Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 224
Dr. Hady nodded. “Alright.”
Lydia slipped off her sterile gown and stepped out of the operating room.
The second she walked out, she spotted Milana peeking in anxiously. As soon as Milana saw her, she froze, then rushed over. “Lydia, where’s Luke? Is he okay? Why isn’t he out yet?”
Lydia kept her tone calm. “He’s still inside for observation.”
“Observation? I thought the surgery went really well. Why does he have to stay in there? Are you guys hiding something from us?”
Lydia frowned. “You have two options.”
Milana’s eyes went wide and her heart started pounding. Did something bad happen after all?
“One, go get some sleep in his room. Two, wait out here until he comes out.”
With that, Lydia walked away, not bothering to say anything else.
“Lydia!” Milana called after her, sounding desperate.
Lydia stopped, turned back, and said, “Oh, and don’t forget, you still owe a thousand apologies on your knees.”
Once she was out of the surgical area, Lydia finally checked her phone. There were missed calls and unread messages from her parents, Connor, Grandpa Samuel, Chris, even Juna.
She let out a soft sigh.
Cameron and Kylie knew she had a surgery tonight. They’d been texting every hour or two, asking if she was done yet. She wasn’t sure if they’d gone to bed, so she didn’t want to call and risk waking them. Instead, she just texted to let them know she was out of surgery so they wouldn’t worry.
Barely two seconds after she sent the message, Kylie’s call came through.
“Mom, why are you still awake?”
“Lydia, honey, you must be so tired. Look at the time. You just got out of surgery.”
For a second, Lydia felt her heart skip. She lowered her phone, unable to hide the small smile forming.
Connor stepped closer, his dark eyes full of concern. “Are you tired?”
He handed her a pink thermos.
“Have some soup first.”
Lydia hadn’t eaten at all before surgery. She’d spent seven hours on her feet, working flat out, not even stopping for water. She was used to this kind of exhaustion and hunger by now.
But this time, having someone waiting for her, ready with food the moment she was done, made her feel like sunlight was pouring straight into her heart.
“Thank you,” she said softly, taking the thermos.
Connor looked at the tiredness on her face and felt his heart ache for her. His voice grew even gentler. “It’s the perfect temperature. Have some first. There’s more food waiting in the car.”

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...
