Perhaps you could resubmit your question after carefully rereading and rewritng it so that we can more easlily dertermine your meaning.
There really seems to be no incentive for a parent to relinquish their rights and still have a support obligation. Usually someone is paid to do something that someone else wants, but is of no advantage to the doer.
If you cannot pay him, you might choose to have your husband adopt the girl.
Other than those options, you might seek support through the court, and hope that he opts to not seek visitation or custody
Good luck
