My Second Husband novel Chapter 779

That night, Tina did not return to the ward. She followed the nurse to every other ward for an entire night to learn how to take care of patients.

When Christopher woke up the next day, he saw a glass of warm water on his bedside table.

"I'll help you wash up first, then you can drink this glass of warm water."

Christopher looked at Tina curiously, just to see her walking away swiftly, then only did he mumble a response.

Once that was done, she went to get him breakfast.

"I bought these from the Vigilant Vegan Restaurant; here's your favourite red bean porridge, and there's tofu jelly. Have a taste."

Christopher frowned and asked, "Vigilant Vegan Restaurant is so far from here. When did you go there?"

"It didn't take too long, I just took a cab!"

He didn't believe her. Looking up, he saw the dark circles around her eyes, and his brows instantly furrowed.

"Did you not rest last night? And where did you learn all these things from?"

Tina's face filled with dissatisfaction as she returned, "I'm not stupid, is there something that I can't learn if I put my mind into it? Alright, let's not talk about this. Do you want to eat, or not?"

Christopher nodded, "I'll eat!"

Upon hearing this, Tina finally smiled, "That's more like it. Have this porridge."

"You take a seat too, let's eat together."

Tina nodded. She had made up her mind. Since Christopher would rather pretend that he couldn't have kids for her sake, she couldn't just leave him.

She would stay by his side for the rest of her life to make it up to him.

Christopher could clearly sense that Tina's mood was getting better and better. The burden in his heart felt like it was finally being lifted.

On the third day in the afternoon, Christopher and Tina watched TV after dinner.

The door of the ward was pushed open from outside, and Anthony walked in with a smile.

"Christopher, why didn't you tell me about this huge incident?"

Christopher frowned as he replied, "Get out, I don't want to see you."

Anthony instantly started clicking his tongue, "You're in this state, and yet you still have the audacity to act cocky in front of me. I've found out about everything. I had been wondering, why did you suddenly leave the Gellert family without saying anything? Was it because you knew that you had no hopes of gaining the inheritance? That's true, you're infertile, so what inheritance could you even hope to get? Even if you die in the future, no one would be able to inherit it from you!"

Rage welled up within Tina. She glared fiercely at Anthony.

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Tina, why should I? The both of you have been married for a few years already, right? Where's your child though?"

Tina's heart throbbed, causing Anthony to gloat again.

"Sorry, Christopher, my wife is pregnant. However, you don't have to worry about the company. After all, your elder brother, I, will be in charge of the company in the future. After you get well, I won't mistreat you. There's still an old mansion in the south; it's yours, I won't fight with you for that. I'll also give you one percent of the company's shares. In the future, you can bring Tina on a vacation anywhere; all you have to do is take your dividend every year!"

As Tina listened to him, the angrier she felt.

"You're not the one who has brought the Gellert family's business to its success today. Christopher has contributed so much, so what gives you the right to plan his future? Why would he agree to your plans?"

"What right do I have?" Anthony smiled brightly.

"The right that I have as the head of the Gellert family, and that my wife is going to give birth to the family's first grandson! If you're not happy about this, then have your own child too! Oh, I forgot, Christopher can't..."

Anthony's smile widened. Out of nowhere, Tina mustered her strength, suddenly grabbed an ashtray beside her and smashed it down on Anthony's head.

"Nonsense!"
