Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 687

“What did Daisy do at school this time? She got herself kicked out of the International Medical Association is, and now I’m out too. If the Rivers family ends up blacklisted, we’re done for.” Wally’s mind spun. He couldn’t process what was happening.

“Dad, you… you must be mistaken. How could you get kicked out of the International Medical Association?” He clapped a hand over his mouth as soon as the words escaped, but it was too late. Everyone heard that.

Ms. Powell and Ronald stared in shock. Mr. Rivers always had serious pull with the International Medical Association. That’s the only reason the Rivers family had so much influence in the Capital. But now he’d been kicked out? Was this Kevin’s doing? Kevin was a legend in the association. And now, everyone was even more curious about Lydia. Who was she, to have Kevin on her side?

Daisy just gaped, eyes wide and stunned. “Dad, how could Grandpa get kicked out? Are you sure you heard him right?”

Hadley sounded just as rattled. “Honey, this has to be a mistake!”

Mr. Rivers heard them over the phone and nearly lost it. “Figure out who Daisy offended and tell her to apologize. Now! Make things right. If our family’s position in the Capital takes a hit, none of us will be safe.” With that, he slammed the phone down.

Wally just stood there, dazed. Daisy grabbed his arm, voice trembling. “Dad, what’s going on? How could Grandpa—”

“Quiet!” Wally barked.

Daisy had never seen him like this. Her eyes filled with tears. “Dad, you’re yelling at me?”

Wally turned to Lydia, forcing a smile. “Hey, I’m really sorry. We’re at fault for not raising Daisy right. She’s spoiled, and now she’d offended you. I’ll have her apologize right now.”

Lydia just looked at him, unimpressed. “An apology now is too late.”
