Winona glanced at the security guard and asked, "What does she want with me?"
"She didn't say," the guard replied.
There was a brief pause before Winona said, "Just let her wait forin the lounge. I'll be there in a minute."
After hanging up, Winona turned to Elysia and Jessamine.
"It's Beatrix-Keaton's fiancée. She's here to see me."
Elysia frowned in confusion. "What does she want with you?"
Winona shrugged. "No idea. She didn't say."
Jessamine scowled. "It's obviously about Keaton. Winona, don't go lethandle her."
Jessamine had a pretty poor opinion of the Sutton family these days.
The whole situation with the Suttons seemed like an orchestrated move to force Keaton into marrying Beatrix.
On the surface, it looked like Beatrix got the short end of the stick, but honestly, Keaton was the one getting
screwed over this time. He might not have really been kicked out, but those bruises were real-Richard nearly
beat him half to death.
Jessamine, as Keaton's sister, was furious.
She'd always been neutral about Beatrix-not fond of her, but not hostile either. Now, though? She couldn't stand
the woman. She was worried Winona would get hurt and wanted to go in her place.
Winona shook her head. "No need. Things are already tense between the Suttons and the Hubers. If she sees

"She has no reason to cafter me. I'll be fine."
Elysia asked, "Wantto cwith you?"
Winona smiled. "No, you stay here with Jess. I'll be right back."
She changed into something a little sharper, slipped on her heels, and headed out.
In the lounge by the gate, Beatrix sat primly on the couch, waiting. Her wire- immed glasses gave her a studious
look. She was all delicate features and pale skin, thin and fragile-looking-the kind of girl who'd fade into the
background of a college library, lost in her books.
When Winona walked in, Beatrix stood up and greeted her politely. "Ms. Newsom."
Winona flashed a vague, polite smile. "Take a seat. What can | do for you?"
Beatrix didn't waste time. "I'm here to see Keaton. But he won't talk to me."
Winona narrowed her eyes. "That's between you and Keaton. What's it got to do with me?"
Beatrix's tone was even. "lI know you're living next door to him now."
"Yeah, | am. So?"
Beatrix got straight to the point. "Can you takein to see him? Just for a minute?"
"No." Winona didn't hesitate.
Beatrix's brow furrowed. Winona explained, "I don't want to get involved in whatever's going on between you
two."

"Keaton really doesn't like you. Instead of wasting your ton him, maybe it's tto let go and find someone
you actually click with."
"You're not lacking in prospects. You could easily find a great guy to settle down with."
Beatrix frowned again, her expression mostly unchanged, but her eyes turned icy sharp.
