The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 252

Stella didn't rush him. She knew Haynes was already considering the proposal.

He could spend a fortune on a house for Rachel, so what was a billion dollars when it came to rescuing Jasper and treating Rachel’s illness?

After what seemed like an eternity, Haynes finally broke the silence with a low, cool voice. "Alright."

Stella nodded, unfazed. "Then, Mr. O'Brien, I suppose you’ll have to draft a new divorce agreement."

Haynes looked at her deeply. "You don’t seem surprised that I agreed, and you already had the divorce papers prepared before I even got here."

Stella lifted her gaze, smiling slightly. "Mr. O'Brien has always been devoted to Mr. Wilkinson and loyal to Ms. Pearce. With conditions this straightforward, there was no reason for you to refuse."

Haynes said nothing more and picked up his phone to call Benson.

About half an hour later, Benson walked in with several documents. "Mr. O'Brien, here are the files you requested."

Haynes, with an indifferent expression, instructed, "Give them to her."

Benson gave the documents to Stella. They included a divorce settlement and a letter of reconciliation.

The divorce agreement was simple—Keen O'Brien would remain with the O'Brien family, and Haynes would compensate Stella with a billion dollars.

Haynes's expression turned colder. "Stella, if you deceive me, not even Neville Connolly could protect you."

Stella tucked away her signed divorce agreement. "Don’t worry. If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t ask for such a sum."

"However, I can persuade Mr. Burton to treat Rachel, but Rachel must fulfill her promise to Mr. Burton by staying here for a week."

Haynes’s eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint appearing in them. "And what if Mr. Burton is unsatisfied and refuses to treat her?"

Stella replied, "Rest assured, Mr. O'Brien. Since Mr. Burton has agreed to treat Rachel, as long as Ms. Pearce is willing to come, he won’t go back on his word. Of course..."
