Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 724

"Mr. Newton, please hold on!"

Chandler and Helen abruptly stopped at the company entrance. As they turned, they noticed a middle-aged man impeccably dressed in a suit approaching them.

"Hello, Mr. Townsend Senior," Chandler greeted calmly.

It wasn't Chandler's memory guiding him; the man before them was unmistakably Edgar Townsend, president of Townsend's Car Dealership and Ivan's father.

Chandler remembered Ivan's role in falsifying evidence for Ronald and Chad while he was assisting Helen with her investigation.

"You must be Ms. Spencer," Edgar greeted, extending his hand toward Helen. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Helen briefly glanced at his hand but didn't respond. Even without Chandler's clarification, she could easily discern the man's identity.

In Glendale, it seemed that anyone wealthy with the Townsend surname had some connection to Ivan.

Edgar's hand lingered awkwardly in midair for a moment. Noticing Helen's lack of response, he withdrew it reluctantly.

He maintained his composure, showing neither embarrassment nor anger. He seemed uninterested in seizing the opportunity to lash out.

Helen couldn't help but give him a second glance, teasingly remarking, "Mr. Townsend Senior, your manners are quite impeccable. It's ironic how your son is the complete opposite."

Edgar smiled sheepishly. "I must admit that I've fallen short in parenting. Please forgive my failings."

Helen refrained from further comment, silently observing Edgar. She was curious to see when he would eventually advocate for Ivan.

Much to Helen's astonishment, Edgar remained conspicuously silent about Ivan's release even after Chandler had spoken.

"Mr. Townsend Senior, what brings you here?" Chandler asked.

"Well, I've been considering that Newton Group might need financial support recently. The Townsend family happens to have some available funds. Mr. Newton, do you think there might be an opportunity for us to assist you?" Edgar remarked calmly.

His gaze was sincere and unguarded, his polished appearance contributing to his dignified demeanor. Helen briefly wondered if she had misjudged him.

"Seems like you've got a tough side," Helen said wryly.

"Well, experience has taught me that hesitation only leads to worse outcomes," Edgar replied.

Helen maintained her silence, offering no rebuttal; Edgar's statement was undeniably true.

Ivan's current demeanor hadn't formed overnight. It was likely the consequence of prolonged indulgence.

"With all that we've discussed, Mr. Newton, would you be willing to consider my proposal?" Edgar asked, deftly advancing the conversation.

After a moment's reflection, Chandler raised a pointed question, "Everyone in Glendale knows that the Lindvalls are set on taking down my family. Unfortunately, we're also losing ground. Mr. Townsend Senior, aren't you worried about the potential of losing everything by making a significant investment in me?"

Edgar's smile grew broader at Chandler's words. "Townsend's Car Dealership has thrived due to my sharp investment foresight. I'm confident I won't falter this time, either."

With that, Edgar handed Chandler a bank card. "The password is six zeros. Here's a modest one billion dollars as a gesture of goodwill."
