I dont get why we are rooting for Kyle and Annie to be married? He is a disgusting cheater who will never change his ways- a ring on his finger won't stop him. I dread to think of the things he has exposed Annie to. I wouldn't root for any woman to be married to a man like him.
Okay so I’m not rooting for it because I think it will make Kyle not cheat, I’m rooting for it because I think Annie is going to stay with him anyway so she might as well be Mrs Walker if that’s what
she wants (she may even secure some more rights for herself if he does mess up again).
The added bonus is that it will put the toxic pump and dump in her place. Goodman has the audacity to put herself on parr with Annie, thinking they are equal as they both slept with Kyle and both have his child/children. Meanwhile in the real world, context is everything, Lauryn was the quickie fling resulting in an unwanted pregnancy (for Kyle) versus Annie being a long term partner who he has a
planned family with.
The other thing is Lauryn’s pettiness in using the name Walker for Kairo as a way to dig at Kyle and cash in. She thinks it’s clever whereas I think it’s emotional abuse, she will damage her own son’s sense of identity and self worth (having the name of a man who rejected him instead of the name of the only parent raising him with Kairo having to relive the pain of feeling unwanted every time he has to explain this to his school mates in years to come etc.)
With a bit of luck, if Annie takes the Walker name, Lauryn will not want to use it anymore (given her jealousy it’s very possible). This might force her into doing the right thing and giving her son the name of the family he is part of rather than the family she wants him to be part of.
