He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 582

Sebastian didn't bring up Julian again.

Having been married to him for seven years, she knew his limits.

She knew he wouldn't sink low enough to badmouth another man over something like this.

He was ruthless, not petty or vulgar.

Helena stayed silent.

He drove quietly through the toll booth.

Meanwhile, the rain in Riverton was only getting heavier, the wind picking up a vicious howl.

Her brow furrowed again.

Even though she had been gone for five years, she still vividly remembered Riverton's notoriously erratic weather.

The storms here were terrifying.

Relentless.

And this was the worst season for them.

What the forecast called a light drizzle could morph into a downpour at a moment's notice.

Sebastian had clearly noticed it too.

Emergency red alerts were blaring across both the radio and local news apps.

Authorities were urging cars and pedestrians to seek shelter.

Widespread rainfall had already started flooding low-lying areas in The Old District.

Which was exactly where Helena's hotel was located.

Before she could suggest a change of plans, a noise interrupted them.

Sebastian's phone vibrated.

He glanced at the screen and immediately answered.

She caught his movement out of the corner of her eye.

She couldn't see the caller ID, but her gut told her it was Janetta Ramirez.

It seemed only Janetta could make him answer so urgently.

She lowered her gaze and kept to herself.

"Where is your mommy?" his deep voice echoed, laced with faint displeasure.

On the other end was Kyle Hayes, sounding incredibly pathetic.

"Mommy said she had to go," the boy whimpered. "So it's just me and the nanny at home. It's raining really hard outside, and I'm scared. Daddy, when are you coming back?"
