Ready to Rule The Real Heiress Strikes Back (Lydia and Connor) novel Chapter 1179

Just wait. Once they found something, Lydia’s perfect image would crumble.

Marilyn couldn’t stand Lydia’s arrogant attitude, either. She leaned in to comfort Yara. “Don’t let her get to you. She’s just desperate for attention. Mr. Norwood would never go for her.”

Marilyn and Yara had spent enough time together that Marilyn knew all about Yara’s crush on Garrett. Yara glared at Lydia’s back as she walked away, her voice icy. “Mr. Norwood would never be interested in her. She’s nothing but a whore.”

Right then, just as Lydia was about to step into the advanced lab building, she suddenly turned around and looked straight at them. “You call me desperate, but what about you? If I were you, I’d keep a low profile and try not to remind everyone you’re a illegitimate child.”

Then she turned her gaze to Yara. “You call me a whore? Should I take that as you being a little jealous of how I look?”

For a second, Marilyn and Yara were so mad they couldn’t even speak. Lydia was usually quiet, but when she clapped back, she didn’t hold back at all.

“You… you…” Marilyn choked, pointing a shaking finger at Lydia.

“I’m just telling it like it is. Take it or leave it.” Lydia didn’t wait for a response. She turned and walked into the lab building. The glass doors slid open after a quick face scan, and she walked in with all the cool confidence in the world.

Marilyn was so angry she nearly lost it. Nothing bothered her more than anyone bringing up her being an illegitimate child. Hardly anyone at school even knew about it. But yesterday, Lydia had shown up uninvited at her grandmother’s birthday party and found out everything. That bitch!

Yara smiled, loving every word. Marilyn was right. Garrett belonged to her, and only her. “Thank you, too, Marilyn.”

Even though Erik had told Marilyn over and over to get along with Lydia at school, Marilyn just couldn’t stand her. The idea of being friends with Lydia was ridiculous.

It only took Lydia three days to develop the antidote for Krista. To help her recover faster, Lydia collected a bunch of rare medicines. That night, she planned to give Krista another acupuncture treatment, hoping to get the last of the toxins out of her system.

Her two loyal shadows, Juna and Lincoln, followed her everywhere. On the way, Lydia’s phone rang. It was Blake. “Lydia, we’re good to go tonight.”
