Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1280

Peyton nodded, her heart sinking. “Okay.”

The group sat together, figuring out how they could get into the Reynolds’ house to check on Alyssa and give her the injection. Peyton looked uneasy as she spoke up. “The problem is, my sister barely comes home these days. She’s always working or traveling for business. Some months, she only comes back once or twice. I…” Her words faded, and she fell quiet.

The realization hit her hard. Alyssa had started to drift away without anyone really noticing. Maybe she was staying away on purpose, just so the family wouldn’t pick up on anything strange. And when she was at the office or out of town, she could keep a close grip on the Reynolds family’s finances.

Juna frowned, thinking it through. “Do you guys have any family events coming up? Something she can’t skip?”

Suddenly, Peyton remembered. “Oh. My parents’ thirtieth wedding anniversary is coming up soon. They mentioned planning to get everyone together for a family dinner. I just don’t know if my sister will actually come home for it.”

Her parents, Adrian and Ivonne, had been together for thirty years and were still going strong. That kind of love was rare. It made sense her dad wanted everyone together to celebrate.

Juna’s eyes lit up. “You should go for it. Make it a big deal.”

Peyton looked confused. “A big deal?”

Juna nodded. “Yeah, if it’s just a family dinner, Alyssa can easily say she’s too busy with work. But if you throw a real party and invite other people, she’ll have to show up. She’s the Reynolds heir. For her reputation, she won’t be able to skip it. That gives us our chance.”

Peyton thought about it. The plan made sense, but she hesitated. “But my parents… They’re not the type to throw big parties. They don’t even celebrate their own birthdays.”

“It’s their thirtieth anniversary. That’s huge. You just need to talk to them. It’s not something that comes around again. I think you can convince them.”
