He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 836

It was happening right now.

"Helena, you need to calm down. Donovan spoke out of anger," Lance quickly reassured her.

Helena stood perfectly still, her voice eerily flat. "He's right. It is my fault."

Lance frowned. "Don't torture yourself. Nothing bad will happen to her in Coralia. If your theory is right and Janetta is targeting you, she won't actually harm Skye. Besides, the Everett family has stepped in."

Helena remained silent.

The Everetts' sphere of influence was heavily concentrated in the Capital.

Helena remained standing there, completely motionless.

Lance stayed quietly by her side.

The moment Julian's plane touched down, he raced straight toward the estate.

The tension in the air was stretched to its absolute breaking point.
