Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 603
Paige frowned, her brows knitting together. “No idea. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her before.” Judging by her figure and the way she carried herself, she probably looked pretty good.
Suddenly, Leila felt a wave of unease. What was some girl doing here at the Norwood house this late, and why was she with Elliot? That couldn’t be good.
Paige caught the look on Leila’s face and gently reassured her. “Come on, Leila. Let’s just ask Lucinda about it, okay?”
Leila nodded. “Yeah, alright.”
Lucinda was just about to head back to her room when the butler appeared, letting her know her friends had come to see her. Her heart skipped a beat. Her friends were here? Before she could even react, Paige and Leila walked in from outside. They greeted Mr. Norwood, Kylie, and Cameron with polite smiles.
Kylie beamed at them and motioned for them to sit down, offering tea and fruit. Paige shook her head. “That’s alright, Mrs. Norwood. We just came to find Lucinda. Hope we’re not interrupting anything?”
Kylie’s smile was warm and graceful. “Not at all. I love having you girls over. You should visit more often.”
Lucinda, worried that someone might say too much, quickly cut in before anyone else could speak. “Mom, I’m going out with Paige and Leila.”
Kylie nodded. “Alright, just be careful tonight, and don’t stay out too late.”
“We will,” Lucinda promised.
Once they stepped outside, Lucinda glanced toward the garden, making sure Lydia and Elliot were nowhere in sight. Relief flooded her. That was close. If they’d come a minute earlier and run into Lydia, how would she have explained it?
“Paige, Leila, why didn’t you let me know you were coming?” Lucinda asked, trying to sound casual.
Lucinda felt herself relax a little. At least they hadn’t recognized Lydia. But the question still left her rattled. If she told them the truth, that Lydia was the Norwoods’ real daughter, would Paige and Leila still want to be friends with her? What would people say if the news got out? How would she ever face anyone in the capital’s social circle?
No, she couldn’t let them find out. That was the only thing running through her mind.
“She’s actually…” Lucinda hesitated, searching for a believable answer.
Leila leaned forward, practically bouncing with impatience. “She’s actually what?”
The words just slipped out. “She’s actually my parents’ goddaughter.”

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...
