Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1742

"Don't go, Mr. Vanderpool! If you're not satisfied with the terms, we can negotiate further. 20% or even 25% is possible." Helen pretended to get up and chase after Thorley, but he didn't listen at all.

Seeing him walk out of the door, she smiled and turned to shrug at Chandler. "Oh no, the deal fell through. What should we do?"

Chandler got up and walked over, wrapping his arm around her slender waist and pulling her into his embrace. "Isn't this exactly what you want, Mrs. Newton?"

Chandler playfully scratched his chin. "You too."

From then on, Chandler and Helen had become the miserly and greedy businessmen in Thorley's eyes.

In the evening, Adrian returned home and pushed open the door with an exquisite gift bag. Upon entering, he saw Georgia sitting in the living room. Her assistants were scattered in various corners of the room.

Ursula sat stiffly on a sofa next to Georgia, constantly casting Adrian furtive glances. No one would visit without a reason. Adrian knew that Georgia was not here with good intentions.

"You failed to kill me last time, so now you're giving it another shot?" Adrian glared at Georgia with displeasure.

"You don't have to be so hostile. My men were too rough last time, so today, I came to apologize and check on you." Georgia feigned to be concerned.

Children were always the best leverage to threaten parents, but Adrian actually only cared about Ursula. The child was merely an extension of his affection for her.

Georgia didn't see through him, and he had no intention of exposing his weakness as well. Thus, he played along by clenching his fists and gritting his teeth until the veins on his forehead bulged.

He made a furious face and warned, "If you dare to harm Ursula and my child, I'll end myself and leave you all with nothing."

Georgia got up and looked at him with disdain. "I know you're not afraid of death, but I wonder if you fear them dying before you."
