Chapter 1640

Annie let out a sigh. "Even if I went back, I wouldn't get to see the kid. Who knows where her dad's taken her off to this time."

Asher had come over just to catch a glimpse of his daughter, but Conner grinned, shameless as ever. "That's gonna cost you."

Asher shot him a look. "Keep it up and I'll bring out the heavy artillery. Don't test me."

Conner just smirked. "Try it, and my girl will never call you godfather again."

Asher jabbed a finger at him. "You just wait. Mars is going to give me a little girl too."

Conner perked up. "Wait, Mars is pregnant?"

Asher rolled his eyes. "You're living under a rock. Milka came back already."

Conner scoffed. "... You're the clueless one. And let's be real, you don't even have a daughter."

Asher looked like he was ready to throw down. "Don't push me, man. Keep it up and I'll make sure I have a daughter too."

Conner grinned wider. "Yeah, right, old pumpkin. Even if you did, no way she'd be cuter than mine."
