Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1735

"I'm not babbling! You're completely in love with him!"

"You recently canceled all the movie contracts and reality shows I got you. That was because of Shane, wasn't it?"

"You're terrified he might misunderstand our relationship. You're so scared of upsetting him that you're trying to cut all ties with me!"

Winona's eyes widened, staring at Keaton in utter shock.

Of course not!

She backed out of her contracts because of the baby!

The moment she made the decision to keep this child, her baby became the single most important thing in her life.

She was practically swimming in cash; there was no need to keep working herself to the bone.

Right now, her only priority was a healthy pregnancy. Work could wait until later.

Furthermore... Keaton actually thought she was dating Shane!

Good god, Shane was her...

Before Winona could process the absurdity, Keaton plowed on, his brow furrowed fiercely.

"You love him, so you're protecting him. You don't want him getting jealous of me, so you need to draw a hard line. I get that!"

"I can even understand you dating a boy who's barely out of college!"

"Dating younger guys is the trend right now. Plenty of gorgeous women love toy boys!"

"But take a hard look around—how many of those relationships actually survive in the real world?"

"You told me your ultimate dream was to stand on an international stage and accept an award for your acting. Now you're throwing your entire dream in the trash for a younger boy?"

"Do you have any idea what breaking those contracts means? It means you're going to be replaced!"

"The entertainment industry breeds beautiful women by the second. The moment you step off the gas, someone else takes your spot!"

"You are at the absolute peak of your career! You're one inch away from everything you've ever wanted, and you're just giving up!"

"Is Shane really that important to you?"

Winona was speechless. Shane wasn't the important one here—it was the baby in her womb!

Unaware of the truth, Keaton only grew more furious the longer he spoke.

His pent-up rage had been building for way too long.
