Chapter 83

That same night he spent with Shela, he had just been diagnosed with a low sperm count

Logically speaking, the odds of her getting knocked up were pretty slim

But slim doesn’t mean impossible. That’s what he had thrown back at Phedra when she spoke up. And he didn’t expect that it actually happened

“Well, if that’s the case, then let’s take good care of it, Elgin said. “It’s my kid, and I’ll step up.”

“You sticking around?”

*Of course, I’m sticking around.”

Shela beamed, got up, and threw her arms around his neck. That’s awesome, Mr. Ramirez, I was worried… that you wouldn’t want the baby”

“Yeah You just focus on taking care of yourself, and leave the rest to me.

Shela nestled into his embrace, Mr Ramirez, you’re the best”

“I’ll take care of everything,” Elgin said “No one’s gonna stand in the way of you and the kid”
