Chapter 274
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 274<\/p>\n
She had merely intended to clear the air with Jarrod, so how on earth had things spiraled into this chaotic, borderline scandalous mess?<\/p>\n
Forcing the agonizing awkwardness down, she slowly stepped back out into the living room.<\/p>\n
Jarrod was still sitting exactly where she had left him, his expression already smoothed back into cool composure.<\/p>\n
Just thinking about how close they had been to completely losing control made her face heat up all over again.<\/p>\n
Eager to shatter the thick tension, she took a seat on the adjacent armchair. “What were you doing at the club tonight?” she asked, though her voice betrayed her with a lingering, breathless huskiness.<\/p>\n
Suppressing the raw heat still simmering in his veins, he replied in a rough gravel. “Silas called me. He mentioned running into you and your friend there. I happened to have a business dinner nearby, so I dropped by.”<\/p>\n
So, Silas was the informant.<\/p>\n
Hearing the undeniable rasp in his tone made her own throat suddenly feel impossibly dry. She hastily grabbed the glass of water and took a desperate gulp.<\/p>\n
Sitting up straighter, she looked him in the eye. “Thank you for bringing us home tonight. And thank you for what you said to Lucca,” she offered with absolute sincerity.<\/p>\n
“I also owe you a massive apology for St. Jude\u2019s Island. I dragged your name through the mud.”<\/p>\n
Lucca had deliberately brought up that incident to humiliate her, but the real collateral damage had been Jarrod. The sheer guilt of it gnawed at her.<\/p>\n
“Are you still hopelessly hung up on Logan?” Jarrod asked abruptly.<\/p>\n
Stella stared at his utterly stoic expression, struggling to decipher the motive behind the question. Still, she shook her head firmly. “I told you before. I’m completely over him.”<\/p>\n
“If that’s true, then what I said out there was merely a statement of fact. There’s no need to thank me.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3562","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3562","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=3562"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
