Chapter 282 Some Men Are Ridiculously Elegant...

Leia placed the flask of chicken soup on the table and called out gently, "Mr. Crawford."

Her mother had said that the fastest way to a man's heart was through his stomach.

Of course, Leia did not know how to fry an egg, let alone make chicken soup. However, Queenie, her adopted mother, was a good cook.

Luke turned around. The female celebrity was dazzled by his impeccable facial features.

Undeniably, Luke was a very handsome man. He was handsome not only because of his sculpted face but also because of his mature character.

Luke might look young, but he carried the dominating and enigmatic deportment of a king.

That must have been the culmination of many years of experience in the harsh battlefield of the business world.

"Mr. Crawford, I'd like to discuss with you about our collaboration. Right, I've also brought some chicken soup for you. I hope you'll like it," Leia said.

Luke frowned slightly. "Thank you, Ms. Norman. I'm sorry, I've already had breakfast, so you shouldn't have done so much for me. Mr. Doyle, my assistant, will contact you about the details for our collaboration. You don't have to worry," he said coldly.

When she saw that Luke was acting so coldly toward her, Leia felt uncomfortable as though she had a bone stuck in her throat.

She glanced at the stacks of documents on Luke's table and cautiously asked, "Did I disturb your work, Mr. Crawford?"

Leia would sometimes feel inferior about her status, despite her father being an important politician. After all, she was only a girl who was raised in an orphanage, and not Jack and Queenie's birth daughter.

There was a possibility that their birth daughter might be alive, and she would one day return to replace Leia's position in the family.

She needed to find some insurance for the rest of her life, in case the real Ms. Norman returned to the family. Even if Jack and Queenie would abandon her i n the future, she would still be able to enjoy the high life without any worries.
