Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 640
As soon as Kylie asked that, Lucinda felt her heart jump straight into her throat.
Did her aunt and uncle already know Lydia was the real Norwood daughter? She remembered that strange call from Nathaniel a while back. Was it because of Lydia? If the Robinson family already knew the truth, would everyone in the Capital soon be gossiping that she was never the real daughter?
The more she thought about it, the more afraid she felt. Her face went pale, and she could barely keep her hands from shaking.
Lately, she’d been trying to talk herself into being okay with all of this. Even if the truth came out, she was still the daughter the Norwoods recognized. But was that enough? Was it really true?
“Erm, no. Aunt Mabel wasn’t doing well at all. Lydia was busy taking care of her, so there wasn’t a chance for any family introductions,” Elliot said.
Kylie just nodded. “Alright, then. When there’s a chance, I’ll tell them myself.”
Lucinda felt the tension leave her body all at once. She slumped into the sofa, completely drained. She hadn’t realized just how much she cared about being the Norwood family’s real daughter until now.
Lydia, on the other hand, had no idea what exactly had happened between the Norwoods and the Robinsons. But from what the Robinson family’s driver said earlier, it sounded like things were really tense between the two families.
“Elliot, are the Norwoods and the Robinsons really on such bad terms?”
She usually didn’t care about other people’s drama, but this was about her mom, so she had to ask.
Elliot let out a tired sigh. “Well, our grandpa is super traditional. He’s got a temper just like our uncle. Stubborn doesn’t even begin to cover it. The Robinsons are old school, military and political types. Our great-grandparents were war heroes. Back then, they were really strict about marriage. Grandpa wanted Mom to marry someone from a family on their level, but she went to college and fell for Dad, who had nothing.
“Grandpa and Uncle did everything to stop her, but Mom wouldn’t budge. In the end, they didn’t even show up to her wedding. I heard that when we were born, no one from the Robinson family came either, except Grandma and Aunt Mabel, who snuck over a couple of times.”
Connor looked at Lydia and said, “Lucky for me Mrs. Norwood married Mr. Norwood. So I got myself an amazing fiancée.”
Lydia rolled her eyes, smiling. “You’re such a charmer.”
Connor was definitely getting more and more shameless.
Elliot was surprised too. Connor really seemed different these days. He actually seemed, well, human.
Just as Elliot was thinking that, his phone started ringing. He checked the screen. It was a call from Leo.

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...
