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.
