Ready to Rule The Real Heiress Strikes Back (Lydia and Connor) novel Chapter 54
Lydia just stared, completely at a loss. Did he really have nothing better to do than chase people down for street races?
“I’m busy.” She barely glanced back before slamming her foot on the gas, leaving the scene behind in a blur.
Tonight, she had things to do.
“Hey, you’re just gonna leave?” Chris yelled after her, but she was already gone, just a faint memory on the road. He muttered under his breath, “Other people would beg me for a race. She doesn’t even look at me.”
Lydia sped through the city, her mind focused. As she neared Grandview Estates, she pulled over and dialed Juna.
Juna picked up almost immediately, her excitement impossible to miss. “Boss, you’re done already? It’s not even dark yet.”
They had plans to hit the underground auction at eight. Rumor had it the auction was offering a rare herb. Golden Antler. Lydia needed it for a special medicine, something that could help Mrs. Smith’s leg recover.
“Yeah,” Lydia replied. “Starting today, we’re cutting all ties with Smith Corporation.”
Juna nearly squealed. “Lyds, finally! You’re done being their safety net. The Smiths think they’re such business geniuses. If you hadn’t been feeding them resources and cleaning up their messes all these years, they would’ve been out of business ages ago!”
Lydia’s eyes turned icy.
She didn’t want to talk about her past with the Smith family. As of today, whatever happened to them had absolutely nothing to do with her.
…
At the same time, Connor met up with Austin.
Austin was the picture of corporate confidence—tall, sharp-dressed, with a presence that made most people sit up a little straighter. He was surprised, honestly, that Connor wanted to see him.
“Aren’t you supposed to still be in the hospital?” Austin teased, giving Connor a once-over. He’d already heard how Connor managed to injure himself running off to avoid a matchmaking setup.
In Austin’s mind, Connor was basically immune to girls. Growing up, he’d never had any female friends. The only woman even remotely connected to him was his official fiancée, Miss Norwood, and they’d barely even met.
Now Connor was asking about a girl?
“Don’t tell me you’ve finally fallen for someone,” Austin said, still in shock.
Connor didn’t answer directly. “She never shows her face on your platform. I just want to know who she really is.”
Austin pulled out his phone and opened the app. “What’s her username?”
“Chief Lydia,” Connor replied without missing a beat.
Austin’s hand froze mid-scroll, and he stared at Connor. “Wait. What’s going on between you two?”

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...
