“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.

“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.
