However, Christopher couldn’t escape the family dinner slated for tonight. And deep down in his heart, he had dreaded the question of his wife to be which his father was sure to ask tonight. Thankfully, he has good news to share. And with that Christopher grinned widely, mouthing a greeting to his family members. “Good evening mom.
