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.”
