Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 590

Lydia’s words may have been simple, but they landed like a bomb. Connor’s face lit up with surprise and relief. Lydia had finally admitted who he was and made it official in front of everyone.

Jenson and Milana, on the other hand, looked like they’d just bitten into a lemon.

“Lydia! You’re not even really part of the Smith family. What makes you think you can inherit anything? You are dreaming!”

Lydia didn’t rush her reply. “Grandma’s will is pretty clear. I’m the heir. And actually, after I left the Smith family, she updated the will again. Guess what? I’m still the heir.”

Jenson and Milana went from shocked to furious in seconds.

“Lydia! I always knew you were up to something. You only acted nice to Grandma because you wanted her money!”

She shot them a look. “And what about you two? You’re here for the inheritance too, aren’t you? Too bad for you. Grandma chose me, not you.”

Lydia’s expression said it all. She knew she had the upper hand, and there was nothing they could do. Jenson was practically vibrating with anger, staring at her like he couldn’t believe his ears.

“Lydia! You’re Miss L. You have more money than you can ever spend. Why are you trying to take the Smith Corporation too? That doesn’t belong to you!”

Lydia just smiled, a hint of pride in her eyes. “Who complains about having too much money? If Grandma wants me to have it, why would I say no?”

Milana was so angry she looked like she might pass out.

“If you’re so eager to be a good son, why don’t you stay here and take care of Grandma? Oh, and don’t forget to pay today’s medical bills.”

She turned to Connor. “Let’s go. We’ll take shifts. One day each. We’ll come back tomorrow.”

Connor nodded. “Alright.”

As Lydia started walking away with Connor, Milana panicked.

“Lydia! We don’t have the money for the hospital bills right now!”
