Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 629

“Yeah.” Lydia nodded and looked at him. “Do you want me to take care of those rumors online?”

Connor reached over, brushing his fingers through her dark hair, his voice soft and full of affection. “You work hard enough already. I’ll have someone else deal with it.”

Lydia was the infamous hacker L, but Connor didn’t want her to push herself. If she could rest, he wanted her to.

By noon, the scandal that had been blowing up all over the internet that morning had vanished completely. No matter how hard people searched, it was just gone, like it had never even happened. Some stubborn users tried posting videos of Connor’s rescue, but nothing got through the review.

Impressive, right? Most people assumed it was the government stepping in. They had no idea it was Connor who had quietly wiped the slate clean.

Connor had already bought movie tickets for the two of them for that afternoon, the showtime set for two thirty.

They’d just finished lunch and were about to head out when Lydia got a call from Elliot.

“Lydia, Mom and Dad told me you and Connor are going to see my new movie?”

“Yeah, we’ve both been swamped lately and didn’t get a chance to see it. We finally have some time today, so we’re going.”

“Which theater are you at? I want to go with you.”

Connor, listening in, froze. He finally had a chance to go on an actual movie date with Lydia, and now Elliot wanted to tag along and play third wheel?

“We’re at Oscar Cinema on Peace Road, the two thirty show.”

“Great, send me your seat numbers. I want to sit next to you.”

“You might not be able to get a ticket now.” Connor had bought theirs the day before. It was probably sold out by now.
