Chapter 155
He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 155
Sebastian stared at the woman’s stunningly radiant face, his breathing stalling for several long seconds.
He had never once associated Stella with the elite world of billionaire wives.
Her demeanor and lifestyle didn’t align with high society in the slightest.
Sebastian had always assumed her husband was an ordinary, middle-class man who was selfish, unloving, and neglectful.
He never imagined it would be Jarrod!
Suddenly, the memory of his absurd dreams rushed back, filling him with an indescribable suffocation.
The woman he had fallen for, the woman he had been agonizing over, was his best friend’s wife.
Completely oblivious to Sebastian’s internal collapse, Julian excitedly poked his arm, keeping his voice low. “Look, Seb, did I lie? When has Jarrod ever been this patient with anyone? If anyone still says he doesn’t like her, they’re crazy!”
“Hey, Seb, what’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?” Julian turned to him, finally noticing.
Sebastian snapped out of his daze and shook his head. “I just remembered I left something in the car. I need to go grab it.”
Without another word, he spun around and strode briskly toward the exit.
Confused, Julian called after him, “What’s so important? Just have someone fetch it for you!”
But Sebastian ignored him, not even glancing back as he disappeared into the crowd.
Inside the lounge, Stella slipped her feet into the flat leather shoes.
Though they lacked the height, they fit perfectly and complemented her outfit beautifully.
She rotated her ankles, feeling instant relief.
“They fit perfectly. Thank you, Jarrod.”
She hadn’t expected him to be this observant, even noting her shoe size.
Jarrod stood up, his tone calm. “If you’re uncomfortable in this setting, we can leave early.”
