Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 170

Cameron beamed with pride. “That’s my girl. Lydia, you’ve got such a knack for business. I’m handing Greenward Power over to you. I know you’ll make it thrive.”

Lydia nodded, her voice steady. “Thanks for trusting me, Dad. I’ll give it my all.”

Around ten minutes later, Connor showed up at the police station, personally escorting Peter and his group in. Byron watched the scene and couldn’t help but think, being personally hauled in by a former general was probably the highlight of these guys’ pathetic lives.

Peter looked absolutely miserable. The moment he spotted Cameron and Kylie, he started wailing. “I swear I’m innocent. It was all Mr. Ragain’s idea. Please, I’m begging you, have some mercy.”

He really thought he’d covered his tracks, but he still ended up getting caught. Who exactly was Lydia, anyway? She’d only just arrived at the company and already turned everything upside down, and somehow Mr. and Mrs. Norwood were just letting her do whatever she wanted. They seriously underestimated her and way overestimated themselves.

Cameron let out a cold snort and turned away, slipping an arm around Kylie’s shoulders.These people weren’t worth getting upset over. Their health mattered more than wasting energy on greedy, selfish fools. Let the law deal with them.

“Mr. Norwood, Mrs. Norwood.” Connor approached, totally calm, and greeted them politely.

Both Cameron and Kylie felt a little guilty. They thought he’s asking Lydia out when he was actually helping them dealing with this mess.

“Connor, thank you. It’s late and you’re still helping us handle all this company drama.”

“No problem at all. I’m just glad I can help Lydia.”

Lydia turned to her parents. “Dad, Mom, you should head home and rest. I’ll wrap things up here and come back soon.”
