He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband-Chapter 449

Henry felt a relief that Kate had truly forgiven him. He kissed her for the last time before picking his phone from the table and suggesting, "Why don’t we call my Mom? I’m sure she will be happy knowing her first grandchild has been born."

Kate chuckled, "You make it sound like we’ll have more children in the future."

"Of course we will!" Henry exclaimed. "We will marry once everything has been settled, and I’m going to buy a mansion not far from Vernon’s so our children can play with their cousins.

Henry’s idea entertained Kate, so she let it slide and smiled.

Henry scrolled through the number to find Dahlia’s number and called her;

—

"Yes, Son, do you need something?" Dahlia asked on the phone.

"Mom, I have good—no, great news!" Henry said excitedly.

"Great news? Did you finally reconcile with Kate? You know that’s the best news you can give me, right?"

"Not only that, I have something even better," Henry said proudly. He placed the phone near Kate’s ear and nodded at her, telling his beloved to tell Dahlia about the great news.

"Good morning, Dahlia," Kate said on the phone, and Dahlia gasped instantly.

"K—Kate? Katherine? Are you with Henry right now?" Dahlia asked as she thought she must’ve been dreaming right now. She had been spending so many nights pondering how amazing it would be if Kate and Henry could reunite so Dahlia could visit Kate without feeling guilty.

"Yeah, I’m with him," Kate replied. She glanced at her son in her arms and added, "With Theo as well."

"Theo?"

"Your grandson, Mom," Henry replied. "We’re in the hospital right now. Kate just gave birth to a healthy baby boy."

Dahlia’s eyes widened, "I—Is that true? You’re not joking, right, Henry? You know I’ve been waiting for my first grandchild."

"Of course not, Mom. I’ll send you a photo and the hospital location after this. You can come anytime you want."

"Oh, send it to me, I’ll go immediately!" Dahlia said excitedly.

Beep.

Henry was happy with his mother’s excitement. He hung up the call and stepped back to take a picture of his beloved.

"Smile to me, honey," Henry said while aiming the camera at Kate who was still breastfeeding their son.

Kate smiled at the camera. She looked exhausted but also had a certain charm that made Henry swallow his saliva.

’Is it wrong if I’m already thinking about our second child right now?’ Henry wondered as he pressed the shutter.

He sent the picture to his Mom and then sent the location of the hospital, expecting her to come immediately.

Henry pocketed his phone when a flash of lightning stunned them for a second, followed by a loud thunder.

Kate turned her head and saw the heavy morning rain. Her VIP ward was located on the ground floor, so she could see the flowers getting washed by the rain.

Kate sighed, "Can you close the window, Henry?"

"Sure," Henry slid the window shut. But he forgot to lock it when Kate had a request out of the blue;

"Henry, I want to eat a medium-rare steak with barbecue sauce," Kate said. "Oh, and boiled bitter gourds."

"Eh? Steak?" Henry shifted his attention immediately. He checked his watch and showed it was only seven in the morning. "I can call my friend who owns a restaurant in the downtown area to prepare a steak in the morning, but you might need to wait for at least an hour or more because it’s very early, and this hospital is a bit far from New York City."

"That’s fine," Kate nodded. "I’m just hungry and craving for steak right now."

Henry scratched his head. He didn’t know if Kate’s craving was because she had just given birth or if she simply wanted a steak early in the morning.

Nevertheless, Henry was more than eager to make her happy, so he opened the door and told Michael, who stood on guard outside, "Michael, I want you to go downtown right now."

"Huh?" Michael frowned. "What for? You know it’s quite far from here, right? I’ll have to drive for about thirty minutes to reach downtown."

"That’s fine, now go to Paul’s restaurant. I’ll contact him while you’re on your way," Henry said.

Michael looked at the window and saw the heavy rain, "The heavy rain will slow me down even more."

Michael didn’t want to leave Kate alone for a long time. He was worried that something might happen, just like how they got ambushed by Marlon’s men before.

"Don’t worry, I’m here with her," Henry said. "This is for her, not for me. She wants a steak in the morning."

"Alright then," Michael nodded, knowing it was Kate’s request. He dared not argue more because Kate had just given birth and probably craved something.

"Where’s Mai, by the way?" Henry asked as he stuck his head to look around the corridor.

"She left at midnight after seeing the baby. She said she still has a lot to do in the office and will visit after work," Michael explained.

"Okay, you should go now. I don’t want Kate to wait for too long."

Michael excused himself and left Henry and Kate alone. Henry closed the door and returned to Kate’s side.

"Michael is on his way to the steakhouse. It’ll take a while, but maybe we can reheat the steak in the hospital somehow," Henry said.

"I don’t mind a cold steak, really. I’m just craving for it for some reason," Kate giggled. She leaned on her bed while breastfeeding Theo. "Henry, I think you should get yourself a coffee. Maybe talk to the nurse at the front desk if they have a pantry for it. You look exhausted."

It was true that Henry hadn’t slept since yesterday. He was on guard because he was scared that Erin or Sarah would pop out somewhere and attack Kate and their baby.

"I will stay here with you. I don’t want to lower my guard—"

"—darling, it’s fine," Kate assured, patting Henry’s chest. "Go and get yourself a cup of coffee, at least. I don’t want you to faint while I can’t even get up and walk to help you."
