CHAPTER 103

One step forward, and two steps back. That's how I'm feeling right now where Quinn is concerned. I shouldn't have gotten upset with her because she was trying to help, but I wish she would have come to me first. I know I've always questioned whether or not Holden is really mine even after paternity was verified, but it's already been a year and I love the little guy with everything I've got.
