Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 757

Amidst his heated argument with Melody, Aaron found himself distracted by the sight of Helen and Chandler.

As he observed their affectionate gestures, a knot tightened in his chest, deepening his unease with each passing moment.

From that point on, he couldn't concentrate on anything Melody was saying.

"No, I can't agree with that," Aaron replied, his expression darkening. The tension in the hospital room rose in an instant.

Melody was taken aback. Just as she was about to respond, Aaron tentatively continued, "Bee is my daughter, the cherished jewel of the Boston family. She shouldn't rush into marriage with just anyone!"

Chandler was momentarily stunned, taken aback by Aaron's unexpectedly strong reaction.

Helen barely knew Aaron, so she couldn't ignore a deep-seated resistance to his attempt to exert control.

"This is my life, and I will decide for myself," she declared defiantly, her long-suppressed resentment surfacing as she locked eyes with him.

Upon reuniting with Melody, Helen was confronted by emotions of abandonment and neglect that had long been buried.

These internal struggles collided with Aaron's sudden display of dominance, leading to an unexpected emotional outburst.

While Helen was determined not to let her emotions overwhelm her, she refused to passively accept the situation and be manipulated.

"At your age, you haven't seen enough of the world to make such decisions," Aaron remarked pointedly. "Judging a man isn't just about hearing sweet talk," he added, giving Chandler a meaningful look.

"And what about you? Aren't you a man too?" Helen asked bluntly.

"That's different, for goodness' sake," he retorted, his brow furrowing deeply. "I'm your father—the one man in this world who would never hurt you."

"That's not necessarily true," Helen retorted sharply. "If you were never going to hurt me, then how did I end up abandoned and alone?"

The way Faye effortlessly referred to her as "Bee" seemed to flow naturally from her tongue; it appeared that everyone hailing from such esteemed families possessed a natural talent for acting.

"Rest assured, Helen will manage just fine without your input!" Melody snapped, her tone edged with irritation.

"Mom, why do you always have to talk to me like that? I've already explained that everything before was a misunderstanding. I did what was necessary to protect our family. Now that Bee has returned, why are you so eager to push me away?"

As Faye spoke, a wave of self-pity washed over her, tears threatening to spill from her eyes.

"Hmph, you're just an adopted daughter anyway. What right—"

"That's enough!" Aaron interjected sharply, his expression darkening. "Adopted daughter? Faye and Bee are both our children and integral parts of this family. Your confusion is no excuse for making such accusations!"

"You're the one confused, asleep at the wheel! Bee saved you, yet you won't stand up for her. How can you defend a murderer?"
