Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 463

Of course Lydia and her team knew exactly what the Country D crew was up to. They weren’t fooled for a second.

Chris couldn’t take his eyes off Lydia. He looked at her like he was about to start a speech, all fired up, but when he opened his mouth, nothing came out. He just stood there, struggling to find the right words.

“Lydia, you… you…”

She cut him off, cool and steady. “Let’s focus on the race first.”

“Yeah, right!” Chris nodded, snapping back to attention.

“Jay and I are just here for this round. We’ll help you get a head start, but after that, you’re on your own.” Lydia’s voice was firm, leaving no room for argument.

They were only stepping in to help Chris and the others through a rough patch. Racing the whole event in their place would make the competition pointless. If Lydia and Jay did everything, they might as well just hand out the trophies now.

“But what about their condition?” Weston’s voice trembled as he glanced over at their two other teammates, worry all over his face.

“Relax. They’ve already had their meds. I’ll give them another treatment at lunch. They’ll be good to go this afternoon.”

Chris wanted nothing more than to race with Lydia, but he knew. If Lydia and Jay kept stepping in every time things got tough, there was no way he or the others would ever get better.
