The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1630

Seeing Joshua's expression, Laurel's eyes widened in stunned silence.

She never thought she would see such a gentle look on Joshua's face.

Laurel stared at him, a strange feeling rising in her heart. She had known Joshua for so many years. They had not only been husband and wife but also partners who fought side-by-side. She had always thought she understood him.

But at this moment, Laurel felt a dizzying sense that the man before her was a complete stranger, as if she had never known him at all.

Stella felt a wave of relief wash over her when she saw that Joshua was unharmed. Her gaze swept over to a slender figure standing not far away.

The woman wore a deep blue evening gown that seemed to catch every hint of moonlight, making her look like something rare and untouchable.

Because she was standing in the shadows, Stella couldn't see her face clearly. But she knew this must be the person Leonard had mentioned—the head of the Quinn family, Laurel Quinn, the one who had given her a massive contract.

Stella said softly, "Joshua, am I interrupting?"

"Not at all," Joshua replied.

Seeing Stella's curious glances toward Laurel, Joshua smiled. "Star, let me introduce you two."

Laurel Quinn, who had been standing in the shadows, stepped forward. The hem of her dress moved like faint ripples on a lake.

Her eyes were deep and icy, devoid of warmth. Her skin was fair, a cool ivory tone like fresh snow. Her features were almost too perfect, all clean lines and angles, with a cutting kind of beauty that even outshone Aurora.

Of all the beautiful women Stella had seen, she was easily one of the most striking. However, the aura she exuded was so cold, like an eternally frozen mountain, that she seemed unapproachable.

Joshua's clean, crisp voice sounded from beside her.

"Star, this is Laurel Quinn, the head of the Quinn family."
