All Chapters of Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back: Chapter 471 - Chapter 480

Third Person POV“Your daddy is a criminal. That’s what my mom said.”Carl glared at the boy, Callum. It was recess and all the kids were out playing on the playground. But Callum and his group of friends had followed Carl to the field.Carl was spending his recesses and lunch times alone, in a corner of the field, picking at the grass and watching the other children play. Ever since his Daddy Luigi had been arrested, the other children had been less than kind to him.His friends no longer talked to him. Just last week, a group of friends he used to play with had a birthday party, and Carl wasn’t even invited. It hurt. Just like his father’s absence. Just like the fact that his Mommy Willow had lied to him.The boys teased him, calling his daddy a bad man. But Carl knew that wasn’t true. He didn’t understand why his daddy was in jail, but he knew that Luigi was not a bad man. He was a good man. And a good daddy.Carl found it was easier to just hide in the back of the field during rece

Third Person POVAdonis stood perfectly still, as though he were frozen. He was in utter disbelief. Surely, he’d heard her wrong.How could Willow be pregnant? She hadn’t had any contact with Luigi since December 1st, the night he’d been arrested. It was now nearing the end of January.That meant that…Willow was more than two months pregnant?“Will?” Adonis asked. Willow had her back turned to him and he stared at the back of her head. Logan was the first one to turn around. He looked at Adonis with a weak smile.“Are you?” Adonis asked, stepping out onto the patio and going around to the front of Willow. She was staring out over the lawn. “Are you pregnant?”“I didn’t want you to find out this way,” Willow said, bringing her eyes to meet Adonis’. Adonis knelt down, placing his hands on Willow’s knees. Willow’s eyes glistened with tears.“Why didn’t you tell me?” Adonis asked. Clearly, Logan knew. But Adonis was Willow’s best friend. He couldn’t believe that she’d been keeping a secret

Luigi’s POV“Hernandez, you got a visitor.” The guard appeared at my cell and the cell opened up. Glancing at him, I was puzzled. I wasn’t expecting a visitor. Willow was coming tomorrow.“Lucky you,” my new cell mate scoffed. His name was Curly, obviously not his real name. He was a large, pudgy man with a bald spot on his head. He’d been involved in some sort of money laundering scheme, a pyramid scheme, which included corporate embezzlement. It had landed him two years behind bars.He wasn’t exactly a pleasant man, but he was a lot better than Brooks. His nose was always running and his cheeks were always a little too red. His voice was a bit whiny, too. Curly had already made friends with one of the gangs, since he was a weak, timid man. I didn’t say a word about it. I’d learn my lesson and about involving myself in other people’s affairs here.Curly could do whatever the hell he wanted. I was on my own, and determined to keep it that way.Ever since my fight with Brooks, no one re

Luigi’s POVLogan sighed. Beside us, a child giggled and kicked her legs at the table. The sound of her giggles drew my attention. The woman she was with sat, a stern expression on her face. The children reminded me a bit of Mira.Willow was having twins. My twins. I was going to be a father. Granted, I was already a father to Mira and Carl, and a bonus father to Leo. But this felt different. Staring at the young girl, my heart was so conflicted I could barely speak. “You need to tell me the truth, Logan,” I said, bringing my eyes back to him. “How is Willow holding up? Really?”Concerned for Willow, I listened carefully to Logan’s words.“On the surface, yes. Willow is okay. But deep down? She’s hurting. She’s trying to hold it all together, but I feel like she’s holding a very thin piece of string. And I’m afraid it’s going to snap.”“Which is why you’re telling me,” I said.“Exactly. She needs you, Luigi. She needs your support and love. Adonis, Jay and I are all doing everything

Willow’s POV“This is bullshit,” I snapped as I marched down the school hallway, Carl in hand.Carl looked at me with wide eyes. I never swore in front of him, and I hadn’t meant to. But the meeting with the principal had me really riled up.Apparently, Carl had attacked another kid on the school field for no reason. Yeah, right, I scoffed. For no reason at all.The kid had provoked Carl. I knew it in my gut. These boys were cruel, cutting Carl out of their lives like he was nothing more than a piece of trash. The whole thing was ridiculous. None of this was Carl’s fault. Why were they punishing him for Luigi’s incarceration?Mira’s friends were much better. She still had a close circle, and the mothers of those children showed me kindness. Leo too.But not Carl.His friends, and their asinine mothers were all a bunch of mean idiots.“I’m sorry,” I said to Carl as I flung open the door. “But this is ridiculous.”Carl was officially suspended from school. For two weeks! The school had a
