True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1847

"Might as well call Essie and have her come. Everyone's home today, and it's so lively." Leah suggested.

Ernest shook his head and said, "No, it's easy to mess it up with so many people around today. We'd better wait for the right time."

Leah replied, "However, I think it's easier for her to shine in this sort of situation. Furthermore, Essie is tough. She knows us, and we can say that she is not be here to see Mr. Yarbrough, but to see us. She can be here as our guest."

Ernest lowered his head as he looked at Leah and said, "Aren't you afraid that uncle will do something? He's a very eligible bachelor who could be smart as a tack."

Leah blinked, but there was no fear in her eyes. Instead, there was a flash of impulsiveness in her eyes.

Ernest's mind was overwhelmed by the rich and gorgeous color of her eyes.

He felt that Leah must have something big planned.

As expected, Leah said, "Of course I'm not afraid. Aren't I your girlfriend? Your uncle is our elder, and he won't be able to bring himself to do anything to me. Plus, he's a smart man. He won't touch me."

Leah did not care whether or not Ernest agreed with her actions. She took out her phone and called Essie right away.

The call was sure enough connected right away too.

Essie's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Hey, Leah. How are you?"

One could tell that Essie was a bright girl just from the tone of her voice on the phone.

Leah couldn't help but to laugh. "Aunt Essie, do you want to come to the Jones family's home? Mr. Yarbrough is here now, so hurry up."

"Are you talking about Zayne?" Essie immediately exclaimed.

Leah nodded immediately. "Yup, I'm talking about Mr. Zayne Yarbrough."

"Of course I'll come. Send me the address, I'll get a cab and be there right away." Essie sounded excited, and she walked quickly. However, she seemed to have bumped into something.

Leah reminded her in concern, "Take care, Aunt Essie. No rush. Mr. Yarbrough will be having lunch here, so you'll have time."

"I'm fine. I'm not in a hurry anyway, I have the rest of my life for him." Essie chuckled over the phone. "All right, Leah. Hurry and send me the address. I'm already downstairs, and I'll call a cab right away."

"Okay, be careful, Aunt Essie." Leah quickly hung up and sent her location to Essie.

Ernest sighed lovingly as he saw Leah acting so quickly.

"Look at how the both of you address one another. You call Essie your aunt. Don't you think it'll be funny if someone hears you?" Ernest teased.

"What does it have to do with anyone else? Aunt Essie and I think it's great to call each other like this." Leah did not find it odd at all.

It was interesting, actually.

"However, you haven't addressed my uncle as such." Ernest reminded.

Leah paused before she said, "I'll wait till he marries Aunt Essie."

Ernest burst into laughter. "I never expected that my great Uncle Zayne would be urged to marry by someone younger than him."

"Then he should feel honored that I care about his marriage so much. It's obvious that it's become a family problem. After all, your uncle's old now, but he still refuses to marry and settle down. What
