He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 1019

The mother and daughter settled into the Kensei Grill and ordered their favorite cuts of meat.

The restaurant was quite famous in the Capital, specializing in high-end Japanese barbecue.

Skye absolutely loved it.

The ambiance was superb, featuring private dining rooms that ensured a peaceful, uninterrupted meal.

It had become Skye's favorite spot over the past two months.

And Helena was more than happy to indulge her.

"I'm so sorry, Ms. Wallace, but we're fully booked on private rooms today," the waiter apologized sheepishly.

Helena blinked in surprise.

"The main dining area is fine, then," she quickly replied.

"Right away. Please follow me," the waiter nodded.

Helena wasn't upset; after all, she hadn't made a reservation.

But suddenly, the club manager hurried over to intercept her.

"Ms. Wallace, if you don't mind sharing, one of our VIP guests has agreed to split their room," the manager offered smoothly. "We'll draw the privacy screen, so it will still feel completely separate. You won't disturb each other, though you will lose the window view."

"That works," Helena agreed.

Without missing a beat, the manager escorted them toward the VIP section.

By the time they stepped inside, the thick privacy screen had already been drawn down the middle of the room.

It functioned just like a secluded booth, creating a completely isolated space.

Helena guided Skye to her seat and politely thanked the manager.

She quickly placed their order, sticking to all of Skye's favorites.

Since neither of them had huge appetites, they didn't order too much.

The manager bowed out quietly.

A moment later, a waiter stepped in to handle the grilling.

Helena couldn't help but wonder who the generous VIP was.

Usually, people who booked these exclusive rooms hated sharing them.

They paid a premium specifically for total privacy.

Right then, footsteps echoed from the corridor.

Helena fell silent, listening to the approaching sounds.

It seemed the mysterious patron had finally arrived.

A second later, a soft, melodic woman's voice drifted through the screen.
