The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1909

Marvin was a tough kid; he rarely ever cried.

Hearing his tearful voice, Stella immediately asked, "Marvin, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Marvin sniffled, his tone utterly heartbroken. "Stella, I think they're going to take me away. And if they do, I might never get to see you again..."

Stella's voice dropped. "Take you away? Take you where?"

"I don't know," Marvin cried. "A bunch of strangers have been showing up at the house lately. They said my dad isn't my real dad, and that they're my biological father's family. They said they want to take me back to my 'real' home.

Dad doesn't want me to go, so those people just keep coming to the house every single day to harass him..."

He choked back a sob.

"I don't want to go, but I don't want to cause trouble for Dad either. If he really isn't my real dad, then I guess I should just go with them."

Stella's eye twitched.

His biological father's family... wouldn't that be the Gardners?

After all these years, why would the Gardners suddenly show up on their doorstep demanding the child?

"Marvin, don't cry," Stella said quickly. "I'm coming over right now."

Worried that the other side might have brought a small army, Stella deliberately called Wilbur and Gideon, instructing them to bring along a group of highly trained bodyguards.

As her status within The Williams Group had skyrocketed, so had her personal power and influence.

Moreover, Solmaris was firmly under the Williams family's control. In this city, she carried far more weight than Neville ever could.

Neville had gone out of his way to help her in the past; it was high time she returned the favor.

Stella and her men quickly arrived at the Connolly residence.

She had expected to find a group of thugs trying to drag Marvin away by force.

However, when she took in the scene at the front door, she was completely stunned.

The person trying to take Marvin wasn't a mob of enforcers, but an elderly woman.
