Chapter 173

Kevin was angry and she understood why but she still didn’t want him to do anything stupid. Christian came running back up and Renee went to stop him. She didn’t want him to see Kevin sitting beside her, especially as angry as he was. Kevin put his hand on her thigh and dug his fingers in a little to stop her.

“Mommy! Will you push me on the swing?” Christian yelled as he ran up to them.

Kevin interrupted her as he said, “Would you mind if I pushed you? You remind me so much of my son. I wish I could spend time with him.”

“Where’s your son, Mr. Alex? I’m sure he wants to spend time with you, too.”

“Unfortunately, my son doesn’t know who I am. His mother took him from me.”

“Why? Didn’t you want to be his daddy?”

“I want that very much but it’s complicated. His mother is with a man who scares her so I can’t be around.”

“You should whoop him, Mr. Alex. My daddy wouldn’t let anyone take me,” Christian said as he crawled into Kevin’s lap.
