Chapter 70
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 70<\/p>\n
Stella was completely floored by how easily she had located the venue.<\/p>\n
She took a quick detour to the lawn and found a small army of staff rushing to set up.<\/p>\n
Massive floral arches crafted from hundreds of exotic blooms lined the manicured grass.<\/p>\n
Delicate fairy lights were woven through the arrangements, sparkling like trapped stars. Pristine white tables and chairs were arranged symmetrically, facing a sleek, modern stage.<\/p>\n
Every single detail screamed obscene wealth and anticipation for a spectacular celebration.<\/p>\n
Stella didn’t linger. She spun around and headed straight back to her room.<\/p>\n
She had already checked the layout. The summit’s opening gala was being held in the grand ballroom on the first floor. There was a set of French doors near the back that led directly out to the very lawn where the party was taking place.<\/p>\n
She gripped the jade amulet in her hand. Her plan was simple: wait for the ceremony to start, slip out the back doors, and hand the gift to Logan.<\/p>\n
It was his birthday. He wouldn’t cause a scene and kick her out on his birthday. Maybe he would even talk to her.<\/p>\n
The mere possibility sent a thrill of hope racing through her veins.<\/p>\n
She pulled the white designer dress from her suitcase and slipped it on. She had even hired a resort stylist to come to her room and arrange her hair and makeup to perfectly match the elegant gown.<\/p>\n
Evening fell quickly.<\/p>\n
Stella headed down to the grand ballroom and signed in.<\/p>\n
The seating was strictly assigned by corporate hierarchy, relegating her to a table near the back doors\u2014which suited her perfectly.<\/p>\n
As soon as the organizers and keynote speakers began their endless speeches, Stella slipped out of her chair. She ducked into the powder room for a final check in the mirror, then gripped her clutch and headed toward the lawn.<\/p>\n
