Yvonne gently massaged her eyes. "It's not that. I was already feeling a little hungover when I woke up this morning after drinking too much last night. Plus I had another two glasses just now so that made it worse. I'll ask Sue to make some soup to relieve it."
After she said that, she got up and headed to the kitchen.
However, her foot got caught onto the sofa after taking a few steps.
She shrieked as she was caught off guard and began t o fall backward.
Henry's pupils contracted when he saw her falling and immediately grabbed onto her arm after placing his glass on the coffee table.
However, Henry had grabbed onto her a little too late. Instead of being able to pull her up, he was pulled down together with her and they both fell onto the ground. Luckily, neither of them were injured due to the carpet that absorbed most of the impact.
Henry had landed on top of Yvonne and she was slightly uncomfortable with the weight on top of her.
"U-um..." Her face blushed as she pushed the man's chest. "Could you get up please?"
Henry did not move and stared into her eyes instead.
She could feel her heart racing as she stared at Henry’s passionate gaze and her breathing became heavy. "You’re very heavy.”
She opened her mouth again.
This time, Henry lifted his upper body slightly but still did not stand up. Instead, he rested both his arms on the ground around Yvonne's body. "You...”
Before he could even speak, a shriek came from behind him.
Henry raised his eyebrow and turned to look in the direction the shriek came from to see Sue standing by the kitchen with a surprised look on her face.
"Sue!" growled Henry.
Sue gathered her emotions and awkwardly replied," Ahem... I was just coming out to pick up something.”
"And have you taken it?" asked Henry coldly.
Sue rolled her eyes. "Yes I have, I should return to my work now. I shall not interrupt the two of you then."
As she finished, Sue stifled her laughter and went back into the kitchen.
Silence fell in the living room again. Yvonne's face was now as red as a tomato.
She had never expected Sue to walk in and see the position they were in-Sue had even laughed at her. How was Yvonne supposed to face her now?
Henry looked at her and single-handedly removed her hand from her face and asked, "Why are you covering your face?"
"What do you think? Sue just saw what happened," scolded Yvonne, still blushing.
Henry snickered. "So what if she saw us? She's left already. Also, didn't she ask us to continue?"
"Continue?" Yvonne's eyes widened. "What are you intending to do?"
"What do you think?" asked Henry in return.
Yvonne’s eyes widened. "Are you thinking of doing it here?"
"Why not!" Henry exclaimed as he reached out for the glass of wine on the coffee table.
He then drank all the wine in the glass in front of her confused eyes.
As he finished, he placed the glass back onto the table, then used that hand to raise Yvonne's chin, forcing her mouth open, then lowered in to kiss her and slowly transferred the wine from his mouth to hers.
"Y-you...” Yvonne was stunned. The moment she realized what he was doing and wanted to speak, she had been choked by the sudden gush of wine flowing into her mouth. 1
Henry got up and looked at her, waiting for her to finish coughing.
When she was almost done coughing, he went in to kiss her again before she could scold him for forcing wine down her throat.
