He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 863

As for Helena, Dr. Lynch wasn't entirely certain.

But his gut feeling was strong.

He suspected she already knew the truth about Skye's identity.

Still, some things Sebastian needed to confirm for himself.

This was all the doctor could do for him.

"I'll find a discrete lab to run the test through a third party. We'll keep the Campbells completely in the dark," Dr. Lynch offered.

"Thank you," he agreed.

"Don't mention it."

The two men quickly ended the call.

Sebastian stood rooted to the spot for a very long time, unable to process the sheer weight of it all.

First, there was the devastating truth of her hatred.

And second, the shocking revelation about Skye.

It felt like God was playing some twisted joke on them.

If Skye really was their daughter...

Then all of Helena's bizarre actions suddenly made perfect sense.

Like her desperate, reckless insistence on pushing for Skye's surgery.

Like the way she treated Skye exactly as a mother would her own child.

Like how the Campbell family was so eager to leave the child in her care.

He clenched his fists in his pockets, standing completely paralyzed.

The truth was practically screaming at him.

For a long time, he didn't utter a single word.

...

At the same time—

Julian was already driving Helena away from the village.

She leaned her head against the headrest, enveloped in total exhaustion.

She had thought escaping would bring her relief.

Instead, she felt physically and emotionally drained.

She couldn't explain why.

A heavy ache pressed against her chest.

Suffocating and agonizing.
