Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 997
Just then, one of Connor’s guys walked in and said a little girl they’d rescued from the cruise ship wanted to meet the people who saved her. Connor looked up. “How old is she? Does she remember her family’s number?”
It wasn’t the first time Connor and Lydia had saved families like this. With Ansel’s help, all the people who’d been trafficked or tricked were finally on their way home.
“She’s maybe eight,” the man said. “She wants to see her rescuer before she goes back.”
Connor was surprised. He hadn’t expected a little girl to be so determined to say thank you.
Lydia’s eyes widened as if something clicked in her mind. “Bring her in, now.”
A few minutes later, a little girl with tangled hair and dirt smudged across her cheeks shuffled into the room. Lydia took one look at her and recognized her right away. This was the girl who’d always been at Luke’s side. The one he’d gone out of his way to protect.
Coco glanced nervously at Lydia lying on the hospital bed. She chewed her lip and whispered, “Miss… did you save us?”
Connor looked so serious that the girl flinched as soon as she saw him. Garrett was there too, and even though his face wasn’t as cold, he seemed weighed down by worry. So Coco focused on Lydia, the only one who looked gentle right now.
Lydia paused, watching her. “It wasn’t just me. Is there something you want to ask us?”
Coco’s eyes shimmered with tears. She twisted her hands together, looking lost. Lydia waited, giving her time. Finally, after a long moment, Coco said, “Do you… know Luke? Did he… is he gone?”
Her voice broke at the end, and her eyes turned red. She’d heard people talking last night during the rescue, whispering that a lot of people had died. She couldn’t find Luke anywhere. Fear twisted inside her. What if she never saw him again?

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...
