‘After a moment, she sobbed, “I don’t want to burden you. The baby will bear the Douglas surname. How can | let it hinder you for the rest of your life?” “I'm willing to make that commitment.

Determined to solidify their marriage, Darwin resolved to have another child with Serenity once the current baby arrived.
