Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 553

However, Jenson couldn't ask. Helen did not have as many thoughts as Jenson

After hanging up the phone, she set off to attend the math award ceremony. She had promised Gerard, otherwise, she wouldn't have cared much about such an occasion.

However, before she went in, Chandler intercepted her at the door. Helen was startled and annoyed. Why was he in such a hurry to come after her? She was going to return his phone anyway.

"Here, your phone." Helen felt a surge of emotion, but she thought maybe he was in a hurry to get his phone back.

"Do you think I came here to get my phone from you?" Chandler snapped, looking very displeased.

"Then what do you want from me?" Helen asked.

"Helen." For the first time, Chandler stressed her name and stepped toward her. As the distance closed, she could feel his anger.

"Do you think I'm not worth your trust? Am I not important to you?" Chandler's lips pressed into a thin line, his face extremely unpleasant.

"No," Helen denied. Before this, she had wanted to avoid the engagement, so she came up with this idea.

But as she gradually got to know him, she fell for him, didn't she? And she confessed. She didn't mean to hide her other identities.

As people trickled into the venue, Helen lowered her voice. "Can I explain myself later? I need to attend this banquet now. I promised my professor. I can't just ditch him."

"Let's go in together, okay?" Helen asked Chandler, pursing her lips.

Chandler sighed softly and pulled Helen close, his arms encircling her waist. Though his touch was gentle, his words carried a tender reproach that was hard to define.

"Wait and see how I deal with you later!"

His words left Helen gaping. Although she felt awkward and unsure how to react, she couldn't break away from the comfort of leaning against him.

By the time Helen and Chandler entered, everyone was already there. The host on stage began announcing the list of winners starting from tenth place.
