My Baby's Daddy

Chapter 203

“I will,” Elliot promised solemnly with a nod. He understood where Nigel was coming from, and the reverse was also true.

“What if you marry her tonight and she tells you that she doesn’t want any more kids? Will you choose to respect her decision?” Nigel went on to ask, wishing desperately that Elliot could do all the things for Anastasia that he couldn’t.

Once again, Elliot nodded and said, “I will respect every single one of her thoughts and decisions.”

Nigel’s gaze was piercing as he eyed his cousin somberly. “Also, do you promise that you’ll protect her, take care of her, and love her forever?”

Elliot could tell how much Nigel loved Anastasia. As his heart sank, he clapped a hand on Nigel’s shoulder. “Nigel, you’ve known me since we were kids, and you know what I’m like as a person.” An apologetic look flashed in his eyes as he added quietly, “I’m sorry, Nigel.”

They had been as close as brothers since they were little, and now that they were in love with the same woman, it couldn’t be easy for Nigel to let go.

Nigel, on the other hand, leaned against the balcony rail behind him as a bitter smile played on his lips. “You don’t have to apologize. I know Anastasia has always seen me as nothing more than a friend, and there are far worse things than to see you treat her right and love her in all the ways I can’t.”

Upon hearing this, Elliot reached out to pat his shoulder, but he couldn’t find the words to comfort him.
