Chapter 108
"Your name tonight is Kate, Katherine Grant."
"Katherine Grant?" Lydia was shocked when Henry mentioned another woman, and was even more blown away by the fact that the said woman had the same surname as him!
’Wait, does that mean he is already married?’ Lydia wondered. ’No, there is no way he’s married. He is Henry Grant. He doesn’t fall in love.’
"Yes, your name is Katherine Grant," Henry said. "And you are my wife."
"Your wife?!" Lydia gasped. This one was the most unrealistic of all the kinds of made-up bullshit that Henry told her.
There was no way that Henry Grant, the notorious playboy who couldn’t even keep a relationship for more than a month, would suddenly be a married man.
’Could it be that he is stuck in a political marriage?’ Lydia wondered. ’I know he comes from an old-money family. So political marriages like those on TV shouldn’t be uncommon, right?’
Lydia thought about it for a moment and quickly rejected the idea, ’No, that’s not possible. If he’s trapped in a loveless marriage, he wouldn’t force me to use his wife’s name.’
To be honest, Lydia was uncomfortable with the condition that Henry had just set. She felt Henry was only using her to vent his frustration for an unknown reason.
But before she could voice out her disagreement, Henry suddenly held her chin. He leaned to check on her and said, "Yes, you’re Katherine Grant tonight. You have eyes more brilliant than the golden sunset, flowing red hair that I sways when the wind blows gently through it, and a sweet and sincere smile that makes me fall in love every time I see it."
"You are my Kitty, the woman I love..." As Henry said this his mind got blurry, and he began to imagine this woman in front of him was truly Kate.
