Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1170

"Don't be bothered," Chandler said, clapping his hands as he walked over to Helen. "If you look downstairs, you'll see that it was the security staff who let me in personally."

He then took Helen's hand and interlocked their fingers in front of Edmund.

"You…" Edmund was momentarily stunned, unable to find words as he stared at their joined hands.

"Is it illegal for us to hold hands, Mr. Murdoch?" Chandler deliberately lifted Helen's hand to show it off.

Edmund sneered, his disdain for Helen growing. He underestimated her if he thought she was just a student. Not only had she captivated Otto, but now she was also tangled up with another man, turning the school into her hunting ground.

With his anger rising, Edmund snapped back to reality and shouted at the security guards below, "What are you doing just standing there? There's an outsider in the class! Get him out now!"

"That's not possible, Mr. Murdoch. That's a student's guardian. We can't kick him out!" the head of security responded.

"Guardian?" Edmund looked back at Chandler and Helen. Their obvious intimacy made it clear they were a couple.

Chandler said while gazing at Helen with affection, "To be exact, I'm Helen's husband, and I believe I have the right to know how she is treated at school."

"Husband?" Edmund was even more confused. He wasn't married, and here was a student presenting her husband to him.

Chandler spoke in a gentle, refined manner that seemed like a normal conversation to outsiders. But Edmund, understanding the underlying attack, was left speechless, feeling as if he was being slowly boiled.

In the silence that followed, Chandler put his arm around Helen's shoulders and continued in a mild tone.

"This is the first and last time I'll say this. I hope you'll consider others' opinions in the future when implementing your 'brilliant' teaching methods. Also, as Helen's guardian, I am aware of and approve of her outings. So there's no need for your sarcasm."

With that, he gave a polite smile and left with Helen, not looking back.
