Are You Bribing Me?

"Hey, how could you say that?" Jasmine asked with a bewildered expression.

"Won't you have to marry me if that happens?" Jackson still pursued the issue.

"No, I will raise my daughter by myself," Jasmine blurted without thinking. Jackson frowned on hearing her words. He made to pull away but Jasmine quickly held his hand.

"I was just kidding so why are you taking what I said so seriously?" Jasmine said as she dropped the glass of juice on the tray. She quickly cupped his frowning face.

"It didn't look like you were joking," Jackson said not smiling at her like he usually does.

"Of course I was joking. If a woman like me raises a child, the child will turn out to be super naughty just like her mother so she will definitely need her father in her life," Jasmine said as she pecked him on his lips but unfortunately, Jackson did not respond. There was no sign that he has forgiven her.
