Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1260
“Okay, I’ll ask him about it when we get back and see what’s going on.”
Lydia ate a little on the plane, but she was so tired, she drifted right back to sleep.
Next thing she knew, she was waking up in a big, soft bed. The room was completely dark and so quiet she could hear her own breathing. She sat up, reaching out to find the switch on the bedside lamp. Just as her finger brushed the edge, the bedroom door opened quietly.
“Lydia, you’re awake? Do you need anything?” Connor’s voice was soft as he came over and took her hand.
Lydia arched an eyebrow. “Why is it so dark? Why aren’t the lights on?”
The air changed. Suddenly, it felt heavy, almost frozen.
Connor’s eyes went wide. He stared at her, speechless, just taking in her beautiful eyes. He couldn’t get a single word out.
“Connor?” Lydia called, her voice uncertain. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
He seemed to snap out of it at once, but now he was panicking. He grabbed her hand and pressed it to his face. The rough stubble on his cheek brushed her palm, and when he spoke, his voice shook. “Lydia… you…”
It hurt to talk. Every word felt like it scraped his throat raw.
It was eight in the morning. Outside, the sun was shining. The room was actually filled with light.
Lydia’s fingers traced the lines between his brows, then the tears at the corner of his eyes. She went quiet, letting the silence stretch between them. Suddenly, she lifted her right hand and placed it on her left wrist, checking her pulse.
She stayed like that for a long time, then let her hand fall. A sad little smile tugged at her lips.
So this was it.
Connor pulled her into his arms, holding her so tightly it was like he couldn’t bear to let her go.
“Lydia, how could this happen? Why?” His voice was shaking. He sounded like he was on the verge of tears.

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...
