Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 850

Chapter 850 He Had Never Seen Such Prejudice

Leia was dressed in a pure white sleeveless scalloped dress with a round neckline and a tapered waistline. She had light makeup on, and that made her look like an innocent young woman. She seemed quite docile, just like the character she always portrayed back when she was an actress.

Her right hand was holding Old Mrs. Norman's arm, while her left was holding two big shopping bags. She was whispering something to her grandmother.

Old Mrs. Norman was giggling happily. Wrinkles appeared on her well- maintained face.

"Grandma," Bianca stood up from her seat and greeted Old Mrs. Norman. She held a grape in her hand.

The sweetness that had lingered in her mouth suddenly bectasteless.

Old Mrs. Norman reflexively turned to the voice that had greeted her. She was visibly surprised when she saw Bianca, and the joyous expression on her face reduced by a little. "It's you, Bianca. Why did you chere when it's so warm outside?"

She was not fond of that granddaughter, even though the DNA test had conclusively proved that Bianca was biologically related to her.

Firstly, the old woman showered her love on Leia, who had lived in the Norman residence since she was a young girl.

Secondly, Bianca was not a meek woman, and she had embarrassed the Normans publicly several times before she was reunited with her birth parents. Moreover, Bianca did not suck up to her grandmother, and Old Mrs. Norman could not find any reason to like her.

Thirdly, even though Bianca was reunited with the Normans, she insisted on being a Rayne instead of changing her surname.

Those were the reasons why Old Mrs. Norman was not fond of Bianca.

Bianca knew that her grandmother was not fond of her, and she was not going to play up to her whims.

Whenever she cto visit her grandfather, she would greet her grandmother and nothing more.

Old Mr. Norman was unhappy that his wife treated his granddaughter that way. He had told his wife multiple times in private that she should not be so cold toward Bianca, but she never changed, which made him helpless.

Considering that it was rare that Bianca visited him, Old Mr. Norman told his wife with a long face, "So what if she's here? Can't she cto her grandparents' house? Bea's considerate enough to bring me two bottles of herbal liqueur too. Why, you're her grandmother, yet you don't welcher?

"That's not what I said! You misunderstand me, old man!" Old Mrs. Norman replied sheepishly. She did not say another word, but her expression toward Bianca beceven more unpleasant.

Seeing that Old Mrs. Norman was aggrieved, Leia tried to speak up for her grandmother. "You've misunderstood Grandma's words, Grandpa. She's saying that it's warm outside, and she's worried that Bianca might have a heatstroke... isn't that so, Bianca?" She said gently.

Bianca gave a side-eye to Leia. "It is indeed quite warm outside. If you can bring Grandma shopping despite the heat, then I shouldn't neglect my other grandparent."

She looked at the bags with luxury brand logos that Leia held. Her implication was obvious.

Leia's smile froze on her face. "Grandma hasn't gone out for a walk for a long time! She needs the exercise. It's not good for her to stay at hfor too long."

Bianca chuckled. "You're so considerate, Leia."

Old Mr. Norman could sense the tension between those two siblings.

He coughed deliberately and told the caretaker standing there awaiting orders, "It's rare that both of my granddaughters are here. We should have a sumptuous lunch today, Jen. Please buy double the ingredients when you go to the grocery store later. Let's have a good lunch."

At Old Mr. Norman's age, what he wanted the most was a harmonious family. Even though Leia was not his biological granddaughter, she had lived with the Normans for almost twenty years, and he had already treated her like family.

Of course, that was provided that Leia behaved.

Old Mrs. Norman sighed and picked up Leia’s hand. "You're a good girl for going around town with me today. I hope you didn't findtroublesome. I’ve missed you, and you should stay over for a few days. I'll give a call to your parents later in the evening," she sounded very caring when she said that.

Leia gently rested her head on Old Mrs. Norman's shoulders and said coyly, "Alright, Grandma. I'd like to take a bath now. You should jointoo so that I can wash your back." "I'll take my bath later in the evening. You should go first." Old Mrs. Norman beckoned to the caretaker. "Jen, please prepare Leia's bathwater and a set of clean clothes for her. You should tidy up her room too. She's going to stay over for a few days." "Yes, Madam."

The caretaker undid her apron and helped Leia carry the shopping bags." Please followupstairs, Ms. Leia."

While Leia walked behind the caretaker, she glanced knowingly at Bianca, as though saying, "So what if you're the Normans' biological granddaughter? Grandma lovesmore anyway!"

Old Mr. Norman did not like where this was going. He said, "If that's the case, you should spend some tchatting with Bianca..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Old Mrs. Norman faked a yawn and said lazily, "I'm tired from all that walking. I'll be back in my room for a rest."

Old Mrs. Norman turned around and walked away without looking at Bianca.

Old Mr. Norman was furious. "You're becoming more muddled as you age!

Can't you see who's..."

He was so angry that he could not finish his sentence.

He had never seen his wife being so biased. Bianca was their biological granddaughter, but his wife would rather favor their adoptive granddaughter instead.

Bianca was used to being prejudiced against. She did not mind it.

Instead, she comforted Old Mr. Norman, "It's fine, Grandpa. She can do whatever she likes as long as she's happy. I'm happy enough that you care for me!"

Old Mr. Norman gazed at his granddaughter profoundly. He wanted to say something, but all that came out of his mouth was a long sigh.

His wife might be muddled, but he was not.

Bianca was an outstanding young woman. She was much better than Leia when it cto her career or personality. Unfortunately, Old Mrs. Norman had been swayed by Leia's sugar-coated words and would rather dote upon her than Bianca. What a pity!
