Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 505
Blake got back to the villa while Cameron, Kylie, and Lucinda were waiting for him. As soon as he walked in, they hurried over to him.
“Blake, how’s Connor? Is he okay?” Kylie asked, her voice full of worry.
Ever since Lydia and Blake had rushed out, Kylie and Cameron had been on edge. Blake had texted them later, letting them know that Connor had been attacked and seriously hurt.
“He’s out of surgery now and in the ICU. With Lydia there, I think he’ll pull through,” Blake said.
Lucinda’s heart twisted with worry. Connor was the one she’d secretly loved for as long as she could remember. Feelings like that didn’t just disappear overnight. She wanted to go see him, but she was afraid her family would overthink it, so she kept quiet.
She tried to change the subject. “Did they find out who was behind it?”
Blake shook his head. “Not yet.”
Still, he couldn’t shake the feeling that whoever was behind this wasn’t just a run-of-the-mill hitman. With Connor’s skills, he should’ve been able to protect himself.
Lucinda hesitated, then asked, “Will Lydia be able to fly home with us tomorrow?”
Blake shook his head again. “I don’t think so. Why don’t you all head back first, and I’ll stay behind to wait for Lydia and Connor?”
Lucinda didn’t really want to leave, but she couldn’t say that out loud. “I’ll wait and see what Mom and Dad decide. If they go back, I’ll go with them.”
Kylie and Cameron exchanged a look, then turned to Blake. “Blake, maybe we should wait another day. None of us will feel right leaving now.”
Blake nodded. “Alright.”
Lucinda didn’t go back to the hotel. She stayed at the villa with Kylie and Cameron.
Grace sat up in bed, heart racing.
[How is he? Is it serious? Do they know who did it?]
Lucinda replied, [I don’t know.]
Grace felt a wave of irritation. Lucinda was being even more secretive than usual. She blamed Blake, convinced he’d filled her daughter’s head with distrust. If it weren’t for him, Lucinda wouldn’t be shutting her out like this. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She needed to find a way to make Lucinda see who truly cared about her.
Still fuming, Grace gave up on sleeping. She decided to step out onto the balcony for some air. But before she could even set foot outside, a cold voice drifted over from the next balcony.
“Was tonight your doing?”
Grace froze. That was Lydia’s voice. Wasn’t Lydia supposed to be at the hospital with Connor? Why was she here instead? Grace held her breath and listened, heart pounding.

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...
