He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 357

But the hallway was so dead silent that Janetta heard every single word with horrifying clarity.

"The day I overheard Janetta's Doctor, he mentioned they actually found a perfectly matching cornea right here in the hospital. But for some reason, they never gave it to her."

"And it was Mr. Hayes who personally rejected the transplant."

"Wait... could the match be... Helena's?"

"Shhh! Keep your voice down. We're not supposed to know anything about that."

...

The nurses' voices gradually faded as they walked down the corridor.

But the bombshell they had just dropped left Janetta completely paralyzed.

It was pure, unadulterated shock.

She had felt that something was seriously wrong with her vision.

But everyone had sworn up and down that she was fine.

Having the brutal truth thrust upon her like this shattered her completely.

But the most terrifying part was the realization.

She instantly deduced that the perfect cornea match belonged to Helena.

Helena was the only person on earth who could make Sebastian hesitate.

More accurately, the *current* version of Helena made him hesitate.

If this had been the past, he wouldn't have blinked before carving it out of her.

Somewhere along the line, without anyone noticing, everything had changed.

It hit Janetta with devastating force.

She absolutely refused to go blind.

She had to get that cornea.

Her first instinct was to confront Sebastian and demand answers.

She pulled out her phone and dialed his number immediately.

It rang for an agonizingly long time before he finally picked up.

The delay only fed her spiraling panic.

He used to answer her calls on the very first ring.

Everything was different now.

Even though he still showed up every time she threw a fit...

She hadn't missed the fleeting flashes of sheer annoyance in his eyes.

And she absolutely refused to let anything jeopardize her future now.

Sebastian fell deathly silent on the other end of the line.

That silence confirmed everything.

Her tone instantly grew aggressive, fueled by raw desperation.

"The person providing the cornea... it's Helena, isn't it?"

She threw the question at him without an ounce of hesitation.

"Who told you that?" Sebastian didn't answer her, his voice remaining unnervingly calm.

"So it is true!" she shrieked, her worst fears validated.

Sebastian didn't say a word.

Janetta burst into loud, theatrical sobs. "Seb, how could you do this to me? I waited ten years for you! I willingly let you misunderstand me and lived in agony just so I wouldn't be a burden to you!"

"When you married her, I swallowed my pride and accepted it. Even when you thought the worst of me, I kept my mouth shut so you wouldn't be caught in the middle!"

"You promised me you would divorce her. But look at us now! You're still legally bound to her!"

"Yes, you claim it's all about the equity shares. But is it really? Are you sure there isn't another reason?"

Janetta sounded like a woman completely unhinged.
