Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 473



Gabriella found Samantha looking distressed, and it pained her to see her like this.

"Samantha, what's wrong?"

Luckily, the place they chose was devoid of onlookers. Otherwise, their every move might become tomorrow's headline news.

Samantha knew the best way to approach Gabriella was to play the victim, so she went over with reddened eyes.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Mrs. Leon, you're here..."

Not only did she have to appear pitiful before Gabriella, but she had to master the art of tugging at Gabriella's heartstrings. Instead of coming off as unreasonable, Samantha wanted Gabriella to think that she had been treated unfairly.

Every action and word from Samantha hit Gabriella right where it mattered.

"Don't worry, Samantha. Although we're in Charleston, we have Matthew backing us up. I refuse to believe he'd cut ties with his own mother!"

They did not come all the way here to be at someone else's beck and call.

Samantha attempted to calm Gabriella down, lest the lurking reporters take notice and tarnish their image.

"Mrs. Leon, calm down. There are cameras around..."

Charleston's Wine Festival this year was truly impressive. Despite nearing the end of the event, it still looked as spectacular as ever.

Gabriella could not help but notice the exotic decor of the palace. It was vastly different from what she was used to at home.

Samantha was afraid that Gabriella's attitude toward Lucy might change upon learning about her background.

"Hmph, how dare Lucy think she can tie down my son? He hasn't come home in so long, and he never even called..."

Samantha was relieved to see that Gabriella continued to hold Lucy in disdain.

Pretending to be distressed,

Samantha said, "Mrs. Leon, maybe he hasn't been able to keep in touch because he's busy at the company. Don't take it to heart. I know

tel:

Matthew. He's responsible and filial. He won't continue treating you like this forever..."

Samantha's words effectively soothed the visibly frustrated

Gabriella. She grabbed Samantha's hand and said, "Samantha, you're a

wonderful woman. If only

Matthew

could see that, he wouldn't treat you like this. Lucy wouldn't even stand a chance."

“Mrs. Leon... I don't think Matthew likes me very much, so he—”

Gabriella interrupted her, "Nonsense. Matthew still lacks emotional

maturity, so he's easily misled

l.ne

others. Trust me. I'll talk some sense into him."

"But you've seen Lucy's background... She's a real princess..."

“Samantha, even if you dress a pauper in expensive clothes, that doesn't make her a princess. Do you understand?"

Gabriella's words soothed Samantha. In other words, Gabriella completely looked down on Lucy even though she was a royal heiress.

Gabriella's bad impression of Lucy had become irreparable, so it was unlikely for her to change her opinion.
