True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1803

Leah found Ernest's words a little threatening. He was forcing her.

Fixing her deep gaze on him, Leah sighed helplessly. Only then did she say, "Of course I want to marry you. Why would you even think that I don't want to marry you? Isn't the final goal of me doing all these things and communicating with you to marry you at last, and live a life with you?"

In Leah's mind, that was her real purpose. How could he doubt it?

Hearing that, Ernest finally softened his expression a little, and then the corners of his mouth were slightly curled.

"If you want to marry me, what's the difference between meeting my parents earlier and later?"

Leah was startled. His question had brought her back to the paradoxical situation.

It seemed that he still really wanted her to meet his parents.

"Besides, haven't you met my uncle? He likes you very much, and he told my aunt after he went back last time. Now, my whole family wants to meet you. Also, you've already accepted to my uncle's invitation. Don't tell me that you want to visit my aunt and uncle first before visiting my parents? That will be absurd and the priorities will be set wrong, right?"

Hearing what Ernest said, Leah was perplexed.

She blinked with a flash of worry in her eyes. Looking at Ernest, she said with great concern, "Yes, I seem to have accepted it, but I did it out of courtesy. In fact, I really haven't thought about having dinner with your relatives so soon, especially with your aunt and uncle. Even though I'm aware that they are the people who dote on you the most, but it seems a bit too hail-fellow-well-met for me."

While speaking, she smiled awkwardly as she had been filled with embarrassment and apprehension.

She felt so conflicted at the moment.

Gazing at Leah, an idea came into Ernest's mind. He then said, "You accepted it of your own accord. By the time my uncle invites you officially after he has made the preparation, if you turn him down, think about the impression you will make in our family. Will they consider you an unreliable girl?"

Ernest was confident that she would be unnerved after hearing what he said. Sure enough, she was panic-stricken in an instant when she heard his words.

Sitting on the sofa restlessly, she stared blankly at Ernest. Afterward, she shouted helplessly, "Yes, it seems so. Why didn't I think of it?"

Ernest looked at her with a smile and said nothing.

Leah became even more dejected.

She screamed as she was annoyed, "I did... I did promise your uncle. What should I do then?"

Ernest still didn't speak. Judging by his expression, it was as if he wanted to say that the choice was hers, and anyway, she was the one who made the promise with her own free will. He felt that it would be unwise to force her hastily, and that he'd better adopt a strategy to make her meet his parents earlier.

As a matter of fact, after chewing over his future sanely, he was determined to take her to be his wife.

If she was unwilling to meet his parents after a long time, it would turn out to be a real problem.

Therefore, he viewed their opinions as two different logics. He did agree with her words that they should be more rational.

Notwithstanding his agreement, he was doing everything for her.

He just wanted to convey the indication that he was ready to take her to be his wife by bringing her home to meet his parents.

Moreover, he wanted to let her know that his parents had felt the same.

Leah probably couldn't apprehend it then. Ernest hoped that she could understand it in the future.

Ernest looked at her without saying anything.

After listening to his words, Leah got fidgety. She immediately shook Ernest's arm coquettishly and said, "Then what should I do? They will definitely think that I don't respect them. I don't want to give such an impression to the elders."

"Then come home with me in a few days." Ernest's gaze was deep when he took her small hands and pulled her up.

The two of them stood face to face, looking at each other.

Leah hesitated and pursed her lips.

Ernest held her in his arms and said softly, "Leah, trust me. I know that you have a lot of uncertainties, and you are afraid that we may not have a happy ending, and that I may not be mature enough to provide you a blissful future."

Leah puckered her lips and stared blankly into his eyes.

She felt that Ernest seemed to know her well.

He understood what she thought even though she had not said them aloud.

Only then did she nod.
