Chapter 727 Ms. Bianca Is Miles Better Than Ms. Leia
T Corporation's press conference.
Seeing that Luke was praising his wife endlessly, another news reporter could not help but ask him,"Mr. Crawford, what’s the biggest mistake you've made in your life?"
Luke tugged on his tie gracefully as his magnetic voice said steadfastly," The biggest mistake in my lifewas becoming the CEO of T Corporation."
Everyone was stunned and kept silent for a moment.
The employees of T Corporation were all sweating over his answer.
There was no perfect answer to this question. One had to expose one's shortcomings to the public.
Luke's deep gaze looked focused under the spotlight as he said in a serious tone, "Since becoming theCEO of T Corporation, I’ve owed my wife and three children too much. If there’s a next life, I wouldchoose to have an ordinary job that would allow me to spend more time with my wife and children. Mybiggest mistake is that I’ve been married for so long but haven't had time to prepare a grand weddingfor her, let alone go for our honeymoon. When I have the time, I want to take her to the beach."
The applause went on and on...
The warm applause from the audience was so loud that it hurt the ears.
The next day, Luke dominated all the headlines of all major newspapers and tabloids across thecountry.
With the news of his return to A City, T Corporation's stock price rose rapidly, creating a legend.
Luke was a legend by himself, a legend that easily drove the stock price up.
Norman residence.
Leia dragged her tired body back home. She did not expect to see her parents at home.
They were playing with Tommy.
She saw her father, Jack Norman, who was usually stern and unapproachable, kneeling on the carpetin a ridiculous posture. He was pretending to be a horse while Tommy rode on his back.
Jack's perfectly ironed suit was wrinkled by Tommy.
However, Jack, who had OCD, was not furious and even had a smile on his serious face-just like anadorable teddy bear.novelbin
"Go! Go! Grandpa, go faster, hehe..." Tommy's laughter echoed in the living room, his little hands tightlygripping onto his grandpa's collar as his chubby short legs dangled in mid-air.
Queenie was afraid that her grandson would fall. She would open her arms from time to time, gentlyreminding Tommy, "My dear baby, be careful, don't fall..."
Jack and Queenie had their full attention on Tommy. No one noticed that Leia was back.
Leia took a step forward and watched the happy scene in front of her. Her clenched fists weretightening while her chest felt like something heavy was on it. She felt like she could not breathe.
Tommy was the child of that b*tch, Bianca. Since Bianca came to the Norman family, her status in theNorman family had been strengthening. Even her children were being regarded as treasures by theirparents. On the contrary, she became the most invisible and inconspicuous one.
Leia tried desperately to prevent her jealousy from erupting, but the anger in her eyes could not becontained.
Splash! Splash!
Tommy was excitedly playing with his toy water gun, spraying water all across the room.
The expensive carpet was soon soaked but instead of giving him a hard time, Mr. and Mrs. Normanwere still indulging their grandson.
When the muzzle was accidentally pointed at Leia, some of the water was sprayed on her expensivecustom-made coat. Her white clothing was quickly soaked.
The Chanel jacket that Leia had just bought from the luxury store with her best friend was destroyed.
Her sullen complexion became darker. She wanted to grab the bastard and slam him to the ground!
Tommy saw Leia's ferocious gaze and was scared. His arms were wrapped around Jack as his tinybody got closer to him, "Grandpa, Aunt Leia is scaring me..."
Jack Norman looked at Leia just in time to see her angry gaze that she did not manage to conceal. Hisface turned stern as he asked, "What's the matter?"
Leia was startled by her father's sudden cold expression. She blinked her guilty eyes and said, "l-lt’snothing. Dad, Mom, I'm going upstairs."
Queenie noticed Leia's embarrassed face and the water stains on her clothes. She was attentiveenough to be aware of the reason for her daughter's unhappiness.
However, she just smiled and said, "Leia, Tommy is still young and ignorant. He accidentally wettedyour clothes. Just take them to the dry cleaners and wash them. He’s just a kid, don’t mind him." "Mom,
it's okay. It's just clothes." Leia gritted her teeth as she said that.
Queenie nodded in satisfaction when she heard Leia's answer.
She felt that Leia had changed a lot in the past two years. Her once obedient and understandingdaughter became unpredictable and refused to communicate with her.
Every time Queenie wanted to talk to Leia, she would make up excuses to get out of it. Queenie did herbest but was still unsure of how to communicate with her.
Leia went up to the second floor. She looked at the joyous atmosphere in the living room on the firstfloor from the carved railing. Her heart became even more desolate.
She walked to her room without saying a word. At the corner of the second floor, she heard the twomaids chatting.
Leia's footsteps were light, and she was in the corner where it was a blind spot for the surveillancecameras. The maids were not aware that she was listening to their conversation.
"Hey, have you noticed that Ms. Leia's temper seems to be getting worse? She thrashes her roomevery chance she gets. When I went to clean her room last time, I saw that all the things in her roomwere broken. There were many expensive oil paintings, tea sets, and the like that turned into waste justlike that. How could she be so wasteful?! Ms. Leia's temper is so bad. Whoever wants to marry her willhave bad luck for eight lifetimes!" "Yeah, she’s not related by blood to Mr. and Mrs. Norman but hertemper is horrible! I don't know where her confidence comes from. Look at Ms.
Bianca, she’s Mr. Norman's biological daughter but she’s so gentle and kind -hearted. Last week, shegifted us a few sets of children's clothes for our grandchildren..." "Indeed, Ms. Bianca is miles betterthan Ms. Leia. Her good personality and looks are so much better than Leia's. No wonder Mr. and Mrs.
Norman like her so much." "Let's get back to the work at hand. If Ms. Leia finds out that we’re gossipingabout her, we will never hear the end of it!"
Leia's hand that was on the railing shook uncontrollably, and her body was trembling with anger.
Back in the bedroom, she rushed into the bathroom and stared at herself in the mirror. Her brows,eyes, and face were all exquisite and perfect, but compared to Bianca's appearance, she always feltworse off...
Thinking of how proud she used to be in front of Bianca and the frustration she had been suppressingfor the past two years, Leia felt a fit of bonechilling anger and shame.
She felt that her existence in the Norman family was just a joke.
Leia picked up the shower gel on the vanity table and threw it at the mirror.
She made a call with a cold expression...
She would never allow Bianca to live in peace!
