He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 172

No wonder Jarrod had looked so furious that night. When Stella showed up later, he had practically been grinding his teeth. If Jarrod didn't have feelings for her, there was no way he would have reacted so erratically!

Idiot! Julian cursed his own stupidity. How had he missed something so glaringly obvious until now?

"Jarrod, are you saying the main reason Stella is pushing for this divorce is because she isn't over her ex?"

Julian asked, his tone suddenly far more cautious as he navigated the sensitive waters. "So... what's your next move?"

Jarrod downed the rest of his drink. He thought back to a few days ago at the Jenson estate, remembering how frantically Stella had defended Logan Lennox, terrified that Jarrod would go after him.

And then last night—the absolute coldness in her eyes when she insisted Logan wasn't that kind of man before turning her back on him completely.

"It's just a divorce. It's no big deal." Jarrod let out a low scoff. "It's not like she's the only woman in the world for me."

Sebastian pushed the door open just in time to catch Jarrod's declaration.

He paused mid-step. His face remained completely impassive, but internally, a massive wave of relief washed over him. The heavy tension that had been sitting on his chest evaporated.

"Jarrod, what are you even saying?"

Julian felt that things were spiraling in the wrong direction, but he was still processing the bombshell information and couldn't piece together a proper argument.

Running a hand through his hair, he turned to the newcomer. "Seb, you heard him, right? Talk some sense into the man!"

Sebastian took a seat next to Jarrod and refilled his glass. "Jarrod, have you made your final decision?"

Jarrod swirled the amber liquid in his glass. "Do I look like the type to hesitate?"

Having been friends for years, Sebastian knew Jarrod was a man of his word.

But he could also see that Jarrod clearly had deep feelings for Stella.

If Jarrod had been serious about swallowing his pride and saving his marriage, Sebastian would have agonizingly buried his own feelings for her.
