The hall was filled with flowers.
Inside, it was already packed with Julian's family, friends, and colleagues.
Seeing her at the door in a dress, everyone gasped, "Wow!"novelbin
Before she could react, a colleague handed her flowers.
She smiled and said, "Ms. Blackwood, I wish you happiness."
Joey looked at Julian, who stood nearby, confused.
Julian was dressed sharply in a light gray suit and dark tie, gazing at her tenderly.
Even if Joey was a bit clueless, she knew what was happening.
Since she agreed to be with Julian, she hadn't seen him. He kept saying he was busy. Turns out, he was planning this surprise.
Faced with such a thoughtful man, Joey was moved. Smiling, she walked forward. With each step, someone handed her flowers and offered blessings.
This was a scene she had dreamed of, and Julian made it real.
When she reached the Knight Family, Bessie and Stewart held her hands, smiling.
Bessie patted Joey's hand and said, "Julian's wait wasn't in vain. He finally has you, Joey. You two must be happy."
Elaine hugged Joey and said, "Glad to have you with us!"
Joey had never felt so valued.
In her original family, her grandmother schemed against her. In Sebastian's family, she never made her relationship public.
Her eyes reddened, and she walked towards Julian, smiling.
Julian took her hand, knelt on one knee, and looked up at her. His voice was gentle and affectionate. "Joey, will you be my girlfriend? I'll protect you and never let you get hurt again." He took out a ring box from his pocket.
Just as he was about to put the ring on Joey, a child's voice echoed through the hall. "Daddy, don't you want me?"
Everyone turned towards the voice and saw a boy, about two years old, holding an envelope and walking towards Julian with a tearful face.
The boy's face was delicate, his skin fair, and his big eyes clear as sapphires. His curly hair shocked the Knight Family.
Bessie was the first to question. "Who is this child? Why does he look exactly like Julian when he was little?"
The boy, seeing so many people, was timid and walked unsteadily. He stumbled to Julian's side and handed him the envelope.
Todd Knight looked up with big eyes and said, "Daddy, I'm Todd, your son. Don't you want me?"

Julian was stunned. He looked at the boy in disbelief and said, "You can't just call anyone daddy. Tell me, where your dad is and what his name is. I'll have someone take you to him."
Hearing this, Todd started crying. "My daddy's name is Julian, my mommy's name is Alissa, and my name is Todd. I'm two years old. Daddy, why don't you want me and mommy? Don't you like Todd?" Hearing his cries, Julian was shocked and staggered back. He immediately opened the envelope in his hand.
Inside was a paternity test report for him and Todd, along with a note: "Julian, Todd is your son. He'll stay with you for a while. I'll come to get him when I'm done. Alissa."
Seeing the handwriting and signature, Julian was stunned. Alissa Morrison was his girlfriend when he first went abroad. They dated and lived together for six months.
Later, he realized he couldn't forget Joey and often called her name in his dreams. Feeling it was unfair to Alissa, he broke up with her. Alissa left decisively, but he didn't know she was pregnant. Julian didn't know how to face Joey. He looked at her with red eyes and said, "Joey, I don't know what's going on. Listen to me, the one I love has always been you. This child is just an accident." Joey understood everything now. She didn't know how to describe her feelings. It was like falling from the clouds of happiness to the depths of despair. Maybe happiness never existed for her. She smiled faintly and said, "Julian, the child may be an accident, but he's innocent. I hope you can be a responsible father. Let's consider today's event a farce. I'm leaving now."
With that, she turned and walked out. She didn't want to stay there any longer. She felt she couldn't face everyone's gaze.
With Sebastian, she was treated as a mistress. She finally wanted a new relationship, but it ended before it even started. She was always the one abandoned.
Joey ran out of the banquet hall and drove away alone. Julian handed the child to his parents and went after Joey. Everyone had something to say.
Facing everyone's comments, Sophia's anger peaked. She didn't believe this was just a coincidence; someone must be behind it. And she knew exactly who it was.
She stormed out and saw Alexander entering a private room next door.
Sophia gritted her teeth. "Sebastian, it really was you!" She kicked open the door and saw Sebastian sitting in the middle.
Sebastian was leisurely talking to someone, his face full of pride and satisfaction.
Sophia picked up a glass of wine from the table and threw it at him without mercy. "Sebastian, you bastard! Can't you let Joey be happy? Wasn't she good to you for three years? How could you do this to her? She finally found happiness, and you ruined it. Do you have any humanity left?"
As she spoke, her face was already covered in tears. She felt sad for Joey and felt it was unfair for her to have loved Sebastian so much.
Alexander saw this and immediately grabbed her wrist.
Besides Joey, no one had ever dared to treat Sebastian like this. He was afraid Sebastian would retaliate against Sophia.
"Why can't you talk it out? Why do you have to get physical? Sebastian didn't do it on purpose. That child wasn't his doing. It's better for Joey to find out sooner rather than later."
"Fuck! It's not better at all! Do you know how sad Joey was just now? So many people were watching, and he just handed a child to Julian. Do you think he did it for Joey's good? If he cared about her, he wouldn't have ignored her when she was hemorrhaging!"
Hearing this, Sebastian, who had been calm, suddenly stood up from his chair.
His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Sophia. "What did you say? What hemorrhaging?"
