Since Stella also had some loose ends to tie up, she decided to stay and keep him company.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We won&#8217;t go out for dinner tonight, I&#8217;ll just order something in,&#8221; Sebastian offered.<\/p>\n<p>Stella laughed. &#8220;You&#8217;re the one pulling overtime, I can&#8217;t let you pay for dinner too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Just as she was about to ask what he was in the mood to eat, her phone started ringing.<\/p>\n<p>She glanced at the screen and saw it was Mrs. Whitby.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mrs. Whitby, is everything alright?&#8221; Stella asked as she picked up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mrs. Fuller, do you have any other plans tonight? Around what time will you be coming home?&#8221; the housekeeper asked.<\/p>\n<p>Stella found the question a bit odd. Mrs. Whitby almost never inquired about her schedule. Why the sudden interest today?<\/p>\n<p>Still, she answered honestly, &#8220;I have some things to finish up at the factory. I&#8217;ll be home late.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Whitby paused. &#8220;Will it be around the same time as yesterday?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not sure yet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There was another slight hesitation before Mrs. Whitby asked, &#8220;Have you eaten yet? Should I send some food over for you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No need, I&#8217;m going to order something here. I have to go now, talk to you later,&#8221; Stella said before hanging up.<\/p>\n<p>Sitting nearby, Sebastian had listened to her side of the conversation. He knew immediately that Jarrod had undoubtedly forced the housekeeper to make that call.<\/p>\n<p>The thought dragged Sebastian&#8217;s mind back to the previous morning.<\/p>\n<p>Julian had called, inviting him to the hospital to help welcome Jarrod upon his discharge, but Sebastian had brushed him off with a work excuse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3498","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3498","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=3498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
