He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 63

Stella nodded evasively. "Yeah. Just messing around."

Jarrod cast a brief glance at the White Jade Peace Knot Amulet in her hands but didn't press the issue. He turned and headed into the bathroom.

After breakfast, they walked out the door together.

Jarrod didn't offer her a ride, but instead asked, "You don't have a driver's license?"

She absolutely did.

Back when she got married, George Quinn had purchased a Maserati as part of her dowry just to keep up appearances.

But Stella found the car far too flashy, and the insurance and maintenance costs were exorbitant.

On her modest salary, it was a financial drain she couldn't justify.

And if she asked George to cover it, Sylvia Quinn would undoubtedly make a fuss behind her back.

So, Stella let the sports car gather dust in the garage while she took cabs.

Whenever she had enough time, she simply rode the subway.

At Jarrod's question, she offered a polite smile. "I'm just a terrible driver. I don't really like being behind the wheel."

"Should I assign you a chauffeur?" he offered.

Stella felt like Jarrod was talking entirely too much today.

He was actually offering her a private driver?

"Thank you, Mr. Fuller, but that won't be necessary."

She was just a mid-level team leader. If she started showing up to the office in a chauffeured luxury car, the rumors would be unbearable.

"I have to get going, Mr. Fuller. See you."

With that, she hurried away.

...

At work that day, Stella engaged in another grueling round of negotiations with the channel partners. Progress was practically nonexistent.
