So if anyone was pregnant with his baby, it had to be Winona!
But they''d only slept togetherst night. There was no way she could be pregnant this fast!
A rumor. This was a pure, unadulterated rumor.
Keaton''s face was grim. "Who the hell did you hear this from?"
Booker replied, "I heard it from my mom. And my mom heard it from Mrs. Wace!"
Keaton was stupefied. "Mrs. Wace? I barely know her. How would she know if my girlfriend is pregnant or not?"
Booker said, "I don''t know about that, but my mom said that after she heard it from Mrs. Wace, she called your mom to ask. And your mom, she didn''t admit it, but she didn''t deny it either."
"The key thing is, there''s hard evidence. Your mom''s already started looking at high- end birthing centers. And based on the month she''s booking for, it''s definitely not for your sister."
Keaton: "..."
No wonder Richard Huber and his dear mother Janelle were so ecstaticst night, rolling out the red carpet and going to the family chapel to offer thanks.
And no wonder they were so furiouster when he mentioned the possibility of breaking up with Winona!
They had misunderstood. They thought Winona was pregnant with his child!
To them, the ''possibility of breaking up'' sounded like he didn''t want the baby!
That''s why Richard had gotten so angry he''d threatened to disown him on the spot, chasing him down as if he were a rebellious teenager again!
The realization hit Keaton with the force of a physical blow. He was speechless.
Booker yelled, "Say something! Don''t just y mute!"
Keaton pressed his lips together. "Would you stop being such an idiot and believing every little thing you hear? It''s a misunderstanding. My parents are just so desperate for a grandchild they''ve lost their minds."
Booker asked, "So it''s not true?"
"No!"
Keaton hung up on Booker and immediately called Jessamine.
He had to clear this up and stop the rumor from spreading. Right now, it was just his girlfriend'' who was pregnant. What if it eventually became Winora who was pregnant? What would that do to her?

She was a single, famous actress. A pregnancy rumor like this would be disastrous for her.
As soon as she answered, he asked, "Jessamine, I heard Mom''s been looking at birthing centers?"
Jessamine didn''t answer right away. After a pause, she whispered, "I was just with Mom. I was about to call you. You weren''t answering your phone and you were driving Mon and Dad crazy!"
"They''re saying Winona is pregnant, but that you don''t really want the baby. What''s going on?"
Keaton''s head was spinning. "It''s a rumor! Where did Mom and Dad even get this news?"
"Mrs. Wace told them. She saw you two at that organic boutique bakery yesterday and even sent Mom a video."
"A bakery for pregnant women? Winona went there to buy you something because she thought you were at home!"
"But in the video, the staff called you a couple, and you didn''t correct them. They mentioned Winona being in her early pregnancy, and you didn''t correct them then either."
Keaton: "...It was all a misunderstanding. I swear, I''m not lying to you. Winona is not pregnant!"
Jessamine: "Are you sure?"
Keaton: "I''m positive!"
Jessamine''s tone turned serious. "Then tell me the truth. Are you and Winona actually together or not?"
"We..."
He was about to say no, but then he rememberedst night. Keaton scratched his head.
"Don''t worry about us for now. The
point is, she''s not pregnant! You
have to tell Mom and Dad right
away
hey have to
stop this rumor
from spreading. It could be really
damaging for Winona!"
The public often rushes to judgment. A pregnancy could be happy news, but Winona
was single. People would ask, who''s the father?
Trolls woulde out of the woodwork, using her of being promiscuous or
having an affair with a married man.
Either way, it would be bad for her.
