Kapitel 280: 281

"Good" Delia said. "I have missed you all. All of you. So I mean what I said before, when you are feeling better, I'm inviting all of you to dinner at the house.

Jensen, Delia and Jonathan talked in hushed voices while Katherine pulled Tim closer and they talked about his school. All the while Jensen's hand rested lightly on her shoulder, his thumb caressing her collarbone beneath the pink satin.

When the discussion touched on Katherine's health, Jensen stated. "I have arranged for that nurse to stay with Katherine for a few days after she goes home. The doctor said she will be fit to travel in about a week, and I have a business trip to San Francisco. I want her to come with me" His expression was guarded as he looked down at her. "Will you come with me, Katherine?" he added softly.

Katherine stared at Jensen's intense face. He was asking for a commitment from her. He wanted her to acknowledge his possession in front of her family.
