  “Why?” I blurted out.

  She shrugged. “Well, I figured if we’re going to be living in the same town, he may as well know who you are. I don’t want people gossiping about who his father is. I want it all out in the open.”

  “The same town? What do you mean?” I asked.

  This could be very good and very bad. If she planned on sticking around, I would have a real relationship with my son. It also meant she knew something I didn’t about the farm. Had she found a way to keep it?

  “Jasper and I will be leaving New York and coming here to live.”

  “Oh.”

  “It isn’t right for me to deny Jasper his father forever. He deserves the opportunity to know you, especially since we’ll be right here.”

  “You’re moving back?” I clarified. I knew I sounded ridiculous, but my head was swimming from her confession. Maybe that was her plan: throw me off and then announce she was keeping the farm.

  “Yes,” she said, not explaining further.

  “Then we can share custody?” I asked hopefully.

  She smiled. It wasn’t a real smile, but one that said “step away or I will bite you.”

  “I’m not quite ready to approach that subject just yet. Can we take it slow here?”

  I nodded. “Slow, yes, but we can’t avoid it forever. Now that he knows I’m his father, I want to spend time with him. I want to take him to games and go camping and teach him to fish.”

  She laughed. “Slow down. You need to get to know him first, don’t you think?”

  I nodded. “I guess. I have a lot of missed time to make up for. I want to spend as much time with him as I can. You have to be willing to let me hang out with him. I can’t possibly get to know him if you deny me time with him.”

  “I know that, and I will. Let’s take it slow though. We have to ease him into the idea of having a dad before we spring weekend camping trips on him. Although, I don’t think he would mind a bit, and I think once you get to know each other, I’ll be more than happy to have a little weekend break now and then.”

  I laughed. “You’ve done good, Ash. Like, really good. He’s amazing. I can’t wait to get to know him.”

  “Thank you.”

  “So, what exactly did you mean when you said you’re moving back?” I asked again, hoping to get a better answer—an answer that would tell me what I could expect for my land deal.

  The smile she bestowed on me sent a shiver down my spine. I knew I had lost. Somehow, the woman had done the impossible. She didn’t say the words, but I knew. A pain in my stomach erupted at the thought of the money I would not get and the money I had wasted on lawyers and planning.

  “I meant we’ll be staying. Jasper and I will be living here for the foreseeable future. Is that okay with you?” she asked sweetly.

  I nodded. My voice seemed to have escaped me. “Staying,” I croaked out.

  Another one of those slightly evil smiles spread across her face before she winked. “Yep. We’re staying.”

  Lord, help me. My plans for the future evaporated, and I experienced one of those moments of pure panic. I couldn’t live in the same town with Ashley if she wasn’t mine. I could never bear to see her with another man, or my child with a man that wasn’t his father. My life had just been turned upside down in the best way imaginable, but I had no idea if it would work out.

  Lord, help us all.
