Kate was stunned by the sudden confession. Her body stiffened when Henry's warm breath tickled around her earlobe and neck.
She was caught off guard by his indirect confession, and she didn't know if it was right for her to say yes, though she wanted it.
The idea of having a complete family was also in her mind, but that was more like a teenage dream.
She was raised in a conservative family to be a traditional housewife, and she thought she could have it with Matt.
She'd be lying if she said that Henry's invitation didn't lure her. But she still thought that Henry was rushing things. Henry's love and affection felt so dreamy that it seemed unreal to Kate, especially after she got hurt by a man with zero quality.
Henry felt like a daydream, and she feared he'd leave her after she decided to give in.
Henry's gaze darkened once he realized that Kate didn't seem to reciprocate his indirect confession. What he said was true.
