It was about the future of their relationship and how she would spend the remainder of her time with him.
"You claimed that your marriage with her wasn't bad and that it was still salvageable. Was that a joke too?" Nidia sulked. She glanced down at his palm gripping her phone.
"We're not married," Jackson stated carefully. He was scared she might hit him and scold him in a fit of rage.
Her small fists didn't harm him, but he was concerned that if he unintentionally hurt the baby, she would be the one who suffered.
"I'm sorry," Jackson said sincerely, "but do whatever you want with me as long as you can take the heat off."
Nidia was perplexed. She had no idea why he had suddenly apologized. He even said and did things that had upset her the night before he came to Imperial District.
Nadia looked at him with tenderness and replied, "All right. Just don't irritate me again. Can you let me go now?" She was gripped and surrounded in Jackson's arms.
