Chapter 401
Henry and Kate went silent after she had an ultrasound. Henry drove the car in silence while he glanced at Kate, who was in a bad mood next to him.
"Kitty, I—"
"You don’t want a son, do you?" Kate asked straight to the point.
Henry winced, and he shook his head, "No, it’s not that. I’d love a son. I’m just afraid that we won’t be able to take care of him."
"Don’t worry, I’m a very strict mother," Kate said. She remembered how she spoiled Erin so much that she became a total entitled bitch. "I won’t make the same mistake as I did with Erin."
Henry wanted to say that being a boy meant he’d be more prone to danger because of Marlon’s extreme craziness of wanting to have a male heir that he could control.
A perfect male heir who wouldn’t disappoint him, unlike Henry and James.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t say it because that might become a chain of questions about his true intention that would end their relationship.
Just like what he told her a month ago, if their relationship ended, then he preferred her to order his death so he would atone for his sin.
Henry put his hand on her belly and caressed it gently, "Don’t worry, Son. Papa love you, and will protect you from any harm," Henry said. He then looked at Kate, who was stunned by what he did, "And I hope you won’t annoy your Mama too much, or I’ll have to give you a time-out."
Kate slowly thawed once she saw how sincere Henry looked.
