Kneel Down to Win Back the Heiress Queen novel Chapter 218

Jordan scratched the back of his head sheepishly. “So, Nancy, when will you have time to come to practice?”

“Not for a while, I’m afraid. I have to be with Grandma for her surgery.”

“That’s fine. I’ll wait for you.”

They chatted a bit longer before parting ways.

The next day, Nancy went to the hospital, where Raine and the rest of the Lidell family members were already present.

Everyone more or less knew why Martha had gathered them there. There was a ripple of expectation in their eyes.

Martha looked in pretty good spirits. When she saw Nancy, she beckoned her over to sit at her

bedside. Then, she turned to face everyone else.

“The reason I gathered you all here today is probably no secret to you. I’m getting old now, and I’m not as strong as I used to be. It’s time to hand the group over to the younger generation.”

“Mom, we get it. Just name the successor. We’ll do our best to support them,” Edward said.

Raine’s eyes shone with anticipation. It was the day she had been waiting for.

Once she inherited Lidell Group, she was going to put everyone in the family in their place.

Martha’s gaze swept over the room before coming to rest on Nancy. “I announce that the new successor of Lidell Group is… Nancy.”

Raine’s excited expression stiffened in an instant.

It was Nancy?

Why?

Was Martha out of her mind?

The rest of the family looked just as shocked.

“Mom, why?” Edward asked in disbelief. “Only Raine can treat your illness. What would happen to

you if you gave

the group to Nancy?”

you if you gave the group to Nancy?”

“My life or death isn’t important. The survival of the group is what matters most,” she said gravely.

Nancy?

Raine clenched her fists. She wondered if Martha was implying that handing the company over to

her would mean that the group was doomed.

Did Martha really look down on her that much?

Her gaze turned icy, but a mocking smile tugged at her lips. “Well, since this is Grandma’s decision, we’ll respect it. I just hope Grandma enjoys the time she has left since Dr. Gales is leaving for

overseas training tomorrow. He won’t be back for at least six months.”

“Regina! Dr. Gales is leaving. There’s no one else who can perform the surgery on you. Please, beg Raine to make him stay. What are we going to do if you die?” Regina paled.

Raine walked toward the door as she said, “Grandma’s made up her mind. I doubt she’ll change it just because of me.”

She stepped into the hallway, silently counting in her head.
