The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1813

Sellers asked, "Since the first phase of the plan succeeded, is the second phase to kidnap Stella and make her disappear again?"

Aurora gave a chilling smile. "Stella has already disappeared once, so both she and Joshua will be much more careful.

A kidnapping is necessary, yes, but Stella simply 'disappearing' will always leave Joshua with a sliver of hope.

So this time, we have to take drastic measures. We must make him utterly despair. Only then will his mind shatter, and only then will he have a complete mental breakdown."

Sellers understood the dark implication in her words. "You don't mean you're going to…"

Aurora's smile was full of meaning. "That's right."

Sellers said, "According to my investigation, Haynes keeps a very close watch on Keen. Trying to use Keen in our plan won't be easy."

Aurora seemed to have a plan already in mind and chuckled softly.

"Don't worry, Sellers. I've already thought of a way. When the time comes, I'll just need you to cooperate with me."

In the room, hearing Stella's words, Joshua's hand, which was ladling soup, jerked.

Hot soup splashed onto the back of his hand, but he didn't even seem to notice.

He looked at Stella, his eyes shining brightly.

"Star, what did you say?"

Seeing he was burned, Stella quickly stood up, grabbed a wet napkin from the table, and wiped the hot soup from his hand.

She asked with a frown, "Joshua, are you okay?"

Joshua instinctively grasped her hand, his gaze intense as he stared at her.

"Star, what did you just say?"

Stella had thought about teasing him, but seeing the mix of nervousness and hope in his eyes, her heart softened.

She said softly, "Joshua, let's get married."

Joshua's voice was hoarse. "Star, you're not joking, are you?"
