Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities

Chapter 18

The very next morning, just as Helen woke up, she heard the voice of Jenson. "The Smith family disappeared overnight. It's even on the news!"

Helen chimed in, "They must have felt guilty and ran away."

Jenson was a naive boy. He didn't think much about it and said, "Yeah. What can't my brother handle once he takes action?"

Chandler didn't respond to Jenson. He had asked his assistant to investigate Helen yesterday, but they had found nothing.

Thinking about this, he asked tentatively, "Helen, it seems like you knew about this in advance?"

Helen responded casually, "I just found out too. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had a sleepless night." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

With that, she pretended to rub her head.

Chandler noticed she was avoiding the topic, and it seemed suspicious. But he didn't have evidence, so he had to drop the matter.

Back at school, everyone was shocked when they found out that Yvette had been expelled. After this incident, no one dared to trouble Helen anymore.

Helen felt like she was back in her old days as the leader. It was like a duck to water.

As time passed, she started to consider living at school just to avoid the Newton family. But Esmond firmly rejected this idea. "Tyrone and Adrian will be back soon. You should get to know them better."

Helen wasn't enthusiastic about this arranged marriage. She was about to go without dressing up. But Esmond stopped her.

"Helen, I bought you many new clothes. You should dress up a bit before you go. I've also called a makeup artist for you."

She immediately refused, "Mr. Newton Senior, I'll handle it myself. No need to trouble others."

Helen couldn't risk someone touching her face and exposing her disguise. She removed her disguise and then applied a lighter foundation. Thus, she looked brighter than usual.

Her naturally good skin was usually hidden under tanned makeup. With a lighter shade, her beauty became more apparent. She looked more pleasing to the eye now.

Once Helen had dressed up, a driver took her to the old mansion.

...

Chandler and Jenson were really surprised to see how Helen appeared after dressing up. Her face was still dark, but a few shades lighter had made her features stand out more.

Esmond was pleased to see Helen looking so much prettier.

Helen didn't like being forced into this kind of meeting. She picked a corner seat, hoping to just get through it.

However, Esmond made her sit next to Tyrone. "You two, sit closer and get to know each other."

Tyrone looked at Helen. She was dark and ugly, unlike the actresses he had worked with before. He forced a smile and politely said, "Hello."

Helen didn't even look at him. She just said, "Hello!"

Tyrone felt annoyed. He was a big star. His fans would be thrilled to talk to him. But Helen, who came from the countryside, didn't even give him a proper look.

He tried to find a topic she might like. "Have you seen any dramas I've acted in?"

Helen gave him a mocking smile and rolled her eyes. "Nope."

Tyrone was not convinced. "Do you have a favorite actor? I could introduce you."

Helen rolled her eyes so hard they almost went back in her head. Her aunt was an international movie star. Which celebrity had she not met before?

"I'm not interested," Helen said coldly.

Jenson noticed that Tyrone seemed interested in Helen. He felt annoyed.

"Bro, have you become immune after seeing too many pretty actresses? Now you're into ugly ones? Your taste is really weird!"
