He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 775

Helena didn't refuse.

She didn't want to throw a temper tantrum in front of Skye.

If she did, the little girl would be the one caught in the crossfire.

So, Helena ate her food in silence.

Suddenly, she felt a rush of warmth against her skin.

Sebastian's large hand had somehow slipped under the table, firmly wrapping around hers.

Helena's brow furrowed.

But she couldn't pull away.

In the end, she had no choice but to let him hold her hand as she kept her head down and forced herself to eat.

Throughout the entire meal, they barely exchanged a word.

Skye filled the silence, happily chattering away.

It wasn't until the little girl's stomach was full and her favorite cartoon was about to start that she finally moved.

She hopped off her chair and bounced over to the living room.

The living room was a decent distance from the dining table.

Only then did Helena forcefully yank her hand free.

Sebastian glanced down at his empty palm but didn't press the issue.

"What did you want to talk about earlier?" he asked, taking the initiative.

Helena didn't dodge the question. "Shouldn't you already know?"

"Have you made up your mind?" he countered effortlessly.

"Sebastian, I won't divorce Julian. Moreover, I don't hold the cards when it comes to ending the marriage," she stated concisely.

It was the truth.

Even if she demanded a divorce, Julian would never agree to it.

As long as Julian refused, the marriage remained legally binding.

The Campbell Family certainly wouldn't just stand by and let it happen, either.

Sebastian didn't immediately fire back; he just stared at her with a heavy, calculating gaze.

Being scrutinized so intensely made the hairs on the back of Helena's neck stand up.

She couldn't read his mind.

Just as the suffocating silence pushed her to her breaking point, Sebastian spoke. "I saw Lance this morning."

Her heart hammered violently against her ribs.
