Colton nodded and loosened his watch. “Deedee is her niece, so it makes total sense that she cares about her.“.
Jessie‘s smile froze, but she added, “That‘s true, but now that she‘s pregnant, she shouldn‘t only focus on Deedee. She should take care of her own child too.”
Colton was silent in thought.
Jessie looked at him. “Mr. Goldmann, seeing how much she cares about Deedee, what happens if Deedee refuses therapy? I‘m worried about the child.”

Cameron‘s face turned red again. “Nonsense! We‘re not even close to marriage yet.”
He calmly nodded and smiled. “At least we‘ve started something.” Freyja walked over with Deedee. “Waylon?”

Cameron looked into her eyes, paused, smiled, and shook her hand. “Hello, beautiful woman. I‘m Cameron.”
