wcf, cookie

I have below codes and I don't know why the error is still occurred (see attached).
all I want to do is use the WCF addCookie to add cookie into the client browser.

wcf:
public string AddCookie(string cookieName, string cookieValue, int cookieLiveInHour)
{
HttpCookie myCookie = new HttpCookie(cookieName);
myCookie.Value = cookieValue;
myCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddHours(cookieLiveInHour);
HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies.Add(myCookie);
return "Added";

}

aspx
string addCookieEmail = ServiceGeneric.AddCookie("someName", Request.Params["email"],12);

error:
See attached

Hello,

The cookie may exist, but to get them you need to have a page, a request from the client and the connection with their browser so to been able to read the cookies, that lives on the browser.

If you make this call from inside a thread, or a process, or on the end of the Page, or anywhere outside the Page, then the HttpContext.Current is null, and/or the HttpContext.Current.Request is null.
