Ready to Rule The Real Heiress Strikes Back (Lydia and Connor) novel Chapter 87
If Lydia hadn’t done that full-body acupuncture on Grandpa a couple days ago, Lucinda’s tonic would have sent him straight to the afterlife.
Cameron and Kylie both glanced at Lucinda, who was sitting on the floor, crying her eyes out.
“I’m sorry, Mom, Dad. I just wanted you both to be healthier. I never thought anything would go wrong. You two had the tonic and were fine, but Grandpa…”
She didn’t finish, but the meaning was obvious. Grandpa’s sudden reaction wasn’t entirely her fault. After all, Cameron and Kylie had both taken the same tonic with no issues.
Kylie knew Lucinda was a good kid with a soft heart. She quickly walked over and gently helped her up. “Lucinda, your sister isn’t blaming you. She’s just saying your grandfather’s health is complicated. We need to be careful about what he eats or drinks.”
Lucinda sniffled and nodded, looking pitiful. “I understand, Mom, Dad. I promise, I won’t randomly make tonics for you anymore.”
“Lucinda, your dad and I are totally fine. Don’t blame yourself,” Kylie said, her voice gentle. She really didn’t want Lucinda to feel guilty. The girl meant well, even if things went sideways.
Suddenly, Cameron let out a sharp gasp.
Kylie spun around and saw sweat beading on his forehead. His face had gone pale, and he was holding one side of his jaw, clearly in pain.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” Her heart skipped a beat, and she rushed to steady him.
Cameron clutched his cheek, struggling to speak. “My… tooth. It just started hurting, all of a sudden. It’s awful.”
Lydia stepped forward, took his wrist, and checked his pulse. “You overdid it with the tonics. It’s making you inflamed. I’ll give you both some medicine. Take it for a couple days and you’ll feel better.”
Kylie looked at Lydia, her nerves showing. “Lydia, do I have to take it too?”
Pride and relief flashed across Cameron and Kylie’s faces as they listened to Dr. Simpson praise their daughter.
“We never thought she’d be so skilled at such a young age. Thank you and your team, too,” Cameron said, his voice warm.
Dr. Simpson waved him off. “We didn’t do much. The credit goes to her. You really should thank her properly. And one more thing—those herbs, no matter how valuable, shouldn’t be thrown together in one pot like that. It’s dangerous. It could have been fatal.”
He shook his head, still in disbelief. Only the richest families would casually toss such rare herbs into a stew. If they’d used them properly, those ingredients could have helped so many people. What a waste.
Cameron and Kylie felt another jolt of fear run through them. They nodded quickly, full of gratitude.
After Mr. Norwood was settled in the ICU, Kylie suddenly felt lightheaded. She leaned against the wall, unsteady on her feet.

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...
