Chapter 79
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 79<\/p>\n
Stella was trapped in Jarrod’s arms, their bodies pressed flush against each other.<\/p>\n
When he spoke, she could feel the deep rumble vibrating in his chest.<\/p>\n
Faced with Jarrod’s mockery and biting sarcasm, Stella didn’t know how to respond.<\/p>\n
He was right. What leverage did she have?<\/p>\n
She was nothing more than a pawn the Quinn family had sent to secure an alliance with the Fullers.<\/p>\n
The Quinn family still had countless business deals that entirely relied on the Fuller name.<\/p>\n
Regardless of whether Jarrod had feelings for her or not, he held all the power in this relationship.<\/p>\n
She didn’t have the right to call it off.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Fuller,” Stella softened her voice, trying desperately not to trigger him further, “if you’re angry about my behavior that night, I apologize. But ending this marriage early is better for both of us. That way, Director Huxley can officially take her rightful place by your side.”<\/p>\n
Jarrod continued to grip her chin, his voice dropping to a glacial chill. “How very considerate of you. You’re even worrying about her status now?”<\/p>\n
His grip was agonizing. Stella tried to turn her head away to escape his touch, but he refused to let go.<\/p>\n
Frustration finally bubbled up inside Stella. She looked him dead in the eye. “I’m not being considerate; I’m being selfish. But since you’re clearly furious that I humiliated you, and you already have someone you love, why refuse to end this early? What, did sleeping with me suddenly make you fall for me?”<\/p>\n
There was not a single trace of submissiveness or desire to please in her eyes anymore. Her words even carried a sharp edge of defiance.<\/p>\n
Was this her true nature?<\/p>\n
Jarrod suddenly let out a low laugh, but there was no warmth in it\u2014only a suffocating, impenetrable coldness. “Don’t try to use reverse psychology on me, Stella. You think you can use me and then just burn the bridge when you’re done? Keep dreaming!”<\/p>\n
“This marriage doesn’t begin and end whenever you please!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3367","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
