Nadia didn't think that Apple would actually do something like this. How could she do that to herself? She was her mother, after all. There was no way she would let herself get into trouble with the law, right?
But Apple didn't seem to have that thought. She was serious about what she said.
"How can you leave your child alone in a strange place?" Apple pretended not to see James' angry look.
"I didn't leave him in a strange place, I told him to meet his sister who he never met," Nadia tried to shift the blame on Apple, because it was clear that she was afraid that the authorities would get involved in this.
It seemed that this was not the first time Nadia had had to deal with the authorities regarding matters concerning Jack.
"I never agreed to keep him," Apple said. "I never agreed to even meet him. If you let that kid come to me unsupervised, that's abandonment, and I guess that's what you did."
