There was an unexpected guest at lunch. That was a young man in his late twenties who looked somewhat effeminate.
He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and his hair was in a side part hairstyle. He looked like a business elite.
Old Mrs. Norman explained that the young man was named Brody Hilton, and he was the grandson of a good friend. He had just returned from abroad and was here to visit Old Mrs. Norman.
She said that the young man had a good background. He had a doctorate from MIT, and he was currently the chairman of an Esports association under Hilton Corporation, as well as the general manager of several media companies.
Throughout lunch, Old Mrs. Norman's gaze flitted between Leia and Brody.
Her matchmaking intentions were all too obvious.
Bianca did not have a good impression of that young man. He might seem gentlemanly, but Bianca always felt that his eyes often wandered toward her chest.
Bianca was dressed in a conservative dress that covered her body from her neck down, but that did not stop Brody from ogling at her.
That was utterly disgusting.
Old Mrs. Norman held Leia's hand and introduced her to Brody. "This is Leia, my granddaughter whom I've mentioned to you before. She had a degree in Visual and Performing Arts from the London College of Arts.
"She's an outstanding actress. She's even won a gold award from the Houston International Film Festival, not to mention all the awards from the other events. It's just that she has been focusing on her career, and she hasn't found a significant other yet. As her grandmother, I'm so worried about her!"
Brody put down the cutlery in his hands in a deliberate manner and said exaggeratedly, "Wow! That can't be! Your granddaughter is so outstanding, and she doesn't have a boyfriend yet?"
He had been attracted by Bianca's pure demeanor ever since he stepped into the house. His eyes could not look away from Bianca, and he could not be bothered about Leia.
Under Old Mrs. Norman's insistent coaxing, Brody glanced reluctantly at Leia. He was not very interested in Leia's modest and diffident looks, especially when contrasted to Bianca's magnanimous and elegant demeanor.
Even so, he reached out and shook Leia's hand as a sign of respect to Old Mrs. Norman, though he sounded quite arrogant. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Norman. I am Brody, and my parents own Hilton Corporation. I am currently managing one of Hilton Corporation's subsidiaries, and it is my pleasure to meet you."
Leia was once part of the entertainment industry, and she had seen her fair share of handsome men. The young man in front of her was not considered exceedingly handsome, but he came from a wealthy family. Hilton Corporation could be considered one of the top corporations in A City.
Leia was even more interested when her grandmother said that Brody was the sole heir to the family business.
She pretended to be bashful as she said softly, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hilton."
In the past, she would not even have bothered looking at him.
However, her current situation did not give her too many options.
