He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 476

Helena's face drained of color.

Her mind flashed to the missing divorce decree, realizing a variable had gone wrong.

"Until those certificates are in our hands, the marriage stands," Sebastian stated coldly.

"We went to the bureau! The only reason we didn't get the certificates was because some intern lost the folder, but the process was finished!" she screamed at him.

Sebastian simply stared at her in deafening silence.

She had seen the paperwork finalized.

What she didn't know was that behind closed doors, Sebastian had used his power to flag the application, effectively resetting the entire process.

Legally, she was still Mrs. Hayes.

How dare Julian touch his wife?

Sebastian knew exactly why he had stalled the divorce.

He had let her walk out that day because she had looked entirely broken, hovering on the edge of the abyss, and he hadn't dared to push her over the ledge.

But the second she showed signs of recovery—of moving on with another man—his obsessive possessiveness ignited into a raging inferno.

He was never going to let her go.

"Without the decree, there is no divorce," he finalized, his expression darkening.

Blinded by fury, Helena slapped him.

The crack of her hand against his cheek echoed like a gunshot in the tiled stall.

She stood panting, having thrown all her strength into the blow.

A stark red handprint bloomed across Sebastian's face.

He didn't even blink.

Helena shoved him and lunged for the latch.

But in a flash of movement, he grabbed her by the hips and slammed her back onto the closed toilet lid.

His mouth crashed down on hers, annihilating any protest she tried to make.

Her absolute disgust radiated through every frantic movement.
