True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 1959

Gary didn't let the butler in. He took the trays himself.

Gary glanced at the room next door and asked, "Did you send these to Ernest and Leah as well?"

The butler replied, "Master Ernest has not asked for the soup yet, but we've already prepared their portion."

Gary gazed deeply towards their door, wondering what they were up to all this while without asking for the soup.

He then smiled at the butler. "You should deliver theirs now."

The butler was taken aback. "Wouldn't I be disturbing Master Ernest when he didn't ask for me?"

"Why would you be disturbing him? We've been on the mountain for so long, we need to keep ourselves warm. The soup is the best thing we could ask for. Just do it." Gary then closed his door.

The butler was still hesitating.

He gave the chef a look before walking away.

Meanwhile, when Ernest and Leah got back to their room, they met each other's eyes before bursting into laughter.

Ernest smiled and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Me? What are you laughing at?" Leah asked in return.

They laughed again without explaining. It was as if they already understood why.

Leah then said to Ernest, "You explain first."

Ernest cleared his throat and said, "I just find it funny that Gary was in a worse state than us, yet he wanted to tease us."

"I know." Leah couldn't hold back her laughter. "I find it hilarious too."

Hearing her cheerful and bright laughter, Ernest couldn't stop smiling either.

Leah then stared at him in a daze. His smile was growing wider. The young man who was quiet and elegant was becoming more vivid and bright recently.

She got a little emotional.

He belonged to her; this man who was outstanding in almost every aspect, from his appearance and knowledge to his skills.

Leah was touched and called out, "Ernest."

Ernest was startled. The next second, there was something shining in his eyes.

Leah stepped forward, took his arm and said, "Let's go take a shower."

Ernest was stunned again. His smile froze as he fixed his gaze on Leah. She was gorgeous, especially with how much she was blushing.

Ernest narrowed his eyes and with a swift move, carried Leah to the bathroom.

Amidst the sound of running water, Leah could no longer restrain herself.

Ernest held her in his embrace as the water washed down on them.

Their eyes were full of joy as they stayed together like that.

After a long time, they were finally done with the shower.

While they were still in the shower and the water was still flowing, there was a knock at the door.

Ernest frowned and whispered in Leah's ear, "I wonder who is it that's killing our vibe."

Leah was so exhausted that she mumbled, "Maybe it's the warm soup. It's a little cold. Let's just help ourselves to it."

"I'll take you out." He put the bathrobe on for her.

'TH stay here. You should answer the door." Leah pushed him gently. "I want to get dressed first just in case it's your brother."

"You're smart." Ernest kissed her on the forehead before walking out.

After opening the door, he was startled to see that the butler and chef were waiting outside with the warm soup. He quirked a brow without saying anything.

The butler immediately smiled. He could tell that Ernest was not happy with their presence. "Master Ernest, Master Gary asked for us to send the warm soup to his room, he requested for us to send the soup to your room as well."

Hearing the butler's explanation, Ernest finally understood that it was all Gary's doing.

Ernest could also figure out what Gary was thinking. He glanced at the butler. "Sure, come in then."
