The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1339

"Yes," Leonard confirmed. "It was Stella."

Aurora's brow furrowed. "I can't believe she's still holding a grudge against my brother over what happened."

Leonard knew perfectly well that Stella had leaked Israel's dirty laundry because he had sold out Joshua's location to him. It was a warning. And while it was just a leak, the blow to Israel and the Williams family's reputation was massive. This wasn't just about infidelity; it was about coercing a woman into an abortion. This went beyond a simple affair into a question of character. The Chapmans would undoubtedly call off the engagement. If played right, the public pressure could force Israel to take responsibility for the woman. And she was no pushover. If Israel married her, his life would become a living hell, and she would likely turn the entire Williams household upside down. He had to admit, it was a ruthless move on Stella's part.

"Oh?" Leonard asked, feigning ignorance. "What else did Israel do to Stella?"

Aurora explained the incident with the car.

Leonard let out a derisive snort. "Even if Stella could find all the parts, not just anyone can assemble a Dawnlight. Besides, there are some materials that no one but me can get."

For once, Aurora sounded genuinely regretful. "I didn't want Star to have to replace it, but the Dawnlight really does have special meaning to me. I would have been happy if she could have just assembled something that looked similar."

After all, it was her beloved car, custom-built by Leonard himself. If she had acted completely unbothered by its destruction, she wouldn't be a goddess; she'd be a saint.

Leonard's dark eyes met Aurora's, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. "You can rest easy, Aurora. Even if Stella comes to me, I won't give her the materials."
