Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 567

Chandler didn't respond. But the next second he pulled Helen into an embrace.

After a moment, he said, "I know what you're thinking, and it's exactly what I just said. I can't allow him to keep causing trouble. What did he say to you this time?"

Chandler got straight to the point. Helen remembered what Zac had said and felt awkward. Telling Chandler the truth would enrage him.

"It's nothing. Just some immature ideas to try to get me to take sides." Helen smiled, trying to avoid the topic.

Chandler hesitated briefly before asking, "Did my mom talk to you?"

"She did," Helen answered truthfully.

Priscilla had sought her out. It was impossible to hide Priscilla's dislike for her.

"Don't listen to her. You're mine, and... I'm sorry she's making things difficult for you. But trust me and give me time to handle this, alright?"

Chandler stroked her head, speaking softly. She believed his words, but she didn't believe that Priscilla's attitude toward her would change.

"Your mom favors Kiara Randle. I think, Chandler, I don't want to make things difficult for you either." Helen sighed deeply.

Her words made Chandler turn serious. "What are you saying? Can't our relationship withstand this test?"

His face darkened and his breathing grew heavy.

"That's not what I meant. I… "

Chandler smirked playfully. "Of course, I didn't reject you when you were ugly. So now, you're responsible for me."

Helen scoffed. "What do you mean by my ugliness? If I was so ugly before and you still liked me, then you were the blind one. How can you hold me responsible for that?"

"Well, who else if not you? Everyone in the city of Aguilisco knows we're engaged," Chandler replied, but Helen sensed a hint of grievance in his tone.

"We're not married yet though."

"Helen Spencer!" Chandler raised his voice. His face was serious and cold.

"Alright, alright. I was just joking. Why are you getting mad here?" Helen put her arm around him.
