Everybody in the dining room looked thunderstruck. Momentarily, they didn't know how to respond to Lea's confession.
"D–do you mean, the baby is not our grandchild?" Lisa asked in disbelief.
Lea nodded. Lisa stared at her husband who looked so disappointed at the truth Lea said.
"You lied straight to our faces?" Alex snapped.
"Dad, let her explain," Vanessa pleaded to her dad.
"I am sorry. I know that I wronged you, Mr. Montgomery. That's why I beg for your forgiveness," Lea said, sobbing. "Paula found me pregnant, she misunderstood that I am pregnant with William's baby … instead of telling the truth, I used this as the opportunity to get your consent for our relationship."
Alex couldn't contain his anger. He stood up and was about to hit Lea in the face. But, fortunately, Lisa and Vanessa held him, preventing him from physically harming her.
"Dad, she is pregnant. Spare her, please!" Vanessa pleaded with her dad.
