He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 900

"Sebastian, the study has a tatami mat. It's fine for sleeping on temporarily," she stated briskly.

He offered a low hum of agreement.

He wasn't stupid; he knew better than to push his luck right now.

Pushing her over the edge wouldn't end well for him.

Besides, he was only managing to stay here by using Kyle as an excuse.

So he knew exactly when to back off.

Seeing his nod, she finally let out a small breath of relief.

"Helena, can you help me with my homework? The stuff we're learning here seems different from Riverton," the boy asked, looking up at her.

"Sure," she agreed without hesitation.

Honestly, spending time with Kyle was infinitely better than being stuck in a staring contest with Sebastian.

With that settled, she immediately led the boy into the bedroom.

She sat with him while he worked on his assignments.

Outside, Sebastian was completely silent, not making a single sound.

Occasionally, her heart would race, her nerves still strung tight.

She had no idea what he might try next.

She stayed with the boy until he finished his work, coaxed him through his shower, and finally tucked him into bed.

Only then did she step out of the room.

The moment she walked out, she saw him.

Her face instantly darkened.

"Sebastian, don't be so despicable as to use a child as a threat," she cut straight to the chase, her tone sharp.

He stood there with one hand in his pocket; it was obvious he had showered as well.

When she caught the faint, familiar scent of her own body wash clinging to his skin, she froze.

He had showered in her master bathroom!

"Who gave you permission to go into my room?" she demanded.

"Where else was I supposed to shower? Kyle was using the guest bathroom, and you two were in there. It wouldn't have been appropriate for me to walk in, right? And waiting for you to come out before showering would've just made things awkward, don't you think?" he countered smoothly.
