Outside of Gellert family's house.

Christopher and the others still lived in the Gellert Manor. Since he came back today, Christopher had been sitting in the car and had not gone upstairs.

In the passenger seat, there was a diagnosis report from Eudora. He looked at it again and again, but he didn't dare to reach out to read it.

The night gradually darkened, and the phone rang. Tina's name appeared on the screen.

For the first time, Christopher did not answer it.

Then, the phone rang again. Christopher picked up the phone in a low voice.

From the other end, Tina's anxious voice could be heard. "Hubby, where are you? Did something happen to you? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?" Christopher's heart ached.

He said immediately, "Oh, I'm alright! I just drove past the entrance on the highway, so I had to make another round. I'll be home soon!"

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You scared me. I thought something happened to you. You should drive slowly! I've prepared your favorite dessert!" Christopher was always bullied by Anthony in the Gellert manor. A lot of food was prepared every day, but Christopher liked to eat none of them!

It seemed that Anthony knew what Christopher disliked the most, so he deliberately asked the chefs to cook those foods in particular!

Therefore, Tina would buy some ingredients every day and prepare some food that Christopher liked. Finally, some sense of comfort to soothe his cold heart! "Okay!" Christopher nodded.

After hanging up on the call, he reached his hand out to get the report. However, in the end, he did not take it out.

In the Gellert manor, Christopher saw Anthony and his wife sitting there as soon as he entered the hall.

Seeing that he was back, Anthony snorted unhappily.

"Christopher, you don't respect me anymore, do you? No matter what, you are still the vice president of the company. You went out during the meeting and didn't go back for the whole afternoon. What is it? Do you want the employees to laugh at me?"

Christopher frowned and said, "I don't want to talk about these things with you now. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

It might be because Christopher had been too tolerant recently. He was only doing so because Master Gellert had just passed on recently, and he did not want to make a scene and put everyone in an unsettling state of turmoil.

In addition, he had already been very upset today, and he could not stand it anymore.

His voice grew impatient, "Anthony, do you really have to pressure me like this today?"

Anthony laughed, "What do you mean by pressuring you? I'm your big brother. You should listen to me and do what I want you to do. Why? Do you want to rebel?"

As Anthony spoke, his fingers were about to poke Christopher's face.

Christopher grabbed his hand and spun it around with force. With a cracking sound, Anthony screamed like a slaughtered pig.

"Ah!!!"

His wife and servants rushed over, and Christopher shook him off.

"I told you. Don't annoy me anymore!"

After that, he went straight upstairs.

As soon as he reached the stairway, he saw Tina anxiously standing there with a worried expression on her face.

Christopher paused and asked, "Why did you come down?"

Tina frowned, "I heard a sound and knew that you were back, so I came out to take a look. Why did you fight with Anthony? Are you injured?"

Christopher could tell that she was anxious by her scanning him up and down, and then he realized that all the butlers who had grown up with him were on Anthony's side. Thinking of this, Christopher felt a lump in his throat.

As soon as he grasped Tina's fingers, he said, "I'm fine. I was the one who hit him. How can I get injured?"

Tina burst into laughter. Then, she quickly covered her mouth and muttered in a low voice.

"Anthony does need a good beating."

The couple returned upstairs with smiles. As soon as they entered, Tina immediately served the soup she had prepared.

"Have a try? I've been cooking it since I came back from Clearwater Bay, and it's been stewing for almost two hours!"

Christopher scooped some and took a bite. "It's delicious!"

"If it's tasty, I'll cook it for you tomorrow!" Tina smiled.

Thinking about her checkup, she was hesitant to tell Christopher. However, after thinking about it for a while, she decided to give up and talk to him about it when the results came out. However, when she thought of the children's clothing she had bought earlier, she felt happy again.

"Eat quickly. I'll show you something good after you finish eating."

"I'll eat while you show me!" Christopher said with a smile.

Tina thought that was also a good idea, so she turned around to get it.

"Look, these are all nice children's clothing. I've been selecting clothes for the whole afternoon in the mall. I really like them."

Christopher was stunned. Looking at those small pieces of clothes, his heart softened for no reason.

He had once thought that they would have a child, and the child would put on those nice clothes.

However now...

The more Christopher looked at those things, the more he felt that they were an eyesore.

He frowned subconsciously and said, "I don't want to see them anymore!"

Tina had not noticed him yet. She was still enjoying them herself.

"It's so pretty. Look at this little dress..."

"I said, that's enough!" Christopher suddenly roared.

Tina's hand shook, and the clothes in her hand fell to the ground, "Hubby, what's wrong?"

Christopher gritted his teeth, "I'm fine."

"No..." Tina was extremely sensitive. Children, who had grown up in an orphanage, were usually very sensitive. She could sense the joy and sorrow of others. Especially since he was her lover.

"Didn't you still like children two days ago? Why did you suddenly become like this? Is it because I haven't gotten pregnant yet, so you're angry? Hubby, don't be sad. I've gone to the hospital for a check-up. I'll see the results tomorrow. Don't be angry, okay?"

She was so careful that she was afraid that she would affect him.

Christopher felt a twinge of sorrow in his heart. He also regretted being so rash just now.

Pulling her into his arms, Christopher shook his head.

"It's not your problem. It's mine. It's my own problem."

Tina was puzzled, "What's wrong with you?"

"There is really something wrong with me!" Christopher said as if he had made up his mind. "I can't get you pregnant, so you don't have to work hard anymore! You don't have to go and check!" Tina's entire body shook, "Hubby, what nonsense are you talking about? How's that even possible? Which hospital did you go to? Should we try a different hospital? I don't believe it. How could it be?" The more worried she was, the sadder Christopher felt.

She was such a good girl. Why would the heavens punish her that way?

"Enough!" He deliberately raised his voice. "You're so annoying. Do you want everyone in this world to know about us? I said I went for a check- up, and that's it! Don't mention it again in the future!" Tina's footsteps came to a halt, and she froze on the spot.

After Christopher went to the bathroom, she suddenly sat on the bed.

She did not believe it. It must have been a mistake! Christopher was such a good person. How could it be that he was infertile?

No, she had to think of a way to replace out what was going on.
