He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 407

A month later, the verdicts for Silas and Yvette were officially handed down. Silas was convicted of kidnapping, endangering public safety, and attempted murder; he was sentenced to life in prison. Yvette was convicted of attempted murder and soliciting a hitman to assault Stella, receiving an eighteen-year sentence.

With Jarrod's injuries almost entirely healed, he took Stella to visit the remote mountain temple where his father resided. Upon hearing the news of Silas's sentence, Benedict Fuller sat in profound silence, his prayer beads slipping slowly through his fingers. Ultimately, his only response was a long, heavy sigh.

A few days later, Jarrod received word that his father had passed away. Benedict departed peacefully and quietly, as if he had finally shed all earthly sins and lingering regrets.

The following spring, as the world burst into bloom, Jarrod and Stella held a breathtakingly romantic and extravagant wedding, inviting virtually everyone they knew.

Except for Sebastian and Logan.

Even though both men had long since left Royal Oaks, Jarrod was still irrationally paranoid that one of them might show up to crash the wedding. Even if the chance was one in a million, he was taking zero risks.

On the eve of the wedding, Stella received a package from Logan. Inside was a pair of exquisitely translucent White Jade Peace Knot Amulets, accompanied by a handwritten note.

[Starrie, I carved and polished these myself. I pray that you and the man you love enjoy a lifetime of peace and safety. Take my blessing and live happily ever after.]

Years ago, for Logan's birthday, Stella had bought him a similar amulet, though it was never delivered. She never expected to receive a pair hand-crafted by Logan at a moment like this.

Holding the delicate card, Stella couldn't help but marvel at the twists of fate. She sent Logan a text message, thanking him with utmost sincerity.

The moment she set her phone down, another courier arrived bearing an incredibly luxurious gift box.

Stella opened it and found a breathtakingly unique gown nestled inside.

It flawlessly merged the timeless elegance of Heritage Silkwork with striking modern haute couture elements. The hem was dusted with shimmering, starlit embroidery. From a distance, it looked exactly like a delicate, ethereal pear blossom in full bloom.

At the bottom of the box, tucked beneath a stack of original design sketches, was a crisp card: [May your years be filled with joy, may you always be dressed in radiance, and may you be fiercely cherished for the rest of your life. Your friend, Sebastian.]

Stella unlocked her phone and saw a voice memo from Sebastian.
