Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 368

Connor reached over and gently ruffled her hair. “You keep the money from selling the medicine. And feel free to use any herbs on Mount Gemspire you like.”

She shot him a look. “Wow, look at you, Mr. Generous.”

Connor’s smile widened. “Think of it as me paying your medical bills in advance. Come on, eat up.”

They finished eating, and by then it was already four in the morning.

“Go get some real sleep. You can deal with everything else when you wake up.”

“Yeah, okay.”

Lydia was running on fumes after two sleepless nights. All she wanted now was to crash and let her brain recover.

“Did you get the room ready?” she asked.

Damien nodded. “It’s all set. I’ll take you and Miss Lydia there now.”

“Alright.”

Damien led them to a suite with the best view on the whole mountain. The place was clearly meant for Connor.

Inside, it was as lavish and cozy as a presidential suite in a fancy hotel.

“You both get some good rest,” Damien said, giving Connor a look that Lydia couldn’t quite read.

She raised an eyebrow. “Only one room?”

Damien hesitated. “This is the only one that’s really suitable for you both.”

Connor chimed in. “You can have this room. I’ll find somewhere else.”

Lydia glanced around, taking in the luxury. “Let’s just share.”

Connor gave her a surprised look. Lydia shrugged. “You haven’t slept well these past couple of days either. Let’s both get a proper night’s sleep. We’ve got to go herb picking tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

Damien took the hint and left without another word.

The room was quiet, the soft lights making everything feel warm and dreamy.

Lydia looked over at Connor. “Do you want to shower first, or should I?”
