Chapter 646 A Mother's Love

Leia hid away her animosity, then walked up and leaned against Queenie.

"I'm back, Mom. Do we have a guest?"

"Aunt Queenie..." Charmaine called out weakly behind Leia.

Even the usually wanton Charmaine had to behave in front of the noble Queenie.

Queenie frowned when she saw Leia and the other young woman in heavy makeup.

She was not fond of Leia making friends with women like Charmaine. She felt that Charmaine had passed on many bad habits to Leia.

However, considering that Leia and Charmaine were good friends, Queenie nodded at Charmaine and said gently to Leia, "My company needs to hire a new batch of architects, and I love Bea's designs. That's why I invited her over to talk about work."

Leia's gaze fell on Queenie's hand that was holding Bianca's hand. She was unhappy when she saw that.

Bianca happened to notice Leia's gaze that was filled with hatred and resentment.

Seeing that, Bianca smiled gently at Leia, though there was a hint of provocation in that smile.

Usually, she would not have done that, but she was quite willing to see the conceited Leia being angered.

As expected, Leia pretended to be unbothered, but the jealousy and frigidity in her gaze were obvious.

Bianca could only find it incredibly ironic. Queenie was Bianca's birth mother, and for so many years, Leia had taken what should have belonged to Bianca. What gave Leia the right to glare at Bianca that way? Why should Bianca allow Leia to occupy her position in the Norman family?

If Leia had a better personality, Bianca did not mind staying away from the Normans. However, Leia was a scheming and sinister woman, and she was afraid that her birth parents might be spending their time and effort raising an ingrate. Worse yet, Leia might actively harm them.

Queenie did not notice the tense undercurrents that flowed between the two young women.

She pulled Leia in front of Bianca and said lovingly," Leia, Bea is a really talented woman. She's older than you, and you should greet her as your elder sister.

Once the collaboration is confirmed, Ms. Rayne will come to our house often, and the two of you will meet each other more often. You need to be on good terms with Elder Sister, alright? I know that you're prejudiced against Bea because of Luke, but you can't force Luke to love you, and it's already in the past. One day you'll understand what I mean."
