Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 444 Bianca Is His Granddaughter

Meanwhile, Old Mr. Norman asked Queenie to bring Bianca's design.

Old Mr. Norman and Bianca discussed the details of the design excitedly.

Even though there was a big age gap between them, there were no obstacles to their conversation.

Old Mr. Norman might be a retired politician, but he was well-read in a variety of subjects. He even knew certain

technical jargon that inexperienced architects would never have heard of. That had made Bianca impressed.

Old Mr. Norman was very impressed with Bianca too.

The girl might seem young, but she did not only have pretty looks. He was satisfied with her unique design senses,

her modern way of thinking, and her modest attitude.

Old Mr. Norman shot a glance at her granddaughter Leia who dressed like a princess, then turned away,

dissatisfied.

His granddaughter might look kind and considerate, and his wife and his children were fond of her, but he felt that

her ladylike attitude was pretentious.

Moreover, his granddaughter was fully immersed in the chaotic entertainment industry and did not want to leave it.

Old Mr. Norman had always been unhappy about that.

Leia felt uneasy.

Her grandfather was talking technical jargon with Bianca. She did not know where to cut in.

When her grandfather looked at her with disappointment in his gaze, she felt as though her heart was being sliced

into two by a steel ruler, and she had no way of releasing the anger and frustration in her heart.

She was very sure that her grandfather did not know that Bianca was his true granddaughter, i

They had only met twice at most, but they were already as close as family.

Was this because they subconsciously knew that they were related?

Leia's gaze turned cold when she thought of that. She would not let Bianca take away her everything!

Old Mr. Norman was engrossed in his conversation with Bianca. He did not notice the change in Leia's expression.

He pointed at the patch of vegetable garden on the design and said, "Now that the mansion will be built in the

pastoral style, what do you think we should plant here, Bea?"

Without him realizing it, Old Mr. Norman had started calling Bianca "Bea" instead of "Ms. Rayne."

Bianca thought for a while and said, "You should eat more vegetables with Vitamin C. Carrots, eggplants, bok choy,

and lentils are easy to tend. Also, homegrown vegetables have more nutrients and have no pesticides. That will be

good for your health."

Leia wanted to laugh when she imagined planting vegetables next to the mansion!

'Bianca is an ignorant country bumpkin. Why would you plant vegetables next to such a pretty mansion?'

She gave her opinion. "Grandpa, I don't think planting vegetables is a good idea. Planting flowers should be better.

All high-end mansions would have a flower garden. Who would plant vegetables?"

Everyone fell silent after Leia gave her opinion.

Bianca looked at Leia, who had her chin lifted up high. She was speechless.

Meanwhile, Leia felt smug that her opinion rendered Bianca speechless. She thought that her idea was very good.

Old Mr. Norman became unhappy instantly. His tone of voice against Leia was hostile. "So what if I want to plant

vegetables in my mansion? Flowers are only meant for looking, and they can't be eaten. Vegetables are more

practical!

"Moreover, why shouldn't I tend to a vegetable farm?

The generals of yore would have a hidden abode in which they tend to their gardens, and I'm only a small

politician!"

Leia blushed when she heard her grandfather's words. "I... I didn't mean it that way..." she stammered.

Old Mr. Norman's face turned red from anger because of Leia's words.

"So what do you mean? Only peasants can tend to vegetables? Are you looking down upon peasants? Everyone's

ancestors are peasants! I grew up on a farm!

"The food we eat in the big city is supplied by millions and millions of peasant farmers toiling in rural areas, yet you

look down upon those hard workers. Without them, you would have starved to death! If I hadn't left the farm and

made a name for myself, you'd still be a village girl!"

Queenie saw that her father-in-law was getting agitated. She poured a cup of tea for Old Mr. Norman and handed it

to him. "Leia didn't mean that, Father. I don't think she's criticizing anyone. You don't have to be so bothered about

it. Have some tea. You're still recuperating, and you shouldn't be agitated."

Leia looked at her mother resentfully. She felt very aggrieved.

She bit her lip and apologized to her grandfather. "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I didn't think through what I said, but I've

never looked down upon peasants. You can let me know whatever you want to plant in your garden. I'll try to look

for the seeds."

Old Mr. Norman ignored Leia.

Old Mrs. Norman glared at her husband. "I say, why are you getting so worked up? You ought to plant flowers in

mansions. It'll be a pretty sight in spring when all the flowers are in bloom! Of course, we can plant vegetables too,

and we'll have healthy vegetables to eat. It's entirely up to one's preferences, and Leia only voiced her opinion. Why

are you getting so mad at my granddaughter?"

The conversation took an awkward turn because of Leia's words. Bianca felt embarrassed.

She thought that it was time to leave, but Luke was in Jack's study discussing something. He should take some time

there.

Bianca excused herself and went to the washroom.

The bathroom in the Norman residence was decorated with vines and was separated into two. The washbasin was

in the outer half, while the toilet in the inner half was very modern and clean, i

After Bianca stepped out from the toilet, she saw Leia coming in on her high heels... 1
