Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 559

Upstairs, Christina was sitting up in the bed with a little baby in her arms. Christina’s face was slightly pale.

Perhaps she had just been discharged from the hospital and had yet to

recover.

Joseph took a pillow and placed it behind Christina’s back. Just as he was about to apologize, Christina stopped him. “Joseph, go out first. I’ll talk to them.”

When he heard this, Joseph did not move. Seeing that he did not move, Christina smiled and gave him a reassuring smile. “Go. I’ll talk to Dad and Mom alone.”

Seeing her smile, he agreed. “Angie, Charlie, I’ll go down first. Call me if you need anything.”

Angie replied, “Aye. Alright.”

The door closed. Only Christina, Angie, Charlie, and a baby who could not speak remained in the room.

Christina was not in a hurry to explain the lie she had told. Lying was not allowed in the Yamin family, especially when it came to deceiving their parents. “Do you want to see your grandson first or listen to the explanation first?

“I have to clarify it in advance. I’m the mastermind behind the deception. It has nothing to do with Joseph and my in-laws. They just listen to me.”

Her in-laws were really nice. Christina didn’t want her parents to misunderstand them.

Angie’s gaze was fixed on the little baby in her daughter’s arms. She had wanted to hug the baby for a long time, but she had to put on an angry face. “I’ll hug him while you explain.”

“Come! Let Grandma carry you. Look, Charlie! Look at how handsome our grandson is. How many girls will he charm in the future?”

Charlie also came closer to take a look. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and deepened. He looked at his daughter with heartache. “Lie down. Don’t sit up. It’s not that we want to blame you. It’s just that, why didn’t you tell us about such a big thing as you giving birth? You’re too strong-willed.”

Christina still did not lie down. She glanced at her mother, who was

teasing the child. “I can’t control the baby from coming out in a hurry. Besides, it’s too late to inform you when the water broke. I’ll still be done giving birth even if you rush over. Instead of making you anxious, I might as well let you come and see the surprise yourself.”

The analysis was logical. Since they couldn’t be there when she was giving birth, all they could do was wait outside and be anxious.

Besides, Christina was not alone when she gave birth. After the anesthesia, Joseph accompanied her. Joseph chatted with her the entire time to divert attention from her nervousness. She listened to him quietly.

He had changed from a domineering man to someone gentle in an instant. Afraid that she would be nervous, Joseph chose to keep talking to her. The man, who was not very talkative to begin with, started talking about when he was young, to marrying her, and then about their future. He did not stop at all the whole time. Even now, the memory was still vivid in her mind. She was extremely touched. When she was alone, she still thought about the few hours in the delivery room. The way Joseph had looked at her gently gave her a sense of security. Her face was reflected in his eyes. At that moment, she felt that it was worth it to be a man who could switch between being domineering and gentle.

“When I ask you one question, you always have ten questions waiting to be explained. It’s a real loss to the world of lawyers that you’re not a lawyer.'”‘

When she saw her grandson, Angie was in such a good mood and could not get angry at all. She also was in the mood to tease her daughter.

Although what she said was the truth, Charlie still hoped that his daughter would not hide it from them in the future. He said sternly, “Christina, there can’t be a next time. Even if your mom and I can’t accompany you, we can still take care of you immediately when you come out.”

”

Christina automatically ignored her mother’s teasing. “Alright. I’ll pay attention in the future. If I have a second child, I’ll bring you over a month in advance.”
