Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401 How Embarrassing!

The soup sent Leia's taste buds into overdrive!

The sour, bitter, spicy, and salty taste of her soup assaulted her sinuses. It felt as though a thin needle was poking on her nostrils and caused beads of sweat to form on her nose.

She wanted to cough, and there was even an urge to vomit coming from the back of her throat!

However, Leia had to maintain her graceful demeanor in front of the two Crawford elders and the two children looking at her with delighted anticipation. She tried her best to suppress the urge to throw up, and her smile froze on her face.

"How does the soup taste, Aunt Norman? Don't you like it? Big Bro said that it's very tasty! The chef even added truffles in it. It's not only delicious but also healthy! You're so pretty, Aunt Norman. You'll be even prettier after you finish the soup!”

Rainie's fingers kneaded her princess dress, and she smiled sweetly. She looked very adorable.

Allison was overjoyed when she saw that her two grandchildren were kind toward Leia.

No one was more willing to see the harmonious scene.

She grinned. "Look at how considerate my grandchildren are. They're so kind to you, Leia! You should appreciate Rainie's effort and finish the soup."

Allison might favor Leia to be her daughter-in-law, but she adored her grandchildren even more.

The twins had always rejected Leia's presence. Allison did not wish the children to have a falling out with their stepmother when Leia would eventually enter the Crawford household.

Now that Allison had said it, Leia was caught in a dilemma. The range of expressions on her face was fascinating to watch.

Leia wiped the sweat off her nose and tried to suppress the churning sensation in her stomach. "Rainie, is it okay if I finish the soup later?" "Don't you like the soup that I brought you, Aunt Norman? Boo hoo... I brought you the soup because I thought you like soup. Did Rainie do something wrong?" The little girl pouted and stared at Leia with her puppy eyes.

Even Old Master Crawford was moved by the little girl's adorable looks.

He beckoned at his great-granddaughter and hugged her. "Don't cry, dear Rainie. Here, let's eat dinner," he said lovingly.

Old Master Crawford placed Rainie's favorite fruit salad on her plate, then shot a withering glance at Leia.

'What's wrong with that young lady? She seems magnanimous, but she can't appreciate the kind gesture that my great-granddaughter showed her. How rude!

'Rainie doesn't even bring me soup!’

His impression toward Leia fell by a little.

Leia became nervous when she saw Old Master Crawford's unfriendly gaze. 'Oh no, I've forgotten about the most authoritative person in the household. He adores the twins and pampers them. I must have made him angry with my actions earlier.'

Leia gritted her teeth, braced herself, and drank the entire bowl of soup mixed with all sorts of seasonings in one shot!

She placed the empty bowl on the table. Her stomach was churning, and snot and tears were almost coming out of their respective orifices.

Bianca also shot a glance at Leia.

Leia was refilling Allison's plate in an attempt to gain her favor. Bianca was not sure how to feel about that.

It seemed that Leia thought that she would be able to marry Luke if she could gain the elders' favor...

If Luke did not have a mind of his own and relied on his mother for decisions, then her plan would work.

However, Luke was an imposing and assertive man. Not only would Allison not influence him, but even Old Master Crawford was also helpless.

Leia's efforts might be in vain after all.

The Crawfords' habit was to eat their meals in silence. None of the people there were comfortable sitting there, but nothing major happened.

Leia was getting impatient. She wanted to find a way to gain Luke's favor, but she did not know what to do.

When she saw the classic paintings on the wall, she became excited. "Old Master Crawford, are those paintings by Monet, the English painter? Monet is one of the most prolific realist painters. His works are exceptionally rare. It's amazing that you have one of his paintings..."

Bianca chuckled and nearly spat out the food in her mouth. She was dumbstruck by Leia's ignorance.

There were two fatal mistakes in Leia's statement. Firstly, Monet was not English but French. Secondly, he was an impressionist and not a realist...
