Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities

Chapter 11

Helen was dazzled by his smile. Thinking of Milton, she gradually stopped herself from being angry. "Chandler asked me to throw away his coat, but Jenson misunderstood me."

Jenson looked in disbelief. "Chandler, is what she said true?"

Although Chandler did not ask Helen to throw away his coat, he acquiesced to her behavior. So, he replied, "Yes."

Esmond said in relief, "Oh, it's really a misunderstanding! Brat, apologize to Helen!"

Although Jenson knew he was wrong, he remained unconvinced.

"Apologize!" Esmond repeated.

Clenching his fists, Jenson said through gritted teeth, "I'm sorry."

Although Helen did nothing wrong, she felt a little guilty when Jenson apologized. "It doesn't matter."

"Get along well in the future! I hope Helen will become my granddaughter-in-law!" Esmond looked at her seriously.

She felt embarrassed as she never thought they could get along.

...

As Newton Residence was spacious, many cleaners cleaned the house early in the morning.

Jenson yawned and walked downstairs in a daze. Just then, he heard a cleaner remind him, "Mr. Jenson, I just mopped the floor. It's a little slippery. Please be careful." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Okay."

He rubbed his head, suddenly having an idea. He turned around and asked sweetly, "Can you bring me a basin of water?"

...

The cleaner soon brought a basin of water. She was shocked as Jenson poured it on the stairs and ordered her, "Don't clean the stairs now. You can clean them after breakfast."

As he liked to play pranks the most, the cleaner didn't dare to ask, agreeing without hesitation.

There was only Helen upstairs. No one but her would accidentally step on that puddle of water.

Thinking of that, Jenson burst into laughter. He couldn't help but laugh while imagining her falling.

...

Helen happened to meet Chandler when she was about to go downstairs. He politely stepped aside and let her pass first.

She thanked him, continuing to walk downstairs. Unexpectedly, she stepped on a puddle of water. She slipped and fell backward.

She was doomed! She closed her eyes in fear but fell into a warm embrace, which exuded a reassuring aura.

She slowly opened her eyes. When their gazes met, she instantly blushed. She distanced herself from Chandler, turning around to leave.

He felt her lingering fragrance in his hand. Seeing her walking some distance away, he remembered what he wanted to tell her.

"I helped you at the banquet because of Grandpa's order. Don't get me wrong."

What did he mean? Did he think she would misunderstand that he liked her?

Helen took a deep breath and smiled slightly. "I've always been very self-aware, Mr. Chandler."

Seeing a slight change in Chandler's calm expression, she changed to smile wantonly. "But you're so kind to me. I might not be able to control my feelings one day."

...

Jenson sat at the dining table, chatting with Zac happily. Seeing Helen, he gloomily put down the bread, planning to leave.

"Jenson, sit down!"

After scolding him, Esmond turned to greet her, "Helen, come have breakfast! Chandler will send you two to school later."

Jenson was unpleasant. "I don't want to go to school with her!"

Esmond said stubbornly, "Brat, you have no right to refuse it!"

Chandler said nothing, taking a big bite of bread.

Seeing that Helen was fine, Jenson knew his prank must have failed.

What was even worse was that he had to go to school with her from now on!

He took several more bites of bread, thinking to himself. Since his tricks did not work, he would deal with her openly!
