Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 332

Chapter 332 Her Heart Quivered Uncontrollably

Night fell, and a sky of stars shone over the earth.

The outdoors might be thick with snow, but Millennia Hotel was brightly lit. Old Mr. Norman's 70th birthday party was held there.

All the important figures from the business, political, and military circles were there.

The hotel was decorated grandly with a gigantic crystal chandelier, a warm fireplace, and an extravagant mural.

Old Mr. Norman sat straight, dressed in a classic suit. He carried the authority of a politician in each of his movements.

He remained spirited even though he was old. Currently, the guests were offering their birthday wishes to him.

Every guest in attendance was a socialite.

Old Mr. Norman might have retired, but he was nonetheless influential in the political circle. Furthermore, his son Jack was also an important figure, and the guests were eager to suck up to him.

Mr. and Mrs. Jack Norman were in the lobby greeting the guests. Queenie was in her element, while Jack was not very fond of such situations.

However, his father wanted his birthday celebration to be grand, and that was why Jack had organized one for him.

"Happy birthday, Grandpa! I wish that you will remain healthy and prosperous always!" Leia's sweet voice could be heard amid the bustling crowd.

She was dressed in a pure white oblique shoulder evening gown for the party. She wore an appropriate amount of make-up on her petite face, which made her look exquisite.

In fact, she looked elegant and ethereal, as though she was not from the mortal plane.

With so many important guests around, Old Mr. Norman could not treat his granddaughter coldly.

However, he was not too enthusiastic either. "Thank you for coming to visit me even though you're so busy," he said to Leia.

Leia's smile froze on her face.

Did Old Mr. Norman imply that she seldom visited him?

She knew that even if she visited him, he would not want to see her anyway. She was not one to bring contempt upon herself.

Of course, Leia hid her true feelings in front of everyone.

She smiled sweetly and handed a gift box to her grandfather. "You're my one and only grandfather, Grandpa, and it's your birthday today. I'll have to visit you no matter how busy I am. I can find other jobs, but I only have one Grandpa..."

Old Mr. Norman was indifferent toward Leia's flattery, but Old Mrs. Norman was smiling from ear to ear.

"You're so considerate, my dear Leia. I heard that you were overseas for a movie shoot lately. Are you still jetlagged?" Old Mrs. Norman said gently as she held Leia's hand.

Leia mischievously stuck her tongue out. "I'm fine now, Grandma. I'm still very healthy. I bought this present for Grandpa when I was overseas. I hope you'll like it, Grandpa." "What did you buy, Leia? You shouldn't have spent so much money on a present..." Old Mrs. Norman opened the wrapping as she spoke.

In the box was a tobacco pipe made of carved jade. One could see that it was worth a lot of money.
