That Nana Mae could come back, but she better not look for trouble. If she looked for trouble, then she couldn't blame him.
Henry put down his mobile phone and went to look at Yvonne who was on the bed. Her mouth moved and her cold eyebrows softened. Then, he leaned over and kissed her forehead gently.
The next day, Yvonne finally woke up.
When she woke up, there was an arm around her waist, which made her unable to move.
She opened her eyes, turned her head over, and saw that it was Henry. She chuckled lightly.
Henry didn't open his eyes. He let go of his hands on her waist and sat up from the bed. "You're awake?"
Yvonne said, "Yeah. Good morning, hubby."
Henry lifted her chin and lowered his head to kiss her. "Good morning, darling."
Yvonne quickly covered her mouth to prevent him from kissing her.
Henry's eyes darkened. "What's the matter?"
Yvonne hummed, "I haven't brushed my teeth!"
The coldness in Henry's eyes disappeared and he smiled. "It's okay, I don't mind. I haven't brushed mine
either."
With that, he was about to take her hand away.
Yvonne wasn't as strong as he was, so he took her hand away with ease.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. At the same time, he took up the quilt with his other hand and covered himself and Yvonne.
As noon approached, Yvonne was lying beside him and her eyes were almost closed.
Henry hugged her. "Are you hungry?"
Yvonne rolled her eyes. "What do you think?"
She had been sleeping since she got on the plane yesterday. She hadn't eaten for almost a day and a night until now. Moreover, she was hungry when she woke up in the morning and she had no strength now.
Henry kissed Yvonne on the cheek, got up, took the phone beside the bed, and called the hotel reception for room service. "Hold on. I'll order lunch."
After ordering lunch, Henry put his phone away, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed. He bent down to carry Yvonne.
Yvonne widened her eyes. "What are you doing?"
Henry looked at her and answered, "I'll take you to a shower. The lunch should be delivered after the shower."
Yvonne shook her head and didn't want him to carry
her. "It's fine. I can do it myself."
Seeing Yvonne's reluctance, Henry pursed his thin lips, then looked at her with a smile. "Are you sure you can do it?"
Yvonne nodded without hesitation. "I'm sure!"
Henry was noncommittal and rubbed her hair. "Okay, stop making a fuss. Let me carry you."
This time, Yvonne didn't say anything else. She obediently stretched out her arms to let him carry her.
She didn't care anymore!
She thought that Henry would do something to her in the shower, but to her surprise, Henry did nothing to her in the end. He helped to shower her seriously, wrapped her in a towel, and carried her back to the room.
After carrying her back to the room, Henry went back t o the bathroom and showered himself.
Lunch was delivered when he came out of the shower. It was so lavish that he couldn't wait to eat it.
Henry handed Yvonne a pile of knives and forks." Let's eat."
Yvonne hummed and started eating after taking them.
