The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1092

Guests milled around the banquet hall in small clusters, their hushed conversations weaving through the air.

“No surprise it’s Aurora—she excels at everything she does. Remember that contract signing last month? The way she handled all those challenges, calm as ever.”

“In the end, even Johnson—who’s notorious for being tight-fisted—had to give in.”

“Johnson? I’ve heard he’s a shark in negotiations. Hardly anyone ever gets the better of him. And this time, he actually caved?”

“Exactly. That’s what makes Aurora so impressive.”

“Did you hear? The other Williams family heir took over a new company too, but she didn’t just fail—she somehow managed to offend the Pearce family as well.”

“Even if the Pearce family isn’t a business powerhouse, generations of them have served the President of Solmaris. Ticking them off? She must have a death wish.”

“If you ask me, Stella’s nothing but bad luck. Ever since she came back to the Williams family, it’s been nothing but chaos. She’s managed to ruffle feathers in every prominent family—old money, new money, you name it.”

“I heard she’s jealous of all the men vying for Aurora, so she forbade Leonard from pursuing her, even banned him from setting foot in the Williams estate.”

At that, several guests glanced over in surprise. After all, they’d watched the drama unfold on the livestreams.

Someone spoke up, skeptical. “But wasn’t it Leonard who kidnapped Stella first? With a grudge like that, isn’t Stella’s reaction pretty reasonable?”

“So what, is Aurora really supposed to end up with the guy who hurt her own sister?”

Another voice chimed in, dismissive. “Oh, come on. You actually believe all that? Stella’s just playing everyone, making herself the center of attention—as usual.”

“That’s what she’s famous for back in Novaris,” someone agreed. “Always dragging her husband and son into her drama, claiming Rachel Pearce was the other woman and that she only got divorced because she was supposedly flirting around during her marriage.”
