He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 789

Helena knew she didn't actually have a fever.

It was entirely a side effect of the Anxiety Medication she had taken.

She had deliberately upped the dosage, causing her body to physically crash.

That was what triggered the extreme heat.

If she went to the hospital, the doctors would figure it out instantly.

And if they knew, Sebastian would know.

Julian would also get the news.

She refused to invite that kind of trouble into her life.

Beyond that, she possessed a deep-rooted aversion to hospitals.

She had spent far too much time trapped in them in the past.

If she could avoid going, she would.

In that regard, she was exactly like Skye.

There was no reasoning with her.

"Helena!" Sebastian snapped, glaring down at her.

"I said I'm not going. Take me back!" she demanded bluntly.

If he didn't stop the car, she was fully prepared to jump.

When her stubborn streak flared up, absolutely no one could stop her.

She had always been this way.

Once she made up her mind, she wouldn't back down, even if it cost her her life.

In the past, even when he repeatedly promised she could walk away free if she just refused to confess, she hadn't turned back.

And she was even more unyielding now.

Sebastian's frown deepened. "You are going to the hospital right now."

This time, she didn't even bother arguing. Her hand shot toward the door handle, ready to throw it open.

He caught the movement out of the corner of his eye.

He slammed on the brakes.

His expression darkened with absolute fury.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" he demanded, biting off every word.

His rage was palpable, a volatile storm barely held in check.
