The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 964

Leonard knew about her connection with Antoney. Whether he’d hold it against Antoney, or plot something behind their backs, was still uncertain.

She had to warn Antoney to be careful around him.

Antoney clenched his fists, his voice tight with anger. “Star, I swear I’ll get revenge for you—”

Before he could finish, Stella cut him off.

“That won’t be necessary.” She met Antoney’s gaze, her tone steady. “I’ll be joining The Williams Group soon. I’ll deal with Leonard myself. Right now, neither of us is a match for him, so don’t do anything reckless.”

Antoney nodded. “I understand. Don’t worry, Star—I know what I’m doing.”

Leonard was, after all, the head of the Lerman family. He commanded their resources and influence, something Antoney couldn’t match. Even if Antoney became the leader of the Watson family, there was no way he could act as freely as Leonard, at least not for a while.

Stella replied, “He had some things to take care of. He’s not back yet—”

Her words were interrupted by a soft knock at the door.

A tall, handsome figure stepped quietly into the room.

“Joshua, you’re done already?” Stella greeted him by name, as she always did, even though she knew him well enough by now.

Joshua gave a faint, tired smile. “Yeah. How are you feeling? Any better?”
