52 Chapter 52: A FRESH START

"Uncle Lee, it won't be the same without you here!"

"You can't leave now, Lee!"

He held up his hands grimly. "I don't want to lose you guys, either. But if you think about it, Flores would be a wonderful place to raise that baby that is in Tory's belly, as well as all of the other ones that we plan to create. So you see-"

Someone screeched in joy and then suddenly everyone had left their seats to hug and kiss the couple.

Ten sets of hands touched Tory's belly although she didn't want to say that the roundness there wasn't due to a baby bump. In light of this new information there was a change of heart.
