Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1463

If Vincent had made this demand before administering the medication to Cameron, Helen would have agreed without hesitation.

However, she had gathered her thoughts and realized that Vincent was offering the medication for free to show her it could cure Chandler. Once he had her trust, he would be able to make his demands without hesitation.

Helen knew that if she allowed him to manipulate her, she'd be stepping right into his trap.

With that in mind, she turned on her heel and walked away decisively.

"Wait," Vincent called after her, seemingly relenting. "Alright, how about this—I just want you to divorce him. You don't have to marry me. That seems fair, right?"

Helen paused but didn't turn back. She weighed her options, considering whether she could negotiate for better terms.

Vincent recognized her intelligence and understood her temperament.

Worried she might walk away, he quickly said, "The entire Whitlock family knows you're meant to be my future wife. With you married to someone else, it's honestly quite embarrassing for me. You know the true value of this deal; you can't let me come out at a disadvantage."

"Fine." Helen turned to face him, her expression steady. "I'll agree, but you also need to provide the medicine to treat my grandmother."

"You're quite bold with your demands," Vincent remarked, turning to retrieve a file from his assistant.

As he pulled out the documents, he teased, "With your persuasive skills, you should really consider marrying me. We'd make an unbeatable business duo."

"I can conquer the business world on my own. Why would I want the hassle?" Helen's face remained cool and composed, though anxiety simmered beneath the surface.

She was taking a gamble, confident that Vincent wouldn't pass up the chance to leverage her situation.

Having invested so much, he definitely wouldn't want to leave empty-handed. If he ended up with nothing, his resentment would be inevitable.

As long as he felt that way, she could secure the life-saving medication with minimal compromise.

When Helen returned, everyone was gathered in Chandler's room, including Taylor and Kyle.

"Helly, I've already put a bounty out. I'm sure we'll find a way to save him soon," Taylor said, worry etched on his face as he noticed her pale complexion.

"The organization has sent out a message as well," Kyle added.

Helen nodded wearily. "Thank you, but you all should go now. I need to focus on Chandler's treatment."

"You look like you can barely hold a needle. Are you even fit to treat him?" Priscilla questioned.

"Is this really the right time for your comments?" Louis snapped, clearly annoyed.

"That's not what I'm implying," Priscilla clarified quickly. "What I mean is, she's already drained from treating Chandler and then hurrying to the hospital for Cameron. She really needs some time to rest."
