Ready to Rule The Real Heiress Strikes Back (Lydia and Connor) novel Chapter 1323
For a heartbeat, the entire ballroom fell silent. Every eye was fixed on Connor, down on one knee, as if time itself had stopped. The Jefferson family was powerful enough to shake the whole city with just a word. Connor, their enigmatic and unapproachable heir, had always been cold to every socialite who tried to win his favor. Yet here he was, in front of everyone, proposing to the blind heiress of the Norwood family. Yes, the two families had an old engagement, but with Connor’s status, breaking it would have been the easiest thing in the world.
“I can’t believe Connor Jefferson is actually going to marry a blind girl.”
“It has to be real love. Why else would he do this?”
“I heard Lydia’s pretty incredible herself. They’re honestly a perfect match.”
“For real? How come nobody told us that?”
“That’s because you’re clueless,” Juna jumped into the conversation, not bothering to hide her irritation. “Let me tell you, Connor should count himself lucky for marrying Lydia.”
Seriously, these people had no idea. If they knew how amazing Lydia was, they’d be shocked. How could anyone even doubt her? Absolutely ridiculous!
Lydia’s lashes trembled. She had grown used to the darkness after losing her sight, but she could still feel all those eyes on her, every single stare. Connor’s warm hand wrapped around hers, and somehow, that simple touch was enough to anchor her heart.
“I do.” Her voice was soft, barely louder than a whisper, but it carried through the room and settled over everyone.
The look on Connor’s face was pure, unfiltered joy, so overwhelming it seemed to light up the whole place. Carefully, he slipped the ring onto her finger, stood, and pulled her into his embrace.
Elliot shoved his hands into his pockets and let out a low whistle. “If you ever make her upset, I’m gonna show up at your door with backup.”
The four of them stood shoulder to shoulder, their presence so intense that everyone else in the room instinctively stepped back.
Connor didn’t even flinch. He squeezed Lydia’s hand, looked straight at her brothers, and spoke with absolute certainty. “I, Connor Jefferson, swear to protect her for as long as I live. If I ever break this promise, the Jefferson family shall lose everything, and I shall fall beyond redemption.”
His words rang out, strong and clear, shaking the Norwood family to the core and leaving every guest speechless. It was obvious now. Connor was hopelessly, completely in love.
Flashbulbs went off in a frenzy. The crowd erupted in cheers that felt like a tidal wave. Connor wrapped Lydia in his arms, lowered his head, and kissed her gently. It was a kiss filled with years of devotion and a vow that nothing and no one could ever break. For one perfect moment, the whole world seemed to pause and watch them breathe.

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...
