Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 662

Monica and Fiona introduced themselves to Daisy right away. Monica was from the Capital too, her family was pretty well-off, but nothing compared to the Rivers family’s old money and connections. Fiona came from a wealthy family in a coastal city. Her relatives had wanted her to stay local for college, but she had her heart set on Capital Med School. It really was true, the Capital drew in all the brightest people. On her first day, she was already sharing a room with the famous Daisy.

Daisy glanced out toward the balcony and asked, “What about her? What’s her name? Where’s she from?”

Monica shook her head. “We just got here ourselves. Haven’t even had a chance to say hi.”

Fiona nodded. “Yeah, but she’s really gorgeous. Honestly, the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen.”

Monica chimed in, “Totally. I think she’s even prettier than a movie star.”

Daisy didn’t like that at all. She’d always been the prettiest and the most talented girl everyone talked about, ever since she was a kid. Now, hearing Monica and Fiona gush about someone else right in front of her made her feel more than a little annoyed. She’d only caught a glimpse of Lydia’s side profile earlier, so she was determined to see for herself how pretty this girl really was. Could she really be prettier than her?

Lydia didn’t seem to care what they were saying. She stepped out onto the balcony and answered her phone.

Connor’s deep, smooth voice came through. “You get to school okay?”

Lydia nodded. “Yeah.”

“Did you get everything unpacked?”

“I’m working on it.”

“I’ll pick you up for dinner tonight.”

Lydia raised her eyebrows. “Dinner? I have to go to the lab tonight.”

She’d already promised to meet Grandpa Kevin at the lab at eight.

Connor sounded disappointed. “You wouldn’t let me drive you to school, and now you don’t even have time for dinner?”

“Maybe another day.”

Connor let out a sigh. “Alright. I’m flying overseas tomorrow morning. I’ll be gone for a week.”

Lydia paused for a second. “Don’t forget to use your medicine.”

“Aren’t those the richest guy in the country and his wife with her?”

“Wait, really? Is she their daughter, Lucinda?”

“Has to be. I heard she’s been engaged to Connor Jefferson since they were little.”

“She’s living the dream. Born with everything.”

Cameron and Kylie made no effort to hide their identities, just like Lucinda wanted. She actually hoped everyone would know she was the daughter of the richest man in the country. Why have her parents hide behind hats or masks? As everyone whispered about her, she lifted her chin a little higher, proud of who she was.

“Lucinda! Mr. and Mrs. Norwood, you’re here!”

Paige and Leila, who had been at the school for a while, finally spotted her and hurried over.

Lucinda greeted them with a smile. “Paige, Leila, did you finish registering already?”
