Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 717

Patricia’s words felt like a weight lifting off Daisy’s chest. Dealing with Lydia was already stressful enough. The last thing she needed was to end up on Rosie's bad side, too.

The Gibson family had their hands in both politics and business, and Rosie’s aunt, Mabel, basically ran the Robinson family. The Robinsons were political heavy hitters. The Rivers family knew better than to mess with them.

Monica and Fiona exchanged knowing grins.

“Patricia, weren’t you just bragging that first place was yours? You even made a bet with us. What, are you only confident when you’re talking to us?” Monica couldn’t help herself. She just couldn’t stand Patricia’s fake attitude.

Rosie shot Patricia and Daisy a look of pure disdain, then glanced over at Lydia’s group with a smug smile. “You don’t win first place just by flapping your gums.”

Maisie, right next to Rosie, laughed. “Seriously. Everyone wants to win, but it’s not as easy as it sounds.”

Rosie looked them up and down. “You might want to stop running your mouths. Or you’ll only embarrass yourselves later.”

Daisy and Patricia’s faces fell. Lydia had already put them in their place more than once.

Lydia’s eyes were icy as she stared at Rosie and Maisie. Her voice was cool and confident. “We’ll find out who wins in seven days.”

She turned to Monica and Fiona. “You two good to go?”

They nodded right away. “Yep, ready.”

Lydia walked straight past Rosie, not even pausing. She didn’t say a word, but her confidence made Rosie narrow her eyes in irritation.

Lydia really didn’t care what anyone thought.

Once Lydia’s group started moving, Daisy hurried her team along. “We’ve still got a long way to go. Let’s get going.”

Maisie scoffed. “Rosie, do you think they actually have a shot at first place?”

Rosie’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Let them dream. That’s all it’ll ever be.”
