He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 624

"I'll go see him later," Sebastian replied coldly.

The butler let out a massive sigh of relief.

Hanging up the phone, Sebastian walked quietly toward Helena.

She had just finished her call as well.

She looked up at him.

A sudden, heavy silence fell over the living room, charged with a strange, crackling tension between them.

Before she could speak, she felt an iron grip wrap around her waist.

He hauled her flush against his chest.

Without a word, he dipped his head and captured her lips.

Instinctively, she wanted to fight him off; the sheer revulsion inside her was undeniable.

But given the game she was playing, she forced herself to tilt her head and cooperate.

He didn't deepen the kiss, merely tasting her briefly before pulling back.

His low, magnetic voice brushed against her ear.

"You don't eat onions and green peppers? I saw you pick them all out earlier," he remarked casually.

It sounded like simple, idle chatter.

She didn't overthink it. "Allergic."

She offered the truth without hesitation.

She answered so plainly because she was absolutely certain of one thing:

He would never remember tiny details like that.

And for her, telling the truth was simply practical.

She had no intention of landing herself in the hospital.

He hummed in response. "I'll keep that in mind. Next time I cook, I'll leave out the things you can't eat."

But staring down at her face, her immediate confession only fueled his mounting suspicions.

His predatory gaze darkened.

She noticed the shift.

But before she could process what it meant, he leaned down and claimed her mouth again.

Unlike the fleeting kiss from moments before, this one was entirely dominant.

His aggressive approach instantly triggered her defiance.

Without a second thought, she planted her hands flat against his chest to shove him away.

Smoothly, his large hands clamped down on her wrists, lifting them out of the way.
