He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 597

She hadn't saved his number in her contacts.

But the memory of those digits was burned into her mind, impossible to forget even if she tried.

Almost out of pure muscle memory, she dialed his phone.

The moment the line connected, she fell silent.

His deep, magnetic voice echoed through the speaker. "Ms. Wallace, to what do I owe the pleasure of a personal call?"

There was a clear hint of amusement in his tone.

She picked up on it instantly.

Remaining unfazed, she replied coolly, "You practically forced my hand, Mr. Hayes. Is there really a need for such a patronizing question?"

Her sharp retort was met with a low chuckle.

He was clearly in an excellent mood.

"I still haven't taken you out for dinner," he suddenly suggested. "That storm last night ruined our plans."

"Sure," she agreed without hesitation.

"I'll come pick you up," he said simply.

She offered no objections, giving a brief murmur of assent.

He ended the call.

She gathered her things, changed into a fresh outfit, and left the office with perfect composure.

Her assistant wisely kept her questions to herself.

As she stepped off the elevator, her phone buzzed with a message from him.

His car was already parked in the building's underground garage.

Since IGM had a branch office in Riverton, this was naturally her company's parking structure.

She made her way down quietly, avoiding any unwanted attention.

He had swapped his usual ride for a sleek, black sports car—flashy yet aggressively modern.

When she caught sight of the license plate, her brows furrowed.

It was far too conspicuous.

Everyone in Riverton knew this was Sebastian's Maybach.

Outwardly, however, she maintained her calm demeanor as she approached the vehicle.

He didn't step out to greet her.

IGM was located in a shared corporate tower, surrounded by countless other firms.
