Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 506

Samantha's heart raced when she realized Helen had caught up to her. She was determined not to let Helen surpass her.

But her focus on Helen threw off her rhythm, and it caused Samatha to slip two steps while climbing.

"Go, Helen! Hurry up and pass Samantha!" Callie shouted from below.

Helen looked up and grabbed onto the left corner. Then, she stepped up with her right foot. Her pace was steady, and her endurance was impressive. Soon, she overtook Samantha and reached the top first.

"Yay! Helen, you're amazing!"

After Helen reached the top, Samantha made it up as well. By now, her arrogance had vanished, and she reluctantly admitted defeat. "I lost," she said.

Helen simply nodded and remarked, "We probably don't need to compete in the final round, right?"

"No, we don't. I underestimated you this time. But I won't give up. Someday, I'll surpass you."

"We'll see about that," Helen replied. She paused briefly before saying. "But aren't you supposed to keep your promises?"

Samantha felt a bit embarrassed by the remark. After all, she had initiated the challenge herself, and now she had to swallow her pride and admit defeat.

"I'm sorry, Helen. I apologize for my behavior."

"It's okay, I accept your apology."

Then, Callie approached them, and she glanced at Samantha disdainfully before turning back to Helen. "You're not just talented, but you're also humble. You're miles ahead of some people."

Upon hearing this, Samantha couldn't hide her embarrassment. She turned and walked away.

While looking at her departing figure, Callie couldn't resist sticking out her tongue.

Helen quickly pulled her and said, "Alright, training's over for today. Let's grab some food."

The instructor quickly added, "If you pass their tests, sure. And with your skills, I think you'd do well."

But Helen wasn't too excited about it.

"I appreciate the offer, but I'm not interested."

The instructor seemed disappointed but said, "No worries! If you change your mind, just let me know."

"Thank you."

...

Back in the dormitory, Callie couldn't resist asking, "What did the instructor want with you?"

Helen shrugged. "Oh, nothing important. Just casual conversation."
