He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband
Chapter 384

Chapter 384: Chapter 384

"Wha—" Michael was caught off guard by the question. His cheeks visibly reddened, and he began to stutter. "I—We—uh... we’re doing great. We bonded so much for a month. This villa is basically our dating spot."

Henry chuckled, "That’s good. At least you’re enjoying your time here. But you can’t relax. Things will get very difficult once we’re out of this villa."

Michael nodded.

They discussed a few more topics before Henry finally returned to his room. He couldn’t wait to snuggle with Kate and kiss her while she was asleep. He developed a new habit as he spent more time with Kate.

As Henry opened the door, his heart jumped when he saw Kate sitting on the bed with her arms crossed. She peered at Henry and said, "Where were you?"

"Uh... toilet?" Henry replied quickly to make it less suspicious.

"We literally have a toilet in this room, Henry," Kate rolled her eyes.

Henry closed the door behind him and kneeled in front of his beloved. He put his hands on her knees and said, "Well, I talked with Michael just now."

"About?"

...

Of course, Henry didn’t want to tell Kate about the lost contact between them and Faro. Kate was already six months pregnant and didn’t need any added stress.

So Henry replied, "I was just talking about your safety since we... we are about to move out."

Kate’s eyes widened, "Is it the time already?"

"Yes. It’s been a month since you’re here. And the situation in my new company has stabilized. You can go to New York with me, though I still want you to be careful and not to leave the penthouse."

"Do you plan to lock me up in the new place until I give birth?"

"... is it wrong if I say yes?" Henry asked. He looked up to Kate. His eyes were glimmering with hope as he continued to persuade his beloved. "Kitty, you know how dangerous it is out there. Marlon’s men will continue trying to find a way to hurt you, and even with my protection, you need to watch your back as well."

"But I need to handle the author signing process," Kate sighed. "You can’t just keep me cooped up for three more months. I will get too stressed out."

...

Henry sighed. As expected, it was difficult to change Kate’s mind.

She was stubborn, and he didn’t know why she got even more stubborn once she reached the late stage of pregnancy.

Was it hormones?

Perhaps.

Nevertheless, Henry didn’t want to fight Kate when she got upset easily. He didn’t want to distress her.

"Alright, but I won’t let you work nine-to-five in the office. You can only go to the office when an author is present, either for signing a contract or for contract discussion. The rest can be done online, got it?"

"Got it," Kate smiled. "But what should I do if I want to go somewhere in Downtown New York while you’re still at work?"

"Then you’ll be accompanied by Michael or Mai—or both," Henry said firmly. "There is no way I’ll let you go out without supervision."

"You’re treating me like a baby..."

"But you are my babe, right?" Henry said playfully. He got up and kissed Kate on the lips. "Besides, you’re carrying our child. I don’t want you to get hurt."

Kate couldn’t help but melt over Henry’s attentiveness. She allowed her man to kiss her lips, cheek, neck, and cleavage.

Kate bit her lower lip, trying to stop her moans, "W—We need to tell Dahlia about us leaving tomorrow. Since she’ll be all alone in this villa again..."

"I already told her yesterday. She already prepared everything for us to leave," Henry said.

His hands began to crawl on her hips, and he unbuttoned her pajamas. He stared at Kate’s stomach, which had gotten bigger as her pregnancy grew.

She looked ravishing, even more so when she was pregnant.

He breathed deeply to calm himself, "Have I ever told you that you look so beautiful?"

"Y—You said that many times," Kate replied.

"Well, you’re going to hear it again. Because damn, I never knew I had a thing for the pregnant you."

Henry began kissing Kate’s belly, and his lips went up to her breasts. Kate gasped. She tried to hold her voice to no avail.

"H—Henry, slow down. I don’t want to make too much noise," Kate pleaded.

"I’m sorry, Love," Henry unbuttoned his trousers while staring at Kate’s body with lust in his eyes. "Let’s just hope the wall is soundproofed."

**

Dahlia stared at Kate, and Henry stood in front of her, ready to leave the villa after staying here for a month.

They were already well-dressed, but Dahlia couldn’t help remembering how she woke up in the middle of the night after hearing loud moans from Kate’s room.

"I hope you two have a good soundproofing in the new apartment," Dahlia said. She looked at Henry and added, "You need to be more careful. Sex might not hurt the baby, but you might hurt Kate if it’s too rough."

Kate felt like she wanted to jump into the lake and drown herself. She was so embarrassed that she couldn’t look Dahlia straight.

Meanwhile, Henry grinned proudly from ear to ear until his teeth were showing.

"Sorry for the noises last night, Mom. It’s hard to hold it when we haven’t done it for a while."

Dahlia sighed, "Still, I will be lonely again in this villa. Do come and visit; don’t forget me here."

"Why don’t you come with us, Mom?" Henry offered. "It’s not like you’re trapped in this villa alone."

"I’m way too old to spend time in that busy city. I’ll die out of stress there," Dahlia replied. "But worry not. I’ve dispatched half of Hawthorne’s subordinates around your apartment. They will keep Kate safe."

"T—Thank you, Dahlia," Kate said.

"Things will be difficult in New York. But as long as you two are still in love, everything will be fine," Dahlia said while staring at Henry with warning. "Now go."
