“It was hypothetical, Ayla. Nothing is going to happen to Madison.”
“I said I would.”
“Then why did she ask when you’re going to tell me?”

“But you didn’t.”
“You didn’t promise to drive her to an appointment, Nolan. You told her you’d consider becoming responsible for her child.”
“I know.”
“Then why did she ask when you’re going to tell me?”
“No. You knew enough to keep it from me.”
