The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1728

Aurora seemed to gradually come to her senses. She turned her head and glanced at Queenie. "Queenie, you're here."

That single look made Queenie feel a profound sense of unfamiliarity. She had a feeling that the elegant and noble Aurora she once knew had changed in some fundamental way.

It was normal for Aurora to have changed after returning from a place like the Delta. But the emotional outburst Queenie had expected wasn't there. Aurora was unnervingly calm. Even her eyes seemed deeper than before, as if shrouded in a thin mist that made it impossible to discern her true emotions. Moreover, Aurora's entire demeanor had shifted. There was a newfound... seductiveness and allure in her every move. This was a look the old Aurora would never have had.

Queenie thought about the long time Aurora had spent in the Delta and almost instantly guessed what she must have endured. Aurora was young and beautiful, with a distinguished air that ordinary girls lacked. In a place like that, it was nearly impossible for her to have escaped unscathed.

Queenie had wanted to ask Aurora about her experience, but with this realization, her expression flickered with uncertainty, and she found she didn't dare to ask.

However, Aurora seemed to read her mind. "We've been best friends for years," she said faintly. "If you want to ask something, just ask. You don't have to hold back."

In the past, Queenie would have asked without hesitation. But now, she could clearly sense the change in Aurora and felt an inexplicable sense of awe mixed with fear. Aurora's presence had become far more formidable than before.

If the old Aurora was a goddess, aloof and untouched by the world but not particularly aggressive, the Aurora of today was like a queen dragged down from the heavens into the mortal realm. Though she no longer had the untouchable elegance she once possessed, she now radiated an overwhelming power.
