Chapter 164
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 164<\/p>\n
“She’s my sister-in-law,” Jasper announced, his chest puffing out with unmistakable pride.<\/p>\n
Perhaps worried that the mob would turn on her, Jarrod rose from his chair and positioned himself securely by Stella’s side.<\/p>\n
Jarrod was already an imposing figure, and the sheer, freezing dominance radiating from him was enough to keep the angry mother at bay. She settled for a disdainful scoff, muttering, “Just some lucky bastard born with a silver spoon, big deal.”<\/p>\n
The other fathers, sensing Stella was a softer target than the intimidating billionaire, instantly turned their wrath onto her.<\/p>\n
“Your kid is throwing his money around to terrorize his classmates! If you don’t put a leash on him now, he’ll grow up to be a complete menace! What are you going to do about this?”<\/p>\n
Jasper opened his mouth to shout back, but Stella placed a firm hand on his shoulder.<\/p>\n
Her voice cut through the room, perfectly even. “First of all, there was no bullying on our end. Jasper stepped up to defend a classmate. Second, playing the victim doesn’t make you right. Wealth has nothing to do with basic human decency. And finally, the internet isn’t some lawless playground. If you decide to spread malicious rumors, you will face the legal consequences.”<\/p>\n
Stella gestured sharply toward the security camera mounted in the corner of the office. “Everything you’ve screamed in this room has been recorded. Don’t even try to twist the narrative.”<\/p>\n
She knew exactly what they were doing\u2014posturing. The second hard evidence was presented, they would crumble.<\/p>\n
“Since you’re so desperate for justice, let’s call the police. We can let law enforcement collect the evidence and uncover the exact truth of what happened. Then we’ll all see who’s really at fault, won’t we?” Stella challenged.<\/p>\n
At her words, one of the bullies scoffed under his breath, “There aren’t even cameras in that hallway.”<\/p>\n
Stella didn’t miss a beat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3452","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3452","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=3452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
