Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1881

"You two are here tearing each other apart, while Aiden is out there living without a care. Isn't that exactly what your enemies want? You're just adding more pain to the people who actually care about you. If I were Lucy and had a brother and boyfriend like this, I'd rather be dead."

It was often the case that those immersed in a situation were blind to its full scope, while outsiders could see things clearly. Abigail's words struck deep, finally awakening the two men to the truth.

Taylor and Hugo shared a look, an unspoken understanding passing between them. In that quiet moment, their silent reconciliation was made.

"Don't worry. Aiden won't stay so arrogant for much longer. We'll have our chance to avenge Lucy," Helen said, her words easing the tension.

Soon after, she motioned for Abigail to join her in another room.

Noticing Helen's cryptic expression, Abigail grew cautious. "Is there something you need from me, Ms. Kaylee?"

"I suppose so." Helen took Abigail's hand, her expression turning serious. "Lucy's situation was a wake-up call. If our enemies are willing to go this far, we're facing many hidden dangers ahead.

"There's a real risk of collateral damage if we fail to share crucial information in time. That's why I've decided to tell you everything."

"Everything?" Abigail asked, her attention now fully on Helen.

Helen deactivated her voice modulator and spoke once more, her voice returning to its familiar, captivating tone. "Gail, can you still recognize me?"

Abigail's cold, distant eyes instantly brightened. "Helen, is it really you?"

She gripped Helen's hand tightly, holding it in her palm. "You're not dead… You're still alive!"

Abigail laughed through her tears. Before Helen could respond, she threw her arms around her neck, pulling her into a tight embrace. "As long as you're alive, that's all that matters. Hahaha, this is amazing, Helen! I love you so much!"

Helen, too, struggled to hold back her tears. She gently patted Abigail's back, comforting her as one would a child. "You silly goose."

"Come on, let me see your face. Take off the mask." Abigail felt as though she were dreaming, eager for this moment to be real.

"No, it's okay," Helen responded gently. "I have some scars on my face, and they're still healing. When they're completely gone, I'll show you."

"So what if you have scars? Scars or not, you're still my best friend. Come on, Helen, let me see!" Abigail insisted, finally letting go of her reservations.

"You'll still need to help with that," Helen said firmly.

"Why?" Abigail asked, visibly confused.

The moment she learned that Aiden had orchestrated Taylor's arrest, Abigail realized he was nothing but trouble.

Considering everything that had happened between Hugo and Lucy, her urge to call off the engagement intensified. She could no longer stand the thought of waiting another day.

"Don't rush, just listen to me. I'll soon have the evidence to prove Aiden's crimes, but that alone won't be enough to secure his conviction.

"What we need is for you to convince your father to offer Aiden an incentive. He's too greedy to resist the chance to become your family's son-in-law," Helen explained.

"I understand. We'll be patient and wait for the right moment. So, what's my next step?"

"Have your father…"
