The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2072

It took over six months for the brutal media storm around her to finally die down.

Now, even if Queenie didn't want to admit it, she knew she was completely outmatched.

She had plotted for three years to ruin Stella's reputation, only for Stella to casually flick a domino that decimated her entire life.

No wonder Jonathan and Aurora were so terrified of her.

Queenie's only play was to temporarily ally with Aurora. They would team up to destroy Stella, and once the dust settled, Queenie would stab Aurora in the back. Two birds, one stone.

Stella smiled faintly, not bothering to deny it.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Queenie glared at her coldly. "You only sit at the head of the table because you're a thief, Stella. To Skyler, no matter how brilliant you are, you'll never be worth a fraction of Aurora."

A toxic, triumphant smirk curled Queenie's lips.

"Oh, did you not hear? At Shay's birthday party today, Skyler is transferring five percent of The Williams Group equity to her."

Because Queenie despised the Williams family and refused to mentally accept her role as Jonathan's wife, she never referred to Skyler as 'Father' in private.

Stella didn't even blink. Her expression remained completely undisturbed.

"Thanks for the heads-up," she replied smoothly. "But look at the time. Shall we walk and talk?"

Queenie had only approached her to ruin her day.

The sheer sight of Stella made her physically ill, so there was no way she was going to walk into the venue with her.

Queenie sneered, throwing out one last desperate barb.
