Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1250

"Really?"

"Are you kidding me?"

Hunter and Edmund spoke at the same time.

"We have been following the time shown by the classroom clock during classes. Why should we believe you when you say that the clock runs fast?" Edmund questioned Helen.

"Helen, just accept the fact that you've missed the test. If you plead with Mr. Reddick and me, we might excuse you. But now you're making up lies and trying to muddle through. This reflects serious issues with your character. I absolutely won't keep such a student in my class."

Hunter was about to give a few words of advice, but Helen spoke first, "Mr. Murdoch, did you really grow up abroad? Even politicians are far inferior to you in terms of being overcritical."

"Helen, you're late for the exam. Do you still want to make a scene and disrupt other students' exams now?" Edmund's tone grew harsher.

"It seems like you're the one who disrupted their exams, Mr. Murdoch." Helen rolled her eyes and walked toward her seat.

"Stop right there!" Edmund dashed forward, grabbing Helen's wrist and trying to drag her out. "Helen, you shall be driven out for disrupting the order of the examination room."

"Let go." Helen was polite at first. After being pulled by Edmund, she shook his hand off with a strong force. "Please have some self-respect."

She hated physical contact with unfamiliar people the most. Now, she felt that every cell in her body was itching and aching.

Helen wore a grim expression without any smile, and her presence was eerily cold.

Meeting her gaze, Edmund felt like he had seen Otto for a moment, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

"Mr. Murdoch." Madelyn could no longer hold back and stood up to defend Helen. "Helen didn't lie. The clock is indeed 15 minutes fast, so she isn't late."

"Tristan, this has nothing to do with you. Focus on your papers." Edmund was somewhat polite to him.

"But I'm the class representative. If I can't speak up for my classmate, what qualifications do I have to be one?" Tristan said firmly but respectfully.

These words rendered Edmund speechless, who could only keep silent and listen as Tristan continued.

"The exam notice you posted in the group chat was based on internet time. If you don't acknowledge using internet time, then the '8:00 am tomorrow' you mentioned can also be interpreted as the day after tomorrow or any other day.

"Therefore, Helen didn't misread the time; it was you who made a mistake with the exam time."

After saying that, Tristan sat down calmly and picked up his felt-tip pen to answer the questions. But the other people in the classroom were utterly stunned by his words.
