Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 516

Lydia tapped her fingers on the table, lost in thought. She was pretty sure Lucinda had asked Grandpa Wayne to call Grandpa Samuel. “I think I know,” she said, shooting Mikey a teasing look.

Mikey’s nerves tightened. “Who?”

Chris leaned in, eyes bright with curiosity. “Come on, Lydia, spill it. Who does Grandpa Wayne want to set Mikey up with? If she’s decent, maybe Mikey should at least meet her.”

Mikey rolled his eyes. “If you want to meet her so badly, go ahead. I’m not interested in dating anyone right now.”

Seriously, he could barely keep up with work. Where would he find the time for a relationship?

Chris puffed out his chest. “Well, I’m not dating anyone until you and Connor get married.”

Being single was great. Why make things complicated? Of course, Connor was an exception. With Lydia, they were just meant to be.

Lydia raised her eyebrows. “You really want to know?”

Chris nodded so hard it was almost funny. “Yes, I really, really want to know!”

Mikey stayed silent, not sure if he even wanted to hear the answer.

“Lucinda,” Lydia said, cutting straight to it.

For a second, everyone just stared at her. The room went quiet.

Then Chris doubled over, laughing. “You’ve got to be kidding. Lucinda? For my brother? That’s hilarious.”

Lucinda was the definition of high-maintenance. No one could handle her. She used to be engaged to Connor, but he’d fought tooth and nail to get out of it. If Lydia hadn’t come back, Connor would have ended things himself.

Now Grandpa Wayne wanted to set Lucinda up with Mikey? Seriously, what was he thinking? He must really spoil her.
