He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 137

Once he bandaged his hand, Sebastian casually strolled back into the master bedroom.

Helena had just stepped out of the bathroom.

He was already leaning against the headboard in his pajamas.

Without a word, she slid under the covers on her side of the bed, turning her back to him.

He shot her a fleeting look but didn't push it.

Helena wasn't actually asleep; her nerves were frayed.

It didn't help that his phone kept vibrating relentlessly on the nightstand, notifications lighting up the screen.

She knew it was Janetta.

Shockingly, he didn't check it once.

They shared the same bed, yet felt lightyears apart.

The vibrating soon stopped, but the screen continued to flash in the dark.

He must have put it on silent.

The lights clicked off.

Helena kept her eyes shut, feigning sleep.

Only when her breathing steadied did Sebastian slip out from under the covers.

The moment the bedroom door clicked shut behind him, her eyes snapped open.

She knew exactly where he was going. He was going to Janetta.

His promise to stay away had been nothing but a cheap lie.

A numb, hollow sensation settled in her chest.

She closed her eyes again, letting sheer exhaustion drag her under.

Sebastian walked toward the kitchen. Passing a full-length mirror, he caught sight of the deep scratches etched into his back.

Helena had left them during their frantic tangle.
