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

Chapter 984 The Adoptive Daughter Was Different From the Birth Daughter
Leia was surprised by what Queenie said.
When she divulged everything that day, Queenie felt sorry for her and said that she would not want Leia to suffer anymore. Leia
had already treated that as an approval to their relationship.
"Mom..." Leia stood up, sat next to Queenie, and refilled her teacup. "Have you forgotten what you said that day?"
Queenie sighed. She thought that Leia was more intelligent than that, so why did she behave as though she had been
hypnotized? Back then, Queenie did not know Brody's character, but things were different now.
She knew of Brody's character after the investigation, and she had changed her mind since then. However, she did not tell Leia
about that because she knew that Leia would not want to hear an opposing opinion.
Before she could say anything, Brody spoke, "Mrs. Norman, I only want to marry Leia."
Bianca, who was playing with Tommy, turned her head together with Queenie and looked at Brody.
"Mr. Hilton, we're not a wealthy family. Leia's father is only a government worker, and we can't compare to your family. In terms of
status, I don't think Leia is a match for you, and I'm surprised that for someone who emphasizes one's wealth, you'd want to
marry her and no one else." Queenie frowned. She did not want to tell him so directly that she objected to their marriage, but he
had mentioned it first.
Her tone of voice was gentle but resolutely firm.
Leia finally understood what Queenie had been saying, and that made her angry. She thought that her mother was being difficult
because she did not appreciate Brody showing off, but it turned out that she objected to their marriage!
Brody also finally knew Queenie's intentions. He was not angry, but instead, he smiled. "Are you objecting to our marriage, Mrs.
Norman?"
Queenie could sense Leia's unease and patted the back of her hand. "Mr. Hilton, you have to understand that marriage is not
child's play. Not every family can be blissful because of money alone. Leia needs a loving husband and not a rich one."
She did not think that Leia would be happy being married to Brody.

Leia bit her lower lip. Why would her mother say that? Why would she make that decision on her behalf? She shot a glance at
the young man next to him.
Brody could see that Leia was aggrieved. He could not believe that the Norman family would reject an outstanding man like him.
He looked down upon the Norman family. Why would a mere politician receiving a fixed salary be so arrogant?
"Do you think so too, Ms. Rayne?" He asked.
Bianca was surprised by the question. She had tried to make herself invisible, but Brody involved her in the conversation
anyway.
She shook her head and said, "I don't have any thoughts on the matter.
This is between the two of you."
She knew that no one in the household would be able to change the outcome. Leia was furious because Bianca might as well
have not said anything.
"How about this? I'll tell you something, then you can decide if I get to marry Leia." Brody stood up and towered over Queenie as
though making an important announcement. "Leia is already pregnant with my child. If you continue to object to the marriage, I
can choose to walk away, and Leia would be the one at a disadvantage."
Brody might be his grandmother's favorite, but he had conducted an investigation on his father without his grandmother and
mother’s knowledge. He found out that his father had many extramarital relationships, and he needed a child to secure his
position in the family.
Leia was already far into her pregnancy, and the baby could not be aborted. The only way was to induce labor.
Even if he did not marry Leia, he would take the baby away after it was delivered. If the Normans wanted the baby, he was
prepared to fight them legally. He would like to see if the Normans wanted their reputation or the baby more.
Queenie stood up in shock and instantly felt her head spin. She held onto the couch and looked at Leia. "Is that true, Leia?"
Leia did not expect that Brody would tell Queenie about her pregnancy.
They had promised to tell Queenie after she agreed to their marriage.

Seeing how smug he was, as though he was victorious, she inwardly cursed his stupidity.
"Mom, I..." Leia wanted to say something but checked herself. She looked at Brody helplessly.
Her father would kill her if he found out that she was pregnant before her marriage.
Brody ignored her gaze and whistled. "I'll be going off now. I'll leave it to you to decide if I can marry Leia."
He walked away without turning back.
Leia wanted to give chase, but her mother stopped her. "Are you really pregnant, Leia?"
Queenie was clutching her forehead. The news was too shocking, which made her feel dizzy. She looked as though she was
going to pass out at anytime.
Bianca immediately stood up and supported her. "Don't be too agitated, Mom. Please sit down."
As Queenie sat down, she looked at Leia's loose clothes. It would be summer soon, and it should have been the season for
short sleeves. She instantly understood why Leia was dressed in that thick jacket.
Leia was furious as she watched Brody leave. She stopped walking and turned to look at her mother. Her priority was to
convince Queenie. Once Queenie agreed to the marriage, Jack would agree too.
"Listen to me, Mom..." Leia stepped forward and pushed Bianca aside.
Queenie's face was pale as silent tears flowed out of her closed eyes. She did not expect that the adoptive daughter she had
raised and pampered would get pregnant before she was married.
No wonder Brody was so arrogant. Ever since Leia became pregnant, Queenie never had a say in it!
Queenie knew that a woman who got pregnant before she was married would face harsh criticism from society as well as being
at a disadvantage in her in-laws' household.
"You disappoint me, Leia," she said while sobbing.
Leia was angry when she heard that. 'So what if I'm pregnant? Bianca gave birth to twins when she was eighteen. Why didn't
she disappoint you?

'You're only playing favorites! I know I'm only adopted, and I can't compare to your birth daughter!'
Leia's mind was twisted. However, she needed her parents' support to marry Brody. She took off her jacket, revealed her bulging
stomach, and began to cry. While crying, she picked up the teacup and admitted her fault.
"I know that I'm wrong, Mom, but I love Brody too much. Brody said that his family will accept me as long as I bear a child for
him, and I believed him. That's why I'm pregnant now. I love him too much, Mom, and that was why I trusted him. You should
know that I won't fall in love with a man that easily..."
Leia put the blame on Brody while also hinting about Luke.
Queenie still felt guilty about what happened at Luke's wedding.
Bianca frowned when she heard that. She remembered what happened when she first met Brody.
The man was chauvinistic and conservative. Would he impregnate Leia before they were married?
Queenie trembled and cried as she listened to Leia's words.
Bianca handed her mother a napkin. "Don't cry, Mom. We should focus on finding a solution for Leia."
