The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 745

Joshua shrugged. “It’s nothing. I just thought something looked familiar, like we’ve met before somewhere.”

Stella glanced at him. “Are you starting to get your memory back?”

Joshua was silent for a few moments. “Sometimes I have these strange, jumbled dreams, but it’s hard to make sense of them or connect the pieces.”

Stella offered a small, encouraging smile. “That’s still a good sign. It means your memory is showing signs of recovery. Don’t rush it—once the memories start to resurface, the rest usually follows pretty quickly.”

They had only just begun their conversation when Haynes, who was showing Keen how to use a bow, noticed Joshua had returned. His brow furrowed in irritation.

He turned to Keen. “Keen, practice on your own for a bit. I’ll be back to show you some new techniques later.”

Keen nodded obediently, eager to keep practicing.

Haynes strode over to Stella and Joshua.

As soon as Stella saw Haynes approaching, her expression cooled instantly.

In five years of marriage, they had hardly gone out together at all. Now that they were divorced, he suddenly seemed to have plenty of free time—always finding excuses to show up in her life.

Joshua, picking up on the tension, said tactfully, “Ms. Cameron, I’ll go help Keen with his archery.”

“Go ahead,” Stella replied.

Once Joshua had left, Stella lowered her gaze to her phone, pretending Haynes didn’t exist.

Suddenly, a bottle of water appeared in front of her.

She looked up to see Haynes holding it out, the cap already twisted off.

“Have some water,” he offered.

Stella’s voice was cool. “No, thank you.”

Haynes sat down across from her. “Star, do you really have to be so distant with me?”

She shot him an odd look. “We’re divorced, Haynes. What did you expect? That I’d be warm and welcoming?”

Haynes seemed about to reply, but a sudden cheer and round of applause erupted from Keen’s direction.
