Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 727

Dennis’s brows pulled together, his voice cold. “I know you finished the challenge, but we’ve had reports that you cheated, using some special tricks to win. So, I’m making it official. Your results for this round are canceled.”

Monica and Fiona froze, totally blindsided. Jules’s face turned stone cold.

“That’s impossible. We made it through on our own. How could you accuse us of cheating?” Monica shot back, her anger flaring.

Dennis let out a sharp laugh. “If it was just one group complaining, maybe I’d let it go. But two groups reported you. After discussing it, we’re voiding your results.”

Lydia just smiled, lifting her eyebrow. “So if our results don’t count, who gets the top spot?”

“That’s none of your concern. You broke the rules during training and now you’ll be punished.” Dennis stared her down, not giving an inch.

Lydia nodded calmly. “Fine, then. Which two groups reported us?”

Dennis narrowed his eyes.

Lydia kept going. “Let me guess. Daisy’s group and Rosie’s group, right?”

Dennis’s reply was icy. “Glad you get the picture.”

Lydia’s smile went cold. “Get the picture? They’re the real cheaters and you want us to take the fall? I mean, seriously, who’s protecting you from behind the scenes?”

Her words hit hard. The shift in Dennis and his crew was instant.

“Lydia, is it? You better have some proof if you’re accusing us of corruption. This is serious.”

“And what proof do you have that we cheated? If you can’t produce any, then you’re just abusing your authority, covering for the real cheaters.”
