Chapter 129
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 129<\/p>\n
Stella’s fingers froze over the keyboard.<\/p>\n
A second later, Cassidy sent a follow-up text: [I only heard it through the grapevine, so it might just be a baseless rumor.]<\/p>\n
Stella immediately thought back to the previous night when Jarrod had answered Chloe’s call. She had definitely been crying, and Jarrod had rushed out of the house in an absolute panic.<\/p>\n
Was it because Chloe had just found out she was pregnant?<\/p>\n
If that was true, how could he look Stella in the eye, coldly claim that Chloe wouldn’t be an issue, and ask her to reconsider the divorce?<\/p>\n
Instinctively, Stella opened her chat history with Jarrod. The last message was from him, sent the previous night: [Are you asleep?]<\/p>\n
Since she hadn’t seen it until this morning, she hadn’t bothered replying.<\/p>\n
She typed, “Sorry, I fell asleep last night and I’ve been busy all morning. I heard that Director Huxley…”<\/p>\n
After typing and deleting the sentence three times, nothing felt right. Ultimately, she erased the text box completely and locked her phone.<\/p>\n
Whatever. There was no point in asking.<\/p>\n
At the end of the day, Jarrod had only suggested pausing the divorce because she was a sensible, low-maintenance placeholder wife.<\/p>\n
Demanding answers would only make her look pathetic.<\/p>\n
The afternoon dragged by.<\/p>\n
When it was finally time to clock out, Cassidy linked arms with Stella, and they chatted and laughed their way to the elevator bay.<\/p>\n
The moment they arrived, they ran straight into Chloe’s crony, Fiona, whispering conspiratorially with a few other colleagues.<\/p>\n
The second Fiona spotted Stella, a look of blatant disgust washed over her face. She physically dragged the colleagues next to her out of the way.<\/p>\n
She acted as if Stella were carrying the plague and they were at risk of infection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1617","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
