Chapter 934 She Had Never Been Treated Like This
Tania looked at Leia indifferently and said, "Leia Norman, right? I've heard about you. You're an actress who used to be fairly
popular."
When she heard that, Leia knew that Tania was not a fan of hers... Maybe it was because she did not like that she was in the
entertainment industry.
Leia explained herself, "I chose to enter the entertainment industry to fulfill my mother's wishes. When she was young, she
wanted to be a star."
Tania's gaze was sharp. She walked over and sat down on the velvet sofa laced with gold thread. The caretaker poured her a
cup of tea and handed it to her.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip. "This needs more tea leaves."
The nanny said immediately, "I'll make you another cup."
Brody gave Leia a look, sat down, and massaged Tania's shoulders while praising Leia. "Mom, although Leia is an actress, she’s
also a kind and wonderful girl. She’s not what you’d expect for someone who’s an actress."
Tania watched her son rant about Leia and thought to herself that Leia must have bewitched her son. It had not taken long for
Leia to make him fall hopelessly for her.
"I have my opinion on this matter." She slammed the teacup on the coffee table.
The clank of the porcelain cup on the glass of the coffee table was not too loud, but it stabbed through Leia's heart.
Her heart was beating violently. She dared not speak as she looked at Tania and Brody.
Julius glanced at Leia with a half-smile, then sat on the sofa. He picked up the newspaper and read it.
He had yet to chime in on the matter between Brody and Leia.
Leia saw the smile on the corner of his mouth. She was familiar with every expression on the man's face.
She was his prey. Leia had not forgotten that Julius had specifically asked her to accompany him on a business trip.
Although she hired a model to attend on her behalf, she still remembered the man's keen interest in her at the time.
"Mom." Brody tried to persuade Tania further. After all, Leia's belly was getting bigger and bigger. Their wedding could no longer
be dragged on.
A child born out of wedlock was an illegitimate child. If Leia were from an ordinary family, he would be fine with raising an
illegitimate child.
However, Leia was the adopted daughter of the Norman family. She grew up spoiled as her adoptive father was the Provincial
Committee Secretary.
Her status and appearance matched his.
That was why Brody was doing his best to convince his parents and grandmother.
Tania raised her hand, stopped her son's chattering, and looked at Leia with a cold expression. "You went into the entertainment
industry to fulfill your mother's dream?" "Yes." Leia nodded.
Tania was more difficult to deal with than she had anticipated.
Tania's gaze was full of disdain. "A mother who allows her daughter to enter the entertainment industry is not a good mother. Are
you her cash cow?"
Leia's gaze for help fell on Brody for help. She needed him to speak up for her.
"Mom, Leia's family doesn't lack money. Her father is the Provincial Committee Secretary," Brody explained.
Tania had worked abroad for a long time and was not familiar with local news. She had no idea about Leia's previous scandals.
Julius, who was well aware, said nothing about it.
He had missed Leia.
Tania was surprised. 'The daughter of the Provincial Committee Secretary?'
Tania thought that Leia looked like the kind of actress who would seduce men for money. She never expected Leia to be the
daughter of the Provincial Committee Secretary.
She was close to many high-ranking officials and nobles. No daughter of theirs would act like this.
Tania was annoyed.
She glanced at Julius. He was reading the newspaper without saying anything except for the occasional grunts of dissatisfaction.
The caretaker re-brewed a pot of tea and walked over, carefully pouring two cups. One cup was placed in front of Julius, and one
cup was placed in front of Tania. "Master, Madam, this is the tea. Enjoy!"
Tania picked up her cup and told the caretaker, "You don’t need to cook today. I’ve already booked a private room. Our family of
four will head out for dinner."
A family of four... If she included Grandma Hilton, it meant that Leia was excluded.
Leia was embarrassed, and tears filled her eyes. They were about to fall at anytime. She looked like a sad puppy.
Brody frowned and said, "Mom, Leia is here today to visit both of you."
Tania was annoyed by her son and put the teacup down. "What did your grandmother say about this?"
Brody was stunned. He knew it was best not to lie to his mother and said while feeling slightly embarrassed, "Grandma has
some misunderstandings about Leia. Mom, Leia is a good girl. Her first time was with me." "Brody..." Leia did not expect him to
say that.
If it were not for Julius, she would have made up something on the spot to get away with it...
However, Julius was present...
Leia glanced at him from the corners of her eyes.
Julius was still reading the newspaper. He frowned when he heard what his son said. 'Leia's first time?'
Although he had not seen Leia in a hotel with a man, he was sure that she had done something along the lines.
Brody had been brought up by Grandma Hilton since he was a child. He had also learned about how to see through someone's
lies. Leia was the kind of woman who would do anything to get additional resources and was quite experienced in seducing men.
Julius kept his mouth shut, while Tania was attacking Leia.
Tania was beyond furious as she looked at her son. Are you confused? She said it’s her first time and you believe her? She
could have easily gotten it reconstructed in the hospital. Why are you so stupid?! I have trust in your grandma's judgment. Don't
even think about getting me to agree to the things she disagrees with."
Leia was upset that her plan did not work. The women in the Hilton family were bitter and mean. None of the men were good
either!
She continued acting pitiful, but in her heart, she could not wait to leave a few scratches on Tania's face.
All she wanted was to marry Brody. Why could they not leave her alone?
She said nothing about how useless Brody was, so why could they not just accept her? She had never been treated like this
since she was a child!
Brody glanced at Leia and added, "Mom, Leia's belly-"
Leia interrupted him and bowed deeply to Tania, acting like a sad puppy as she uttered, "Uncle Julius and Aunt Tania, I'm sorry
to have caused you trouble. Brody, you can stay with your family. Don't worry about me. I’ll head back first."
She covered her face and rushed out of Hilton Residence.
"Leia!" Brody caught up.
Leia leaped into his arms and said, "Brody, I don’t want to live anymore... I'll die with the baby!"
Brody gently held her back to comfort her. "Don't worry, Leia. This is temporary, I’ll make sure to convince my parents. As long as
they agree, my grandma won’t be a problem."
Leia cursed at the Hiltons in her heart. She thought that Brody was a granny’s boy, but now she found out that he was also a
mommy's boy. He needed his parents’ approval for everything. Even if she gave birth to the child in her stomach, she may not be
able to marry into the Hilton family.
She had to marry Brody before the child was born!
