Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 672

Lydia had heard them talking about it out in the hallway, but she honestly hadn’t checked the forum. She didn’t even know what was going on.

“I haven’t seen anything yet,” she said.

Fiona’s eyes lit up. “Lydia, you have to check it! The votes are still going up.”

When Lydia said she didn’t know, Daisy looked at her like she was telling the world’s worst lie. Not know? Please.

“Lydia, you are in the campus queen contest on the school forum. That’s huge. How could you not know?” Daisy’s voice was all fake surprise, her hand flying to her mouth like she was in a drama.

Lydia couldn’t even bother to look impressed. “Is being in the contest supposed to be a big deal?”

Daisy was caught off guard. She never expected Lydia to talk back like that.

Wasn’t it a big deal? Campus queen. Out of thousands of students, to be picked as the prettiest girl on campus... wasn’t that important?

Daisy felt awkward, not sure what to say. So she forced a laugh and glanced at Fiona and Monica. “Look, Fiona, Monica, you two are getting all excited because Lydia’s in first place, but clearly she doesn’t even care.”

Basically, she was saying, Why are you two so worked up when she couldn’t care less?

Lydia met Daisy’s stare, her voice cool. “Don’t be so passive-aggressive. I said I didn’t know. That’s the truth.”

Daisy froze, not believing what she’d just heard.

Did Lydia just call her out for being passive-aggressive?

“What? Lydia, we’re classmates. We’re going to be living in the same dorm for the next three years. Are you really going to talk to me like that?” Daisy looked down at Lydia like she was a teacher scolding a misbehaving student.
