He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 153

As soon as the thought surfaced, Stella dismissed it.

Jarrod was rational to the point of being cold. He would never do something reckless to Logan in a setting like this.

Besides, she didn't believe Jarrod actually cared about her past.

It was just George Quinn talking nonsense.

Comforted by the logic, Stella relaxed.

The terrace offered a beautiful view, so she wandered over with her drink.

There was a small coffee table and several floral-shaped chairs. She picked one at random and sat down.

Night had fallen, illuminating the estate in a warm glow. The evening breeze carried the crisp chill of early autumn.

Her dress was a bit thin, but the venue had provided shawls for the guests. A waiter walked by, and she asked for one.

Just as she draped it over her shoulders and pulled out her phone, a shadow fell over her.

Assuming it was the waiter returning, she said, "I don't need any more drinks, thank you."

The person paused but didn't leave.

Stella glanced up in confusion, only to find Logan standing there.

He was holding a wine glass, clearly out here for some fresh air as well.

Seeing her, a flicker of surprise crossed his face.

"What are you doing here?" Logan asked.

Stella smiled politely. "I came with Jarrod for his friend's father's birthday. I didn't know you would be here, so no, I'm not following you."

Logan frowned slightly, his tone dismissive. "I wasn't accusing you of that. I just saw it was empty out here and wanted a breather."

Looking at Logan's familiar handsome face, Stella still felt a dull ache in her chest.

Back in college, they used to slip away to quiet spots during parties just to feel the breeze and talk.

Now, he was Skylar's fiancé, and she was already married.
