“What do you ‘have to do’? Do you want me to have an abortion?” Garrett looked at her quietly and suddenly broke into a wide grin.
He hadn’t told Laney that on the way here, he had already decided on the names of the children.
Yes, children.
He hoped that Laney was carrying twins, even though there were never any twins in his family tree.
“Don’t say that, Laney.
I’ve never considered you or our unborn child a burden.
| would never ask you to have an abortion.
What | meant was that we can face this together.” Garrett spoke sincerely.
He seemed to want to say something more but stopped on a second thought.
After thinking about it for a while, he eventually decided to say it.
“You like me, right? And I like you.
So why can’t we be together? How would we know that we’re a bad fit if we don’t even try? Besides, we’re having a child together.
It wasn’t in our plans, but it was God’s will.
Do you really want to kill it?” Laney fell silent.

Could they really be together? She already had enough problems on her place.
And now, a baby? Laney suddenly felt that nothing she did would be the right decision.
Seeing the cogs in her brain turning, Garrett knew that she was hesitating.
“Since you haven’t decided yet, why don’t you come home with me first? Let’s take baby steps.
You’re alone in a strange land; how will you take good care of yourself and the baby?” Laney was still silent, at a loss as to what to do.
“Laney, I’m serious. If someday you really feel that you can’t live with me, then I’ll respect your choice and walk out of your life forever.
