Chapter 211
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 211<\/p>\n
It was Jarrod.<\/p>\n
His right arm was secured in a sling, and he was casually scrolling through his phone with his left hand.<\/p>\n
Standing there under the dim amber glow of the streetlights, dressed in a surprisingly light casual outfit, the cool night breeze whipping around him, he gave off a sudden, inexplicable aura of deep isolation.<\/p>\n
What was he doing here? Just this morning, he had stormed off in a cold rage.<\/p>\n
And he hadn’t texted or called to give her a heads-up that he was coming to SD Apparel either.<\/p>\n
As she was trying to piece it together, Jarrod seemed to feel her gaze and lifted his head, locking eyes with her.<\/p>\n
His handsome face was utterly impassive, his dark eyes masking whatever emotions were churning beneath the surface.<\/p>\n
Stella walked over to him and asked, “Jarrod, what are you doing here?”<\/p>\n
Slipping his phone into his pocket, he replied with forced nonchalance, “Just passing by.”<\/p>\n
The SD Apparel factory was located far from the downtown core. Even if he had gone to The Fuller Group, there was no logical route that would make this a “passing by” detour.<\/p>\n
Recalling the strange phone call from Mrs. Whitby earlier, it was almost certainly Jarrod pulling the strings.<\/p>\n
And now, him standing out here\u2014he had obviously come specifically to wait for her to get off work.<\/p>\n
But since he wanted to play the “passing by” card, Stella wasn’t about to call him out on it.<\/p>\n
“Let’s get in the car then, it’s freezing out here,” she urged softly.<\/p>\n
Jarrod didn’t say a word, simply pulling the back door open for her.<\/p>\n
Once settled inside, Stella suddenly remembered Sebastian. She pulled out her phone to call him and let him know she was leaving, only to see a new message from him pop up on the screen.<\/p>\n
[Stella, I just realized there’s a detail on one of the drafts I need to revise, so I won’t be able to drive you back. I’m so sorry.]<\/p>\n
Stella quickly typed back: [No problem at all. I was actually just about to tell you: I’ve got a ride, so you don’t need to drive me.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3499","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3499","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=3499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
