“How about this? If I make it into the top three, you both have to do a live stream, washing your hair while doing a handstand.”
Lydia’s voice suddenly cut through the air right behind them.
Marilyn and Yara were so deep in their secret conversation that they nearly screamed. When did Lydia get here? Neither of them had seen her coming. She had scared them half to death.
“You… you…” Marilyn stuttered, struggling to find her words. It was painfully awkward to get caught talking about someone behind their back.
Yara looked just as uncomfortable, but her embarrassment faded quickly. She frowned at Lydia. “Weren’t you standing at the back? How did you end up here?”
Lydia shrugged, completely unfazed. “The professors asked me to come over. They mentioned there were Capital Med School students here. I just happened to hear you both talking about the competition. So, how about it? Want to make a bet?”
Marilyn and Yara’s faces went pale, then red, then back again. They looked like they’d swallowed something sour.
“What’s wrong? Getting cold feet?” Lydia teased when neither of them answered.
Marilyn clenched her jaw and shot Lydia a glare. “Why would I be scared? Getting into the top three isn’t like back at school. This place is packed with the best med students from all over the country.”
“I know,” Lydia replied.
Yara scoffed. “You really think you’ll make it into the top three?”
Lydia just smiled. “I came here to win. What about you two? Were you planning to just blend into the crowd?”
That did it. Marilyn and Yara looked like they’d bitten into lemons.
“Fine,” Yara said, folding her arms. “If you want to bet, what happens if you lose?”
Lydia thought for a second before nodding. “Same deal. If I lose, I’ll live stream myself washing my hair while doing a handstand.”
Yara smirked. “Deal.”
Marilyn added, “Let’s have Mr. Russo and Dr. Tomlinson as witnesses, just in case someone tries to back out later.”
Lydia was the dean’s favorite, after all. Without proper witnesses, what if she wouldn’t actually go through with it?

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...
