Chapter 144
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 144<\/p>\n
Stella stayed to have dinner with her grandmother before heading back to The Sterling Residences.<\/p>\n
On the drive home, she sent Jarrod a quick text: Thank you.<\/p>\n
Regardless of everything else, he was the reason The Quinn Group’s partnership with The Fuller Group was secure.<\/p>\n
Jarrod didn’t reply.<\/p>\n
Stella didn’t bother following up.<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
The next day, Stella went to check out an apartment.<\/p>\n
It was a modest two-bedroom place, but she instantly fell in love with the modern interior design.<\/p>\n
The neighborhood was beautiful and relatively close to The Quinn Group, with easy access to public transit for her daily commute.<\/p>\n
She had listed the Maserati George had given her as part of her dowry, and the sale would just barely cover the cost of the apartment.<\/p>\n
Without hesitation, she put down the deposit.<\/p>\n
By the time her divorce with Jarrod was finalized, the paperwork for the apartment would be done, and she could move right in.<\/p>\n
It was already mid-afternoon by the time she signed the lease and stepped outside.<\/p>\n
The weather was gorgeous\u2014sunny with a warm, gentle breeze. Spotting The Lakeside Park nearby, where people were taking photos and enjoying the sun, she decided to take a stroll.<\/p>\n
The wind carried the sweet scent of blooming flowers. Feeling completely relaxed, Stella stretched her arms and took a deep breath.<\/p>\n
Ever since Logan’s accident, she hadn’t felt this light in years.<\/p>\n
“Excuse me, could you help us get our badminton birdie out of the tree?”<\/p>\n
Two little girls, no older than eight, were looking up at her hopefully.<\/p>\n
Stella glanced up and saw the shuttlecock caught high in the branches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3432","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3432","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=3432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
