Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1310

Lucinda had always felt sure of herself. But after Grace yelled at her, all that confidence started to slip away.

“Grace, I don’t think… I mean, that can’t be true, right?”

Before she ever got involved with them, Lucinda had done her homework. She’d scoured the dark web for information, and everything she found said they were the real deal, the most powerful group out there. There was no way they’d have such a reputation if they weren’t legit.

Grace could barely catch her breath. “Lucinda, seriously, think about it. Is Lydia really worth that much money? It’s so obvious they’re just trying to scam you.”

Every word made Grace’s chest feel tighter. That billion wasn’t just a number. It was everything she’d worked for, saved up her entire life. And now, her own daughter had blown it all in one shot. She felt so close to pass out right then and there.

Lucinda shook her head. “Grace, don’t be so negative. Let me try reaching out to them again.”

Grace said, “Send me the account you transferred the money to. Maybe I can get it back.”

The thought of getting the money back made Lucinda hesitate. She’d finally found a way to get rid of Lydia, and now she might lose her chance.

Grace, reading her like a book, said, “I know you want Lydia gone. Don’t worry, I’ll handle her for you.”

Honestly, Lucinda didn’t trust Grace to actually pull it off. Grace had promised before, over and over, that she’d take care of Lydia, but she’d never managed to do it. All she’d done was drag Lucinda down with her.

“Lucinda, listen to me. I’m the only one in this world who truly cares about you. I heard Lydia’s blind now. Dealing with her won’t be hard.”

Lucinda hesitated for a long time, then finally nodded. “Fine. I’ll send you the account details.”
