He Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 218

Yvette's frail, worried voice drifted from behind.

"She won't be. She's reasonable," Jarrod replied smoothly. "The car is here. Get in."

...

When Stella arrived at the private room, Skylar was already waiting.

To Stella's surprise, Skylar wasn't alone. Two men dressed in sharp business suits were seated next to her.

Skylar stood up immediately, offering a warm smile as she introduced them. They were the senior procurement executives from Vance Manufacturing, fully in charge of vendor selection.

Stella had assumed this would just be a casual lunch between the two of them. She hadn't expected Skylar to bring this level of genuine commitment, directly hauling the decision-makers into the room.

"Don't stress, this isn't a formal pitch meeting. They just happened to be in the area, so I asked them to swing by and introduce themselves. The actual contract negotiations will be handled directly between your teams later," Skylar explained cheerfully.

Stella expressed her sincere gratitude to Skylar, shook hands with the two executives, and provided a brief introduction of herself and her brand.

The private dining room Skylar booked was incredibly luxurious. Aside from the main dining table, there was a plush lounge area with sofas and a tea-tasting setup.

Since the food hadn't arrived yet, the group settled into the lounge area.

The executives outlined their primary requirements for the corporate uniforms, stressing repeatedly that durability and premium quality were their top priorities.

"Ms. Vance mentioned that SD Apparel is a legacy brand with exceptional quality control, which is why she strongly recommended you to us."

Stella thanked them graciously with a professional smile, inviting them to conduct an official site inspection of their factory whenever they were available.

Once the lavish meal was served, they moved over to the dining table and continued their discussion.

True to her word, Skylar only acted as the bridge. Throughout the entire business conversation, she completely refrained from offering any personal opinions or swaying the executives.

Toward the end of the meal, the two executives checked their watches, apologized for having to rush back for an emergency board meeting, and formally exchanged business cards with Stella, promising to schedule a follow-up call.

It was only then that Stella realized they had specifically carved out time from a packed schedule just to meet her.
