By noon, everyone at Capital College was already buzzing about Lydia. Her story was everywhere, and it seemed like every conversation found its way back to her.
“The med school results are out. Guess who’s at the top?” someone called out, while the math students were still pretending to focus on their worksheets. In reality, half of them were scrolling through updates on the school forum.
A guy snorted and said, “Who else could it be in the medical department? It has to be Daisy, right?”
Another chimed in, “Of course it’s Daisy. She’s from a family of doctors and started learning medicine as a kid. She’s been part of the International Medical Association since forever. No newbie could ever beat her.”
Lucinda, still struggling with a challenging math problem, paused and raised an eyebrow. So Lydia lost to Daisy? That would be perfect. Lucinda couldn’t stand Lydia and her holier-than-thou attitude. If Daisy actually beat her today, she’d never let Lydia live it down. If only she wasn’t stuck with this impossible question, she’d go watch the drama unfold herself.
But before she could finish that thought, someone clicked their tongue and said, “Honestly, I thought Daisy would take first place too, but guess what? It’s Lydia. Lydia!”
Lucinda’s mind went blank for a second. Lydia? Again? What happened to Daisy, the so-called prodigy with her fancy background and international credentials?
Another student jumped in, “Right? Who would’ve guessed? Lydia’s a part of that cancer research team. And she actually went to the border, made an antidote for the virus, and basically saved everyone. She’s incredible.”
“No way! Are you talking about that virus outbreak at the border a few days ago?” someone gasped.
“Exactly. People were dying, the city was locked down, but Lydia came through with a cure and ended the crisis. The country’s about to give her an award.”
Lucinda just sat there, stunned. Lydia had been gone a few days ago… Did she really go to the border? How was that even possible? How could Lydia be so capable?
“Wow. So who is this Lydia, anyway?” someone asked, almost in disbelief.

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...
