Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 760

Aaron waved his hand dismissively. "That won't be necessary. Mom is getting older; we shouldn't trouble her. I just want to return to the company as soon as possible. The Boston family's extensive business empire must not falter under my watch!"

"It seems I'll never get through to you!" Melody exclaimed, exasperated by his stubbornness. "You're only concerned about your own interests!"

After giving Faye a stern look, Melody stormed out of the room in frustration.

Meanwhile, Faye couldn't help but feel a hint of satisfaction, a slight smile forming at the corners of her mouth.

"Mom, do you not realize you're still too inexperienced to challenge me?" Faye silently gloated.

"Faye," Aaron's voice suddenly rang out.

"Yes?" Faye replied, momentarily taken aback. She had been savoring her victory when his unexpected interruption startled her.

"Starting tomorrow, I'll be taking charge of the company again. You don't need to worry about that anymore. If you'd like to contribute, focus on coordinating with your uncles for Helen's homecoming ceremony.

"She has faced many hardships during her time away, so every detail of the celebration must be meticulously planned. It should be a grand and special occasion. We must ensure Helen feels cherished."

"That's only right. I'm also eager for Helen to come back soon," Faye agreed readily. Nonetheless, she had some reservations about stepping away from managing the company.

"But considering the recent major changes in the company, I believe it's wise for me to stay by your side as your assistant. The shareholders have grown more influential and assertive, and I fear you might become overwhelmed handling them alone."

"Very well. Let's proceed with your proposal," Aaron conceded without further debate.

Upon hearing this, Faye let out a sigh of relief. She offered a few insincere words of concern before excusing herself.

Inside, Aaron's gaze sharpened as he observed her departure.

The following day swiftly dawned.

True to his word, Aaron returned to the company and resumed his position in the CEO's office.

Faye stood before his desk with a man and a woman beside her. She introduced them, saying, "Dad, these are the assistants I've selected for you. They're here to support you in executing any decisions you make."

Aaron calmly assessed them before nodding in approval. "Well done. How considerate of you."

While Faye wore a serene smile outwardly, inwardly, she couldn't help but scoff with contempt.

So what if Aaron was back in the CEO's seat? After all, everyone at Boston Pharmaceuticals was under Faye's sway. His presence or absence made no difference.

It seemed Aaron was rather naive and laughable. Nevertheless, he would soon discover the frustration of being completely dependent on her every move.

As Faye contemplated this, the secretary knocked at the door behind her.

"Mr. Boston, there's a Mr. Chandler Newton here to see you," the secretary announced.

"Please, show him in." Aaron nodded. He then turned to Faye and instructed, "Could you kindly escort the others out first? I need to get to know Helen's fiancé."

"Of course."

Without pressing for more details, Faye turned and walked briskly toward the exit. As she brushed past Chandler at the doorway, they exchanged a meaningful glance.

Inside the CEO's office, Aaron's smile vanished as soon as Faye exited.

As Chandler entered, he was met by the commanding presence of a dignified and poised corporate

CEO.

"Good day, Mr. Boston," Chandler greeted as he settled into the seat opposite Aaron.

Aaron studied him silently for a moment before speaking deliberately, "I've heard you've recently left the Newton family and are now charting your own course. It seems you've also assumed leadership at Nexus Pharmaceutical Corporation. Is that correct?"

"It was simply a minor disagreement," Chandler replied casually.

At Timelight Manor, Dennis reclined on the sofa, leisurely swirling the highball glass in his hand. The deep crimson liquid inside danced with each motion, its alluring taste continually tempting him.

In one corner of the room, Helen was busy throwing darts.

Her focus was unwavering, her eyes in perfect alignment with the dart poised in her hand. Moments later, she released it swiftly, hitting the bullseye and displacing the previous dart.

"Damn, Helen, who got under your skin? That's some serious determination," Dennis remarked, savoring a sip of red wine.

Helen remained composed, her expression unchanged. She lifted her hand once more, ready to take aim again.

"Even without you bringing it up, I've heard about your father. It's astonishing how he mistook that criminal for innocent upon waking up.

"Not only did he let Faye off the hook, but he also didn't hold Oakwood Hospital accountable—his mercy seems boundless," Dennis remarked, his tone laced with sarcasm.

In an instant, Helen adjusted her aim, sending the dart straight toward Dennis.

Suddenly, a figure emerged from a nearby side door, intercepting the dart just moments before it would have struck Dennis.

Dennis turned his head belatedly and glanced over, jumping in alarm. "Goodness, are you trying to shut me up for good?"

With a swift motion, he retrieved the dart from the man standing in front of him. "I thought your talent was with needles, but it seems you're skilled with darts too. I wonder if Apex enjoys this game?"

"You never miss a chance to extract information from me, do you?" Helen narrowed her eyes, her expression turning grim.

"If you'd only speak up for yourself, I wouldn't have to deal with all this hassle, would I?" Dennis chuckled, unconcerned about appearances.

"Helen!"

As Jenson hurried in eagerly, he found himself greeted by Dennis' animated and lively demeanor.

"Are you Dennis Longan?" Jenson asked, looking skeptical. Wasn't this guy supposed to be all serious business according to the news?
