True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1742

Leah was shocked. Oh no, Ernest had found out about what happened. Why did she blabber to him?

She felt a little annoyed. Actually, she didn't want Ernest to worry about her.

Alas, she was a horrible liar and ended up telling the truth anyway.

Now that Ernest was holding her chin, his dark gaze pierced into her very soul.

She laughed drily before she fell silent for a few seconds. Then, she said, "It's not as bad as you think. Hogan is very stubborn, but he's dumb."

She actually wanted to comfort him. Leah didn't want Ernest to worry about her so much.

However, Ernest felt that Leah must have encountered something serious, but she was just good at pretending that everything was okay.

He had guessed how difficult things were to deal with and the predicament Leah might be facing. His heart ached.

His eyes narrowed before he leaned down to kiss Leah on the lips. He kissed her so hard that her mind went blank.

The kiss was extremely intense, and it did not give Leah any room to think. She was overwhelmed by Ernest's unique presence.

After that, Ernest pressed his forehead to Leah's and said, "Why didn't you tell me? Although I'm not home, I can find someone to take care of this. Hogan thinks he can do whatever he wants when I'm not around."

There was deep worry and distress in his voice. It was rough, and his breaths were hot, causing Leah to blush.

He continued, "I'll get someone to help you deal with this. Once Hogan realizes that I can hurt him just as easily when I'm not home, he won't ever harass you again. You want to deal with this yourself, but what if something happens to you?"

He was quite worried because Hogan had always wanted Leah for Himself.

He had no choice but to be concerned.

Hogan was a man that suddenly realised that he loved Leah when he lost her.

Hence, his reluctance to let her go was understandable, but it was a problem when he kept coming after Leah.

Leah's chest tightened when he heard the worry in his tone. She said softly, "I can cope with it. Don't

worry."

"You think that you can deal with everything, but what if something happens? Is it so hard for you to tell me what's going on, Leah?" Ernest's voice rose, and he sounded angry.

Leah was shocked.

Ernest let go of Leah, stepped back and gave her a serious look.

His breathing was rapid and erratic. The look in his eyes was very concerning.

Leah blinked in surprise before she laughed out loud. Then, she asked, "Hey, you're scaring me. Why were you so loud just now? Although the butler said we were alone, you don't have to shout. People would think that I'm hurting you."

This was very typical of Leah.

Ernest's serious expression deflated right away.

He looked at Leah helplessly.

However, he managed to calm himself down a bit before he spoke. "Leah, don't think you can distract me with some tasteless sex joke."

Oh no.

Ernest was way too smart for that.

Even a dirty joke couldn't sway his mind.

Hence, she could only look at him with puppy eyes as she remained quiet.

To Ernest, she was incredibly adorable.

He trembled, and his breathing quickened. Another part of him started becoming restless.
