Elliot looked totally baffled. “Mom, LYLX is a huge international brand. All of this is new, limited-edition stuff. I went through so much trouble to snag it.” He paused, glancing over at Lydia. “You don’t like this brand?”
If that was true, he was seriously in trouble. He’d picked out tons of LYLX bags, shoes, custom dresses, and jewelry. Most of it had even been designed by Miss L herself.
Lydia smiled and nodded. “I like it.”
Elliot finally relaxed, a hint of relief on his face as he turned to Kylie. “See, Mom? She likes it.”
Kylie let out a sigh, half amused, half helpless. “Didn’t Blake tell you? Your sister is Miss L. She’s the founder of LYLX. Everything you just gave her, she designed herself.”
Elliot stared at her, completely stunned. His sister was the founder of LYLX? How had he never heard that before? Why had no one mentioned it?
“Lydia, your brother’s completely clueless. He’ll get you something else tomorrow.”
Elliot was at a loss. “Mom, these are really nice. He doesn’t have to get me anything else,” Lydia said with a laugh.
Kylie shook her head. “No way. He has to try again tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow, I’ll definitely bring new gifts,” Elliot added, nodding seriously.
Just then, Lucinda came running out, her heart full of excitement. But the scene she walked into made her pause. It felt like she was looking at her old self. Back then, whenever her brothers came home, all the presents were for her. Now, it was Lydia getting all that attention.
“Elliot, you’re back,” Lucinda called out, quickly putting on a cheerful face as she hurried over.
Elliot spotted her and, just like always, reached over to ruffle her hair. “Lucinda, come see what I brought you this time.”
Kylie made a show of rolling her eyes. “As long as your sisters get gifts, that’s enough for me. I don’t need anything.”
Elliot laughed and slipped his arm around Kylie’s shoulders. “You are mad at me. I’ll definitely get you something tomorrow.”
“You silly boy, I’m not mad.”
Elliot called for the staff to move all the gifts from the car into Lydia’s room. Grace stood by, watching as bag after bag, box after box, was carried in for Lydia. Lucinda only got about a third as much. Grace was fuming. She pulled out her phone and texted Lucinda: [Lucinda, Elliot gave Lydia so much. Why did you only get that tiny bit?]
Lucinda was already feeling left out, and reading Grace’s message only made her feel worse.
Grace sent another message: [Your mother only reminds Elliot to bring gifts for Lydia. Why doesn’t she remind him to treat you both the same?]

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...
