Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 797

“So you really got Fred in trouble? Please, he’s useless anyway. Always talking big about his stepdad in the Capital like that actually means something, but look at him now.”

Nolan walked right up to Luke, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and held it out. “Come on, have one.”

Luke shook his head, frowning. “I don’t smoke.”

Nolan just smirked. “You’re turning down my offer? Seriously, Luke? Do you really think your family is still some big deal from that tiny hometown of yours?”

“Nolan, enough.” Luke knew moving into the dorms meant he’d have to deal with stuff like this, but he’d never been one to back down from a fight.

Nolan shot him a look. “My dad teaches at this school, you know. Making me mad isn’t going to end well for you. Just take the cigarette and we’ll call it even, roommates and all.”

The real reason Nolan wanted Luke to break the rules with them was so Luke wouldn’t have anything to report them for later. Their dorm supervisor already had it out for his dad and was always looking for a chance to catch them. That’s why they freaked out earlier when Lydia and Luke walked in.

Luke looked annoyed and pushed Nolan’s hand away. “I said no. Health reasons.”

He used to smoke, sure. But not anymore. He was done with that.

Nolan glanced at the others. “Guess Luke’s just shy because he’s new. Maybe we should help him out. It’d be a shame to waste a good smoke.”

Walter, who was sitting next to Nolan, jumped in right away. “Yeah, man. Good stuff should be shared.”

Nolan grinned wider. “Walter, Gary, hold him. I already lit this cigarette. He’s going to smoke it, like it or not.”

“I saw everything. Don’t lie to me. Nolan, call your parents right now. You’re moving out. I won’t let you ruin things for everyone else here.”

Nolan had only wanted to live in the dorms to get away from his parents and have some freedom, plus he could sleep in a bit. But now Mr. Bush wanted him kicked out? No way.

He glared at Luke. If Luke hadn’t shown up, none of this would be happening.

“Mr. Bush, come on, please don’t call our parents this time. We swear, we won’t do it again.”

Mr. Bush didn’t even budge. “You already had your warning. There are no more second chances. And you just tried to gang up on a new student. That’s bullying, plain and simple. Your parents are getting called, end of story.”

Nolan couldn’t believe how stubborn Mr. Bush was being. He snapped. “So what if you call my dad? What, you think you can actually do something? Just because of this sickly loser, Luke? You’re just a dorm supervisor. You think you can get rid of me? Who do you think you are?”
