Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 846

Actually, Lydia’s outfit was nothing out of the ordinary. Sandy was just running her mouth, saying whatever would sting most.

“If your eyes are acting up, go see an eye doctor. If it’s your brain, maybe try a neurologist. Stop acting like you’ve lost your mind.”

“You…” Sandy’s face was twisted with anger.

Lydia didn’t even bother to respond. She just walked away.

Sandy wouldn’t have bundled herself up like that for no reason. If she was hiding something, it was pretty clear she didn’t want anyone to notice.

As she watched Lydia’s bold stride out of the room, Sandy clenched her fists so tightly her knuckles went white.

No one had any idea what she’d been through these past two days. It felt worse than death. But she swore to herself, Frank, Lydia, Luke, anyone who’d ever hurt her, she would make sure they paid for it—twice as much.

Lydia pushed open the door to her dorm, and Fiona and Monica immediately looked up. The moment they saw her, both of them grabbed gift boxes from their desks and handed them to her.

“Lydia, these are for you.”

Lydia raised an eyebrow. “What’s this? Why are you giving me gifts?”

Fiona scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed. “Well, you’ve helped us out so much since the semester started. You even treated us to meals. We don’t really have anything fancy, but we wanted to thank you, so we picked out a little something.”

Monica chimed in, just as shy. “Yeah, Lydia. It’s nothing expensive or anything. We just hope you don’t mind.”

Lydia caught the awkwardness between them and wondered if her real identity was putting pressure on them.

“You two still see me as a friend, right?” she asked.

Fiona and Monica answered together, “Of course!”

“Then just forget about my background, okay? Just be like before.”
