Chapter 113
Henry smiled at her, and she noticed the exhaustion on Henry’s face. He looked sleepy and tired. It was probably because of the alcohol he had dreank as well, but he didn’t seem to be in a bad mood.
Henry patted his lap and said, "Come and sit here, accompany me, let’s watch the stars."
"..."
Kate slowly approached Henry and then sat at the edge of the bed instead, "You look tired, Henry. I think you should just sleep."
"I can’t hear you, Kitty," Henry replied. "Come closer so I can hear you."
’This trick again,’ Kate rolled her eyes. She disliked having to beat around the bush anyway. So she got up and sat on his lap without hesitation.
"Whoa—whoa," Henry reacts spontaneously. "Didn’t expect you to actually sit on my lap like this."
"What? You don’t like it? Alright then," Kate was about to get up from his lap, but he quickly held her waist to keep her on him, so she wouldn’t leave him.
"I was just surprised, but of course, I don’t want you to leave," Henry said. "Besides, I’m very happy that you are by my side. It’s really a lonely night without you."
"Though, this night would be even better if you rest your head here," Henry patted his pec, "You can rest your head here and let me embrace you, Kitty."
The alcohol had helped to make Henry bolder than usual, so he teased Kate, wanting to see to what extent Kate would accept his requests before she protested.
