He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 576

Janetta completely missed the thinly veiled insult.

Her comment manipulators were even working in overdrive to boost the post's visibility.

But soon, a newly registered account popped up in the thread.

NotAFan: [Does that mean Ms. Ramirez is just acting out her own real-life drama?]

The comment was instantly buried under an avalanche of automated praise.

Since it was a brand-new account, it barely made a blip on the radar.

But if anyone bothered to look closely, they would notice that the head screenwriter, Charlotte Morgan, had quietly 'liked' that specific comment.

Then there was Helena's own Twitter page.

Helena didn't bat an eye.

This was a long game.

Every piece was perfectly positioned on the board.

All she had to do was wait for the trap to spring.

The filming for Destiny's Choice was scheduled across three locations: Riverton, The Capital, and Coralia.

The grand opening ceremony would kick off in Riverton.

The film's protagonist, Victoria Vance, hailed from Riverton, moved to The Capital for school, and her final, tragic love story unfolded in Coralia.

The production plan was to shoot the first two cities back-to-back before settling down for a long stint in Coralia.

Helena would be attending the opening ceremony.

As the primary investor, her presence was mandatory.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed, pulling her out of her tactical musings.

It was a call from her secretary.

She smoothed her expression and answered calmly.

"Ms. Wallace, the Hayes Corporation has approved the final contract. Mr. Hayes's secretary wants to know when you'll be flying into Riverton to sign it," the secretary reported efficiently.

Helena weighed her options for a few seconds. "I'll fly out tomorrow."

"I'll make the arrangements immediately," the secretary replied.

The line went dead.

Almost the very second she hung up, a WhatsApp notification popped up from Charlotte Morgan.

Charlotte: [Lena, the opening ceremony for Destiny's Choice is next Monday at the Riverton Film Studios.]

Helena: [Got it.]

It was a small accommodation to her routine.

She despised early morning flights.

Helena sent a brief confirmation text, then dragged her suitcase out of the walk-in closet to start packing.

A sudden knock on the bedroom door startled her.

She looked up just as the door swung open, and Julian's towering figure stepped inside.

He had already showered and changed into comfortable loungewear.

"Packing?" he asked casually, glancing at the open suitcase.

"Yeah," Helena replied.

"Let me do it," he offered, stepping in naturally.

She didn't try to stop him.

Julian easily took over the task.

Standing in the spacious closet, he methodically organized her clothes exactly the way she liked them.

"Your undergarments are in this pink bag. The blue one has your business suits—have the hotel staff hang them up as soon as you arrive. The purple bag is for your casual wear. I packed two pairs of shoes: flats for walking and heels for the meetings. If you need a formal gown, just walk into any of our flagship boutiques, and they'll handle it."

Julian gave her a flawless, detailed rundown of her entire itinerary wardrobe.
