The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1067

But Aurora’s mother was nothing like Nora—she wasn’t nearly as strong.

Sometimes, Skyler found himself wondering: if only Nora had been a little softer, a little gentler, how much better things might have been.

With someone finally willing to listen, Skyler began reminiscing about the sweet moments he’d once shared with Nora—her quirks, the little things she liked. Even after all these years, he could recall her favorite things with perfect clarity.

It was obvious Skyler had truly loved Nora once.

But just how deep that love went—well, that was anyone’s guess.

Suddenly, Stella spoke up. “And what about Aurora’s mother?”

Skyler paused mid-sentence. After a moment’s hesitation, he said quietly, “Honestly, when it comes to Lisbeth, I always felt more gratitude than love.”

“If it hadn’t been for her saving me back then, I would’ve been dead and buried.”

“She was my savior.”

He looked Stella in the eyes. “Star, it was Lisbeth who rescued me, and it was Lisbeth who stayed by my side, never once leaving, caring for me through everything. We were married for a few years, and she gave birth to my child. Whatever the circumstances, a child is always innocent.”

“You’re a parent now yourself. Surely you understand—no matter what happens, no parent should ever abandon their own child, right?”

Stella said nothing.

So Skyler began to tell her about his life with Lisbeth, the Fisherwoman.
