Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1227

Lydia was seriously impossible. Kylie shot Lucinda a sharp look, clearly annoyed. “Lucinda, Lydia’s exhausted. Don’t make things harder for her.”

Lucinda stared back in disbelief. Was she hearing this right? She was the problem here?

“Mom, I wasn’t—”

Cameron cut in before she could finish. “Alright, that’s enough. Let her eat in peace.”

Lucinda felt like she might actually explode. Were they really just going to side with Lydia like that, not even pretending to care about her feelings?

Lydia ignored the whole thing, sitting at the table, calmly working her way through breakfast.

Kylie turned to Lydia, her voice gentle. “So, I heard your flight to Country D is this afternoon. Connor’s already there, right? Did he say if he’s picking you up?”

Lydia paused, then answered in her usual even tone. “My flight got canceled. I need to go to Nina’s birthday party tonight. I’ll leave after that.”

Lucinda was in the living room, but she’d been listening the whole time. She couldn’t help herself. “Nina’s birthday? I haven’t heard anything about that.” In their circle, whenever one of the girls had a birthday, it was always a huge deal, all over social media. Nina’s birthday should’ve been headline news by now.

Lydia glanced up, her eyes icy. “It’s none of your business.”

Lucinda froze, her face burning. She looked at Kylie and Cameron, desperate for backup, but they were already back to fussing over Lydia’s plans, acting like Lucinda wasn’t even there.

Kylie nodded. “That works out fine. I’ll have the driver take you to the party tonight, then you can go straight to the airport after. Don’t stay out too late.”

Cameron chimed in, “Yeah, Lydia, make sure you take care of yourself.”

Lydia nodded. “I will.”
