Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 843

If he really couldn’t come up with the money, it would have been so embarrassing. Lucinda would definitely look down on him.

“Just wait, the card’s on its way.”

As soon as Caspian said this, Lucinda lifted her chin, her whole posture changing. She hadn’t expected him to actually be able to pull together that much cash. Even as the daughter of the richest man around, used to a life of luxury, she’d never had that much money in her hands all at once.

Caspian wasn’t completely without his good points. At the very least, he knew how to boost her ego and keep her from getting mortified in front of Lydia and Connor.

It wasn’t long before Breanna rushed over, almost out of breath from hurrying. She paused when she saw Lucinda. Connor and Lydia still had their hats and masks on, so Breanna didn’t recognize Connor right away.

“Caspian! Over here!”

She pulled Caspian aside and lowered her voice. “What’s going on?”

Caspian had no choice but to give her the short version. Breanna was honestly starting to believe her brother had completely lost his mind.

“Are you crazy? Lucinda is Connor’s fiancée. How could you get mixed up with her?”

Breanna knew all about his crush on Lucinda. She’d told him a million times to let it go, but he just wouldn’t listen. Now she was truly furious.

“Connor’s moved on. She’s not marrying into the Jefferson family anymore. Isn’t this fate giving me a chance?” Caspian tried to argue.

“Have you lost your mind? I don’t support you being with her, and you’re not buying any of this stuff today.”
