Walter's heart raced as he watched Abby be arrested, her face contorted with anger and fear. The police officers had done their job, but the weight of betrayal still hung heavy in his chest. The realization that the woman he had married, the mother of his child, had masterminded the kidnapping of their son, was almost too much to bear. He could barely hold his composure as he held Logan close to him, rocking the infant gently as the sounds of Abby's shrieks filled the air.
Logan, oblivious to the chaos around him, cooed softly in his arms, and Walter couldn't help but feel a deep sense of love and protectiveness. He had fought so hard to bring his son home, and now that Logan was safe, Walter had a sense of bittersweet victory. As he looked down at the baby, he knew that no matter what Abby had said, Logan was his—his son, his flesh and blood. The thought of losing him, of having him taken away, had terrified Walter more than anything else. But now, with the police ensuring Abby and James would face justice, he felt a faint flicker of relief.
He glanced over at his brother, James, whose downcast eyes only deepened Walter’s pain. The betrayal from Abby was one thing, but the quiet complicity from James stung just as badly. Was their entire family capable of such deception? Walter’s hands shook slightly as he clutched Logan tighter, but he refused to let the bitterness of the moment ruin his sense of responsibility as a father. He couldn’t let Logan grow up in a world where trust was so easily broken. No matter the cost, he would protect Logan, even if it meant severing ties with his past.
Abby’s defiant words echoed in Walter’s mind, and he froze for a moment. Logan isn’t even yours! The accusation struck him like a physical blow. He glanced at his brother again, whose silence spoke volumes. Walter had always trusted James, but now, that trust felt like a fragile illusion.
Despite the sting, Walter stood his ground. He had fought too hard to get to this point. He wouldn't let anyone, not even family, stand in the way of his son’s future. He would adopt Logan if necessary. The blood connection didn’t matter. Logan was his son in every way that counted.
As Walter left the hospital, holding Logan close and stepping out into the cool evening air, he knew that this was just the beginning. The fight for his son’s safety was far from over, but for the first time in what felt like forever, Walter felt like he could breathe again.
