Chapter 217
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 217<\/p>\n
Before Stella could even process what was happening, Jarrod swung his long leg out and delivered a brutal kick squarely into the man’s stomach.<\/p>\n
Caught completely off guard, the man collapsed onto the marble floor, curling into a tight ball as a pained, guttural groan tore from his throat.<\/p>\n
Seeing Jarrod, the woman’s red-rimmed eyes instantly welled with fresh tears. She looked desperate to throw herself into his arms for protection, but catching herself at the last second, she fought down the urge.<\/p>\n
Instead, she stood there weeping quietly, frantically trying to smooth down her disheveled hair and fix her ruined clothes.<\/p>\n
Stella finally got a clear look at her face. It was Yvette.<\/p>\n
They had just formally met at the hospital the other day.<\/p>\n
Stella had never expected their next encounter to be in the middle of a public brawl.<\/p>\n
The man on the floor had finally recovered enough breath to speak. Groaning, he dragged himself up and pointed a trembling finger at Jarrod, ready to unleash a string of obscenities. “You sick son of a\u2014”<\/p>\n
But halfway through, a look of horrifying realization washed over the man’s face. Recognizing exactly who had just kicked him, he violently swallowed the rest of his insult.<\/p>\n
Clutching his bruised ribs, he resorted to a pathetic attempt at posturing. “So what if you’re a Fuller? I’m her husband! This is a domestic dispute, you have no right to put your hands on me!”<\/p>\n
Jarrod completely ignored his existence, turning his sharp gaze onto Yvette. “What happened?”<\/p>\n
Yvette’s eyes were bloodshot, and she clearly had a thousand grievances she wanted to air, but she simply shook her head. “It’s nothing, Jarrod. Just a silly argument.”<\/p>\n
Her husband, instantly emboldened by her submission, barked, “You hear that?! You think you own Royal Oaks, but stay out of our marriage! Back off and mind your own business…”<\/p>\n
Jarrod shifted his freezing glare toward the man. The absolute murder in his eyes silenced the husband instantly. Swallowing hard, the man grabbed Yvette’s arm. “Let’s go!”<\/p>\n
Yvette threw a fragile, pleading look at Jarrod, then noticed Stella standing a few feet away. Humiliation washed over her face as she lowered her eyes, turning to leave with her abusive husband.<\/p>\n
Jarrod reached out and blocked her path. “You’re hurt. Go see a doctor.”<\/p>\n
Turning his lethal gaze toward the restaurant manager, who had just rushed over, Jarrod ordered coldly, “Someone is assaulting a woman in your lobby and causing a scene. Why haven’t you thrown him out?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3505","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3505","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=3505"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
