Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1159

Megan's words immediately provoked dissatisfaction from her classmates.

"Oh, so according to you, we should all be like robots, just focusing on studying and not having any free time?"

"Exactly! Shouldn't things be fair and just? Helen couldn't have caused trouble on her own. Everyone was involved. Either no one gets punished, or the whole class gets punished. No one should get off scot-free!"

"Why should we?" Megan retorted defiantly. "I'm not like you guys, acting as if you've never seen a celebrity before. What's the big deal? She can write a couple of songs and flirt with men on camera for attention. I don't want to be associated with someone like that!"

As soon as she finished, everyone's expressions toward Megan changed subtly.

Helen shook her head and smiled contemptuously.

She admired Megan in some ways. Getting into this program proved her exceptional logical and analytical skills. But she lacked common sense. The words she just said were aimed at Helen, but they insulted the whole class.

She thought she was superior, but at this moment, she had become the public enemy of the entire class. And yet, she was still pleased with herself, thinking she was pure and untainted.

"Well, thank you, Megan, for not wanting to associate with me," Helen said generously.

She added, "However, I don't think there's anything wrong with asking someone to take responsibility for their actions when they've done something wrong. You accuse me of being relentless when I'm in the right. But what are you doing now, Megan?"

Edmund watched as the smile on Otto's face disappeared the moment he turned. An inexplicable chill ran down his spine. He gritted his teeth and nervously walked out.

In the hallway, Otto stood by the railing with his hands behind his back, slightly tilting his head as if serenely admiring the morning sun.

Edmund approached him and stopped about a foot away, his tone measured. "Mr. Sheridan, what brings you here?"

Hearing this, Otto turned and lowered his head with a faint smile. He slowly removed his white gloves and suddenly slapped Edmund. It was hard enough for him to turn his head.

It took Edmund a moment to react. He felt a numbness on his face and a slight metallic taste in his mouth. He touched his mouth with his hand and saw blood.
