Chapter 168

Jesse stopped in his tracks. He lowered his hand and watched her slowly lift her head to look at him. She was crying again. Had he been completely wrong about why she had been so secretive? Was she scared that he’d hurt her because of the baby? He’d told her that he would love to have a baby with her. He walked up and wrapped his arms around her.

“That’s fantastic news! Why did you hide it?”

Renee moaned as she felt nauseous. “I wasn’t sure if you really wanted a baby or you were just talking out of lust. And you scare me. You’ve been very secretive and I know you’ve been angry. If you have to stay away from me because you’re angry then what’s going to happen when you finally give in to it?”

“I can understand that you’re scared of the past you’re remembering but I haven’t been that guy for a long time. I told you we would talk about everything when you finally remembered it.”
