Chapter 195: What''s The Issue?
Estelle whispered gently, “Maybe... he did that not because he wanted to torture you.”
“Then why else would he do it?” Reba retorted angrily, cing her hands on her hips.
“Furthermore, he once asked me to correct errors in a document. He should have pointed out all the
mistakes at once, but he didn’t! Whenever I presented the revised document to him, he would point
out another mistake and ask for further modifications. Consequently, I ended up making countless
revisions! It was incredibly frustrating! I reached my limit with his unreasonable demands, so I
dismissed him!”
“Then what are your ns regarding Henry’s adoption? Isn’t it stated that only married couples can
adopt children?” Estelle inquired.
Reflecting on the matter, Reba let out a sigh and replied, “Estelle, the adoption process for
Henry might be somewhat challenging.”
“What’s the issue?”
“The legal procedures for adoption are not a problem. Howard has agreed to assist me by entering
into a marriage with me. Once I have sessfully adopted Henry, we will proceed with a divorce.
However, the current hurdle lies in Henry’s reluctance to be adopted,” exined Reba.
Upon hearing this, Estelle furrowed her brow and inquired, “Why is that?”
Reba shook her head and responded, “It could be due to his depression. The loss of his mother
has profoundly impacted him, and he’s unwilling to embrace a new family. He’s truly a pitiful boy. His
father deserted both his mother and him when he was young. His mother struggled all these years
to earn money for his treatment, and he was progressing toward recovery. However,
unexpectedly...”
“s, Estelle, why is life so unjust? A genuinely kind individual endures serious ailments while an
immoral person can remain in good health despite multiple abortions and even manage to conceive
again!” Reba added with a touch of despair.
“Who knows?” she smiled bitterly, knowing that the bad person that Reba was referring to was
Gretchen.
“By the way, let me ask you something. Is Cristofer exceptionally fertile?” Reba inquired.
Estelle was shocked when hearing her question. “Why do you suddenly ask about this?”
“I just think that it’s amazing that both you and Gretchen got pregnant so easily, especially
Gretchen. I swear that I really heard the doctor say that she couldn’t be pregnant anymore. But
even so, Cristofer still made her pregnant! It’s incredible!”
“Maybe she got pregnant by luck,” Estelle said, looking a little embarrassed.
“Hmph. The two of them make a perfect pair, as they are both despicable individuals. Luckily, you
have Mr. Mysterious now. Once his identity is disclosed in the future, you will be Cristofer''s
sister-inw. I’m certain Cristofer will be utterly shocked when he finds out!” Reba remarked.
Suddenly, she glimpsed two figures at the gate of the outpatient building in the distance and then
said excitedly, “Haha, what a small world. I saw her again!”
Following her gaze, Estelle turned her head and saw Melody and Gretchen walk into the outpatient
building side by side.
“Estelle, there must be something wrong with her pregnancy. The doctor has said that she is sterile.
No matter how great Cristofer''s sexual capacity is, I don’t believe that she can create a medical
miracle. Let’s go and see what they want to do!” Reba pulled her instantly.
Estelle, who didn’t want to go with her, quickly said, “Reba, just let them go. I’ll go upstairs to
take care of my mother.”
“Auntie Aurora is currently spending time with her grandchildren, and the nurses will look after your
mother. You don’t need to worry about that. Remember,st time we encountered Gretchen at the
hospital, you didn’t apany me. This time, it’s crucial for you to witness firsthand what she
intends to do!” Reba urged.
Before Estelle could say anything else, Reba pulled her to the outpatient building.
“Gretchen and Melody appear to be quite familiar with this hospital. They even took the elevator
directly. They might have scheduled an appointment with the doctor,” whispered Reba as she
and Estelle discreetly positioned themselves behind a nearby pir.
Once the elevator doors closed, Reba and Estelle proceeded to approach the elevator. The
elevator monitor indicated that it had stopped on the fourth floor, where the gynecology and
obstetrics department was located.
“Is she here for a prenatal examination? Oh, no. Is she really pregnant? It doesn’t make sense!”
Reba said in surprise.
Estelle was not interested in it at all. “Reba, let’s go.”
“No,” Reba insisted. “My intuition tells me that there is something rather strange about her
pregnancy. Estelle, I suddenly think of a possibility!”
“What is that?” Estelle asked.
Reba then whispered in her ear.
Hearing Reba’s words, Estelle frowned and said, “How dare she! If Cristofer knows that...”
“She has always been so bold and unscrupulous, hasn’t she?” Reba said with a sneer. “Think
about it. All that she did in the past have been exposed to the public, and she is notorious in Hadale
now. If she leaves Cristofer, no other rich men will be willing to marry her. Therefore, she tries to
marry Cristofer by every means. And the only way to make Cristofer agree to marry her is to get
pregnant with his child. Beforehand, she reached out to Cristofer''s grandfather because she
believed he would convince Cristofer to marry her for the child’s sake, right?”
Estelle bit her lower lip and hesitated.
“Let’s go and see if she is here for an IVF treatment or not,” Reba urged her.

Inside the doctor’s office on the fourth floor, Melody retrieved a bank card from her handbag, ced
it on the desk, and slowly slid it toward the doctor.
“I’ve already told you that with your physical condition, it’s not possible for you to conceive a baby.
Even if you were to be pregnant, you would likely miscarry. Giving me money won’t change
that. I cannot assist you,” the doctor bluntly informed Gretchen.
“Doctor, we’re not aiming for the baby to be born. We simply want her to be pregnant,” Melody
smiled and rified.
“If you have no intention of having a baby, why go through the trouble of seeking IVF treatment? It
would simply be a waste of time,” questioned the doctor.
“We have our reasons, and all you need to do is perform the IVF procedure for her. There are over
two million dors in this card,” Melody stated matter-of-factly. N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
Once again, the doctor firmly declined without hesitation. “No, I cannot proceed with that.
Furthermore, IVF treatment necessitates the involvement of her husband’s sperm. Does her
husband have knowledge of her condition?”
“We cannot disclose this to her husband due to certain circumstances. Doctor, my daughter will
provide the egg. As for the sperm... you can use anyone’s,” Melody stated.
