Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 501
Emily was one of them. She never expected to see Mr. Jefferson again, let alone like this. He was lying on a stretcher, badly wounded, and all she could think was that maybe this was her chance. Her chance to get close to him.
She pictured it all so clearly. She would save him in the operating room. He would recover in the hospital, and during those long days, something would spark between them. They’d fall in love, go through ups and downs together, and eventually walk down the aisle. Just as that fantasy started to take shape in her mind, Lydia showed up and ruined everything.
How could Emily possibly be happy now?
“Can you even handle this surgery?” Lydia’s voice was icy as she glanced at Emily.
Emily hesitated, but quickly lifted her chin. “I’m the surgical assistant. Dr. Louis is the lead. He knows what he’s doing. This isn’t your place right now, so you should leave.”
Lydia’s lips curled into a smirk. “If I walk out, are you really going to save him?”
Dr. Louis had barely managed to hold himself together before, but now Lydia’s blunt question made him flush with embarrassment and frustration. He snapped, “Young lady, we’re in the middle of a critical operation. If you keep interrupting, you’ll only make things worse. Are you prepared to take responsibility for that?”
Emily jumped in, her voice sharp. “Exactly. You’re just trying to make trouble and slow us down. Why are you really here?”
“You’re seriously getting in the way of this surgery. Leave now,” another doctor chimed in.
Dr. Louis actually felt relieved. He was out of his depth with this procedure, and if this girl’s interference delayed things, well, at least he wouldn’t get all the blame. Truth was, Mr. Jefferson had shown up out of nowhere tonight, and the hospital’s most skilled surgeons weren’t around. The responsibility had landed on him.
He was good at his job, or he wouldn’t have become a professor, but Connor’s wound was in such a difficult spot. One wrong move and the whole surgery could fail. How could he live with that?
Lydia’s voice cut through his thoughts. “Are you sure you’ll save him if I leave?”
Dr. Louis looked away, feeling exposed. “What are you getting at? You think you can save him?”
Lydia picked up the surgical instruments with the calm confidence of someone who knew exactly what she was doing.
Seeing that she was actually going to take over, Dr. Louis turned to Aiden. “Just so we’re clear, sir, she insisted on doing this. If anything goes wrong, it’s not on us.”
Emily hesitated, feeling torn. “But can she really do it?” She didn’t want Mr. Jefferson to die. That would destroy her dream completely.
Aiden didn’t hesitate. “I trust her.”
Inside, he was disgusted with Dr. Louis and the rest of the team. He couldn’t believe how useless they all were. For all the money they made, this was the best they could do?
Dr. Louis nodded stiffly. “Alright. If you trust her that much, let her do the surgery.”

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...
