Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 528
The phone was on speaker, so everyone heard the offer. Milana’s heart sank. She was so angry she almost passed out right then.
“You… you people… this is too much.”
Jenson was furious too, gripping his phone so hard his knuckles turned white. This so-called famous pawnshop in the Capital was a total joke!
“How is this not the same as daylight robbery?” he snapped.
Juna’s voice drifted through the phone, cool and careless. “I’m just running a business. You want to pawn it, fine. If not, you’re free to leave. No one is robbing you.”
Milana had already thought forty million was low, but now they were dropping it to twenty. She felt like she’d been pushed off a cliff.
“There’s nothing left to say. Jenson, let’s go. There’s no way this is the only pawnshop in a city this big,” Milana said, her voice trembling with anger.
Juna sounded bored. “Think it through. If you walk out now and come back later, the offer will be ten million. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. That’s it, I’m hanging up.”
The line went dead. Milana and Jenson had already turned to leave, but now they just stood there, frozen.
Sandy rushed over, lowering her voice. “Dad, Mom, pawnshops are all kind of shady, right? If this one’s dropping the price, the others might too.”
Jenson and Milana just stared at the door. Should they leave, or should they stay? They couldn’t decide.
Milana’s temper snapped. She stormed in and shouted, “Where are the cleaners? The lobby is the face of the company. How can nobody be taking care of it?”
Only one receptionist was left, a girl fresh out of college named Wendy. She hurried over, looking nervous. “Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith, there’s just one janitor left, and she called in sick today.”
Milana glared at her. “She’s not here, so you couldn’t clean up yourself? This is your responsibility, isn’t it?”
Wendy’s face turned red. She’d spent her whole morning calming down reporters and business partners, running around serving tea and water, barely catching her breath. Now, after all that, Jenson and Milana finally showed up and started yelling at her instead of even noticing her efforts.
Her heart sank. If she wasn’t so grateful that the company gave her a shot as a new grad, she would have quit a long time ago.

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...
