Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1006

Sandy felt like there was no hope left for her.

Her adoptive father had abused her, treated her like she was nothing more than a tool. Her real parents were even worse. To them, she was just a spare part, dragged back home only so they could take her kidney and save their precious son.

And then there was Soren. There was Greg. They’d all said they cared about her, promised they loved her, but in the end, what did any of them do except hurt her?

What had she done to deserve any of this? Why did everyone around her seem determined to break her?

Hot, angry tears slid silently down her cheeks.

“I just want back what was mine. How is that wrong?” Sandy’s voice trembled as she glared at Lydia, her eyes burning with resentment and frustration.

They both grew up in the same countryside. So why did Lydia always get to act like she was so much better? Was it just because she got to be Miracle Hands’ apprentice?

Just thinking about Kevin made Sandy’s bitterness twist even deeper. After the Capital College academic competition, she’d called him three times. She just wanted to visit, to beg for a chance. He shot her down every time, saying he’d never take on another student. If he wasn’t Miracle Hands, she never would’ve lowered herself like that. Old bastard!

Lydia looked at her like she was crazy.

“You agreed to donate your kidney to Luke. You got what you wanted in exchange. Now you use these dirty tricks to take it back? Please, Sandy. You’re just making excuses. Why not just admit it? You wanted Luke dead.”

Those words hit Sandy right in the gut.

“I’m just taking back what’s rightfully mine! Why would I want him dead? He just didn’t care about his own life. It got nothing to do with me. Why should I have to save him? What makes him so special? Just because he’s the Smith family’s son?” Sandy practically screamed.

But she would never admit it, not in front of Lydia, that there was a dark little secret buried deep inside her heart. She really did want Luke to die.

She hated Jenson, hated Milana, hated Lydia, Mrs. Smith, Frank, Soren... but the one she hated most of all was Luke.
