Chapter 13 - The Custody Battle
Desperate to maintain some leverage over Elise's fortune, Landon hired a cheap legal aid attorney to file for full joint custody of their unborn baby.
Three months later, inside the county family courthouse, Landon stood before the judge wearing a wrinkled, second-hand suit, claiming he was a reformed father who deserved to raise his child.
Elise walked into the courtroom looking stunning and serene, holding her newly born baby girl wrapped in a soft white blanket.

The judge looked down at Landon with strict disapproval, slamming his gavel onto the bench.
