Chapter 267
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 267<\/p>\n
It was a man in his late forties, impeccably dressed in a tailored suit, radiating old money and effortless authority. It was Jarrod’s uncle, Silas Fuller.<\/p>\n
He was stepping out of the ultra-exclusive club accompanied by two other middle-aged men. They were laughing and chatting comfortably, looking every bit like elite power players concluding a highly lucrative evening.<\/p>\n
While Stella wasn’t entirely plugged into the cutthroat inner circles of the corporate world, she recognized the two men from major financial covers. They were heavyweight titans in the industry.<\/p>\n
Silas didn’t oversee the core divisions of The Fuller Group, but he managed several highly profitable subsidiaries. It made perfect sense that he’d be rubbing shoulders with other billionaires in his downtime.<\/p>\n
Perhaps sensing her stare, Silas turned his head and locked eyes with her.<\/p>\n
Stella immediately offered a polite, graceful smile. “Good evening, Silas.”<\/p>\n
Silas gestured for the other two billionaires to go ahead to their waiting cars, then strolled over to Stella with a warm, sophisticated smile.<\/p>\n
“Stella. Out for a night on the town?”<\/p>\n
Stella nodded smoothly. “Just meeting a friend for drinks.”<\/p>\n
Silas gave an approving nod. “I have a premier membership here. Put whatever you and your friend order on my tab tonight.”<\/p>\n
Stella thanked him graciously, playing the perfect socialite.<\/p>\n
“By the way, Stella, what exactly is happening with you and Jarrod?” Silas asked, his tone shifting into genuine, uncle-like concern. “I thought the two of you were finalizing an uncontested settlement. Why am I hearing rumors that Jarrod deployed his litigators this morning?”<\/p>\n
Silas’s intelligence network was absolutely terrifying. He already knew Jarrod had pulled the trigger on the litigation process, which proved he had spies monitoring Jarrod’s every move.<\/p>\n
Stella maintained her flawless smile. “Your information is spot on. Our thirty-day cooling-off period expired, and neither of us wanted to waste another month waiting. Pushing it through pre-litigation mediation is just faster.”<\/p>\n
“Stella, I still don’t quite understand. Why the sudden rush to cut ties?”<\/p>\n
Silas looked at her with an expression of pure, innocent confusion. “Did Jarrod fall for someone else? Did he betray you?”<\/p>\n
Stella couldn’t shake the feeling that Silas was aggressively fishing for dirt. But he already knew every agonizing detail of her disastrous marriage to Jarrod, so what was there left to expose?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3555","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3555","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=3555"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
