Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 53

The hall was now filled with people. All eyes were fixed on the large screen.

Chandler had just arrived and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"

A servant quietly filled him in. "It's said that Ms. Spencer pushed Ms. Leonard into the pond. The elder is about to check the surveillance."

Chandler's brow lifted slightly. Would Helen do such a thing? What would she gain?

Taylor, who was also aware of the incident in the garden, quickly approached Helen. "Helly, are you okay?"

Helen recalled their meeting in the garden.

She worried that their meeting had been captured on footage as well. She whispered to Taylor, who swiftly slipped away from the crowd.

Everyone's gaze was glued to the screen, anticipating the outcome.

Who knew that two minutes in, the screen suddenly went dark.

"What's happening?" someone asked.

Margaret sighed in relief, unaware that Tyrone was observing her. His eyes narrowed slightly in suspicion.

The screen remained dark for about half a minute before returning to life.

It displayed what had happened in the garden but omitted the scenes featuring Helen and Taylor together, jumping straight to Margaret and Helen's meeting.

"So, were all your words and actions earlier just an act?"

Tears streamed down Margaret's face, but she now seemed nothing but insincere to Tyrone.

"Do you realize that your actions have turned my good impression and complete trust in you into a joke?"

"Let me explain! It's not what it seems," Margaret tried to defend herself, unable to believe how things had unfolded.

"Now that the truth is clear, Ms. Leonard. I believe you owe Helen an apology," Esmond stated sternly.

His usual kindly demeanor toward Margaret was nowhere to be seen.
