Ready to Rule The Real Heiress Strikes Back (Lydia and Connor) novel Chapter 159
Connor’s words landed like a thunderclap. Byron and his team were stunned, but even Lydia couldn’t believe what she’d just heard.
His fiancée?
When did she ever agree to that?
Byron looked like he’d seen a ghost. If he remembered right, Mr. Jefferson’s fiancée was supposed to be Lucinda Norwood. So who was this girl standing in front of them? How did she suddenly become Mr. Jefferson’s fiancée?
He had to admit, though, that this girl was stunning. Honestly, she was way prettier than Lucinda. She had this cool, untouchable vibe that made her seem almost regal. Standing next to Mr. Jefferson, they looked like they belonged together, as if fate had paired them up.
“Mr. Jefferson’s fiancée is so good at this,” Byron said, still in shock but genuinely impressed.
She just took down twenty-two grown men. Just how strong was she?
Lydia gave a small smile. Her voice was light and matter-of-fact. “Those guys were just really bad at fighting.”
Byron blinked at her, thrown off by how familiar her voice sounded. It reminded him of someone—a legendary hacker named L who had helped his team crack some of their toughest cases. He’d always admired her. Was it just a coincidence?
Meanwhile, Parker and Rose, both in handcuffs, could hardly breathe. Thanks to Kylie, they knew exactly who Connor was. They’d even seen him once or twice, though he’d never bothered to notice them.
Everyone knew Connor was engaged to Lucinda. Rose had thought she was seeing things when she spotted Connor here. But it really was him.
Why was he with Lydia? And why would he call her his fiancée?
How could that even be possible?
Lydia was just a nobody from the countryside. Even if Kylie took her in as a goddaughter, that didn’t mean she could marry someone like Connor.
Lydia hesitated. She really didn’t want to trouble him.
Connor saw right through her. “Your business is my business.”
Lydia could only nod. “Thanks for helping out.”
Connor ruffled her hair right in front of everyone. “You are welcome.”
After Connor left, Lydia headed into the station.
In the interrogation room, Rose’s voice echoed, thick with tears. “It was all a misunderstanding. We just had a work disagreement. We only wanted to talk to her. We’d never hurt her, I swear, officer. I’m telling you the truth.”
“But all twenty-two suspects have already testified,” the officer replied. “They said you paid them to hurt her. They were just following orders.”

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...
