Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 395

Claire was confused. Then, Margaret unexpectedly took a stack of cash from her bag and stuffed it in Claire's hand. "I left something behind, and I came back for it. I hope you won't tell anyone about seeing me today."

Claire looked at the cash in her hands. It was at least double her monthly salary. She wondered why Margaret would give her so much money for no reason.

However, Margaret thought it wasn't enough for Claire. So, she took out another stack. "Take them. Just keep your mouth shut."

Claire thought Margaret was being too generous and wondered if it would be wise to accept the money.

However, she had to pay her rent soon and was running low on money. So, Claire scanned the area and accepted the money. "Don't worry, Ms. Leonard! I'll keep it a secret."

Then, Margaret left in satisfaction.

When Helen returned to the room, she could sense that something was wrong. Someone had touched her sketches. "Claire, did someone come in after I left earlier?"

Although Claire was surprised, she didn't show it on her face. "I was the only one here at noon. No one else came."

Helen thought she was imagining it and stopped dwelling on the matter.

Helen nodded. "Alright. You may get back to your work now."

After Claire left, Helen grabbed her pen and started working again. She was serious as she drew her sketches. In fact, she was so focused that she forgot about the time and worked until night fell.

Chandler opened the door and was met with her back to him. Then, he knocked.

Helen didn't look up at the sound. She thought it was Claire. "Claire, I'm feeling thirsty. Please help me grab a drink."

Helen thought about it and responded, "Let's have some stew. It's been a while since I last had some."

"Are you sure? It might be too spicy," said Chandler.

Helen nodded repeatedly. "Yes. Let's go."

After that, Helen kept her sketches and brought them away. Chandler had never rejected her requests. So when she said she wanted some stew, he brought her to a famous restaurant that specialized in it.

The business was booming, and there was a long queue outside. When Chandler and Helen arrived, the business owner recognized them. "Mr. Newton, you're here! I've reserved a room upstairs for you."

Chandler nodded and said to Helen, "Let's go. It's time for some stew."
