Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 739
“Her ruined reputation is all your doing. I told you to leave it alone after Lydia took first place, but you just wouldn't listen. You had to go and stir things up with her, didn't you?” Jackson squeezed his eyes shut and rubbed his forehead, his patience clearly gone.
“Jackson, we really didn't expect her to—”
“There’s a lot you’re clueless about.” Jackson cut him off, his voice icy and commanding, the weight of his authority making Benjamin feel small.
“But your sister and Rosie...”
“If they love drama so much, they can stay put for a while and think about what they’ve done. We’ll deal with the rest after my promotion.” Jackson sat at the edge of the sofa, covering his eyes with his hand. He didn’t need to say more. He was done talking.
His promotion was just around the corner and he knew everyone was watching him, waiting for a mistake. He’d warned them over and over not to make trouble, but no one ever listened.
Right then, his aide Harvey rushed in, looking tense. “Sir.”
Jackson opened his eyes, looking at him. “What is it?”
Harvey glanced at Benjamin, his voice low. “There was a call from headquarters. The police unit has a case... and it’s connected to you. They need your cooperation for the investigation.”
The anger in Jackson snapped. He grabbed the teacup and slammed it onto the table right in front of Benjamin, shattering it loudly. “This is what you’ve done. Useless!”
At the Norwood house, dinner was over. It was getting late and Connor didn’t linger. He stood to say goodbye, and Lydia walked him to the front door.
He held her hand, not wanting to let go. “You must be tired after those two weeks of training. Get some early rest tonight. Leave the Gibson situation to me.”
“This isn’t your fault. And I’m not as fragile as you think. You really don’t need to worry.”
“Lydia, you’re just so thoughtful. Rosie could never compare to you.”
“That’s right. Lydia is the best!” Kylie and Cameron kept praising Lydia, while Lucinda’s face grew darker by the second.
She’d also gotten first place in her military training. Why didn’t her parents praise her, too? Why was it always Lydia? It wasn’t fair at all.
Grace finally spoke up, unable to just watch. “It’s true, sir, madam. At the start of the semester, Lydia got first place at Capital Med School, and Lucinda got first place at Capital College. Having two top students in one family is something most people can only dream about.”

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...
