Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 10

Returning to the villa, Helen breathed a sigh of relief. Too many things had happened that she didn't even have the time to react to.

While sitting in the car just now, she observed Chandler through the front view mirror. As it was dark inside, she couldn't see his expression.

She thought a lot along the way but still couldn't figure out why he suddenly took action. Based on his character, he should be a bystander. Was he a good man who didn't judge her by her appearance?

Without thinking much, she went back to the room and changed out of her dress. She deliberately put on a set of tacky pajamas and walked into his study.

There was a stack of documents and a few scattered photos on his desk.

"Here is your coat. Thanks for your help just now."

Chandler glanced at Helen and said, "You don't need to return it."

She replied, "If you think it's dirty, I can send it to the laundry."

He looked at her and emphasized, "I don't want it anymore."

Her expression darkened, and she sneered. "Don't want it? Then I'll throw it away."

After saying that, she threw his coat into the trash can. Then, she glanced at him. He still sat on the sofa, reading the documents without saying anything.

His reaction dampened her mood. Originally, she planned to clean his coat and thank him again while returning it. It seemed that her gratitude was superfluous.

She turned to leave but found Jenson standing at the door motionlessly.

"Stand aside," she said rudely.

He saw the coat in the trash can and angrily asked, "Did you throw it away?"

Faced with his inexplicable question, she nodded.

But he instantly became furious. "You're indeed a country bumpkin! You just imitated Margaret's dressing style, didn't you?
