He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 386

As long as there was even a sliver of hope, she had to fight for it.

At the very least, when she finally passed away and met her daughter in the afterlife, she would have a clear conscience.

She would know she fought with everything she had, even if fate was cruel.

But now, Sebastian was denying her even that chance.

"Because if she dies in surgery, your stock transfer stops! You want to keep her barely alive on machines just long enough to secure your inheritance!"

"And once you have the shares, she'll be entirely useless to you."

"You're just going to let her have the surgery then, purely to clear your own guilty conscience, and then tell me she didn't make it off the table, aren't you?"

Helena exposed his sick, calculated plan for everyone to hear.

Sebastian couldn't argue back.

He couldn't deny it.

The entire reason for this delay was the stock transfer.

He stood there, frozen like a statue.

"Sebastian, you are truly a monster." Helena suddenly laughed.

It was a broken, weeping laugh—a sound of pure agony.

"Helena, I told you, she won't survive the surgery anyway!" Sebastian stressed, lowering his voice.

It was as if she couldn't hear him.

Her brain automatically filtered out his excuses.

"Sebastian, I want to see her!" she demanded, pressing her only remaining wish.

"She is my daughter. I carried her for months, and I have the right to see her."

"I don't care what state she's in, I demand to see her."

Her words rang out with unshakeable resolve.

She remained on the floor.

Whether she lacked the strength to stand or simply refused to, no one knew.

"I don't care if you want me to drop dead right here, I am going to see her." She refused to back down.

Sebastian stared at her silently, neither agreeing nor refusing.

At this point, all pretenses had been violently stripped away.

There was no real reason to stop her.

She looked up at him with a devastated expression.

Suddenly, she forced herself up and bolted madly toward the NICU.

"Mrs. Hayes!" The nurse gasped in horror.

Sebastian reached out on reflex to grab her arm.

But his fingers met empty air.

She had already sprinted past him.

Without a second thought, he chased after her.

She was a physically broken woman, yet in that moment, she moved with terrifying speed.

It was as if every last ounce of her life force had erupted all at once.

Not even the nurses stationed at the NICU doors could stop her.

Helena burst inside.

Through the glass of the incubator, she finally laid eyes on her daughter.

It was the first time she had seen her since the birth.
