Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1082

"Alright, please have a seat," Helen said as she walked into the kitchen.

Tyrone watched her for a moment before turning his attention to Otto. He then moved to the seat where Mia had been and took his place.

While the villa was peaceful, the online world was in turmoil over the brief livestream.

The hashtag #TheMaskStarLiveStreamFaceReveal rapidly surged in popularity, with netizens passionately discussing it online.

…

While Mia was busy reviewing the feedback from the livestream, the atmosphere at the dining table near the kitchen was charged.

Tyrone glanced at Otto and picked up a teacup from the table. As he poured himself some water, he said, "Mr. Sheridan, you might not be aware, but Helen is my sister-in-law; we're family."

"Who says I'm not aware?" Otto replied with a smile.

Tyrone set the cup down, a subtle, enigmatic smile touching his lips. "Being aware of something but acting otherwise isn't exactly what I'd call gentlemanly. Sometimes, the contrast becomes clear through comparison.

"Take this plate of pelmeni, for example. Mr. Sheridan, I'm sure you went through quite an effort to get it. However, if it were my brother or anyone from the Newton family, Helen would have offered it willingly or even made an extra portion—just like she's preparing buffalo wings for me right now."

Without giving Otto a chance to respond, Tyrone pressed on, "Destiny Corporation has no prior experience in the entertainment industry. Mr. Sheridan, you might not understand how complex it is.

"Each industry has its own rules; you can't just barge in because you feel like it. Helen is under my protection, so there's no need for you to concern yourself with her."

Otto listened in silence, a faint smile on his lips. With a slight bow, he replied, "Thank you for the insight, Mr. Tyrone. Unfortunately, the world is full of those who chase after their goals, even when they face obstacles.

"I am one of those who seek opportunities in unlikely places. Whether I succeed or fail ultimately depends on my own skills, wouldn't you agree?"

Tyrone's lips curved into a smile, but his eyes remained steely and resolute. "Of course, but I won't be giving you that chance."

Helen squinted slightly and shot back, "Are you messing with me?"

"Not at all," Otto replied, his eyes narrowing with a playful glint. "Lina is certainly facing some difficulties, but with so many ears around, I'd prefer to keep things discreet and avoid being overheard."

"Tyrone isn't exactly an outsider," Helen countered. She also dismissed Mia as a serious threat, considering she was just a recent graduate and probably lacked any real scheming skills.

Otto shrugged. "People's loyalties can be unpredictable. Who's to say he wouldn't betray you?"

"I get it, I get it," Helen interrupted with a dismissive wave. "You're always so rational. Okay, just whisper it to me so only I can hear. Will that do?"

Otto had been anticipating this opportunity. As soon as Helen finished speaking, he leaned in and whispered into her ear, "Lina's husband's death might not be caused by any mysterious force after all."

Helen's eyes widened in surprise as she glanced at Otto. "What have you discovered?"
