The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1832

Stella didn't insist and simply nodded.

Foreman still had to deal with the share transfer agreement.

After talking with Stella for a little longer, he left again.

Stella watched his retreating back, her eyes deep and unreadable.

She could have stalled for more time, waiting until she understood the situation here before negotiating with him.

She could wait, but Joshua couldn't.

Being declared dead was far more cruel than being missing, and Stella had no idea what was happening on the outside.

But since Foreman had teamed up with Aurora and the others, their plan was surely flawless.

Joshua was still undergoing treatment. She couldn't gamble with his health.

That was why she had signed the transfer agreement so quickly—to let everyone on the outside know that she wasn't dead, that she was still alive.

Despite this, a shadow of gloom still hung over Stella's heart.

The next day, Foreman brought food to Stella again.

Stella observed him carefully, taking in every subtle change in his expression.

However, the more she watched, the heavier her heart became.

There was a hint of joy in the corners of his eyes, a clear sign that his plan was proceeding smoothly.

Stella was frantic with worry, but she couldn't let any of it show on her face.

She didn't argue with Foreman, nor did she try to negotiate terms.

She knew that by involving Deanna's death, Foreman had already passed the point of no return. He wouldn't be swayed by a few simple words.

And while she had signed the agreement, she couldn't pin all her hopes on others.

After she finished eating, Stella asked, "Are you free later? Can you take me for a walk?"

Her cooperation had made Foreman's attitude toward her much gentler.

"Alright. I'll take you for a brief walk in a bit."

He still wanted a future with Stella, so he naturally didn't want to push her too hard.

His only regret was that the toxins in his body still needed some time to clear, preventing him from being intimate with her for now.

One day, Stella suddenly said to Foreman, "I'm kind of craving a steak dinner. Could you bring me one next time you come?"

Foreman wasn't afraid of her making requests; he was afraid of her asking for nothing at all.

"Of course," Foreman immediately agreed. "I'll bring you a steak dinner tomorrow. From that place you and Abby always go to?"

Stella nodded lightly.

-

The next day, Foreman arrived with the steak as promised.

As Stella cut into her steak, she asked, "When can I leave this place?"

At her words, Foreman's expression darkened inexplicably.

Haynes was watching him too closely; he didn't dare make any rash moves.

Any action he took would surely be discovered by Haynes.

Foreman's gaze flickered. "Just a few more days. Once things have cooled down, I'll take you away from here."

Stella then asked, "Did you give the share transfer agreement to Aurora?"
