The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 393

A faint, elusive smile touched the corners of the woman’s lips.

She was dressed simply but with unmistakable taste—a crisp white blouse, perfectly tailored, paired with a dark, flowing skirt.

Her long hair was loosely gathered at the nape of her neck, a few strands slipping free to frame her face and lend her an air of effortless elegance.

Every movement radiated a quiet confidence and grace—never ostentatious, always just right.

The young man spoke. “Father’s heard about her too. From what I gather, he’s actually thinking about bringing Raven back into the Williams family. One way or another, she’s caught his attention.”

Lately, Stella had become the talk of Novaris, her name on everyone’s lips. Even the Williams family, all the way in Solmaris, couldn’t help but hear whispers about her.

Aurora Williams asked, “What does Israel think about all this?”

He replied, “If she keeps her head down and doesn’t cause trouble, bringing her back is hardly more than setting one extra place at the table. But after seeing her last time, I doubt she’ll be content to fade quietly into the background.”

His handsome face remained impassive, as if they were discussing a stranger—no anger, no mockery, not even a flicker of emotion. Just a bottomless indifference.

Aurora’s tone was calm and gentle, soothing as a stream. “Raven’s been away so long, I’m sure she’s realized her mistakes by now. She’s always been Father’s concern. We should bring her home.”

“But…” He hesitated, glancing at her. “If she returns, she’ll only make things difficult for you.”

Aurora shook her head lightly. “I was too young, too impulsive back then. It was just an engagement—if she wants him, she can have him.”

Like her name, she was the dawn—radiant and dazzling.

Mention Aurora, and you’d find no shortage of admirers. She was the pride of the Williams family.

Coleman went on, “You’ve always been top of your class, a born scholar. You could’ve gone straight into The Williams Group. But for some reason, Father insisted you study the arts.”

Aurora had always been an academic star—no one could outscore her, not ever. She possessed a rare, almost uncanny talent for the sciences.

Yet Skyler Williams, believing there was no need for a girl to work so hard or push herself so much, insisted Aurora pursue music and the arts instead.

When it came time for college applications, Aurora’s homeroom teacher even met with Skyler, hoping to get her into a top technical university, to let her talent benefit society. Skyler, however, turned him down without a second thought.
