Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 283
Back when Grace was around, she’d always be there to clean up after Lucinda, picking up everything she left behind. Now, with Grace stuck in the hospital because of her injury, Lucinda’s bedroom floor was a complete disaster.
As she stared at the mess, someone knocked on the door. Garrett’s voice followed. “Lucinda? Are you asleep?”
Lucinda’s anger disappeared in an instant, replaced by panic. She glanced at the chaos on the floor and frantically began scooping things up. There was just so much. For a second, she honestly wished she could wave a wand and make it all vanish.
“Lucinda?” Garrett called again, knocking a little louder. He didn’t get an answer, so he checked his watch. Just past nine. No way she’d be asleep already.
Lucinda rushed to tidy up, her breathing heavy as she regretted losing her temper earlier. She tried to smooth out her wrinkled clothes and ran her fingers through her hair, then took a deep breath. Trying to look calm, she forced a small smile and opened the door just a crack. “Sorry, Garrett, I was in the bathroom. Did I make you wait?”
Garrett didn’t seem suspicious at all. He smiled at her. “We ate a ton tonight. Want to walk with me in the garden? Help our stomachs settle?”
Lucinda hesitated for a moment, then her face lit up. “Yeah, sure, Garrett.”
They strolled side by side through the garden, just like they always used to. It was summer, but the night air was cool, and the garden was so lush and green that it almost felt like they were walking by a river.
Lucinda couldn’t help but slip into old memories.
“Garrett , do you remember when I was little and there was a swing set out here? No matter the season, even if it was raining or snowing, you’d wrap me up in layers and bring me outside so I could swing.”
“Lucinda, here, take this.”
Garrett held out a card.
Lucinda stopped in her tracks, surprised. “Garrett, what’s this…” Her heart fluttered. Was he giving her fifty million too?
“There’s twenty million on this card. I was in a rush coming back and didn’t have time to get you a real gift. Take it and buy yourself whatever you want.”

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...
