The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1037

Abby’s eyes lit up. “Joshua, you’re brilliant! That never even occurred to me.”

At the time, both she and Stella had been so focused on Leonard and Sellers, they couldn’t have picked out any of the bodyguards from a lineup. Their faces were a blur—Abby hadn’t bothered to memorize a single detail.

The same went for Stella.

Who would have thought Joshua would notice such a tiny flaw and actually pin down evidence that left Leonard with no way out?

Now that the whole thing was wrapped up perfectly, Abby finally felt she could breathe easy.

She turned to Stella. “Star, unless you need anything else, I’ll be heading off for a while. If you need me, just call. I swear, I’ll be there in a heartbeat.”

Joshua wasn’t just quick on his feet—he was sharp as a tack. Abby had no qualms about leaving things in his hands.

Stella smiled. “Go on, take care of what you need to. If anything comes up, I’ll let you know.”

Abby had barely left when Stella’s phone rang. It was Israel.

She glanced at Joshua. “Come with me to The Williams Group, will you? We might as well get you familiar with the place.”

Joshua nodded without hesitation.

As they settled into the car, Stella remembered how Abby and Joshua had joked about a “reward.”

She pulled out her phone and transferred some money to Joshua.

“Joshua, this is your bonus from yesterday,” she said.

Stella had lost count of just how many cars Joshua had rammed during the whole ordeal, but she’d made a generous estimate—if anything, she was giving him more than he deserved.

On top of that, she wired him another three million as a reward for finding the crucial evidence.

Stella wasn’t strapped for cash these days, but most of her assets were tied up in investments—her liquid funds were actually pretty limited.

After wiring Joshua his reward, she was left with just two hundred thousand in her account.

Two hundred thousand might sound like a lot to most people, but for a family as wealthy as the Williamses, it was pocket change. Sometimes they spent more than that just on a custom-tailored suit.
