Which sentence has an error using a commonly confused word?

That puppy is too cute to be believed!

She refused to except his engagement proposal.

just don't know whom we should send this last invitation to.

B. She refused to except his engagement proposal.

Explanation:

To accept something, is the action of receiving, whereas to except, is the action of excluding something. By using the word except in this sentence format, it would be similar to saying; She refused to exclude his engagement proposal. I doesn't make sense.
