Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 968
Kylie was kneeling next to Lucinda, her voice shaky with panic as she called her name. Lydia stepped forward, steady and calm.
“I’ll handle this.”
The second Kylie saw Lydia, her panic faded a little. Relief washed over her.
Lucinda had swallowed a lot of water. Lydia moved quickly, her actions smooth and confident. Within moments, Lucinda started choking, then coughed up a mouthful of water. Slowly, she opened her eyes, dazed but awake.
“Lydia… why did you save me? I don’t want to drag everyone down anymore.”
Lucinda’s words were barely a whisper. She looked so fragile, her voice so soft you could miss it if you weren’t close.
Lydia didn’t answer. Instead, she stood up and turned to Kylie and Cameron. “She’s okay for now. If you’re worried, you can take her to the hospital just to be safe.”
Lucinda was so pale, barely able to speak. Cameron nodded right away. “Alright. Let’s get her checked out.”
Making sure Lucinda was safe at the hospital was the only thing that would help them breathe easier.
Connor watched from the side, bored with Lucinda’s act. Some things, he thought, Kylie and Cameron needed to figure out on their own. If he and Lydia called her out now, accusing her of faking for sympathy, it would only cause more problems.
Lydia went with Kylie and Cameron as they rushed Lucinda to the hospital. The tests came back clear, and only then did everyone finally relax.
By the time they made it back to the Norwood house, the sky was already turning light. No one had told Mr. Norwood about Lucinda’s incident. They didn’t want to worry him any more than he already was, especially since Lydia’s kidnapping still hadn’t been resolved. The old man had been waiting up, anxious for any sign of them.
When he saw Kylie supporting a ghost-pale Lucinda through the front door, he shot up from his chair. “Lucinda, what happened? Are you alright?”
Lucinda’s eyes were swollen, her cheeks streaked with tears. She could barely get the words out. “I’m sorry, Grandpa… I didn’t mean to make you worry.”

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...
