He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 422

He calmly signed the death certificate.

"The infant is gone. The hospital will handle it and wait for Mr. Hayes's further instructions," the doctor said calmly.

The assistant quickly took the baby.

The moment the assistant touched the child, he noticed she still had a faint breath.

But his face betrayed nothing. "I understand. I'll take care of it right now."

The assistant turned smoothly and walked out briskly.

According to Riverton customs.

A premature infant who died before reaching a month old was disposed of as Medical Waste.

Families usually wouldn't claim the remains, believing it brought Bad Omens to their lineage.

Under these circumstances, given the baby's special background, she would be sent to the hospital's morgue.

There, they would wait for Sebastian's final orders.

The assistant walked out of the camera's line of sight.

A figure in a white coat was waiting.

"She needs immediate resuscitation. This baby is incredibly strong. The surgical complication was deliberate," the assistant said concisely.

"As long as the baby can pull through this, we'll let Professor Cole perform the chest operation in three months. The survival rate will be very high."

"This baby actually survived the initial three-day critical period. Her medications were swapped earlier, which severely shocked her heart."

...

The assistant relayed every single detail to the other person.

The figure's expression was grave. "Mr. Campbell is waiting in the car. It's equipped with emergency life-support. We'll transfer her to another hospital immediately."

"Understood," the assistant replied without another word.

The baby was carefully handed over.

The other person then handed the assistant a black plastic bag.

"This is a premature infant of roughly the same age who just passed away. You can use it to cover your tracks."

"Okay."

From start to finish, the exchange took less than three minutes.

The assistant hurriedly headed toward the freezer from another direction.

But the baby in his arms was now the deceased infant destined for disposal.

Until finally, Helena looked up and met his gaze calmly.

Sebastian didn't look away.

"Sebastian, Hope is gone. We have no ties left between us. Can't we just end this?"

Her voice was eerily calm.

Completely devoid of any emotion.

Sebastian frowned. "Helena, I told you..."

This time, before he could finish, Helena cut him off.

"Sebastian, you can proceed with whatever transfers you need. But our relationship is over; this is completely meaningless. What good does forcing me to stay do?" she asked bluntly.

Sebastian felt a surge of irritation.

He had held all the power before, but now the dynamic had entirely shifted into her hands.

Before, it seemed no matter how hard he tried to push her away, she refused to leave.

Now that he refused to let go, she was the one desperate to walk away.

Sebastian was utterly unwilling to accept it.
