Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1321
Arthur’s face went cold. He realized the truth. Just moments ago, Lucinda had honestly tried to kill Lydia. It was hard to believe the girl they’d taken care of since childhood had turned so vicious. Jealousy could really twist a person into someone you barely recognized.
Lydia didn’t return to the Norwood estate until late at night. Kylie was waiting in the living room, pacing with worry. The second she heard someone at the door, she rushed out. When she saw Lydia’s bruised cheek and the blood on her collar, her eyes filled with tears.
“My poor girl, what happened?” Kylie cried. She helped Lydia to the sofa, her voice trembling. “Let me take a look. Is it serious?”
Cameron’s heart tightened at the sight. He quickly fetched the first aid kit. Kylie’s hands shook as she spread ointment over Lydia’s swollen cheek, barely holding back her own sobs. With each gentle touch, she whispered angry words.
“Lucinda… How could she turn out so heartless? We treated her like family. She doesn’t know a thing about gratitude. She’s just… unforgivable.”
Lydia squeezed her mother’s hand and tried to reassure her. “I’m okay. It’s all over now.”
Somewhere else, Lucinda was being led away, a hollow shell of her former self. The once proud heiress was now locked inside a cold, unfamiliar interrogation room. She curled up in the corner, haunted by the image of Grace falling, her mind playing it over and over. Her world had shattered in an instant. All that pride, jealousy, and resentment had melted into bottomless regret and despair.
Why? Why did it have to end up like this? She was supposed to be the real Norwood daughter. How did everything go so wrong?
Two days later, news came in from Country T. With the police closing in, Night Eagle had nowhere left to run. In the end, he took his own life. The notorious leader, who’d tried to seize the Jefferson family’s power and committed countless crimes, finally paid the price.
Meanwhile, Connor and Garrett managed to rescue Mr. Norwood and everyone else who’d been replaced by clones. They all started their journey back home. Mr. Norwood was worn out from everything he’d endured, but his spirit was strong. When he finally set foot on familiar ground, looking at the Norwood estate and the people waiting for him at the gate, his eyes filled with tears. He never thought he’d see home again.
“Dad!”
“Grandpa!”

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...
