Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 444
“Blake is with your sister too,” Kylie said, grinning. “And some people from Greenward Power are here. Connor only got in last night.”
Lucinda pressed her lips together and dug her nails into her palm. Was everyone suddenly obsessed with Lydia? She was just a fashion designer. What was so impressive about that? Did making clothes make her as refined as a concert pianist? Lucinda was one of the Capital’s most famous socialites, talented in everything from music to painting. What did Lydia have to show for herself?
Honestly, Lydia probably just grew up with nothing, so she had to hustle to survive. The Smith family never cared about her. If she hadn’t learned how to make her own money, would she have just starved on the streets? Thinking about it that way, Lucinda felt a little better. When the international piano competition came around, she’d show Lydia what real talent looked like. Just wait!
The restaurant at the Eiffel Tower was always in high demand, with reservations booked out way in advance. After all, it was one of the hottest spots in Paris, drawing huge crowds every year. People loved the unique setting and the killer views, so getting a table was never easy.
Before Lydia and Connor even arrived, the manager, Nicolas, was doing the rounds in the VIP window section, apologizing to every guest in person.
“So sorry, sir, madam,” he said, “but there’s been a last-minute private booking. Tonight’s dinner is on the house. We’d appreciate it if you could finish up and head out once you’re done.”
Most of the guests here weren’t hurting for cash. They came for the view and the atmosphere, expecting to enjoy their evening without interruption. Now they were being hurried out, and it definitely stung.
“Is this how you treat your customers? Do we look like we can’t pay for our meals?”
“Yeah, no one said anything about a private event when we booked.”
Nicolas kept apologizing, his voice genuinely regretful. “Every guest here is important to us, and we’re truly sorry for this unexpected situation. The party who booked tonight is offering each of you a hundred thousand dollars as compensation. Would you be willing to accept that?”
The couple he spoke to just stared at him, speechless.
So when Lydia, Connor, and Chris finally arrived at the base of the Eiffel Tower, they saw crowds of happy couples, families with kids, and people from all over the world pouring out of the tower, all grinning from ear to ear.
They could hear their excited conversations.
“Can you believe our luck tonight? Free dinner and a hundred thousand dollars each!”
“I know, right? At first, I thought it was some kind of scam, but they transferred the money to us right there. We saw it hit our account instantly. Our family of five got half a million, just like that!”
“We were here for a group dinner, seven people. Each of us got a hundred thousand too.”

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...
