Lucinda slept through the night, but when she woke up, she was burning with a fever. Cameron and Kylie wanted to take her to the hospital, but Lucinda refused, no matter what they said. Since Lydia had already left early that morning, there was nothing they could do but call a doctor to the house. He set up an IV drip for her in her room.
When Lydia came back, the whole house was focused on Lucinda. Caspian had called ahead to let Kylie know he was coming to check on Lucinda, so Kylie was waiting for him by the door.
“Caspian, hello,” Kylie greeted him.
“Aunt Kylie, how’s Lucinda doing?”
“Her fever just broke. Come on, I’ll take you upstairs.”
“Thanks,” Caspian said, following her. But as Kylie turned to lead the way, she caught sight of Lydia coming in.
She stopped and looked surprised. “Lydia? Weren’t you out with Connor today?”
Lydia just nodded. “I came back to grab something.”
“Do you need any help, sweetheart?”
“No, I’m just grabbing it from my room. I’ll be quick.”
“Alright then.”
Lydia headed upstairs first. Caspian was about to follow when Connor stepped inside from the front door. Kylie changed direction and went to greet him instead.
“Connor, Lydia—what are your plans for today?” she asked, smiling.
Connor had overheard Lydia’s conversation with her mom. Since Lydia hadn’t mentioned anything about Luke, he decided not to bring it up either. He thought for a second before answering. “We’re planning to go to Southeast Asia for a couple of days.”
Kylie’s eyes widened. “Really?”

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...
