Finally, she forced herself to stay calm, and said, “Just wait a minute, I’ll get myself some clothes.”
At that, she just opened the wardrobe and began rummaging.
But now that Henry was right here, she could not just tell him that she wanted a new nightgown. She didn’t want to seem like she had chosen such a sexy one on purpose and insist to get herself a new one just in his face. He might think she was trying to get his attention by making all the fuss, she thought.
Though she didn’t pick this one herself, but how could he know?
In no time, she found a matching bathrobe from the wardrobe and put it on.
The bathrobe fit well and reached all the way to her knees. As she tied the ribbon around her waist, her beautiful chest was also covered up. Only then did she regain a sense of safety.
Henry did not say a word all the time, but his gaze was unbelievably deep and steady. The residual bit of wine in the glass was gone as well.
“Done?”
