He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 159

"What wife? You don't even like her!"

Chloe shouted angrily, "Besides, didn't you two already file for divorce? In just over a week, you'll have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Why are you treating her so well?"

Jarrod's expression cooled significantly. "That's my business. And remember, the favor I agreed to do for you is finished. Do not speak about her in that tone again."

"I'll say whatever I want!"

Chloe aggressively wiped her tears, lifting her chin defiantly. "I hate her, and I'm jealous of her!"

"Jarrod, I don't believe for a second you don't know how I feel about you! I came back to this country for you. Asking you to pretend to be my pursuer was just an excuse—I want to be with you!"

Jarrod frowned deeply, his voice turning glacial. "Chloe, I told you a long time ago. You and your sister are both like younger sisters to me. Given you recently went through a bad breakup, I won't hold this outburst against you today."

"I don't want to be your sister!"

Chloe let out everything she had been holding back. "And I never even liked that guy! If I hadn't been so furious at you last time, I wouldn't have gone out to get drunk, and he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of me!"

The memory of that trip to the US brought a fresh wave of tears to her eyes.

She had originally thought Jarrod bringing her along on the business trip meant he was ready to take things further. When he let the paparazzi snap photos of them at the airport, she believed he was finally ready to make their relationship public.

But when she excitedly went to find him with the photos, she overheard him on the phone with his assistant, ordering him to buy out the local trending searches back in Royal Oaks to maximize the exposure!

His goal was painfully obvious—he wanted Stella to see them.

In that devastating moment, Chloe realized she had merely been a pawn.

Driven by heartbreak and rage, she went to a bar to drown her sorrows, and that was when her ex swooped in...

"You owe me for this!"

She screamed at him, sobbing uncontrollably. "I don't care what your feelings for Stella are. I like you, and I am not letting go!"

Jarrod's frown deepened into a harsh scowl.
