True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1802

After hanging up the phone, Ernest came out of the room to find that Leah was sitting on the sofa outside. Seeing him coming out, Leah asked him anxiously, "Did you make the call?"

Ernest nodded and answered, "Yes, my mother told me to take you home for dinner in a few days."

"Ah!" Leah was discomposed as soon as she heard that, and there was a patent nervousness in her look.

Looking at Ernest, she asked nervously, "Are you going to take me to your home for dinner? What should I wear? What gifts should I prepare? Is it appropriate for me to go home with you so soon? I think it's too soon. Isn't it too fast? Do you find it appropriate?"

Seeing how Leah bombarded him with so many questions without stopping, Ernest didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Going home with me for dinner is not an exactly dangerous activity. Why are you getting so jumpy?" He walked over, bent down and rested both hands on the sofa's handles. Then, he leaned over and moved closer to Leah. It was plainly visible to him that she was high-strung and was in a panic.

It seemed that the news really put her on pins and needles.

He didn't quite understand a woman's mindset. He wondered why she was so apprehensive about meeting his parents.

After a cogitation by putting himself in her shoes, he thought it might be a similarity between girls.

They would get agitated easily because they were easily shy.

He found Leah's expression at that moment, which had been filled with anxiety and dismay, very adorable.

His expression softened when he noticed it. Following that, he looked at her, grinned and said, "It's all right. Don't be nervous. I'll take care of you."

Pouting, Leah stared at him with her eyes widened, without saying a word.

Ernest extended his hand and tapped the exquisite looking tip of her nose with his slender finger before saying dotingly, "It seems that I can't reject my parents. You still have to go back with me to meet them."

"I'm aware of it." Leah pouted again. "I've known that I need to meet your parents since I met your uncle-in-law today. However, don't you think that meeting your parents now is a little too hasty? We've just reconciled, and there are still too many misunderstandings and differences of opinion between us. I just feel that this is too impetuous. You have to let me think about it. After all, it's the most important part of my life, and I don't want to act impulsively. I hope you can understand."

Hearing that, Ernest frowned. He thought Leah was just too bashful to meet his parents, but he didn't expect her to say that.

Ernest had a hunch that she didn't just hesitated because she was bashful. It seemed to him that she didn't want to meet his parents at that stage.

Having discovered that, Ernest furrowed his brows and felt that she had taken too many considerations into account.

He didn't like those considerations that she was having.

He took a deep breath and told her, "So, do you mean that you still need to consider your relationship with me carefully, and that you won't necessarily marry me because you have other choices? Or, let me put in this way, you are uncertain if you want to marry me in the future."

Leah pursed her lips, recalling what she had experienced in London. She could not help but to feel worried.

Nonetheless, she wanted to marry Ernest because she liked him.

She replied, "Ernest, don't get me wrong. I think it's necessary to make it clear to you. I've never thought about not marrying you. I just think that if there is a misunderstanding between us one day, or if I've done something wrong that dissatisfies you, you might be angry with me."

Ernest answered, "However, I think these are all your excuses."

Leah shook her head. "See? Just like what's happening right now, whenever what I say don't go with your expectations, you'll unconsciously frown, and there will be an unapproachable aura about you. It's very cold, and such coldness really intimidates me."

Hearing that, Ernest knitted his brows unconsciously again. Subsequently, his jaw dropped, as if he was incredulous.

"Look how you're frowning now. Isn't it scary?" As Leah spoke, she took a picture of him with her phone, and then showed it to him.

Ernest took a look and couldn't help but to be dumbfounded.

It was because his image in the photo was indeed very frightening. He wondered since when did such sharpness creep into his expression.

He instantly relaxed his brows, trying to ease the aloofness on his face.

"It's much better now." Leah smiled at his change as she actually felt more comfortable. She said gravely to him, "Actually, my determination mainly depends on your attitude towards me."
