Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 817
It would have felt pretty awkward otherwise.
Lydia just smiled. “No worries, there’s another car.”
“Huh? Another car?”
Lydia nodded. “Yep.”
Once they stepped out of the school gates and rounded the corner, Fiona and Monica spotted a line of cars waiting by the curb. What really caught their attention was the car at the front—a Rolls-Royce. And not just any Rolls-Royce. If they were seeing right, it was a super rare, limited edition. Only three of them existed in the whole world.
Aiden rolled down his window and called out to the driver of the Rolls-Royce. “Go pick up Luke.”
“Yes, sir.”
Fiona and Monica stared, totally stunned. Were all these people here because of Lydia’s boyfriend? Who exactly was he? They both wanted to ask, but neither dared to say a word.
They all headed out to pick up Luke. Just as they were on their way, Lydia’s phone rang. It was Juna.
“Lydia, want to hit up a bar tonight? It’s been ages. I’m losing my mind at school, I need to check out some cute guys. What do you think, you free?”
The air in the car instantly turned icy. Fiona honestly felt like the temperature had just dropped.
Sure enough, Connor spoke up, his voice cold and sharp. “She’s not free.”
He sounded like he was about to grind his teeth into dust.
On the other end, Juna’s heart skipped a beat. She slapped a hand over her mouth to keep from squealing out loud.
“Oh, Connor’s there? Haha, I was just joking. Babe, if you’re busy, don’t worry about it.”
Juna was about to hang up, but Lydia spoke up. “If you’re bored, come have dinner with us.”
Juna paused for only a second before she agreed. “Okay!”
The girls stared at him, totally shocked.
“You… you’re Luke? Isn’t your sister Sandy?” Monica blurted out, then clapped her hand over her mouth, mortified.
The whole table fell quiet. Monica wanted to disappear. Why did she have to say that? She was just so surprised that Lydia was so nice to Sandy’s brother, especially since Sandy was always picking on her.
Luke’s expression froze for a split second, but then he smiled. “Sandy is my biological sister, but in my heart, I only have one real sister.”
He looked at Lydia.
“I’m so sorry, Luke. That was out of line,” Monica whispered, wishing she could crawl under the table.
“It’s all right.”
Juna noticed the mood had gotten heavy, so she jumped in with a laugh. “Okay, enough about Sandy. Let me tell you, Lucinda is all anyone can talk about at Capital College right now. Everyone’s acting like she’s some heiress—beautiful, smart, kind, always helping people. Please. She’s just a fake rich girl who doesn’t know how to keep her head down. She’s so loud and phony every single day, I can’t stand it!”

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...
