Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1263

Connor couldn’t help feeling embarrassed, silently scolding himself for not going into medicine. If he had, maybe he could actually help her right now. Lydia must have felt his frustration, because she turned toward him and said, “You too. I need you with me, to be my eyes for a while.”

No matter what, the issue with the clones had to come first. Hearing her words, Connor squeezed her hand. “Only if you don’t mind having me around.”

Kevin nodded. “Alright. You two take care of yourselves.”

Lydia’s plan was to settle things in the Capital, then head over to Rock Bay. For now, the only people left in the Capital were her grandfather and the Bland family. She wondered how Krista was doing. Maybe it was best to deal with her own family’s problems before anything else.

Before they headed back to the Norwood estate, Lydia told Connor everything that had happened with the clones. He was floored. Something so huge had been going on, and he’d had no clue. Lydia had been carrying all of this by herself.

“So the next person who needs the injection is Mr. Norwood?” he asked.

Lydia nodded. “Yeah.”

She shared her plan with Blake too, and once he heard she was home from abroad, he said he’d be back that night.

Cameron and Kylie had been waiting anxiously for Lydia to return. Lydia didn’t hide the truth about her blindness. Everyone, herself included, had to face it head-on. Maybe her sight could be restored someday, but that wouldn’t happen right away, and the process would probably be long and difficult. She needed to get used to how things were now.

Cameron and Kylie were in total shock. To them, this was worse than any disaster. “Lydia… no… how could this be?” Kylie clapped a hand over her mouth, trying not to burst into tears. Cameron’s face was grim. They had been so happy for Lydia, celebrating her big win abroad, even planning a party for her. No one expected news like this to come crashing down at the same time.
