Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 669

"I heard you've been telling your classmates at Capital College that he's your fiancé?" Lydia asked, nodding toward Connor at her side.

Connor could tell Lydia was really upset this time, so he jumped in right away. "If you want, I can clear things up myself at Capital College."

Lucinda went pale at that. "That's not true! Ever since you came back, there's been nothing between me and Connor. You have to believe him. Please don't doubt how much he cares about you."

Juna almost burst out laughing. Anyone listening would think Lucinda and Connor had some dramatic past, when all she ever had was the title of 'fiancée.'

Connor looked just as fed up. His eyes were cold as he stared at Lucinda. "I barely even know you."

If anyone walked in on this scene, they'd probably think Connor was some heartless player who'd moved on to someone new. But the truth? Connor and Lucinda had barely even met. He could swear on his life that nothing ever happened between them. Lucinda was obviously trying to drag his name through the mud.

Lucinda didn't expect Connor to be so blunt, just to defend Lydia. What had Lydia done to make him so loyal?

"Yes, Lydia, Connor and I..." Lucinda started with a pitiful look, but Connor shot her a glare that made her swallow her words.

Lydia’s voice was calm, but there was a chill to it that made Lucinda shiver. "If there's really nothing between you, then I don't want to hear anyone call him your fiancé again."

Lucinda just nodded, biting back her anger. "I understand."
