Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 292
The old professor was all smiles. “Lydia is this year’s top scorer, not just in the city, but for the whole country. She got a perfect score. That’s why we’re all here. We just need to make sure this is where she lives.”
His words picked up speed, worry creeping in. If Lydia didn’t live here, had they been sent on a wild goose chase while the other schools got to her first?
Lucinda felt her mind go blank, like she’d just been struck by lightning.
A perfect score? Lydia? How was that even possible? Lydia was always at the bottom of the class. For three years, she barely scraped by. Everyone at school knew her for causing trouble and getting into fights. Her reputation was a mess. How could someone like her get a perfect score?
“Professor, are you sure you’re not mistaken?” Lucinda asked, her voice shaking. She stared at the professor, desperate for him to say she’d heard wrong.
He noticed how pale she looked. Thinking about her own grades and how confident she’d been earlier, he realized she must have gotten the wrong idea.
“Lucinda, your grades are excellent,” he said, his voice gentle, “but there was only one perfect score in the whole country this year, and that was Lydia.”
Lucinda’s knees went weak and she stumbled back a step.
Cameron and Kylie were stunned into silence.
Wait, what?
Lydia got a perfect score? And it’s the only one in the whole country?
“Oh my god, honey, did you hear that?” Kylie gasped, turning to Cameron. “Did he really say Lydia got a perfect score?”
Yesterday, when Lydia and Lucinda had made that bet, they just thought it was some harmless fun between sisters. No one actually believed Lydia would pull this off.
The professor’s eyes lit up when he heard Lydia’s name. “Mrs. Norwood, does that mean Lydia lives here?”
The old professor realized the others were getting ahead of him, so he quickly spoke up. “Mrs. Norwood, where is Lydia? Could we meet with her directly?”
Suddenly, everyone remembered Lydia wasn’t even in the room yet.
Lucinda stood there, frozen. She felt numb, like the world’s biggest fool. The embarrassment was overwhelming. She wanted to disappear.
Why? Why did the top score have to go to Lydia?
Cameron and Kylie, grinning with pride, waved everyone inside.
“Please, professors, come in. Lydia’s right inside.”
The university reps nodded eagerly, barely able to hide their excitement. They couldn’t wait to meet the girl who had scored the highest in the nation.

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...
