Richard and Janelle shot back, "Who told you Keaton was proposing today?" Sophus and Sophie were floored. "...?!"


    They had only heard there was going to be a proposal; no one had explicitly mentioned Keaton. But since Beatrix''s romantic entanglement was with Keaton, they had naturally assumed he was the one proposing. That''s why they were so overjoyed, even starting a livestream to announce it to the world.


    "But Beatrix and Keaton..."


    Richard cut them off. "They''re ancient history. Didn''t you just see that young man proposing to Beatrix?"


    Sophie was frantic. “No, but our son-inw is a Huber!"


    "Don''t be ridiculous," Janelle retorted. "That man over there is your son-inw!"


    Sophus and Sophie looked at Tate Joubert, gasping for air. "No! No! This is wrong! This... this is all wrong!"


    Sophus started to move forward to interrupt Tate, but Richard grabbed his arm, his face darkening as he applied pressure. "There''s nothing wrong with it. Don''t you dare ruin this. The kids put a lot of effort into setting this up." He wasn''t about to let him spoil Winona''s borate n.


    Janelle added coldly, "Your daughter hasn''t said anything yet, so why are you so worked up? It''s not like he''s proposing to you!"


    Sophus and Sophie were furious, but they didn''t daresh out at Richard and Janelle. They could only force a strained, cating tone. "But... Mr. and Mrs. Huber, Beatrix is your daughter-inw! She''s carrying a Huber baby in her belly! You can''t just..."


    Janelle''s brow furrowed, and she cut Sophie off. "Mrs. Sutton, you can''t just say things like that! I don''t know whose baby Beatrix is carrying, but I know for a fact that it is not a Huber!"


    Sophie''s eyes widened. "But Beatrix said it was Mr. Huber''s! You can''t disown your own grandchild!"


    Janelle coldly tossed a document at her. "Read this. Carefully."


    Sophus and Sophie snatched the paternity test report. They didn''t know what to expect, but what they say sent a jolt of shock through them. Both grew dizzy, stumbling back a step, nearly falling over.


    Sophie''s voice trembled. “How could this... how could this be...?"


    Janelle snorted. Beatrix was certainly not their daughter-inw. The only daughter-inw for the Huber family was... Janelle''s gaze drifted to the doorway, where Winona was standing, pping and cheering. A smile spread across her face. She liked what she saw. The only daughter-inw for the Hubers could only be Winona.


    On the bed, Beatrix, dressed in a long red dress, was deathly pale. She was supposed to be meeting Keaton at City Hall to get their marriage license. Why was she here?


    This room was decorated. Tate Joubert was on one knee before her with flowers. Her professor and ssmates were here, smiling and pping. This was clearly a well-nned proposal.


    How did she end up at Tate Joubert''s proposal?


    No, no, this was all wrong!


    Amid the chants of "Say yes!", Beatrix''s eyes found Winona, who was standing behind the group of students. She was leaning against the doorframe her beautiful eyes, narrowed as she watched the scene, cheering along with everyone else.


    Beatrix''s fists clenched, and she gritted her teeth. It was her! It had to be her!


    At City Hall, she had seen Winona, and before she could even speak, she had lost consciousness. Winona must have knocked her out and brought her here.


    The nerve of her! How dare shey a hand on a pregnant woman! Was she not afraid of being sued, of being exposed?!


    Beatrix red daggers at Winona, who met her gaze with a look full of defiance.


    Enraged, Beatrix pointed a finger at Winona and screamed, “Call the police! Somebody help me, call the police! She assaulted me! She kidnapped me!"
