Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 490
She’s Melody Mastro, so she’s probably got enough grace and confidence to let the formalities slide, right?
Grace jumped in right away. “Exactly, Mr. and Mrs. Norwood. Lucinda could just bow to her Grandmaster, that should be good enough, don’t you think?”
Kylie and Cameron exchanged a look, both frowning. Grace was talking way too much. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to help Lucinda. It was just that, right now, they honestly couldn’t.
Blake glanced at Grace, his eyes dark and annoyed.
Lydia lifted an eyebrow. “She said herself that if I played better, she’d kneel, serve me tea, and call me Grandmaster. Everyone here heard it. If she wants to go back on her word, that’s her problem. If she doesn’t serve me tea, I honestly don’t care.”
A ripple of whispers ran through the crowd.
“She made the bet and lost. Now she won’t go through with it? Sounds like she can’t handle losing.”
“And Melody Mastro really is her Grandmaster. Serving tea and bowing isn’t too much to ask.”
“I’d do a lot more if I had a Grandmaster like that. I’d crawl if I had to.”
“I thought she was an incredible pianist and gorgeous too, but I guess she’s not as genuine as I thought.”
“Yeah, she’s all looks and no substance.”
“Right. That piece she played, now that I think about it, was all style and no depth. Melody Mastro’s playing is on another level.”
The voices were low, but Lucinda still heard every word. Caspian did too, and his frown deepened.
She didn’t have the patience for this back and forth. She turned right to Lucinda, her tone blunt. “If you’re not going to honor the bet, just say so. What’s the point of standing around?”
Lucinda stared back at her, eyes red and watery, looking as if she was the one who’d been wronged. But she was the one who made the bet in the first place. Now that she’d lost, who was she putting on this act for?
Caspian’s heart twisted at the sight of her like this.
“Melody Mastro, do you really have to push her so hard?” he asked, his voice pleading.
Chris couldn’t take it anymore. “You’re from the Hansen family, aren’t you? Are you stupid or just not listening? She made the bet herself. Now she’s lost and has to follow through. No one i’s pushing her?”
He was furious. Just a little while ago, he’d actually thought Lucinda played pretty well. Now, he wanted to take it all back.

thank u!...
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...
