Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 984

Ghost didn’t hesitate. He marched over and kicked the guy so hard he landed flat on his face. “Idiot! The Commander is here to help us. What are you freaking out for?”

The guy bit back a yelp, scrambled up, and stammered, “Ghost, it’s… it’s Commander Ansel!”

Ghost’s eyes went wide. “What?”

Commander Ansel.

Three years ago, the man had joined forces with outsiders to wipe out his own people and took down the biggest syndicate in Southeast Asia, the Terra Syndicate. The fallout was massive. Since then, Ansel had kept a low profile, barely showing his face, probably out of fear of revenge.

And now, tonight, he showed up here?

He might have kept quiet lately, but Ansel was still the most powerful Commander in this country. Ghost was still trying to wrap his head around it when the guy blurted out, voice shaking, “The Commander’s not alone. He brought someone else. I think it’s—”

“Who? Say it!” Ghost barked.

“It’s… it’s Connor Jefferson!”

Ghost froze.

Connor Jefferson.

Just his name made every gang in Southeast Asia grind their teeth. If they could, they’d tear him apart and drink his blood. Nobody hated anyone more than they hated Connor.

“Connor? He’s got the nerve to show up here?” Ghost’s voice cracked with fury.

He turned that anger straight on Lydia, fixing her with a hard stare. “You working for Connor?”

Lydia just raised an eyebrow. “What, are you scared?”
