Evangeline tried to sound nonchalant.

Truth was, Walter's comment had scared her more than she would admit.

The baby she was carrying was only there because her grandfather wanted it. The thought of having another was too overwhelming to even consider.

Cole was at that age where grandkids were his favorite thing, so he was all compliments for Walter.

However, that did not mean his worries were gone.
