Corinne never met a guy as crazy as Jason!

She looked at him with disapproval and said, “You can forget about the whole thing. I don’t plan to have a second child, nor do I plan to find a stepfather for my kid.”

Jason pretended to be hurt. “But Corinne, I took a big risk to help you escape from the Holdens. Also, you promised to date me for a month in return for helping you.”

“Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten my promise. But, dating and marriage are different things, so you better give up the idea of us going any further than a date. I’m already too tired to give marriage another try.”

Jason gazed deeply into her eyes before reaching out to touch her, but his hand froze when he saw Corinne shrink back. He put down his hand and smiled to hide his embarrassment.

At that moment, Corinne was not in a headspace to think about all that stuff. “Thank you for your help today. I’ll take your advice to stay here for a few days. You can go back to work now.”
