He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 497

Since this was Helena and Sebastian's child, Julian's first instinct was to sever any remaining ties between the two of them.

Besides, Helena already believed the baby was gone.

Letting Hope go wouldn't change anything for her.

But Julian also knew the brutal truth.

That little girl was the only reason Helena had ever wanted to keep breathing.

Yet, in her current state, saving her felt incredibly cruel.

Julian's expression twisted in torment.

"Of course, the final decision is entirely yours," the doctor added, sensing his agonizing hesitation.

After a long, suffocating silence, Julian looked up. "Save her at all costs. Do not stop until her heart officially gives out. As long as there is a chance she can breathe, you fight for her."

"Understood," the doctor nodded respectfully.

Julian didn't say anything else, standing silently outside the glass window, watching the tiny, fragile infant hooked up to a terrifying amount of machines.

She looked so impossibly small.

He closed his eyes and solidified his resolve.

As long as Hope survived this critical window, he would fly back and tell Helena everything.

After giving the medical team strict orders, he booked a late-night flight and headed straight back to Riverton.

Meanwhile, back at the hospital.

When Sebastian walked into the VIP Ward, Janetta had finally calmed down.

She stared at him, her eyes eerily quiet.

It was hard to tell if it was hatred or terror swirling in her gaze.

Before Sebastian could even speak, Janetta broke the silence.

"I won't back down this time, Seb. I won't play the bigger person," she said, her voice trembling with resentment.

"And don't you dare try to defend her. She tried to kill me! She actually tried to kill me!" Janetta hissed, her voice rising to a panicked shout.

She could still see Helena's dead, predatory gaze glaring at her through the windshield.

The sheer hatred in those eyes still made Janetta's blood run cold.

The moment Helena slammed her foot on the gas, the car had charged at her like a wild beast.

Janetta had been paralyzed with fear.

Unlike her own calculated schemes, Helena's attack was completely unhinged.

Helena truly wanted her dead.

How could Janetta not be terrified?

She wasn't about to let a threat like that walk free.

If Helena survived this, Janetta couldn't even fathom what the psycho would try next.

He waited until she was completely losing her grip before he finally spoke.

"She confessed on her own," he said calmly.

"What did you say?" Janetta gasped, convinced she had misheard him.

She was genuinely stunned.

Anyone else in that situation would have fought the charges tooth and nail.

With both Julian and Sebastian backing her, avoiding prison wouldn't have been entirely impossible.

After all, Sebastian had the power to negotiate a deal with her.

Janetta's ultimate goal was still to become his wife.

She knew full well that Sebastian and Helena hadn't finalized their divorce.

There had been zero leaks to the press.

Plus, her contacts at The Civil Affairs Bureau confirmed it.

They were legally still married.

And Sebastian was the one intentionally dragging his feet on the paperwork.

That fact terrified Janetta more than anything.

So hearing that Helena had just surrendered left her completely baffled.
