Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 133

Drafting the contract was well within Helen's capabilities. After discussing and finalizing the terms, they signed the agreement.

Within minutes, Chandler received a notification that the funds were being transferred.

After concluding the deal, Helen left with Chandler. She was still in shock and left speechless. Eventually, she managed to express her admiration. "Mr. Newton, I find myself increasingly impressed by you."

Chandler glanced back at her with a hint of a smile. "Ms. Mayhew, you flatter me. It was just good fortune."

As if struck by a revelation, Helen eagerly followed up, "Mr. Newton, perhaps you could teach me how to select stones?"

Chandler raised an eyebrow. "Are you interested as well?"

Helen nodded eagerly. Anything related to making money piqued her interest.

Chandler then remarked, "Ms. Mayhew, you and I are neither family nor close friends. There's really no need for me to discuss this topic with you. Besides, I've paid a premium for your translation services. If you wish to learn about gemstone gambling, shouldn't there be a fee involved?"

Helen knew all too well there was no such thing as a free lunch.

She inquired in a determined manner, "How much do you want? If it's within my means, I'm open to it."

However, Chandler countered with a question of his own. "Do I look like I'm in need of money?"

Helen was well aware he wasn't short on funds. She wondered what he wanted. Suddenly wary, she asked, "What are you getting at?"

Chandler found her reaction amusing. "What do you think I'm after?"

Helen was momentarily stumped and shook her head in confusion.

Chandler didn't object to this. "That's fine, but each session must last at least an hour."

With an agreement reached, Helen was eager to start. "Since we've settled that, why not begin with gemstone gambling now? We're already here, so let's not waste this opportunity."

However, Chandler paused to think. "Not today. Let's stay another day and come back tomorrow."

Helen was about to ask why but reconsidered upon seeing Chandler's expression. If he suggested returning tomorrow, then that was what they'd do.

"So, what now? Should we head back?"

Chandler looked at her curiously. "Aren't you hungry?"
