Mr. Jones Be Gentle (Grace) novel Chapter 1908

Leah nodded and stood in front of Ernest's desk. She didn't move for a long time. Her eyes were fixed on one spot, looking as if she was lost in deep thoughts.

Ernest turned on the computer and looked for the materials that he saved in the past. Sure enough, he did not delete any of them.

He opened the files and printed two copies of them.

The printed paper came out from the printer bit by bit. There were more than a hundred pages of materials and it would need some time to print them all out.

While waiting, Ernest turned around and found that Leah was in a daze. He was very surprised.

His gaze deepened as he looked in the direction of the bookshelf.

There was no doubt that Leah must have seen something that made her so sad at the moment.

Ernest turned around and continued to look at the materials.

Leah quickly turned to look at him and walked

towards him.

Standing in front of the printer, Leah took a look at the materials which was printed very clearly. She was very surprised and asked, "Did your room always have a printer? This printer is several years old already, right?"

"I bought it when I was in high school." Ernest added, "I didn't expect it to be still working.”

Leah put down the materials. "It's only been a few years. Of course it'll work."

Ernest was stunned and looked at Leah again.

Leah didn't look at him but just said, "I'll go downstairs and walk around the garden. You can come to me after it's done printing."

"It'll finish soon. Wait for me," he said.

Leah took a look at him and said, "I want to go down and walk around now. Your garden is very pretty, and the air is fresh."

Ernest groaned softly, then nodded and said, "Okay, you can go then."

Leah went downstairs. Very quickly, she reached the foot of the stairs.

She took a deep breath and saw Gary sitting alone in the garden's sun room. Celeste was nowhere to be seen.

She was stunned, but she still walked towards the

sun room.

Gary smiled when he saw Leah. "Why did you come down alone?"

Leah also smiled and said, "Ernest is printing the materials now, and I came down to enjoy the scenery. Where is Celeste?"

"She headed upstairs," Gary said.

"Oh." Leah also smiled.

She did not sit down, but continued to walk slowly. Looking at the flowers in the sun room, they did not lose their colors because of the winter.

They were still blossoming in full, in the sun room. It was truly pretty.

Leah squatted down in front of a mimosa. Looking at the mimosa, she stretched out her hand and touched the leaves. Almost instantly, the mimosa's leaves closed.

She exclaimed in surprise, "It's really a mimosa."

Gary glanced at her and his sharp eyes seemed to have caught on to something. He said, and it sounded as if there was hidden meanings behind his words, "Yes, that's mimosa. Isn't it cute?"

Leah nodded, and her words also sounded like there was hidden meaning behind them. "That's right. Mimosas are indeed very cute. Once you touch it, it'll become shy, like a shy and timid lady."

Gary raised his eyebrows and looked at Leah. "What? Don't you think you're a lady?"

Leah laughed. She turned around to look at Gary and said, "I'm a tough girl. How can I be considered a gentle lady? Your girlfriend is a gentle lady."

Gary nodded. "Indeed, there's no denying that Celeste is indeed a lady."

"She's like mimosa. Just one look and you'll fall for her." Leah looked at the mimosa again and asked softly, "Gary, do men all like gentle girls?"

Gary's eyes became sharper, but he asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Leah thought of what Ernest and Liam had said at the gym in London.

Gary's girlfriend was Celeste, and she remembered that both Ernest and Liam had fallen for her before. It made Leah feel that girls had better be gentler.

"I'm just curious." Leah turned around and smiled at him. "I'm going out for a walk."

She then walked out of the sun room.

Gary could tell that Leah had something on her mind.

Perhaps Leah and Maria were the same. They were the kind of people who could not hide their worries from their faces. That was why their emotions were so easy to read.

He almost could tell at a glance that Leah had something on her mind. Furthermore, he had discovered it only after she went upstairs earlier.

He squinted at the window upstairs.

As expected, standing in front of the window and looking downstairs, Ernest was staring at Leah in a daze.

Gary shrugged his shoulders. His instincts told him that the matter might have something to do with Celeste.

At that time, Ernest was holding the textbook in his hand.

The book turned to the page with the portrait of Celeste.

He looked at the side profile portrait of Celeste in the painting and felt annoyed.

Leah must have seen it, which was why she reacted that way.

After reading through the textbook for a while, he also felt upset and annoyed. He had never expected that his reckless behavior during his youth would affect his current girlfriend.

He put the book back. He stood by the window and saw that Leah was already downstairs. She seemed to also have said a few words to Gary.

He stood by the window, looking down, and Leah soon left the sun room.

She was in the yard. The wind was cold and bitter.

However, she didn't feel cold at all. She stood there alone, which made his heart ache looking at her like that.

This girl was torturing herself.

"I thought it was just Celeste who's always worried about things. I didn't expect all of you girls to be like this," Gary said. It was rare for him to say so much.

Leah saw that Gary was being kind and wanted to clear her mind.

She understood his intention and looked at Gary with a smile. "Thank you, Gary. I know you're comforting me, but there are actually some things that I'm just overthinking about. It's actually nothing."

After that, she smiled embarrassedly.

Although it had passed a long time ago, she would still feel disappointed when she faced it again.

Gary could tell that Leah was also trying her best to adjust herself. Perhaps it was because Ernest once had a crush on Celeste that bothered her so much.

"There is no need to be hung up on it. It is good to let it go," Gary said.

"Mm, that's right. It's good to let it go." Leah also laughed and became much quieter.

At that time, Ernest and Celeste came out of the house together.

Leah's gaze froze when she saw the scene.

Gary's eyes narrowed too.

He suddenly smiled and asked Leah, "Leah, look, my girlfriend is walking with your boyfriend. Do they look like a match?"

Leah was stunned and shook her head. "No." "Why not?" Gary asked.

"That's because I know Celeste is your girlfriend." Leah smiled.

Gary asked again, "What if we don't have anything to do with each other? Do you think they are a good match?"

Leah looked at them carefully and said, "No."

Gary smiled. "That's right."

"Some people's auras are naturally not meant to be intertwined," Leah said with hidden meanings behind her words, "Even if they had feelings towards each other, they are still not suitable for each other, and still will not be together in the end."

Gary immediately understood. "If they are not fated, it just can't be forced."

Leah muttered to herself, "Yet, for something like fate, who can be sure if it is fated or not? No one will know what the outcome will be if it's not the end."

"Leah, you studied law," Gary spoke in a deep voice.

Leah was stunned for a moment before she suddenly burst into laughter. "Yes, I'm being sentimental. You're right. Law students should not judge with their emotions. No matter what the outcome is, one must be prepared for the three potential situations of a lawsuit. Winning or losing, reconciliation or mediation."

Gary looked at Leah again and felt deeply that she was actually a little pessimistic deep down.

"You should not think like this," Gary said.

Leah smiled.

Ernest and Celeste came up to them, and he looked at Leah and Gary with a complicated expression. Then, he asked Gary in surprise, "Shouldn't think what?"

Leah shook her head, expressing that she did not know what it was about.

Gary said, "Leah is a little pessimistic. Ernest, I think you'd better take good care of your girlfriend."
