Chapter 1389
I'm single, and | love it!
And just like that, the news blew up all over social media.
Everyone online suddenly turned into Sherlock Holmes, tossing out theories left
and right:
"Remember when the Huber family kicked Mr. Huber out a while back? It's gotta be because he dumped Beatrix
and called off the engagement!"
"The Huber family got pissed, cut him off, and tried to force him into a marriage alliance!"
"Now that they realize they can't push him around, they're backing off, and the black sheep of the family is
suddenly the golden boy again!"
A bunch of women were as excited as if it were Christmas morning- congratulating Keaton on regaining his single
status, while at the stime, trash-talking Beatrix with every nasty comment you could imagine.
Winona scrolled through the news, eyes wide in shock.
She never expected Keaton to go public about his relationship with Beatrix. He had to know, the moment he did,
the intewould tear Beatrix apart.
He'd even confessed to assault just to protect Beatrix's reputation-there had to be something between them. So
why didn't he care now if people went after her?
He shielded her so fiercely, and yet, he was the one who threw her under the bus. What the hell was going on?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWinona couldn't make sense of it. Watching Keaton through the glass window, she saw his back turned to her,
standing on the balcony, smoking.
His cigarette was barely halfway done when his phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen-Beatrix.
Keaton didn't look surprised at all. He picked up, “Yeah?”
Beatrix's voice was shaky, tense, like she was holding back tears. "You've fallen for Winona, haven't you?!"
Beatrix wasn't stupid. Keaton's public announcement was obviously meant to defend Winona, to keep people
from calling her a homewrecker.
If a guy goes this far to protect a woman, what else could it be but love?
Keaton didn't say a word, and Beatrix got even more upset.
"First of all, don't forget what's between us!"
"And second, don't forget that Winona is the girl your best friend Callum Leblanc likes! Bros before-well, you
know! How could you do this to Callum?!"
Keaton frowned, a spark of annoyance in his eyes. He flicked his ash, his voice cool and detached.
"First of all, there's nothing between us."
"I confessed to the assault to
Pour reputation to help you
get by with the Suttons, to look out for you." s
"Why did | look out for you? Not for your sake. You're smart, you know the real reason."
"And second, whether or not | like Winona has nothing to do with you or Callum." "Who I, Keaton, care about is
my own business. No one else's. Least of all yours." "Beatrix, you're a woman, | don't want to argue with you, but
you need to know your place."
"I know all your little secrets. Just
stick to being Sutton's princess, stay out of my life and leave my friends alone."
s
"If you mess with Winona again, you'll have more to cry about than you can imagine."
"If you think I'm just bluffing, go ahead-try me."
With that, Keaton hung up.

Winona eyed him suspiciously. "You and Beatrix..."
Keaton cut her off right away,
"Boundaries, Winona. Personal lives are personal. Even best friends don't get to pry."
Winona: "..."
