Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 630

Helen gasped sharply, her eyes widening in astonishment as she looked down at Samantha's seemingly flat belly.

It was difficult to comprehend that in such a short period, new life had already started to form within.

Nonetheless, Ronald was far from the ideal partner.

Helen found it puzzling. After all, Samantha was a high-achieving student at the esteemed University of Glendale, receiving the finest education in the country.

With such a promising future ahead, why would she commit herself to someone like Ronald?

Adding to the tension, the looming possibility of Ronald's fiancée, Faye, discovering the situation was daunting.

If that were to happen, Samantha's life would undoubtedly be at risk, along with the future of the child growing inside her womb.

However, Samantha appeared oblivious to the impending danger. Excitedly, she grasped Helen's hand and guided it to her abdomen, announcing, "Helen, you're going to be my child's godmother."

Godmother?

Upon hearing those words, Helen instinctively pulled her hand away. Being a young woman herself, the notion of marriage felt burdensome.

What possible reason could she have for accepting such a symbolic role?

Helen had earlier cautioned Samantha against any continued involvement with Ronald. But judging by Samantha's current demeanor, it seemed she was resolute in her chosen course.

"With your pregnancy, it's important to discuss marriage with Ronald soon. If your child is born without legitimacy, it could complicate matters for both you and your child."

Helen regarded this as her final warning, a subtle acknowledgment of their past camaraderie. With their paths now parting, further discussion seemed futile.

As Helen's words trailed off, she offered a gentle smile, preparing to depart.

To her surprise, Samantha extended her arms, halting Helen in her tracks. "You're the only one I trust now. Are you truly going to leave me like this?"

Upon hearing this, Helen thought to herself, "Your social circle must be sparse indeed. Despite all these years in university, you haven't found a single confidant. Instead, you're reaching out to your lifelong rival for help."

At that moment, Helen recognized that Samantha's bravado and resistance during military training were just a facade, fragile and easily broken.

Nevertheless, Helen knew that Samantha's attempt to manipulate her morally stemmed from a different underlying motive.

Despite her efforts, both of them still stumbled and ended up falling together near the door.

Helen's head struck the door with a heavy thud. Instinctively, she reached up to touch the spot where it had hit.

But before she could fully grasp what had happened, Samantha's whimpering cries broke through, "Helen, my stomach hurts so much, please help me…"

Witnessing the scene, a passing classmate kindly called for an ambulance, and both women were swiftly taken to the hospital.

Soon after, Helen found herself waiting anxiously outside the emergency room. While she awaited news of Samantha's condition, Chandler's call suddenly came through.

Bringing the phone to her ear, Helen found comfort in Chandler's reassuring voice. "I'm downstairs at your dorm. Let's grab lunch together," he offered.

"I'm at the hospital," Helen replied.

Chandler's tone immediately shifted, concern evident in his voice. "What happened? Which hospital are you at?"

"It's hard to explain right now. It's the nearest one to the university. Could you—"
