The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1778

Joshua gripped Stella's hand gently. "Star, I'll go crazy. I'll really, truly go crazy."

Their eyes met for a long moment before Stella leaned in and, as if giving a goodnight kiss, gently kissed his forehead.

"Go to sleep, Joshua."

His body had truly reached its limit. Soothed by Stella's presence, Joshua finally drifted off to sleep. He had wanted to take the sofa, but Stella had stopped him.

In truth, Stella wasn't tired at all; she felt perfectly alert. She didn't sleep but instead sat in a chair, quietly reading a book.

Joshua still didn't sleep for long. When he woke up and saw Stella was still there, he finally accepted that he wasn't dreaming. Stella was really back.

After a journey of eighteen hours, Stella was finally back in Solmaris.

A large group was waiting at the airport. Neville, Haynes, Antoney, and Foreman were all there.

Now that Stella and Joshua were together, everyone else managed to restrain their emotions, despite their worry for her. The only exception was Foreman, who could barely conceal his agitation.

He took a few steps forward, his breathing quickening. "Star, have you… have you been okay?"

Stella had already learned from Abby that Foreman had contributed a great deal to the search, barely sleeping at all. People have their biases, and although Foreman had done things that were infuriating, he had never hurt Stella. Because of that, Abby's anger toward him had subsided.
