Chapter 1643
The room fell silent in an instant, and all eyes snapped to Winona. Huh? Winona suppressed a smirk, playing the part of the wide-eyed ingenue. “Now, Ms. Sutton, you can’t go around accusing innocent people. When did I ever lay a hand on you? Or kidnap you?” Beatrix’s jaw tightened as she spat out the words, “Today! It was today! You’re the one who tied me up and brought me here!” Winona chuckled. “Oh, that? Yes, Keaton Huber and I brought you here, but we did it to give you a surprise.” “If we really wanted to kidnap you, why would you end up at a marriage proposal?” Beatrix’s professor and classmates started speaking up for Winona. “Beatrix, you’ve really got it wrong. She was just helping. She’s the one who helped decorate for the proposal.” “Yeah, Ms. Newsom has been running around all day, spending her own money and everything.” Winona’s admirers, who had come to help, weren’t happy and started muttering under their breath. “Even the white suit the groom-to-be is wearing and the flowers in his hand were paid for by Ms. Newsom.” “Totally, and Ms. Newsom even arranged the car to pick them up.” Beatrix became agitated. “She’s trying to ruin me! She wants me dead! I don’t even know her, she has no reason to help me!” The crowd was confused. “Huh?” Winona explained with a smile, “It’s understandable that Ms. Sutton is mistaken. We’re not close, it’s true. She’s a friend of a friend.” “But Ms. Sutton, if I really wanted to kidnap you, there’s no way you’d be here right now.” “Alright, alright, Ms. Sutton, don’t just stand there frozen. Your boyfriend is still on one knee. Say yes, marry him!” Hearing this, the others started cheering again, “Marry him! Marry him!” Tate Joubert looked at Beatrix, his face full of adoration. “Beatrix, marry me! I promise I’ll be good to you!” Beatrix didn’t even spare Tate Joubert a glance, hissing at Winona through gritted teeth, “He’s not my boyfriend!” Everyone froze. “Huh?” Winona laughed. “I know, I know. He’s not exactly your boyfriend anymore. He’s been promoted—he’s your baby daddy!” What Baby daddy? The crowd was completely baffled. “?” Beatrix’s breath hitched. Elysia Thorne, Tarquin Bradford, Keaton, Janelle, Richard Huber, and the entire Sutton family were all stunned! All their heads whipped towards Winona. “?” Winona beamed, looking at Beatrix. “The baby in your belly is going to be a genius. You’re a top student, and Mr. Joubert is too. Those are some powerful genes.” “And the little one is so lucky, getting to witness their father’s classic proposal in person.” The room was dead silent… Keaton looked down at Winona. Only now did he realize what a huge drama Winona had orchestrated. No wonder she was willing to set the stage for Beatrix, arranging this whole proposal scene! It was all just to expose Beatrix in front of everyone… Well, things just got interesting! Whether she accepted this proposal or not, there was no way the Huber family would have her now! Without raising her voice or a hand, Winona, all smiles, had completely shattered Beatrix’s dream of marrying into the Huber family. What’s more, Winona could let the Sutton family do her dirty work for her! Beatrix was pregnant, so Winona couldn’t touch her, but the Suttons wouldn’t be so gentle. After tonight, the Suttons would be furious. They would definitely teach Beatrix a harsh lesson. This really was a great show. The only question was, how did she know the baby in Beatrix’s womb belonged to Tate Joubert?
