"I've been here for a while. Well, I wanted to give you a surprise. What do you think? Are you surprised?" Yvonne sat up and asked with a grin.
Henry scratched her nose dotingly. "I was really surprised."
He thought it was a blind woman who had run into his office.
It had to be Mandy or something.
Yvonne didn't know that Henry had misunderstood her. She rubbed between her eyebrows. "Darling, I want some water."
"Okay," Henry replied and got up to go outside to pour some water for her.
After getting the water, he returned to the lounge and handed her the glass of water.
Yvonne took it with both hands. "Thank you, darling."
"Just thanking me with words?" Henry raised his eyebrows.
Yvonne narrowed her eyes. "What do you want then?"
She knew that this man always liked pushing his luck. He would always take advantage of her whenever he had the opportunity.
Henry pointed to his lips. "Kiss me."
Yvonne rolled her eyes silently, but obediently followed his order and kissed him.
Only then did Henry curl his thin lips with satisfaction. "Next time you come here, go rest at the lounge directly. Don't sleep outside, you might catch a cold."
"I know, I was just too sleepy at the time and I didn't have the energy to walk to the lounge. You know how much more tired I've gotten recently," Yvonne said helplessly while drinking water.
Henry touched her belly.
Her stomach was soft and flat-it was hard to imagine that she would have a child soon.
And this child would be their second fruit of love after Theo.
"What are you doing?" Yvonne slapped Henry's hand unhappily.
Henry smiled. "I'm touching the baby."
Yvonne rolled her eyes. "The baby is still a tiny dot now. How can you feel it?"
Henry put his hand back on his lap. "I know, but I just want to feel it."
Yvonne smiled when she heard that. "The baby hasn't developed yet. By the time the baby's four months old, there will be a slight fetal movement, and you'll be able to feel its existence then."
"Fetal movement?" Henry raised his brows slightly. It was obvious that it was his first time and he found the word intriguing.
Yvonne said, "Yes, it means the baby will start moving in my stomach."
Henry's pupils zoomed slightly.
He just found out that babies would move in the stomach.
He thought babies only moved after they were born.
It seemed that he had to learn more about pregnancy before he could take care of the baby.
He missed Theo's birth, so he didn't want to miss the birth of this child.
"What're you thinking about?" When Yvonne saw Henry's eyes drooping as if he was deep in thought, she couldn't help but wave her hands.
Henry's eyes flashed slightly and he snapped out of his daze. "It's nothing."
He grabbed her hand and said, "Well, do you want to g o home now? Shall I get someone to send you back?"
"I'm waiting for you." Yvonne stretched her body.
Henry squeezed her hand. "I can't leave. There are a few overseas clients coming over tonight and I need to socialize." "I see." Yvonne nodded, indicating that she knew."
Well, I'll go back first then. Come back early tonight and don’t drink too much."
"Okay." Henry nodded.
Yvonne pushed the blanket away and prepared to get out of bed.
Henry crouched down, picked up the shoes on the ground, and put them on for her personally.
Yvonne was not surprised by his action. Instead, she sat on the edge of the bed and watched him put her shoes on her.
It was obvious that she had gotten used to him putting on her shoes for her.
"Okay." Henry stood up after he helped Yvonne put on her shoes.
Yvonne also got off the bed and stepped on the ground.
Henry handed her bag to her and took her hand before walking out of the lounge.
When he arrived at the office outside, Henry called an assistant over.
