older guys spoiling you, right?”
He was way out of line. As he spoke, he even reached out, trying to touch Lydia’s face, completely ignoring all boundaries.

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...
